Watch the original version of Odd Thomas
Odd Thomas always felt like he was different than the rest of his small-town friends. He could see things that no one else could, things that made him feel like an outsider.
One day, Odd was working at the diner where he worked as a fry cook when a strange man came in. He was wearing a long black coat and an air of power that made Odd take notice. The man looked around the diner, almost as if he was expecting someone, yet no one came in.
Odd watched as the man’s entourage of ghostly bodachs followed him to a table in the corner. Odd knew something wasn’t right. The man and the bodachs had an eerie energy, like they were up to no good.
Odd tried to mind his own business, but he couldn’t help but overhear bits and pieces of the man’s conversations with the bodachs. They spoke in hushed tones of something sinister that was coming to the town, but they never revealed what it was.
The man eventually left, but Odd was left with a feeling of dread. He had a feeling that something bad was coming, and he had to figure out what it was before it was too late.
Odd decided to do some snooping around town to try and figure out what was going on. He found out that the man had been asking around town about a secret artifact that he was looking for. Odd also discovered that the man was from a powerful organization known as the Graven Image.
Odd knew he couldn’t ignore this any longer and went to warn his friends about the impending threat. But it was already too late.
The artifact, a stone tablet, was brought to the town by the Graven Image and unleashed an ancient evil. It was up to Odd and his friends to stop them before it was too late.
They raced against time as they battled against powerful forces, determined to discover the secrets the tablet held so they could prevent the evil from taking over their small town.
Through luck, courage, and determination, they were successful in defeating the darkness and returned the town to its former peace.
Odd Thomas had saved his town, but he knew that the danger was far from over. He had seen something in the face of the man from the Graven Image that told him that this was just the beginning…

Suddenly, he hears a familiar voice.

Odd…

You know what I’m looking for. Now you must help me find it.

Odd and the strange man stand in front of a map of the town. The Bodachs linger in the background, watching their every move.
Odd places his finger on the map, indicating the location of the secret artifact he believes the man is searching for.
STRANGE MAN

Suddenly, a dark figure steps out from the trees. It is the leader of the Graven Image, a powerful organization determined to unlock the secrets of the artifact.
He looks at Odd and smiles.
LEADER
You have done well, Odd Thomas. Now it is time to unlock the power of the stone tablet.
Odd looks around at the group of menacing figures, afraid of what is about to happen. He knows he must do whatever it takes to prevent the power of the tablet from falling into the wrong hands.
END OF SCENE
EXT. CLEARING – DAY
Odd and the Leader face off in the center of the clearing. The other members of the Graven Image form a circle around them, blocking any escape.
The leader reaches into his coat and pulls out the stone tablet, holding it up for all to see. Odd feels a chill as he stares at the tablet. He knows this is a moment of destiny.
The leader begins to chant an ancient incantation and the tablet starts to glow. He is about to unlock its power.
Suddenly, Odd notices a figure in the shadows. It is his friend, Annie, and she is holding a gun. Before anyone can react, she fires a warning shot into the air.
Annie shouts for Odd to run, and he does. He grabs the tablet from the leader and sprints away, dodging bullets as he goes. He manages to make it to safety and hides in the forest, where he is soon joined by Annie.
They stare at the tablet in their hands, wondering what to do next.
FADE OUT.
EXT. SMALL TOWN SQUARE – DAY
Odd and Annie come back to the town square, the tablet in hand. The people of the town stare in awe at Odd and Annie, who have returned with the powerful artifact.
Odd steps forward and speaks to the crowd.
ODD
We will not let the Graven Image use the power of this tablet for evil. We must find a way to keep it safe from them.
A silence hangs in the air, until finally someone from the crowd steps forward. It is the strange man from the diner.
STRANGE MAN
I can help you. I am an expert in magical artifacts and I can create a powerful protection spell that will guard the tablet from evil.
Odd and Annie look at each other. It is not what they expected, but they know they must accept his help.
The strange man begins to chant and a shimmering blue energy forms around the tablet. The crowd watches in wonder as the magical protection spell is cast.
FADE OUT
