Vanishing on 7th Street

Paul, a projectionist in a Detroit theater, is reading about the 16th century disappearance of the Roanoke Colony when the lights suddenly go out. He finds that all the staff and patrons have vanished, leaving only their clothes behind. He comes across a security guard holding a flashlight; as Paul had a headlamp on for his reading, they deduce that people holding sources of light are protected against whatever dwells in the darkness. Upon hearing a sound in a department store the guard goes to investigate when his flashlight goes out, and he vanishes. As Paul hears the guard cry out, his headlamp goes out as well. The scene changes to a hospital where a woman in scrubs, Rosemary, frantically looks for anyone left alive and continuously screams for a child named Manny.
