    FLOOR Elvira/Elura's lover's head hits the floor with a THUD and bounces off a few feet. We follow the head as it rolls across the floor and comes to rest a few feet away. CLOSE-UP - ELURA/ELVIRA Her eyes wide with terror, she looks at the severed head, then at the dark stranger and gulps. As Elura/Elvira expected, the stranger turns his rage on her, grabbing her arm and yanking her out of bed. CUT TO: INT. CASTLE TORTURE CHAMBER - A FEW MOMENTS LATER The SOUND OF A STEEL TROWEL can be heard as it is scraped over brick and mortar. By flickering torchlight/ the stranger places a brick in a nearly completed wall. CLOSER Through and opening in the wall, we see Elura/Elvira. She struggles to free herself from her shackles. STRANGER'S POV ELVIRA/ELURA (MOUTHING) No, please! Help me! Help me!!! ELURA/ELVIRA'S POV - STRANGER Without the audience seeing his face, he places the second to last brick in its' place. We get a good look at the doorway being bricked up. It has a decorative arch over it, with unforgettable carvings on each side of skeletons wearing hooded robes and carrying sickles. The wall itself is stone, the doorway now, almost completely filled in with brick. CLOSE-UP - ELURA/ELVIRA'S EYES FRAMED BY BRICKS. As the final brick is set in place, we HEAR her BLOODCURDLING SCREAM. ELURA/ELVIRA'S POV - BRICK WALL
