Florence Tanner
- Florence Tanner: [speaking to Benjamin Fischer while temporarily possessed by Belasco] Who the hell do you think you are, you bastard? You might have been hot stuff when you were fifteen, but now you're shit!
- Dr. Lionel Barrett: I get the impression that you know quite a bit about Belasco. Do you mind sharing it with us?
- Benjamin Franklin Fischer: His first name was Emeric. He was born on March the 23rd, 1879. He was the illegitimate son of an American munitions maker.
- Ann Barrett: What did he look like?
- Benjamin Franklin Fischer: "His was a frightening visage, like the face of a demon that had taken on some human aspect."
- Florence Tanner: Are you quoting?
- Benjamin Franklin Fischer: Yes, I am. That is his second wife. She commited suicide in this room in 1927.
- Florence Tanner: The Lord certainly does move in mysterious ways.
- Benjamin Franklin Fischer: So does this house.
- Florence Tanner: It's hideous.
- Dr. Lionel Barrett: We're not even inside yet, Miss Tanner.
- Florence Tanner: I don't have to be.
- Florence Tanner: He's like a general with his army, never entering the battle but always controlling it.
- Florence Tanner: I will have you know that there is nothing in the Bible, not a single phenomenon, that doesn't happen today. Be it sights or sounds, shaking of the house, coming through closed doors, rushing winds, levitations, automatic writing or the speaking in tongues!
- Florence Tanner: Controlled multiple hauntings - something absolutely unique in haunted houses. A surviving will so powerful that he can use that power to dominate all other surviving sources.
- Benjamin Franklin Fischer: You mean Emeric Belasco?
