• [an apparition confronts Nardo] 

  Apparition : So, you couldn't stay away, could you? The criminal always returns to the scene of the crime.

  Nardo : Who... who are you?

  Apparition : You don't remember me, but twenty years ago in this very house I was a livin' being. I had flesh on my bones, blood flowed through my veins, but you... you... you scared the health out of me.

  Nardo : I was never in this house until tonight. You have made a mistake!

  Apparition : It is YOU who has made the mistake, my friend. For years you have wantonly taken the lives of millions; so, tonight I am going to take yours.
