Halloweentown (1998) - full transcript
Marnie, Dylan, and Sophie Piper have their first out of many adventures! On Halloween, while Marnie is arguing with her mother Gwen, the kids' grandmother Aggie comes to visit. Aggie wants to start Marnie's witch training before her 13th birthday or Marnie will lose her powers forever. But there is another reason for Aggie's visit. Something dark & evil is growing in Halloweentown & Aggie wants help to defeat it. While Aggie & Gwen are arguing, Aggie uses magic which Marnie observes. After Aggie leaves to return to Halloweentown, Marnie, Dylan and, unknown to Marnie and Dylan, Sophie follow her onto the return bus. Soon afterwards, Gwen follows the children to Halloweentown. While there, Aggie & Gwen are attacked by the dark force in a movie theater. Marnie, Dylan & Sophie race to get the ingredients to activate Merlin's Wand to stop the evil.

HEY, WAIT A MINUTE.
WHAT ABOUT
THIS HOUSE?
FORGET THAT HOUSE.
SOMEBODY'S COMING.
COME ON, SOPHIE.
YOU KNOW NOBODY EVER
COMES HERE ON HALLOWEEN.
BUT, MOM, IT'S JUST
A COSTUME PARTY.
YOU'VE GOTTA LET ME GO!
THE WHOLE WORLD IS GOING!
IF I DON'T GO, I'LL
BE A FREAK!
THE ODDS ARE 50%
I'D GET ONE
NORMAL SISTER.
MOM, I'M 13. I'M
PRACTICALLY A GROWNUP.
I'M CERTAINLY OLD ENOUGH
TO MAKE MY OWN CHOICES.
RIGHT?
YEAH.
I GUESS SO.
IS THERE AN AGE
FOR THAT?
MARNIE, I'M SORRY, BUT YOU ARE
NOT GOING OUT ON HALLOWEEN.
WHY?
I HAVE MY REASONS,
AND I WILL EXPLAIN THEM TO
YOU WHEN YOU ARE TALLER.
MOM, YOU HAVE BEEN SAYING
THAT FOR MY WHOLE LIFE, OK?
IT'S JUST ONE NIGHT.
WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL?
IT DOES SEEM A
LITTLE UNFAIR.
I MEAN, SEEING AS HOW MARNIE
LIKES WEIRD STUFF SO MUCH.
YEAH. HALLOWEEN IS,
LIKE, MADE FOR HER.
SKELETONS, WITCHES,
VAMPIRES...
YOU KNOW, SHE SPENDS
OUR WHOLE MATH CLASS
DRAWING GHOSTS
IN HER NOTEBOOK.
GUYS!
ALL RIGHT, THAT'S ALL.
THANK YOU ALL FOR COMING.
YOU'VE BEEN A LOVELY AUDIENCE
BUT THE SHOW IS OVER.
MARNIE WILL SEE YOU
ALL TOMORROW.
MOM!
SEE YOU LATER,
MARNIE.
WE'LL BRING YOU
SOME CANDY.
GOOD NIGHT.
I'M SO SICK OF THIS!
I WANT TO KNOW WHY WE CAN'T
BE LIKE OTHER KIDS
AND GO OUT ON HALLOWEEN?
MY POOR LITTLE SISTER SHOULD
BE OUT TRICK-OR-TREATING.
BUT LOOK AT HER. YOU'VE KEPT
HER FROM A NORMAL CHILDHOOD,
AND IT'S TURNED HER INTO
A WALL ORNAMENT.
I THINK IT'S OBVIOUS WHY
HALLOWEEN IS BAD.
THAT WHOLE RAZOR BLADE IN THE
APPLE THING WAS AN URBAN MYTH,
OF COURSE,
BUT ALL THAT CANDY CAUSES
CAVITIES AND GUM DISEASE.
AND THOSE MASK EVERYBODY WEARS
HAVE THESE WEIRD KIND OF
TOXIC FUMES INSIDE
THAT MAKE YOUR ARMS
GO LIMP AND...
AND...
IT'S TOTALLY TOO LATE FOR HIM.
I'M SORRY. I KNOW THAT
YOU WANT TO GO OUT WITH
YOUR FRIENDS,
BUT THERE ARE JUST SOME
THINGS ABOUT HALLOWEEN THAT
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.
LIKE THERE'S SOME BIG,
MYSTERIOUS REASON
WHY WE CAN'T GO OUT.
FACE IT, MOM. YOU DON'T
TRUST YOUR OWN KIDS.
THAT IS NOT TRUE.
OH, YES, IT IS.
YOU KEEP US ALL IN
THIS BIG BUBBLE.
HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO GROW UP
IF WE CAN'T EXPLORE THE WORLD,
TRY NEW STUFF, AND
TAKE SOME RISKS?
MARNIE, I AM
JUST TRYING TO
PROTECT YOU.
YEAH. YOU'RE PROTECTING US
FROM BEING ANYTHING BUT
A BUNCH OF VEGETABLES.
HEY, LOOK. I'M A POTATO.
ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?
MAYBE I'LL PUT DOWN SOME
ROOTS IN THE CARPET?
"OH, NO, MARNIE.
IT'S TOO DANGEROUS.
THERE'S THINGS ABOUT
VEGETABLES THAT YOU
DON'T UNDERSTAND."
SOMEBODY'S COMING.
COME, MY LITTLE
WALL ORNAMENT.
LET'S GET YOU WASHED
UP FOR DINNER.
COME ON.
WHY ARE YOU SO OBSESSED
WITH HALLOWEEN?
IT'S JUST LIKE MOM SAYS.
IT GIVES LITTLE
KIDS DUMB IDEAS
ABOUT THERE BEING MAGIC.
LIKE THAT HELPS THEM
PREPARE FOR LIFE.
PERSONALLY, GIVE ME A GOOD
NATURE DOCUMENTARY ANY DAY.
HALLOWEEN IS COOL, NATURE BOY.
IT'S EXCITING, STRANGE,
AND ANCIENT.
PLUS, MOM AND DAD
MET ON HALLOWEEN.
SHHH. WHAT ARE YOU
TRYING TO DO?
YOU KNOW HOW TALKING ABOUT
DAD ALWAYS BUMS MOM OUT.
WHY CAN'T YOU PICK SOME OTHER
HOLIDAY TO GET HUNG UP ON,
LIKE ARBOR DAY?
TREES ARE IMPORTANT
TOO, YOU KNOW.
HEY, GUYS. WAIT UP!
WAIT FOR ME.
OH, C'MON.
COME ON.
SUIT YOURSELF.
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
C'MON, MOM. IT'S
JUST ONE COOKIE.
NOT BEFORE DINNER, SOPHIE.
MARNIE'S RIGHT. YOU NEVER
LET US DO ANYTHING FUN.
YOU CAN HAVE A
COOKIE AFTER DINNER.
I WANT THAT COOKIE.
I REALLY WANT THAT COOKIE.
NOT AGAIN!
ARE YOU EATING A COOKIE?
NO.
GO SIT DOWN.
GOOD THING SHE DOESN'T
LIKE LIVER, EH, DEAR?
MOTHER!
GRANDMA!
WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?
GRANDMA!
GRANDMA!
HOW WONDERFUL TO SEE YOU
AND THE CHILDREN AGAIN.
OH, MY, MY! HOW
YOU'VE GROWN!
DID YOU BRING US PRESENTS?
OH, PRESENTS,
PRESENTS, PRESENTS.
WHAT KIND OF A GRANDMA
DO YOU THINK I'D BE
IF I DIDN'T BRING
YOU PRESENTS?
THEY'RE RIGHT HERE
IN MY SUITCASE.
I JUST-- I DON'T KNOW
WHERE THAT THING WENT.
JUST A MINUTE.
COME ON, LITTLE
DARLING. COME ON.
HERE IT IS.
HOW COME YOU BEEN GONE
SO LONG, GRANDMA?
WELL, YOU KNOW, ONE
THING AND ANOTHER.
BUT THE IMPORTANT THING
IS THAT I'M HERE NOW.
AND I'M SO GLAD TO SEE YOU.
OH.
C'MON, C'MON.
HEY, MOM, DO YOU THINK
YOU AND GRANDMA
COULD, LIKE, NOT
FIGHT FOR ONCE?
I MEAN, WE HAVEN'T SEEN
HER IN OVER A YEAR.
GRANDMA AGGIE'S THE ONE
WHO ALWAYS STARTS IT.
DOES NOT.
DOES TOO.
DOES NOT.
DOES TOO.
DOES NOT!
EUREKA!
CANDY!
THAT'S THE SPIRIT.
OH, WOW.
LET'S PUT ON OUR BIKINIS
AND GO SWIMMING IN IT.
AND THEN WE'LL PUT UP
THE DECORATIONS,
SO WE CAN GET THIS
PARTY STARTED.
LOOK. GRANDMA DRESSED
UP FOR HALLOWEEN.
WHAT? OH, YES.
OF COURSE I DID.
I ALWAYS DO.
OH, HERE, HONEY.
I WANT YOU TO GO HANG
THIS ON THE DOOR.
IT ANNOYS THE VAMPIRES.
THIS BAG
DEFIES LOGIC.
HOW DOES ALL THIS
STUFF FIT IN HERE?
YOU KNOW, DEAR, IF
I'M NOT MISTAKEN,
THIS IS MARNIE'S
13th HALLOWEEN.
WONDERFULLY LUCKY NUMBER 13.
TOTALLY.
YES. I'M WELL AWARE
OF WHAT NUMBER IT
IS, MOTHER.
HEY, LOOK. A
PENTAGRAM.
LON CHANEY HAD ONE OF
THESE ON HIS PALM
WHEN HE GOT BITTEN
BY THAT WEREWOLF.
SO HE DID.
I'VE ALWAYS SAID THE MOVIES
CAN TEACH US ABOUT LIFE.
MOTHER, AS I JUST GOT
THROUGH TELLING MARNIE,
HALLOWEEN IS NOT
SOMETHING--
WHAT ELSE CAN I
DO, GRANDMA?
WHY DON'T YOU PUT
OUT THE PUMPKINS?
SEE, THEY HAVE SUCH
CUTE LITTLE FACES.
JUST LIKE YOURS.
NEAT.
AND I THOUGHT YOU'D
APPRECIATE THESE.
HIEROGLYPHICS!
MOTHER?
THESE LOOK LIKE THE ONES FROM
THE EGYPTIAN BOOK OF THE DEAD.
VERY GOOD.
I BET YOU GET
"A"s IN SCHOOL.
ACTUALLY, SHE GETS
"B"s AND "C"s.
I GET THE "A"s.
OOH.
GRANDMA, THIS IS
TOTALLY AWESOME.
NOBODY AROUND HERE
REALLY APPRECIATES MY
TASTE IN WEIRD STUFF.
ENCOURAGEMENT
NOT GOOD.
NO.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE?
I HAVE DEJA VU A LOT.
I MEAN LIKE ALL THE TIME.
REALLY?
WELL, YOU KNOW--
MOTHER...
COULD I TALK TO YOU IN THE
KITCHEN FOR JUST ONE MINUTE?
ABSOLUTELY, DEAR.
AS SOON AS I GET THE CHILDREN
INTO THEIR COSTUMES.
COSTUMES?!
WOW!
AND THE GHOST.
THERE.
WHAT?
OH, THIS IS A WINNER.
THIS IS SO AWESOME!
I'M A WICCAN.
I'M A GHOST.
I THINK I'M A BIG PIMPLE.
ALL RIGHT, THAT'S IT!
THESE CHILDREN ARE NOT GOING
OUT TRICK-OR-TREATING.
AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR DINNER.
BUT, MOM--
NO, NO. SHE'S RIGHT.
WE'LL EAT THE CANDY LATER.
WOO WOO WOO
OOO WOO WOO.
OH, NO, DEAR. IT'S MORE
LIKE A MOANING SOUND.
YOU KNOW, GHOSTS TEND TO BE
VERY DEPRESSED CREATURES,
ANYWAY.
LIKE THIS... WOOOOOO...
WOOOOOOO...
WELL, MOTHER, YOUR VISIT'S
BEEN VERY EDUCATIONAL,
BUT IT'S TIME FOR BED.
AW, MOM.
SHE'S RIGHT.
YOUR MOTHER AND I NEED TO
TALK ABOUT GROWNUP THINGS.
CAN'T YOU AT
LEAST TELL US A
BEDTIME STORY?
YEAH. GREAT IDEA.
YEAH.
I MEAN HORRIBLE IDEA.
C'MON, MOM. PLEASE.
PLEASE, PLEASE.
WELL...
ALL RIGHT. BUT JUST ONE.
SEE YOU UPSTAIRS,
GRANDMA.
YOU GUYS GET READY FOR BED
AND WE'LL BE RIGHT UP.
OH, I MISS THEM SO.
YOU KNOW, DEAR, I'VE
BEEN THINKING.
I'D LOVE TO HAVE YOU
MOVE BACK HOME, GWEN.
THERE'S PLENTY OF
ROOM FOR ALL OF YOU
AT MY HOUSE.
MOTHER--
AND SINCE WILLIAM'S
PASSED ON,
THERE'S NOTHING TO
HOLD YOU HERE.
NOTHING HAS TO HOLD
ME HERE, MOTHER.
I LIKE BEING HERE.
I CAN HAVE A NORMAL
LIFE HERE.
THEY CAN HAVE A
NORMAL LIFE HERE.
OH, BEING NORMAL IS
VASTLY OVERRATED.
WELL, I LIKE BEING NORMAL.
AS MUCH AS I WANT THE KIDS
TO KNOW THEIR FAMILY,
THE FACT IS, YOU'RE
NOT NORMAL.
HMM.
EVERY TIME YOU COME INTO
THE HOUSE, IT'S CHAOS.
AND THE CANDY AND THE
DECORATIONS AND THE...
MOTHER...
LET'S NOT
FIGHT AGAIN.
I KNOW YOU'RE ONLY HERE
FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS.
GO AND TELL 'EM A STORY.
TALK TO THEM AND
GET TO KNOW THEM.
BUT DON'T TELL THEM
ABOUT HOME.
YOUR HOME, I MEAN.
OH, DON'T WORRY, DEAR.
I WON'T TELL
THEM A THING.
THANK YOU.
HI. I JUST CAME BY
TO CHECK THAT EVERYONE'S
GOT THEIR THERMOSTAT SET
TO 68 DEGREES,
BECAUSE IT'S IMPORTANT
TO CONSERVE ENERGY
DURING THE EVENING...
DYLAN, JUST GET IN HERE.
WHICH STORY ARE YOU
GOING TO TELL US?
IS IT ONE I KNOW?
OH, NO,
I WOULDN'T THINK SO.
MY STORY'S ABOUT A
MAGICAL PLACE,
WHERE MANY DIFFERENT
SORTS OF CREATURES LIVE
TOGETHER IN PEACE.
LIKE CLEVELAND?
I HEAR THEY HAVE
A NICE SCHOOL DISTRICT.
WELL, ACTUALLY, THE
PLACE I'M SPEAKING OF
IS CALLED HALLOWEENTOWN.
AND THE RESIDENTS
ARE A BIT MORE...
EXOTIC.
MONSTERS, GOBLINS, GHOSTS,
AND VAMPIRES AND GNOMES
AND SKELETONS.
DO THEY HAVE
BANSHEES THERE TOO?
BY THE DOZENS.
AND, OF COURSE, A FEW
VERY FINE WITCHES.
I DON'T LIKE WITCHES.
THEY'RE MEAN AND SCARY.
OH, NO, NO, NO, SWEETHEART.
SOME OF THEM ARE JUST
LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.
SOME ARE KIND. SOME ARE MEAN.
THAT'S THE WAY THEY
USE THEIR MAGIC.
YOU CAN'T TELL WHAT'S IN
A MONSTER'S HEART JUST
BY LOOKING AT THEM.
SOMETIMES, SOME OF
THE SLIMIEST, UGLIEST
LITTLE MONSTERS
TURN OUT TO BE THE NICEST.
I WANT TO GO THERE.
EXCUSE ME, BUT WE HAVE AN
IMPRESSIONABLE
YOUNG CHILD HERE.
I THINK WE SHOULD
MAKE IT CLEAR
THAT THIS PLACE WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT IS JUST PRETEND.
OH, YES, YES.
WELL, ACTUALLY, I HAVE TO
CONFESS I DIDN'T MAKE IT UP.
I READ ABOUT IT IN A BOOK.
SO, YOU SEE, MAYBE IT IS REAL.
A BOOK? WHAT BOOK?
THERE. HALLOWEENTOWN.
LET ME SEE.
ALL RIGHT.
LOOK. A GHOST.
JUST LIKE WE WERE
PLAYING, GRANDMA.
OH, THERE'S A
WEREWOLF AND A
VAMPIRE AND A GNOME.
DOGMAN.
THIS BOOK IS SO NEAT.
IT HAS LIKE ALL THE
STUFF I'M INTERESTED IN.
GREAT. THE WEIRDO
ENCYCLOPEDIA.
EEEW. SNOTMAN.
LOOK. IT'S MARNIE.
IT IS ME.
SHE DOESN'T LOOK
ANYTHING LIKE YOU.
SHE'S WAY TOO CUTE.
OH, YEAH. AND THIS IS
FROM A GUY WHO COULD WIN
AN UGLY CONTEST.
THERE IS QUITE A
RESEMBLANCE.
PERHAPS MARNIE HAS
A SECRET LIFE
WE DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT.
WELL, IF SHE
IS A WITCH,
SHE'S GOT THE WEIRD
PART DOWN PAT.
IT'S JUST THE MAGIC
POWER SHE'S MISSING.
HOW ABOUT IT, DEAR?
HAVE YOU CASTED ANY SPELLS
OR TAKEN MIDNIGHT FLIGHTS
THROUGH THE SKY?
I WISH.
BUT THE TRUTH IS
THERE'S NOTHING
SPECIAL ABOUT ME.
OH, NO, DEAR. YOU'RE
VERY SPECIAL.
YOU'RE A CROMWELL.
AND SINCE THE DAWN OF TIME,
THE CROMWELLS HAVE
BEEN THE MOST--
MOTHER.
IT'S GETTING LATE.
YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO
MISS YOUR BUS BACK HOME.
OH, GRANDMA
HAS TO GO?
CAN'T YOU STAY
OVERNIGHT, GRANDMA?
YOUR MOTHER'S QUITE RIGHT.
IF I DON'T HEAD
HOME BY MIDNIGHT,
IT'S A LONG TIME
UNTIL THE NEXT BUS.
KISS GRANDMA GOODNIGHT.
GOODNIGHT, DEAR.
DON'T LET THE BOOGEYMAN BITE.
I'LL BE BACK TO SEE YOU
ALL AS SOON AS I CAN.
THAT'S LIGHTS OUT, YOU TWO.
MOTHER, I'M GONNA
PUT DYLAN TO BED,
AND THEN I WILL MEET YOU
DOWN IN THE KITCHEN IN
ONE MINUTE.
OF COURSE, DEAR.
GOODNIGHT, GRANDMA.
BYE.
AND AFTER I TOLD YOU
NOT TO TELL THEM
ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
I WAS ONLY TRYING TO DO
WHAT YOU SHOULD HAVE
DONE LONG AGO.
YOU'RE ON THE VERGE OF
BREAKING A TRADITION
THAT GOES BACK MORE THAN
A THOUSAND YEARS.
YOUR TRADITION,
MOTHER, NOT MINE.
MARNIE IS MY DAUGHTER,
AND IF I DECIDE NOT TO
TRAIN HER LIKE A WITCH,
THEN IT'S NONE OF
YOUR BUSINESS.
A WITCH'S 13th HALLOWEEN
IS SUPPOSED TO MARK THE
COMPLETION OF HER TRAINING.
If Marni's training
doesn't begin tonight
her powers will
be lost forever.
Yes, and she'll
finally be human.
She'll finally be normal
like her brother, like
her father,
AND LIKE SOPHIE
WILL BE AFTER HER.
WEDDING A HUMAN FATHER!
You're lucky that you
have two children
THAT ARE SHOWING
POWERS AT ALL.
DO YOU REALLY WANT THEM
GOING THROUGH LIFE DOING
THINGS THE HARD WAY?
I MEAN, LOOK AT YOU WITH
YOUR PLASTIC BOWLS,
WHEN YOU KNOW LEFTOVER
CHICKEN KEEPS BETTER
WHEN IT'S BACK ON
THE BONE.
MOTHER! GET THAT THING
OUT OF HERE RIGHT NOW!
( Clucking )
FOR YEARS, YOU HAVE
BEEN COMING HERE.
YOU HAVE BEEN DROPPING
HINTS TO MARNIE,
AND YOU'VE BEEN BADGERING
ME TO START HER TRAINING.
I KNOW THAT'S WHY YOU CAME
HERE TONIGHT, MOTHER.
BUT THE FIGHT IS OVER.
DO YOU KNOW THAT?
THE CLOCK HAS FINALLY RUN OUT,
AND YOU CAN JUST GO HOME.
GWEN, AS MUCH AS I THINK
YOU'RE MAKING A TERRIBLE
MISTAKE WITH MARNIE,
YOU'RE WRONG ABOUT WHY
I CAME HERE TONIGHT.
FACT IS, I CAME TO
ASK FOR YOUR HELP.
MY HELP?
WITH WHAT?
WELL, SOMETHING IS
WRONG AT HOME.
SOMETHING'S HAPPENING.
EVERY DAY, I FIND ANOTHER
NEIGHBOR HAS CHANGED.
TURNED HATEFUL.
IT'S FRIGHTENING.
AND SOON AFTER THAT, THEY
DISAPPEAR ALTOGETHER.
MY NEIGHBORS
DISAPPEAR SOMETIMES TOO.
IT'S CALLED MOVING.
I'M QUITE SERIOUS
ABOUT THIS.
IT'S AS THOUGH
SOMETHING OR SOMEONE
IS TRYING TO RETURN US
TO THE DARK TIMES.
AND I FEAR MY
POWERS ALONE
MAY NOT BE ENOUGH
TO STOP IT.
I NEED ANOTHER CROMWELL WITCH!
I NEED YOU!
MOTHER, THERE ARE PLENTY OF
OTHER WITCHES AND WARLOCKS
IN HALLOWEENTOWN.
WHY DON'T YOU RECRUIT
ONE OF THEM?
OH, I'VE TRIED!
YOU KNOW HOW IT IS TODAY--
NO ONE WANTS TO GET INVOLVED.
MOTHER, I'M SURE THAT YOU
BELIEVE THAT THERE'S SOME
KIND OF PROBLEM,
BUT I CAN'T JUST
LEAVE MY KIDS
TO GO FIGHT SOME NAMELESS
FORCE IN ANOTHER WORLD
THAT I HAVE NOTHING
TO DO WITH.
NOTHING TO DO WITH?
WELL, FINE.
BURY YOUR HEAD IN THE SAND
OF THAT PRECIOUS MORTAL
WORLD OF YOURS.
PERHAPS THE CROMWELL
LINE WILL END WITH YOU.
BUT LET'S JUST HOPE
THAT HALLOWEENTOWN
DOESN'T COME TO AN
END ALONG WITH IT.
ENJOY YOUR
LEFTOVERS, DEAR.
( Clucks )
MOTHER.
AND THEN SHE TALKED ABOUT
ALL THIS WEIRD STUFF
THAT'S HAPPENING
IN HALLOWEENTOWN,
LIKE IT'S A REAL PLACE.
THEN SHE TURNED OUR LEFTOVERS
INTO A LIVE CHICKEN STANDING
RIGHT THERE IN THE BOWL.
AND THAT'S WHEN I
KNEW SHE IS A WITCH,
AND SO IS MOM, AND SO AM I.
BECAUSE THEY BOTH SAID
SO. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I THINK IT PROVES
INSANITY IS HEREDITARY.
I JUST HOPE BOYS ARE IMMUNE.
IT MUST BE ONE OF THOSE
RADIO-CONTROLLED MODELS.
SHE'S LEAVING.
SHE'S GOING BACK TO
HALLOWEENTOWN.
I GOTTA GO AFTER HER.
GO AFTER HER?
ARE YOU CRAZY?
I HAVE TO GO.
IF SHE DOESN'T START
TRAINING ME AS A WITCH
TONIGHT,
I COULD LOSE MY
POWERS FOREVER.
YOU DON'T REALLY BELIEVE
ALL THIS WITCH STUFF IS
TRUE, DO YOU?
DYLAN, HAVEN'T YOU EVER
WONDERED ABOUT THE STUFF
THAT GOES ON IN
OUR HOUSE?
NO.
LIKE WHY MOM WON'T LET US
TALK ABOUT, WATCH, OR READ
ANYTHING THAT HAS THE
WORD MAGIC IN IT.
NO.
HAVEN'T YOU EVER WONDERED WHY
WE PRETEND HALLOWEEN
DOESN'T EXIST?
OR WHY I HAVE DEJA VU
ALL THE TIME?
OR WHY STUFF SEEMS TO
FALL OFF THE SHELVES
WHENEVER SOPHIE
HAS A TANTRUM?
NO.
WELL, I HAVE.
AND NOW THAT I'VE
FOUND OUT THE TRUTH,
I'M NOT GOING TO STAY HERE
AND TURN INTO A BORING
HUMAN LIKE YOU.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
BORING LIKE ME?
TV:
TIRED OF THAT DANK,
MUSTY ODOR IN YOUR CELLAR?
TRY THE NEW SPORE
BUSTER DELUXE.
IT REMOVES MOLD AND
FUNGUS JUST LIKE MAGIC.
NO, IT DOESN'T.
THE HOUSE DOESN'T
SMELL LIKE MUSHROOM
OLIVES ANYMORE.
THANKS, SPORE BUSTER.
MARNIE, WAIT UP.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
I'M THE MAN OF
THE HOUSE.
I GOTTA KEEP AN
EYE ON YOU.
PLUS, I'M GONNA HAVE A HARD
TIME GETTING BACK TO SLEEP
TILL I FIND OUT IF
YOU'RE CRAZY OR NOT.
THEN HELP ME FIND HER.
SHE'S GOTTA BE AROUND
HERE SOMEWHERE.
THERE SHE IS.
GET DOWN.
WHERE DID THAT BUS
STOP COME FROM?
I DON'T KNOW. CAN I
PUT MY SHOE ON NOW?
I'M HAVING THAT
DEJA VU FEELING AGAIN.
YOU KNEW I WAS GONNA
PUT ON MY SHOE?
NO. ABOUT THIS
WHOLE THING--
THE BUS STOP, GRANDMA.
WAIT. MAYBE IT'S NOT
DEJA VU AT ALL.
MAYBE I'M SEEING
THE FUTURE.
RIGHT. NOW YOU CAN
SEE THE FUTURE.
TELL ME. WHAT AM I GONNA
HAVE FOR BREAKFAST?
WHY ARE YOU SUCH A DOWNER?
WHY ARE YOU SUCH
A NUT CASE?
DOWNER.
NUT CASE.
DOW--
WHERE'D THAT BUS
COME FROM?
I DON'T KNOW BUT I'M
NOT MISSING IT.
HI, SKINNER.
HELLO, AGGIE.
MADE IT.
WHY DON'T WE GO SIT
WITH GRANDMA?
NOT YET. I DON'T WANT
TO TAKE A CHANCE
OF HER STOPPING THE BUS
TO SEND US HOME.
STOPPING THE
BUS WHERE?
SO, ANYWAY, THERE I WAS
TRYING TO SPOOK THIS FELLOW--
HE WAS BUYING NACHOS
AT THE MINI-MART--
WHEN THIS SMART-ALECK CHILD
WITH A DREADFUL
LITTLE MONSTER MASK
RUNS UP TO ME AND
YELLS "DADDY!"
I ASK YOU, WHERE
IS THE RESPECT?
IT'S NOT LIKE THE OLD DAYS.
PEOPLE HAVE CHANGED.
I WAS A DEMON FROM
THE UNDERWORLD,
AND THEY SAY, "BIG DEAL. I
SAW THE SAME THING ON JERRY
SPRINGER."
MUST BE ONE OF THOSE
CHARTER BUSES
COMING BACK FROM A COSTUME
PARTY AT THE MOOSE LODGE.
OR MAYBE-- OOOH!
WE'RE HERE.
YEAH, BUT WHERE'S HERE?
OOH! I'M SORRY. SORRY.
AGGIE! HOW ARE
YOU, DEAR?
OH, HARRIET, I'M FINE.
BEEN VISITING WITH
THE MORTALS, EH?
DIDN'T HAVE TIME
THIS YEAR MYSELF.
DOING SOME VOLUNTEER WORK DOWN
AT THE HEADLESS SHELTER.
POOR DEARS. CARE FOR A MUFFIN?
I BAKED 'EM FOR THE
FOLKS AT THE SHELTER.
DIDN'T OCCUR TO ME THEY
COULDN'T EAT THEM.
NO HEADS. HA HA HA HA!
OH, WELL. MUST BE OFF.
TAKE CARE.
BYE, HARRIET.
OH, WOW.
WHOA!
I DON'T GET IT.
MONSTERS ARE JUST PRETEND.
DYLAN, THIS IS IT.
MOM SAID THEY WERE
JUST PRETEND.
THIS IS HALLOWEENTOWN,
JUST LIKE THE BOOK.
OR MAYBE WE FELL ASLEEP
ON THE BUS.
YEAH, THAT'S IT.
IT'S ALL A DREAM.
THE DECORATIONS, THE
GOBLINS, THE WITCHES,
THE GHOSTS?
AND GRANDMA. SHE
WAS A DREAM TOO.
OH, NO! GRANDMA!
WHERE DID SHE GO?
SHE'S GOTTA BE AROUND
HERE SOMEWHERE.
WE'VE GOT TO
FIND HER.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
WE'RE GONNA LOSE--
SOPHIE?
HOW DID YOU
GET HERE?
CAREFUL. SHE COULD
BE A MIRAGE.
WOULD YOU STOP?
HOW DID YOU
GET HERE?
I FOLLOWED YOU ONTO THE BUS.
BUT YOU WERE ASLEEP.
I WAS PRETENDING.
SEE, YOU'RE A
BAD INFLUENCE.
THE PUMPKIN DOESN'T LOOK
VERY NICE LIKE IN THE BOOK.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
IT IS DIFFERENT.
IT'S THE BAD THING.
HOW DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT THAT?
WHAT BAD THING?
WELL, WELL. HELLO THERE.
I DON'T BELIEVE WE'VE MET.
AND THAT MEANS I'M IN TROUBLE
'CAUSE THE MAYOR'S SUPPOSED
TO KNOW EVERYBODY.
I'M SOPHIE.
PARDON?
SOPHIE.
WHAT?
SOPHIE!
I CAN'T HEAR YOU.
I SEEM TO HAVE A...
LOLLIPOP IN MY EAR.
THERE YOU ARE, SOPHIE.
NO, THANKS.
OK.
NEAT TRICK.
I'M MARNIE.
CALABAR.
AND THAT WASN'T A TRICK.
I'M A WARLOCK IN MY OFF HOURS.
AND YOU ARE?
HUMAN.
THIS IS MY BROTHER DYLAN.
WE'RE AGGIE CROMWELL'S
GRANDKIDS.
WAIT A MINUTE. ARE
YOU GWEN'S KIDS?
YOU KNOW OUR MOM?
WELL, I DID A
LONG TIME AGO.
IS SHE HERE WITH YOU?
UH, NO, BUT THAT'S OK.
SEE, WE CAME WITH
OUR GRANDMA
AND WE KIND OF
LOST HER IN THE CROWD
GETTING OFF THE BUS.
DO YOU KNOW WHERE
SHE LIVES?
OF COURSE. SHE'S LIVED IN THE
SAME HOUSE FOR 200 YEARS.
I'LL GET BENNY TO
RUN YOU UP THERE.
( Whistles )
C'MON.
WE REALLY APPRECIATE
YOU DOING THIS FOR--
HOWDY, MAYOR.
WHAT'S THE RUSH?
I'M ON MY LUNCH HOUR.
FILET OF FISH.
HAA! JUST KIDDING.
WHAT'S THE DEAL?
I FOUND A BUNCH OF
CROMWELLS IN THE
TOWN SQUARE.
THEY NEED A LIFT UP TO
THEIR GRANDMA'S PLACE.
SURE. IT'S JUST OVER THE RIVER
AND THROUGH THE WOODS. HAA!
ACTUALLY, IT'S JUST
TWO STREETS OVER
AND UP A QUARTER MILE PAST
THE OLD MOVIE THEATER.
SAY HI TO AGGIE
FOR ME.
THERE YOU GO.
HE'S A MUCH BETTER DRIVER
THAN HE IS A COMEDIAN.
HEY!
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.
SO LONG, SOAPY.
SOPHIE!
IT'S NOT POLITE TO STARE.
POLITE? LET'S TALK ABOUT
HOW ILLEGAL IT IS
TO DRIVE WITH NO
EYEBALLS.
FIRST TIME IN TOWN
FOR YOU KIDS?
YEAH. WE JUST GOT
HERE ON THE BUS.
IT'S SO AMAZING.
YEAH. IT'S A PRETTY
NICE PLACE.
BETTER THAN A LOT OF
GRAVEYARDS I'VE HUNG
OUT IN.
BUT THAT DON'T MEAN YOU KIDS
CAN GO RUNNING AROUND
HERE BY YOURSELVES.
WHY NOT?
WELL, LET'S JUST SAY THAT
THERE ARE CHARACTERS
AROUND HERE
THAT AIN'T THE MOST SAVORY.
LIKE THAT KID. LUKE.
WHO IS HE?
HE'S JUST A LOCAL PUNK.
THINKS HE'S A BIG SHOT
JUST BECAUSE HE
GOT A NOSE JOB
AND HAD A FEW
WARTS REMOVED.
CLAIMED SOME SHADOW
CREATURE GAVE IT TO HIM.
HAA!
WELL, HERE WE ARE.
CHEZ CROMWELL.
COOL.
THANKS FOR THE RIDE.
DO YOU TAKE DOLLARS?
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
CATCH ME IN THE
NEXT LIFE.
HAA!
SEE YA, KIDS.
BYE.
HE'S PROBABLY ANIMATRONIC.
DISNEYLAND'S FULL OF
STUFF LIKE THAT.
YEAH. WHEN MR. LINCOLN
DRIVES ME TO THE STORE,
WE'LL TALK.
WELL, IT'S LOCKED.
BETTER HEAD HOME.
NO WAY!
THIS IS THE PERFECT CHANCE
FOR ME TO TRY MY POWERS.
POWERS? WHAT POWERS?
I DON'T KNOW. I HAVEN'T
TRIED THEM YET.
ABRACADABRA.
OPEN SESAME?
AH, LET'S SEE...
BIG IRON LOCK THAT
KEEPS US OUT,
OPEN UP YOUR BIG IRON MOUTH!
YOU CALL THAT A SPELL?
OUT AND MOUTH
DON'T EVEN RHYME.
WILL YOU BE QUIET?
YOU COULDN'T OPEN A CAN OF DOG
FOOD WITH A SPELL LIKE THAT.
LOOK. I'M TRYING TO
CONCENTRATE HERE.
SOPHIE, HOW'D
YOU DO THAT?
I PUSHED.
PLUS, I WISHED THE LOCK
WOULD TURN INTO A FROG.
THIS SHOULD DO IT.
BUBBLE, BUBBLE,
TOIL AND TROUBLE.
SOMEBODY'S COMING.
HI, GRANDMA.
OH, MY STARS! HOW DID
YOU GET HERE?
ON THE BUS.
I CAME TO START MY
TRAINING, GRANDMA.
YOUR TRAIN-- OH, IT WAS
YOU OUTSIDE THE KITCHEN.
I THOUGHT I HEARD
SOMEONE LISTENING.
I SUPPOSE I COULD ASSUME
YOUR MOTHER DOESN'T
KNOW YOU'RE HERE.
I DARESAY THAT SHE'S
GONNA BE VERY UPSET
WHEN SHE FINDS YOU'RE GONE.
CAN'T WE JUST
CALL HER?
NO, NO, DEAR.
I'M AFRAID WE HAVEN'T WORKED
OUT LONG-DISTANCE CALLING
BETWEEN WORLDS YET.
NO. I'LL HAVE TO TAKE
YOU HOME MYSELF.
BUT YOU CAN'T
TAKE US HOME.
YEAH. WE WANT TO HELP
YOU FIGHT THE BAD THING.
YEAH, THE BAD THING
OR THE FORCE FIELD.
WHATEVER IT IS.
YOU SAID YOU NEEDED
ANOTHER CROMWELL WITCH.
THAT COULD BE ME.
YOU CAN TRAIN ME.
I SUPPOSE IT WOULD
BE ALL RIGHT
IF YOU COULD STAY A
LITTLE WHILE.
AS LONG AS WE GET YOU
HOME BEFORE MIDNIGHT IN
THE MORTAL WORLD.
BUT THAT'S ONLY TWO
HOURS FROM NOW.
WELL, DON'T PANIC, DEAR.
YOU SEE, TIME WORKS
DIFFERENTLY IN
HALLOWEENTOWN.
TWO HOURS THERE MIGHT
BE TWO DAYS HERE.
OR TWO WEEKS IF
WE'RE ON VACATION.
WHAT'S THIS, GRANDMA?
AH, YOU'VE DISCOVERED
THE WITCHES GLASS.
IT'S BEEN HANDED DOWN
THROUGH THE CROMWELL CLAN
OVER MANY GENERATIONS.
I'VE BEEN USING IT TO
KEEP MY EYE ON THINGS.
NOW THE GLASS SHOWS SOME
EVIL FORCES AT WORK
HERE IN HALLOWEENTOWN.
THE WORST IS YET TO COME.
HA HA HA HA HA!
WHAT CAN WE DO TO STOP IT?
I'LL SHOW YOU.
FOLLOW ME.
MERLIN HIMSELF USED
THIS TALISMAN
TO END THE DARK AGES OVER
IN THE MORTAL WORLD,
AND I THINK IT'S
JUST THE THING
TO TACKLE OUR TROUBLES
HERE IN HALLOWEENTOWN.
( Beeping )
ARE YOU COOKING
CHOWDER, GRANDMA?
I LIKE CHOWDER.
OH, NO, DEAR. THIS
IS WITCHES BREW.
IT'S A LITTLE RECIPE THAT I
PICKED UP IN THE 6th CENTURY,
AROUND KING ARTHUR'S TIME.
KING ARTHUR?
HOW'S THIS STUFF
GONNA HELP?
OH, BY BRINGING THIS
TALISMAN BACK TO LIFE.
PRETTY.
ARE YOU GONNA USE YOUR MAGIC
TO RAISE SOME SPIRITS,
HAVE A BIG SANCE,
AND CALL ON THE FORCES OF
DARKNESS TO GET IT GOING?
NO. I'M JUST GONNA FILL IT UP
AND SEE IF THE LIGHT GOES ON.
IF I CAN GET IT LIT
AND INSTALL IT PROPERLY,
IT SHOULD SUFFICE TO DRIVE
AWAY THIS FORCE
THAT THREATENS US.
THAT'S IT? YOU
JUST FILL IT UP?
I DO HAVE TO SAY
A SPELL OVER IT.
THAT'S WHY I CAME TO ASK
YOUR MOTHER TO HELP ME.
YOU SEE, SPELLS ARE
MUCH MORE POWERFUL
WHEN MORE THAN ONE
WITCH JOINS IN.
ESPECIALLY IF
THEY'RE CROMWELLS.
WELL, I'LL HELP YOU.
THAT'S VERY SWEET OF YOU,
DEAR,
BUT YOU HAVEN'T BEEN
TRAINED YET.
AND SINCE YOUR MOTHER ISN'T
OF THE MIND TO HELP,
I GUESS I'M JUST ON MY OWN.
( Chanting Spell )
OH, DRAT!
THAT'S WHAT I GET FOR
TRYING TO USE INSTANT.
IT JUST DOESN'T WORK
LIKE IT DOES
WHEN YOU MAKE IT FROM SCRATCH.
WELL, THAT'S SOMETHING
I CAN HELP YOU WITH.
I CAN COOK.
IF YOU COUNT POURING CEREAL.
OOW!
WELL, LET'S LOOK AT
THE ORIGINAL RECIPE.
COME OVER HERE.
LET'S SEE... THAT'S IT.
VAMPIRE'S FANG,
HAIR OF A WEREWOLF,
THE SWEAT OF
A GHOST.
I SUPPOSE WE COULD GET THESE
INGREDIENTS IN TOWN.
BUT WE HAVE TO BE
CAREFUL NOT TO REVEAL
OUR TRUE PURPOSE.
I CAN'T BE CERTAIN WHO
TO TRUST ANYMORE.
LET'S DO IT!
YEAH!
ALL RIGHT.
THEN IT'S SETTLED.
TV:
ARE YOU FIGHTING A LOSING
BATTLE WITH HAIR LOSS?
IS HAIR GROWING
EVERYWHERE BUT
WHERE YOU NEED IT?
STOP LOSING IT.
STOP THINNING.
START WINNING WITH OUR
SPECIAL FORMULA FOR
HAIR REPLACEMENT.
IT WORKS
LIKE MAGIC.
NOW THAT WORKS
JUST LIKE MAGIC.
DYLAN?
MARNIE? SOPHIE?
MOTHER!
IS THERE GONNA BE A HALLOWEEN
PARTY TODAY, GRANDMA?
EVERYBODY'S ALL DRESSED UP.
THIS IS THE WAY WE
ALWAYS DRESS, DEAR.
THE PEOPLE WHO STARTED
YOUR HALLOWEEN
JUST IMITATED
OUR TRADITIONS.
MORTALS SEE,
MORTALS DO.
THAT'S THE WAY YOUR
MOTHER RAN INTO YOUR
FATHER--
BY CRASHING A
HALLOWEEN PARTY.
HE LOVED HER
WITCHES COSTUME.
HELLO, AGGIE.
HELLO, SADIE.
WHAT ARE YOU SO
HAPPY ABOUT?
I THOUGHT YOU DIDN'T
WANT TO COME.
I DECIDED THIS
REALLY IS A DREAM.
SO WHY WORRY?
I LIKE HALLOWEEN PARTIES.
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO LIVE
SO FAR AWAY, GRANDMA?
WELL, THERE WAS A TIME
WHEN GHOULS AND MONSTERS
AND WITCHES AND VAMPIRES
AND ALL THE REST OF US
COULD BE TOGETHER.
THIS IS DARK TIME.
IT WAS A BAD MIX
BECAUSE HUMANS FEARED US
AND TRIED TO DESTROY US.
SO WE DID OUR BEST TO
MAKE THEM MISERABLE
IN RETURN.
BUT IT WAS TURNING US
EVIL, WHICH WE ARE NOT.
SO WE DECIDED TO
CREATE OUR OWN WORLD.
OH, KINDA LIKE WHEN MARNIE
AND I GOT SEPARATE ROOMS.
PRECISELY. AND
FROM THAT DAY ON
WE WERE ABLE TO SETTLE
DOWN AND HAVE HOMES AND
CHILDREN AND JOBS.
AND AN EXPERT BOWLING LEAGUE.
WE GET REALLY GOOD MOVIES.
LIKE "IT'S A WONDERFUL DEATH."
OH, CLOSED?
HARRIET.
THE MAYOR.
OH, CHILDREN...
CALABAR?
COULD I SPEAK TO
YOU FOR A MOMENT?
OF COURSE, WHA--
HELLO AGAIN, SOAPY.
SOPHIE.
OH, I THINK I HAVE
AN EXTRA SUNDAE.
AAH. HA HA HA.
CALABAR, I JUST RAN
INTO HARRIET,
AND SHE'S COMPLETELY CHANGED.
HER FACE-- SHE WAS
LIKE A WILD ANIMAL.
AND SHE WAS FINE A
COUPLE OF HOURS AGO.
REALLY?
THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN
TELLING YOU ABOUT.
IF SHE'S LIKE THE OTHERS,
THEN BY TOMORROW, SHE'LL
HAVE DISAPPEARED ALTOGETHER.
I HAVE TO APOLOGIZE
TO YOU, AGGIE.
I DIDN'T TAKE YOU
SERIOUSLY ABOUT THIS
THING AT FIRST.
I THINK YOU'VE UNCOVERED
SOMETHING VERY SERIOUS.
WHAT IS IT?
WHAT'S WRONG?
WELL, I DON'T HAVE
ALL THE DETAILS YET
BUT I DO KNOW ONE THING.
I WANT YOU TO LEAVE
THIS ALONE FOR NOW.
ESPECIALLY WITH
THE CHILDREN.
IT'S MUCH TOO DANGEROUS
FOR YOU TO BE INVOLVED
WITH BY YOURSELF.
PROMISE ME THAT?
YOU CROMWELLS ARE IMPOSSIBLE.
JUST GIVE ME TWO DAYS.
JUST TWO DAYS. THAT'S ALL.
COME ALONG, CHILDREN.
BUT LET'S BE REAL CAREFUL.
AND, MARNIE, NOT A WORD--
OH, MARNIE! SHE'S
FOUND THE BROOMS.
FLYING BROOMS! WOW!
WELL, MARNIE...
GRANDMA, LOOK AT
THESE THINGS.
YES, THERE A BIT
MORE SNAZZIER THAN
WHEN I WAS A GIRL.
CAN I GET ONE, PLEASE?
PLEASE, GRANDMA, PLEASE.
YES. WELL, IT IS THE
RITE OF PASSAGE
FOR WITCHES
YOUR AGE.
YES!
WELL, LOOKS LIKE YOU
GOT YOUR EYE ON
OUR WINDSWEEPER 5000.
IS THAT A GOOD ONE?
WELL, LET'S SEE HERE.
UNIBODY CONSTRUCTION.
WOOO! CHROME DETAILING.
A MICROCHIP
DIRECTIONAL SYSTEM.
IT'S THE TOP OF THE LINE.
IF YOU THINK
YOU CAN HANDLE IT.
HANDLE IT? THIS
IS A CROMWELL
YOU'RE TALKING
TO, DEAR.
SHE'LL BE AN EXPERT
IN NO TIME.
CHECK IT OUT.
WELL, HOW DO YOU MAKE IT GO?
YOU KNOW, BY MAGIC.
OH, RIGHT. I KNEW THAT.
HOW SWEET.
BUYING LITTLE MARLIE
HER FIRST BROOM, HUH?
IT'S MARNIE.
THIS IS A LOCAL
BOY. LUKE.
HEY, DON'T SELL ME TOO
SHORT THERE, GRAMMY.
I'M SOMETHING OF A BIG
CHEESE AROUND HERE.
MAYBE I COULD SHOW
YOU AROUND SOMETIME.
BUY YOU AN ICE CREAM.
THE ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN HAS A
LITTLE SHOP DOWN THE STREET.
YOU KNOW,
I WAS KIND OF HUNGRY,
BUT THEN I SMELLED
SOMETHING STINKY.
IT MUST'VE BEEN
THE BIG CHEESE.
PERHAPS ANOTHER TIME.
YEAH. LIKE NEVER.
YOU KNOW, IF YOU
PEOPLE WERE SMART,
YOU'D BE NICE TO ME.
I'M FRIENDS WITH SOME
VERY POWERFUL CREATURES
AROUND HERE, YOU KNOW.
OH, THAT LUKE DUDE,
HE'S TURNED INTO
SUCH A WEINER.
ALL RIGHT NOW,
IF YOU WANT TO BE
TOTALLY RAD,
YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE
THE DAY-GLO BRISTLES.
NOW, THE PURPLE DRAGONFLY
HERE,
IT'S AWESOME,
BUT I PREFER METALLIC
BLUE MYSELF.
THIS ONE. IT'S PERFECT.
CAN I GET IT, GRANDMA? PLEASE?
WELL, DO YOU WANT ME TO
WRAP THAT UP FOR YOU?
NO. WE'LL FLY IT OUT.
WOOOOO!
GRANDMA, THIS IS SO
TOTALLY COOL.
WELL, THERE'S A REASON
WHY WITCHES DON'T DRIVE
MINIVANS.
WHAT KIND OF MAGIC
MAKES IT GO?
MAGIC IS REALLY
VERY SIMPLE.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO
IS WANT SOMETHING
AND THEN LET
YOURSELF HAVE IT.
HANG ON TIGHT.
LET'S SEE WHAT
THIS CAN DO.
WHOOOO!
WOOOO!
WHAT A WITCHES'
LIFE IT IS.
HI, GUYS!
YEAH, GRANDMA! ME NEXT!
I DON'T THINK SO.
MOMMY!
I'M SORRY IF WE
WORRIED YOU, DEAR.
I WAS GONNA GET
THEM BACK JUST AS SOON
AS I POSSIBLY THOUGHT--
MOTHER, I CANNOT BELIEVE
THAT YOU BROUGHT THEM
HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE!
WELL, I DIDN'T.
THEY CAME TO SEE ME.
I WANTED TO HELP
GRANDMA FIGHT THE
BAD THING.
AND I CAME TO GET MY TRAINING.
TRAINING?
AND I TRIED TO STOP THEM, MOM,
BUT THEY HYPNOTIZED ME.
AND I THOUGHT
YOU WERE BRAVE.
HEY, THIS IS MOM.
STOP IT. I DON'T WANT TO
HEAR ANY MORE EXCUSES.
I WANT YOU ALL TO GET
BACK ON THAT BUS
BECAUSE WE ARE GOING HOME.
BUT, MOM, GRANDMA NEEDS HELP.
AND SINCE YOU WON'T HELP HER,
SHE NEEDS THE ONLY OTHER
CROMWELL WITCH THERE IS.
ME.
YOU ARE NOT A WITCH.
OH, YES I AM,
NO THANKS TO YOU.
YOU WERE GONNA LET MY
POWERS GO AWAY FOREVER.
MARNIE, THERE'S SO MUCH
MORE INVOLVED IN THIS
THAN YOU UNDERSTAND.
I UNDERSTAND THAT I AM HERE.
AND I'VE GOT A BROOM,
AND I'M GONNA LEARN EVERYTHING
THAT GRANDMA CAN TEACH ME.
YOU WILL NOT!
IT'S HER BIRTHRIGHT.
SHE WAS BORN IN
THE HUMAN WORLD
AND HUMAN IS
WHAT SHE'LL BE.
NO, I WON'T.
YOU PUT THAT BROOM DOWN
RIGHT NOW, YOUNG LADY.
YOU ARE GROUNDED.
SAY GOODBYE TO
GRANDMA, EVERYBODY.
IT'S TIME FOR US TO GO HOME.
BYE, GRANDMA.
BYE.
MARNIE?
THANKS, GRANDMA.
IT WAS A GREAT RIDE.
C'MON, SWEETIE.
THERE'S NOTHING
WRONG WITH MY TIE!
JUST LOOK AT IT.
I CAN'T LOOK AT IT WITHOUT
TAKING MY HEAD OFF!
I'M NEVER TALKING TO
YOU AGAIN, YOU KNOW.
YOU MAKE MY LIFE MISERABLE.
EXCUSE ME.
YOU DRINKING ALL THIS
CAFFEINE IS GIVING ME
A HEADACHE.
IT'S UPSETTING MY STOMACH
AND I'M SO TIRED IF IT.
YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW
WHICH HAND IS-- OOW!
EXCUSE ME.
WHAT? WHAT?
EXCUSE ME. WILL YOU PLEASE
TELL ME WHAT TIME
THE NEXT BUS LEAVES TO
THE MORTAL WORLD?
BUS?
WHICH BUS?
MORTAL WORLD?
IS THAT THE
NUMBER SIX?
IT'S THE ONLY ONE WE GOT.
HEY, THAT MY ESPRESSO.
NO, NO, NO. HEY--
I'M NEVER GOING
TO SCHOOL AGAIN.
AND I'M GONNA MOVE SOME
PLACE REALLY FAR AWAY
AND JOIN A MOTORCYCLE GANG.
MARNIE, THIS IS
NOT OUR WORLD!
NOW DROP IT!
EXCUSE ME.
I'M ON BREAK!
WELL, IT USED
TO BE YOUR WORLD.
ARE YOU GONNA GET
TIRED OF US TOO?
OH, SORRY. THOSE
AREN'T MY KIDS.
THEY USED TO
BE MY KIDS,
BUT I'VE MOVED ON.
MARNIE, NOT NOW!
YOU HAVE THE SCHEDULE.
I DON'T HAVE
THE SCHEDULE.
WHY DO I HAVE TO DO
EVERYTHING AROUND HERE?
EXCUSE ME.
WHAT ABOUT THE BUS?
IT'LL BE SEVERAL HOURS.
ENGINE TROUBLE.
YEAH, THAT'S IT.
IT'LL BE FINE. DON'T
WORRY ABOUT IT.
WELL, WHATTAYA KNOW?
THE BUS ISN'T RUNNING.
I GUESS WE CAN'T
LEAVE AFTER ALL.
YAY!
THERE MUST BE SOME WAY.
HEY, THE MAYOR SEEMS
LIKE A NICE GUY.
MAYBE HE CAN HELP.
DYLAN!
OOW!
THAT'S A VERY GOOD IDEA.
LET'S GO.
I DON'T CARE IF THE BUS
IS COMING OR NOT.
THAT'S NOT OUR JOB.
WHAT DO YOU
KNOW ABOUT?
THERE YOU GO WITH THE
CAFFEINE AGAIN!
WHAT'S WRONG WITH
THE CAFFEINE?
YOU'RE KILLING ME.
( Bell Chiming )
( Cawing )
SOMEONE HERE TO SEE YOU, BOSS.
( Whistles )
GWEN!
CALABAR.
YOU'RE THE MAYOR?
WELL, I'M A-- YES.
YOU DIDN'T HEAR
ABOUT THE ELECTION?
NO.
IT'S JUST A
TITLE, REALLY.
I HAVE BIG PLANS FOR ALL OF
US HERE IN HALLOWEENTOWN.
YOU ARE THE LAST PERSON I
EVER EXPECTED TO SEE HERE.
IT'S BEEN A
LONG TIME.
YOU ALWAYS DID LET YOUR
MAGIC DO THE TALKING.
THANK YOU.
YOU USED TO LIKE IT.
OR HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN
THAT PART?
UH, NO.
WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
I HAVE NO IDEA.
YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS
HOPED YOU'D COME
BACK.
NOW HERE YOU ARE.
SAY, I OUGHT TO
SHOW YOU AROUND.
WE COULD TAKE THE
STICKS RIVER CRUISE,
HAVE A LITTLE DINNER,
AND I COULD SHOW YOU
ALL OUR OLD HAUNTS.
UH, ACTUALLY, I'M
TRYING TO LEAVE.
IT SEEMS THE BUS WAS
DELAYED, AND I WAS HOPING...
YOU WERE HOPING THE
MAYOR COULD HELP YOU
OUT.
I'M SORRY.
EXCUSE ME, SIR.
I'LL GET RIGHT TO THE POINT.
I HAVE A VERY URGENT MESSAGE.
SOMEBODY'S ON PINS
AND NEEDLES.
PINS AND NEEDLES.
HA HA HA HA!
THIS IS AN EMERGENCY.
WON'T TAKE LONG.
JUST STAY PUT.
I'LL SEE WHAT I CAN DO
FOR YOU WHEN I RETURN.
THANK YOU.
WHAT WAS THAT
ALL ABOUT?
WELL, OBVIOUSLY, HE'S
MOM'S OLD BOYFRIEND.
MARNIE.
I GUESS YOU LIKE MAGIC
WHEN HE DOES IT, HUH?
THAT'S ENOUGH.
AND IF YOU MARRY HIM, I
AM NOT CALLING HIM DAD.
I'M NOT MARRYING
ANYONE, AND THIS
DISCUSSION IS OVER.
WE'RE GOING HOME.
GO AWAY, LUKE.
I'M NOT IN THE MOOD.
FAMILY TROUBLE, HUH, GRAMMY?
GUESS IT'S JUST YOU AGAIN.
YOU KNOW, IT MUST GET
PRETTY FRUSTRATING,
FIGHTING THIS THING
ALL ALONE,
NO ONE BELIEVING YOU.
WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT THAT?
I KNOW YOU'VE GOT
MERLIN'S TALISMAN.
AND HE WANTS IT.
HE? WHO IS HE?
YOU DON'T KNOW, HUH?
THAT'S FUNNY, BECAUSE HE
KNOWS ALL ABOUT YOU.
AND ABOUT THAT
BREW YOU'VE BEEN
WORKING ON TOO.
WELL, IF HE'S SO POWERFUL,
WHY IS HE HIDING?
WHY DOESN'T HE
REVEAL HIMSELF?
YOU SEE, THAT'S WHY I'M HERE.
HE WANTS TO REVEAL HIMSELF.
TO YOU.
C'MON, GRAMMY,
ADMIT IT.
YOU'RE DYING TO KNOW, RIGHT?
OR IS THE BIG, POWERFUL
CROMWELL WITCH AFRAID?
I DON'T FEAR HIM
OR ANY CREATURE.
TAKE ME TO HIM.
BUT, MOM, YOU CAN GO
HOME IF YOU WANT TO.
I MEAN, SOPHIE PROBABLY
DOESN'T BELONG HERE,
AND DYLAN THINKS HE'S
HALLUCINATING, ANYWAY.
I'LL BE ALL
RIGHT BY MYSELF.
MARNIE, YOU'RE 13.
BUT ALL THE OTHER WITCHES
GET TO DO ALL KINDS OF STUFF
WHEN THEY'RE 13.
JUST BECAUSE YOUR
GRANDMOTHER SAID THAT
YOU WERE A WITCH
DOESN'T MAKE YOU ONE.
SHE DIDN'T HAVE TO TELL ME.
I COULD FEEL IT.
I AM A WITCH, RIGHT?
RIGHT?
SHH.
SO IT'S TRUE.
I AM A WITCH.
WELL, HOW COME
I NEVER KNEW?
ALL THIS WEIRD STUFF
THAT'S BEEN HAPPENING TO
SOPHIE,
DID THAT STUFF
HAPPEN TO ME?
YES.
YES, YOU SHOWED SIGNS
OF HAVING POWERS,
AND I HID THEM FROM YOU,
JUST LIKE I AM DOING
WITH SOPHIE.
AND I DID IT FOR YOU.
BECAUSE THIS IS
NOT YOUR WORLD.
YOUR FATHER WAS HUMAN,
AND THAT'S THE WORLD
THAT WE LIVE IN.
PERIOD.
LOOK. IF YOU WANT TO
GIVE UP YOUR ROOTS,
THAT'S FINE,
BUT I DON'T.
AND IT'S NOT RIGHT FOR
YOU TO TRY TO MAKE ME.
LOOK. GRANDMA'S GOING
SOMEWHERE WITH THE
WEINER DUDE.
I'VE GOT TO HELP GRANDMA.
MARNIE, YOU GET BACK HERE!
GUYS, COME ON.
WHY DO THE TROUBLE MAKERS
GET ALL THE ATTENTION?
HARRIET?
HA HA HA HA HA HA!
WELCOME TO MY MUSEUM.
HA HA HA HA HA HA!
SO THIS IS WHY SO MANY
HAVE DISAPPEARED.
FIRST, YOU PUT THEM
UNDER AN EVIL SPELL
AND THEN YOU TURN THEM
INTO STATUES.
NO. NOT STATUES.
THEY'RE VERY MUCH ALIVE,
MERELY FROZEN IN TIME
UNTIL I NEED THEM.
TO DO WHAT?
DESTROY OUR WORLD?
I KNOW YOU HAVE
MERLIN'S TALISMAN.
GIVE IT TO ME!
I DO HAVE THE TALISMAN,
AND SOON, YOUR HOLD OVER
THE CREATURES OF HALLOWEENTOWN
WILL BE BROKEN FOREVER!
NO, YOU FOOLISH WITCH!
DO YOU THINK YOUR MAGIC IS
MORE POWERFUL THAN MINE?
HA HA. YEAH, AS IF
THAT COULD HAPPEN.
THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN
DO TO STOP ME!
ZIP, NADA, ZERO, GOOSE EGG.
I WILL BEND THE CREATURES
OF THIS WORLD TO MY WILL!
ONE BY ONE!
TWO BY TWO AND THREE BY THREE.
WILL YOU SHUT UP!
SORRY.
GIVE ME THE TALISMAN!
NEVER!
THEN SUFFER THE
CONSEQUENCES.
NO!
GO!
YOU SAID SHE'D BE SAFE!
YOU CANNOT ESCAPE ME,
OLD WOMAN!
THE CREATURE HASN'T BEEN BORN
THAT'S QUICK ENOUGH
TO CATCH A CROMWELL.
MOTHER!
GRANDMA!
GET THEM!
LEAVE MY FAMILY ALONE!
I'M OUTTA HERE.
WASTREL YOUTH!
BE THEE VANQUISHED
BY MY POWERS.
I SAID POWERS, NOT FLOWERS.
WAY TO GO, MOM!
THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE!
GIVE ME THE TALISMAN!
NEVER!
KEEP YOUR BROTHER
AND SISTER BACK!
MOM!
GWEN.
SLEEP NOW, AGATHA CROMWELL.
AND WHEN YOU AWAKE,
I WILL BE YOUR MASTER.
NO!
COME ON!
WE'VE GOT TO
SAVE THEM!
WE CAN'T SAVE THEM UNLESS
WE SAVE OURSELVES FIRST!
COME ON!
AHHHH!
MARNIE.
GRANDMA!
WE'LL BE ALL RIGHT. GO.
IT'S JUST AN EVIL SPELL
THAT FREEZES US.
GO.
MARNIE, LET'S GO!
OOH!
WHAT ARE WE DOING? WE GOTTA
GET BACK TO GRANDMA'S HOUSE!
NO. NOT YET.
ARE YOU CRAZY? THAT
SHADOW THING
IS GONNA TURN US
INTO STATUES.
IT ISN'T GONNA
FOLLOW US.
DIDN'T YOU SEE? IT
CAN'T STAND THE LIGHT.
I WANT MOMMY AND GRANDMA.
DON'T WORRY.
YOUR BIG SISTER IS GONNA GET
MOMMY AND GRANDMA BACK.
YOU ARE?
WELL, DUH.
OF COURSE I AM.
BUT THERE'S SOME THINGS
WE NEED TO GET FIRST.
YOU'RE GONNA DO SOME SHOPPING?
CAN'T THIS WAIT?
NO. WE HAVE TO FINISH
THAT WITCHES BREW.
GETTING THE TALISMAN LIT
IS OUR ONLY CHANCE OF
SAVING MOM AND GRANDMA.
HERE, I COPIED
THE INGREDIENTS FROM
GRANDMA'S COOKBOOK.
"HAIR OF A WEREWOLF,
SWEAT OF A GHOST"?
COME ON, DYLAN.
WE'RE CROMWELLS.
TOGETHER WE CAN
CONQUER ANYTHING.
I DUNNO.
COME ON.
TAKE A GANDER.
LOOK AT YOU, SWEETHEART.
YOU ARE COMING ALONG LIKE
A GRAND PRIZE, BABY.
OH, IT'S WORKING NICELY.
WE'RE GONNA START BY
CONQUERING BAD HAIR?
WELL, HE IS A
WEREWOLF.
CAN I HELP YOU KIDS?
OH, YEAH. I WAS
JUST WONDERING
IF YOU HAD ANY PART-TIME
JOBS AVAILABLE.
MAYBE LIKE AFTER
SCHOOL OR SOMETHING?
NO, NO. I'M SORRY. WE DON'T.
OH, THIS SULFURIC
ACID TREATMENT
IS COMING ALONG NICELY.
IT'S REALLY GONNA
SPLIT YOUR ENDS
AND BRING OUT THOSE
ROOTS, BABY.
BUT I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO
BECOME A BEAUTY TECHNICIAN.
CAREFUL. CAREFUL.
SHE'S AN HERB, NOT A SHRUB.
THINK SALAD, LIGHT AND CRISPY.
I COULD REALLY BE A HELP,
MAYBE SWEEPING THE
TRIMMINGS AROUND THE SHOP.
MAYBE EVEN DOING SOME
KIND OF HAIR STYLING.
DON'T TOUCH THAT, OK?
DON'T WORRY. I USE ONE OF
THESE ALL THE TIME, OK?
THE OTHER BUTTON!
TURN IT OFF!
WILL YOU PLEASE TURN IT OFF?
I'LL GET IT OFF. OK.
NO, NO, NO. THE OTHER BUTTON.
IT'S ONLY TO BE USED BY
TRAINED PROFESSIONALS.
SO JUST PUT THE THING DOWN.
I GOT IT, I GOT IT.
THE OTHER BUTTON.
PUT THE THING DOWN.
OOOOOW!
HEY! HEY! HEY!
CALL ME IF YOU NEED ME.
COME BACK HERE, YOU LITTLE--
HEY, THIS COULD BE A
GOOD LOOK FOR ME.
YEAH, BABY!
RAAAA. TURN AROUND.
TURN AND TURN
AND NUMBER TWO
AND TURN AND TURN
AND STIR THE CALDRON.
IN THREE, WITH YOUR LEFT HAND.
NOW WE'RE GONNA STROKE
AND STROKE.
KEEP THOSE HIPS MOVING.
AND STROKE. KEEP
ON GOING NOW.
STROKE. AND, DOGS,
NO SLOBBERING.
STROKE AND STROKE.
KEEP ON GOING NOW.
THERE'S GOTTA BE A GHOST
AROUND HERE SOMEPLACE.
COME ON.
IT'S SNOTMAN.
GHOSTS ARE DEAD. WHY WOULD
THEY WORRY ABOUT FITNESS?
LOOK! A REAL GHOST!
AND A REAL SWEATBOX.
DISTRACT HIM LONG ENOUGH
SO I CAN GET THE SWEAT.
WOULD YOU GET A GRIP?
HE CAN'T SWEAT. HE
DOESN'T HAVE A BODY.
JUST DISTRACT HIM.
SO, DID YOU KNOW THAT SEA
MONKEYS ARE ACTUALLY SHRIMP?
NO.
KEEP GOING.
UH, DID YOU KNOW THAT
THERE'S NO PROPER NAME
FOR THE BACK OF THE KNEE?
YOU DON'T SAY.
WOOOO WOOOOO
VERY FUNNY, KID.
NOW GO BACK TO YOUR MUMMY.
WOOOO WOOOO WOOOO
HEY, KID, I DON'T
APPRECIATE STEREOTYPES
LIKE THAT, ALL RIGHT?
WOOO WOOOO WOOO
SURE, SURE. MAKE FUN OF
THE TRANSPARENT GUY.
JUST 'CAUSE YOU CAN
SEE THROUGH US
DOESN'T MEAN WE
DON'T HAVE FEELINGS.
WOO, IS IT GETTIN'
HOT IN HERE!
HADES WAS NOTHING
COMPARED TO THIS.
CAN I GET SOME HELP OVER HERE?
I'M BURNING UP!
ATTENDANT!
YES!
GOT IT! COME ON!
ATTENDANT!
ATTENDANT!
THANKS.
ATTENDANT!
ATTENDANT!
AAAH! AAH! AAAA!
OH, MY. I'M AFRAID
THAT ONE'S GONNA
HAVE TO COME OUT.
IS IT GOING TO HURT?
DON'T HURT ME, DOCTOR.
I'M NOT VERY GOOD WITH PAIN.
NOW, NOW, DON'T WORRY.
YOU WON'T FEEL A THING.
WOW, DOC, THAT
DIDN'T HURT AT ALL.
WELL, AFTER ALL, I
AM THE TOOTH FAIRY.
HA HA HA HA.
THE VAMPIRE'S FANG. YES!
THERE SHE IS. COME ON.
I GOT IT! I GOT IT!
SAY THERE, IF IT AIN'T
THE CROMWELL KIDS.
I HEAR YOUR MOTHER'S IN TOWN.
YEAH, SHE'S HANGING OUT
WITH OUR GRANDMA.
WE JUST CAME TO DO A
LITTLE SHOPPING,
BUT WE'RE DONE
NOW. SO, BYE.
I GOTTA FARE OUT
THAT WAY ANYWAY,
WHY DON'T YOU LET ME
GIVE YOU A LIFT?
ON THE HOUSE.
THAT WOULD BE
GREAT. THANKS.
WHAT IS IT, SOPHIE?
THE BAD THING IS IN HIM.
WHAT?
LITTLE KIDS. WHAT AN
IMAGINATION, HUH?
COME ON. GET IN. I GOTTA GO.
WAIT. WHO TOLD YOU
OUR MOM WAS HERE?
HEY, WHAT'S WITH THE
THIRD DEGREE HERE?
GET IN THE CAB!
AAAAH!
HEY, LET HIM GO!
LET ME GO!
LET HIM GO!
YOU LITTLE CROMWELL PUNK!
YOU THINK YOU'RE SO SMART.
WHAT ARE YOU
DOING?
FETCH THE BONE.
YAAAAAA!
NOT THE DOG!
THANKS, SOPH.
COME ON. LET'S
GET GOING.
ALL RIGHT, HERE IT IS.
VAMPIRE FANG, GHOST'S SWEAT,
WEREWOLF HAIR A LA MODE.
WHAT ARE YOU
WAITING FOR?
I CAN'T REMEMBER
GRANDMA'S SPELL.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, YOU
CAN'T REMEMBER?
IT WAS OLD ENGLISH
OR WELSH OR SOMETHING.
GIVE ME A BREAK I HAVE
TROUBLE REMEMBERING AGUA.
I THOUGHT YOU SAID
YOU WERE A WITCH.
THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS
REMEMBER A DUMB SPELL.
OK, OK.
BETTY MARCH, BETTY GUNTHER,
BETTY GUGGENHEIM IS
ALL THAT'S BID.
OK, UH, BETTER MARCH,
BETTER GET THERE,
BETTER GET GOING BEFORE
THERE'S NO MORE BEDS.
THAT'S THE BEST YOU CAN DO?
WHY DIDN'T YOU WRITE
IT DOWN OR--
( Mumbling Spell )
WHAT IS IT, SOPH?
BA KE MA,
BA KE KE FEER,
BA KE KE YA.
( Continues spell )
THAT'S IT!
HOW DID YOU REMEMBER
IT, SOPH?
IT SOUNDED PRETTY, SO I
MADE UP A SONG FOR IT.
♪♪ BA KE MA ♪♪
♪♪ BA KE KE FEER ♪♪
I LIKE TO MAKE UP SONGS.
YOU KNOW, GRANDMA SAYS
THAT SPELLS ARE STRONGER
WHEN YOU HAVE MORE
THAN ONE WITCH.
YOU WANNA HELP ME?
OK.
OK.
BA KE MA
BA KE KE FEER
BA KE KE YA...
OH, DRATS.
IT'S NOT WORKING!
NOW WHAT?
GRANDMA SAYS THAT
SPELLS ARE SIMPLE.
YOU JUST HAVE TO WANT IT
AND THEN LET YOURSELF HAVE IT.
OK. LET'S DO IT.
BA KE MA
BA KE KE FEER
BA KE KE YA
YOU DID IT, YOU GUYS!
IT'S LIT!
I DID IT!
WE DID IT! WE'RE WITCHES.
YOU CAN CELEBRATE LATER.
C'MON, LET'S GET
OUT OF HERE!
KEEP THE DOOR OPEN.
DUH.
IS SHE GONNA BE OK?
I THINK SO. I CAN HEAR
HER HEART BEATING.
GRANDMA TOO.
IT'S THE BAD THING.
WORK, YOU DUMB THING! WORK!
WHY ISN'T IT WORKING?
I DON'T KNOW.
GRANDMA SAID SOMETHING
ABOUT INSTALLING IT.
WHAT? INSTALLING IT?
INSTALLING IT WHERE?
MORTAL SEE, MORTAL DO.
WHAT?
DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT GRANDMA
SAID ABOUT OUR TRADITIONS
BEING AN IMITATION OF THEIRS?
WHAT ABOUT IT?
WELL, WHEN IT'S
DARK ON HALLOWEEN,
WHERE DO YOU PUT THE CANDLE?
COME ON.
YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!
YOU'RE NOT ACTUALLY
THINKING OF GOING
INTO THAT THING?
I HAVE TO.
IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO
SAVE MOM AND GRANDMA.
WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?
STAY HERE.
AND WISH ME LUCK.
GOOD LUCK, MARNIE.
GOOD LUCK.
MARNIE, IT'S A TRAP.
HE'S WAITING FOR YOU.
OUTTA MY WAY, LUKE.
LOOK. ABOUT WHAT
HAPPENED EARLIER,
I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS GONNA DO
THAT TO YOUR MOM AND GRANDMA.
SAVE YOUR TRICKS,
TWERP, OK? I'M BUSY.
NO. I SWEAR.
HE SAID ALL HE WANTED
WAS THE TALISMAN
AND THAT HE'D LET
YOUR GRANDMA GO.
I SAID, GET OUT OF MY WAY!
HE'S COMING.
I HAVE RETURNED!
YOUR MOMENT OF DESTINY
HAS ARRIVED.
I OFFER YOU THE CHANCE
TO RETURN TO OUR
DAYS OF GLORY.
TO END THIS EXILE FROM
THE MORTAL WORLD,
WHICH THE HUMANS HAVE
STOLEN FROM US.
FOLLOW ME, MY FELLOW
CITIZENS OF HALLOWEENTOWN.
TOO LONG HAVE WE BEEN EXILED
TO THIS SECOND-CLASS WORLD,
FORCED TO LIVE HERE IN
THIS HALLOWEENTOWN!
I'VE GOT TO INSTALL THIS
THING BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
NO. HE'LL SEE YOU.
YOU'LL END UP JUST
LIKE THE OTHERS.
...TO CELEBRATE EVIL.
TO REVEAL OURSELVES AS
WE REALLY ARE.
CALABAR?
I CAN'T BELIEVE MOM
DATED THAT GUY.
FOLLOW ME
AND TOGETHER WE WILL
RECLAIM THE MORTAL WORLD,
WHICH IS RIGHTFULLY OURS.
YOU KNEW?
LOOK. I MADE AN
AWFUL MISTAKE.
SO I'M GONNA TRY AND
MAKE UP FOR IT.
IT'S OUR ONLY CHANCE.
BUT BEFORE WE CAN BE
SURE OF SUCCESS,
WE MUST FIND THE ONE
WHO WOULD STOP US.
THE ONE WHO IS HALF HUMAN.
OH, YOUNG CROMWELL.
YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD
HIDE FROM ME?
STOP. GIVE ME THE TALISMAN.
I SAID STOP!
GIVE ME THE TALISMAN!
HOW DARE YOU DISOBEY ME?
FOOLED YA.
NOOOOO!!!!
AAH!
HE GOT HER AND
IT'S NOT WORKING!
WE'VE LOST. WE'VE-- OOW!
HA HA HA HA!
YOU SEE, MY FRIENDS,
THE POWER OF EVIL IS
STRONGER THAN GOOD.
JOIN ME.
JOIN ME.
YOU'RE NOT A WITCH.
OH, YES, I AM,
NO THANKS TO YOU.
THERE'S NOTHING
SPECIAL ABOUT ME.
OH, YOU'RE VERY
SPECIAL. YOU'RE A
CROMWELL.
MAGIC IS REALLY VERY SIMPLE.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS
WANT SOMETHING
AND THEN LET YOURSELF HAVE IT.
IT'S WORKING!
GWEN.
MOTHER!
GWEN, THE CHILDREN.
YOU DID IT!
GOOD GOING.
YOU'VE GOT MORE THAN
THE WEIRD PART DOWN.
OOW! OH, MOM!
OH, THANK GOODNESS!
GRANDMA!
OH, THANK GOODNESS,
YOU'RE OK.
YOU'VE GOT ALL THE POWER
OF THE CROMWELLS
AND TWICE THE GUTS.
GRANDMA, IT WAS CALABAR.
WHAT?
SO IT WAS YOU!
WHY, CALABAR?
YOU COULD HAVE HAD ME.
THE MOST POWERFUL
WARLOCK OF ALL.
YOU COULD HAVE RULED WITH ME
AS MY QUEEN,
BUT YOU CHOSE A HUMAN INSTEAD.
WELL, IT TURNS OUT
SHE'S A PRETTY GOOD
JUDGE OF CHARACTER.
YOUR DAYS OF RULE ARE
AT AN END, CALABAR.
DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE ME,
AGATHA.
HA HA HA HA HA!
NOW MY DARKNESS WILL
SPREAD UNCHECKED!
AND I WILL BE RULER
OF BOTH WORLDS!
HA HA HA HA HA!
( Chanting Spell )
DON'T WASTE YOUR
ENERGIES, WITCHES!
YOUR PRECIOUS TALISMAN...
MAN, THAT JERK!
I'D LIKE TO...
I'D LIKE TO...
DYLAN!
WHAT?
LOOKS LIKE WE JUST ADDED
ANOTHER WITCH TO THE FAMILY.
OR SHOULD I SAY WARLOCK?
NO WAY!
I DON'T HAVE ANY POWERS.
I'M THE NORMAL ONE
IN THIS FAMILY.
HEY, CHOCOLATE BAR!
YOU BETTER GIVE THAT
TALISMAN BACK
OR YOU'RE IN BIG TROUBLE.
YOU HALF-HUMAN BRAT!
YOU THINK YOUR MAGIC IS
ANY MATCH FOR MINE?
HMMM, NO.
BUT, LET'S SEE. MY
POWERS AND MY MOM'S
AND MY GRANDMOTHER'S
AND MY SISTER'S
AND MY BROTHER'S MIGHT DO IT.
HIT IT, GUYS!
HA HA HA HA HA HA!
SILLY WITCHES!
YOU CROMWELLS HAVE FAILED!
HA HA HA HA!
COME ON, DYLAN. WE NEED YOU.
BELIEVE.
NO!
NO!
NOOO!!!!
OH!
OH, YOU DID A FABULOUS JOB!
ALL OF YOU!
I'M SO PROUD OF YOU.
MOM?
YES, SWEETHEART?
YOU WERE RIGHT.
THERE WAS A LOT ABOUT
HALLOWEENTOWN THAT I
DIDN'T UNDERSTAND.
AND I'M SORRY ABOUT THE
THINGS I SAID AND DID.
AND I'M SORRY THAT I
DIDN'T TRUST YOU.
YOU ARE EVERYTHING I COULD
HAVE EVER HOPED
FOR IN A DAUGHTER
AND SO MUCH MORE.
OH, MY, YOU'VE GOT QUITE
A COVEN HERE, MY DEAR.
AND I THOUGHT THEY WERE
A HANDFUL BEFORE.
HEY, IT WASN'T ME.
THAT STUFF COMING
OUT OF MY FINGERTIPS
WAS PROBABLY JUST
STATIC ELECTRICITY.
OR MAYBE THAT AURORA
BOREALIS THING
I WAS READING ABOUT.
I FORGOT ABOUT LUKE.
LUKE?
HI.
WOW.
SO THIS IS THE REAL YOU?
WANNA KNOW THE
WORST PART?
I WASN'T EVEN UNDER
A SPELL OR ANYTHING.
I DID WHAT I DID BECAUSE
HE MADE ME HANDSOME.
I GUESS IT WASN'T MUCH
OF A REASON FOR BEING
ALL EVIL AND ALL, HUH?
ESPECIALLY, SINCE WHEN
I WAS GOOD LOOKING,
I DIDN'T HAVE A CHANCE
TO GET TO DATE WITH YOU.
TO DATE?
YEAH, IT WAS STUPID.
WOW.
I GUESS I DIDN'T TURN INTO A
HANDSOME PRINCE THOUGH, HUH?
NO. BUT YOU DID THAT BEFORE
WHEN YOU DECIDED TO HELP ME.
I NEVER COULD HAVE
DONE IT WITHOUT YOU.
THANKS.
HEY, IF YOU EVER COME
BACK TO HALLOWEENTOWN,
LOOK ME UP.
I'LL DO THAT.
GREAT.
MARNIE, WE HAVE TO GO.
LUKE, WE HAVE A
JOB FOR YOU.
AND I SUPPOSE I HAVE TO GIVE
THE CHILDREN BACK NOW.
YOU KNOW, MOTHER,
I HAVE TO ADMIT YOU'RE
REALLY VERY GOOD WITH THEM.
THANK YOU.
I WAS THINKING. I COULD USE A
BABY-SITTER ON THURSDAY
NIGHTS.
MY PTA MEETINGS, SOMETIMES
THEY GO ON FOREVER.
WELL, DEAR, YOU KNOW
I CAN'T CROSS OVER.
ONLY ON HALLOWEEN NIGHTS.
HMMM. WELL, THEN I GUESS
YOU'RE JUST GONNA HAVE
TO COME LIVE WITH US.
THAT IS, IF YOU WANT TO.
GRANDMA'S GONNA COME
LIVE WITH US?
OH, THAT'LL BE SO COOL!
I CAN SHOW YOU
ALL MY BOOKS.
AND I HAVE ALL THE
FRANKENSTEIN MOVIES
ON VIDEO.
AND THEN YOU CAN
SHOW ME HOW TO--
OH, NO! WHERE'S MY BROOM?
OH, DON'T PANIC, DEAR.
DON'T PANIC.
( Whistles )
IT FOLLOWS ME EVERYWHERE.
OPEN IT UP. OPEN IT UP.
MY BROOM!
I THOUGHT WE COULD
CONTINUE YOUR STUDIES.
AH, NO.
WHAT?
I'M GONNA BE FINISHING
YOUR TRAINING.
ALL ABOARD FOR
THE MORTAL WORLD!
ALL ABOARD. ALL ABOARD.
COME ON. THE SMALLEST FIRST.
I'M GONNA FIGURE OUT HOW
THIS THING WORKS.
YOU'VE GOT THE BAG.
WATCH YOUR STEP.
BYE.
BYE.
THANKS, KIDS.
SEE YOU IN THE AFTERLIFE. HA!
BYE, BENNY.
SEE YA LATER.
I CAN FEEL IT IN
MY BONES. HA!
SEE YA.
