[BELLS CHIMING]
[♪♪♪]
THIS IS IT.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF
OUR NEW HOME, JEFFREY?
I TOLD YOU
SHE WAS A BEAUT.
I DON'T KNOW.
IT LOOKS KIND OF CREEPY.
WHY COULDN'T WE HAVE GOTTEN
A NORMAL-LOOKING HOUSE?
WE LOVE THIS HOUSE.
IT'S GOT HAS CHARM.
I'VE GOT A FEELING
GREAT THINGS ARE GOING
TO HAPPEN FOR US HERE,
BUDDY BOY.
COME ON.
AND THIS... IS YOUR BEDROOM.
PRETTY AWESOME.
DAD, THIS IS A BABY'S ROOM!
WELL, DON'T WORRY.
I MEAN, WE CAN FIX IT UP
JUST THE WAY YOU LIKE IT.
OKAY, YOU HANG OUT HERE
AND I'M GOING TO GO
CHECK ON THE MOVERS.
HEY, LOOK. LOOKS LIKE
IT WON'T BE TOO HARD
TO MAKE NEW FRIENDS.
WHY ARE THEY
ALL STARING AT US?
THEY'RE PROBABLY
JUST SHY.
YOU SHOULD GO SAY HI.
[SIGHS]
COME ON, DON'T BE
SUCH A WUSS.
HEY, I'M JEFFREY.
CHUCK.
WHY DID THEY ALL RUN OFF?
'CAUSE YOU MOVED
INTO THAT HOUSE.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT?
ASK THE OLD MAN THAT
USED TO LIVE THERE.
OH, YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.
YOU CAN'T. HE'S DEAD.
[MOTHER]:
CHUCK! GET IN HERE!
HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE
TO CALL YOU TO DINNER?
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
BEEN NICE KNOWING YOU.
MOM? DAD?
HEY, HAVE YOU SEEN
THE OTHER ONE OF THESE?
I HAD TWO.
I THINK I HAD IT IN THE--
WHOA! WHERE DID YOU GET
THAT COOL TV?
I ORDERED IT
WHEN THE NEW JOB CAME THROUGH.
SWEET, HUH?
YEAH, BUT, LISTEN,
I'M MISSING
A BUNCH OF MY STUFF.
IT'LL ALL TURN UP.
WE HAVEN'T EVEN UNPACKED
SOME OF THE BOXES YET.
THEN YOU CAN SET UP YOUR ROOM
JUST THE WAY YOU WANT IT.
YOU MEAN LIKE
HOW IT WAS
AT OUR OLD HOUSE?
JEFFREY...
THIS NEW JOB IS A--
IT'S A BIG STEP UP FOR ME.
AND I KNOW WE HAVEN'T
ALWAYS SEEN EYE TO EYE,
BUT I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT
IF YOU COULD AT LEAST PRETEND
TO LIKE IT HERE.
JUST FOR A LITTLE BIT?
[MOTHER]: WHO KNOWS,
MAYBE IF YOU PRETEND
FOR A LITTLE WHILE,
YOU'LL ACTUALLY START
TO LIKE IT HERE FOR REAL.
IT'S CALLED "ACTING AS IF."
OKAY, DAD. YEAH, I GUESS.
THAT'S THE SPIRIT.
[RUMBLING]
[RUMBLING]
MOM! DAD!
HONEY, WHAT HAPPENED?
THERE'S SOMETHING
UNDER MY BED!
JEFFREY,
IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT!
BUT I'M SERIOUS,
I HEARD IT BREATHING!
COME ON! HELP!
THERE'S NOTHING
HERE, JEFFREY.
WELL, CHECK UNDER THE BED!
[DAD]: JEFFREY!
WHAT IS IT!
WHAT DO YOU SEE?
JEFFREY!
[STRUGGLING]
GOTCHA!
IT'S NOT FUNNY, DAD!
I'M NOT JOKING!
RELAX, JEFFREY.
YOU USED TO HAVE
A SENSE OF HUMOR.
NOW GO TO BED.
YOUR MOTHER AND I NEED
TO GET SOME SLEEP.
[DOOR SLAMS SHUT]
[FOOTSTEPS SHUFFLING]
[IN EVIL VOICE]: TOO BRIGHT.
OH, LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE SLEPT
THROUGH THE NIGHT AFTER ALL.
WE'RE HAVING
PANCAKES?
WHERE'S THE BLUEBERRY SYRUP?
IN THE CUPBOARD.
I JUST UNPACKED IT.
WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO A SAUNA
IN THE MASTER BATHROOM?
I WOULD SAY "AHH."
IT'S NOT THERE.
RIGHT WHERE I SAID IT WOULD BE.
OH! I GUESS I DIDN'T SEE IT.
DID YOUR MOTHER TELL YOU?
SHE FOUND A BOUTIQUE THAT WANTS
TO CARRY HER CLOTHING LINE.
THAT'S GREAT, MOM.
AND YOUR FATHER'S GETTING
A COMPANY CAR.
A RANGE ROVER.
TOP OF THE LINE.
ALL LEATHER INTERIOR--
JUST LIKE
I'VE ALWAYS WANTED.
HEY, DO YOU KNOW
WHO LIVED HERE BEFORE US?
NOT SURE.
WHY?
'CAUSE ONE OF THE KIDS
SAID THAT AN OLD MAN
HAD LIVED HERE AND DIED.
THAT THERE
WAS SOMETHING
WRONG WITH THIS HOUSE.
WELL, THAT SOUNDS LIKE
SOMEONE TRYING TO PULL
THE NEW KID'S LEG.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT
YOU, OF ALL PEOPLE,
FELL FOR THAT.
[MOTHER]: SEAN,
LET HIM BE.
JEFFREY, I'M GOING
TO MAKE A CAKE.
DO YOU WANT
CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER
OR STRAWBERRY
DUMP CAKE?
CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER.
OF COURSE.
HOW'S THE HOUSE WORKING
OUT FOR YOU?
I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE
TRYING TO DO
WITH THIS WHOLE
HAUNTED HOUSE THING,
BUT YOU'RE WASTING YOUR BREATH.
WHO SAID ANYTHING
ABOUT A HAUNTED HOUSE?
I WAS JUST WONDERING
IF YOU'D FOUND
THE SUGAR CAVE YET.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
I USED TO WATCH
THE OLD RICH GUY
WHO LIVED THERE
HAUL BAG AFTER BAG
OF SUGAR INSIDE.
HE SAID HE WAS
"FEEDING THE WALLS."
[LAUGHING]
HOW MESSED UP
IS THAT?
FEEDING THE WALLS!
HE SAID TERRIBLE THINGS
WOULD HAPPEN
IF HE DIDN'T SUPPLY
THE SUGAR CAVE.
TWO WEEKS LATER,
THEY FOUND HIM COMPLETELY NAKED,
FACE DOWN IN A PILE OF SUGAR.
OKAY, HE WASN'T NAKED,
BUT HE WAS DEAD.
STONE COLD DEAD.
[CLATTERING]
[RUMBLING]
[CREAKING, CLATTERING]
[DOOR CREAKS]
JEFFREY, WHAT IN THE WORLD
ARE YOU DOING?
I THOUGHT I HEARD A NOISE
IN THE WALL.
IT STOPPED
WHEN YOU CAME UP.
PROBABLY JUST
THE HOUSE SETTLING.
[DOOR OPENS]
EVERYTHING OKAY?
[DAD]: YEAH, WE'RE GOOD.
IT HAPPENS
WITH THESE OLD PLACES.
SOMETIMES, A SQUIRREL
OR A RACCOON
WILL FIND THEIR WAY
INTO THE WALLS.
THEY USUALLY FIND A WAY OUT.
[MOTHER]:
JEFFREY!
JEFFREY, I CAN'T
BELIEVE YOU DID THIS.
DID WHAT?
I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.
YOU ATE ALL THE CAKE!
I JUST FOUND THIS
IN YOUR CLOSET.
I DIDN'T TOUCH IT! I SWEAR!
YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME, DO YOU?
[DAD]: JEFFREY, CALM DOWN.
JEFFREY...
AND YOU DIDN'T
BELIEVE ME
WHEN I SAID
I DIDN'T LIKE IT HERE.
YOU TOLD ME TO PRETEND
TO LIKE IT,
BUT I CAN'T PRETEND.
I HATE IT HERE!
[RUMBLING]
[CREAKING]
THAT'S MY FOUR BY FOUR...
LET GO! LET GO OF ME!
[EVIL VOICE]: IF YOU
TELL ANYONE ABOUT ME,
I'LL TAKE YOUR PARENTS.
I'LL TAKE THEM!
NO, I WON'T!
I SWEAR! I WON'T SAY ANYTHING!
I SWEAR! JUST LET ME GO!
[DAD]: JEFFREY!
JEFFREY!
SWEETHEART,
WHAT'S WRONG?
NOTHING'S WRONG, MOM. NOTHING.
HONEY, YOUR FATHER AND I KNOW
THAT THIS MOVE
HASN'T BEEN EASY FOR YOU.
BUT YOU HAVE
TO REMEMBER
THAT WE HAVE
DREAMS, TOO,
AND THIS HOUSE
IS A BIG PART OF THEM.
THIS IS WHAT
WE'VE ALWAYS WANTED
AND I THOUGHT
THAT YOU'D BE HAPPY FOR US.
I AM, MOM.
IT'S NOT THAT.
IT'S JUST--
YES, JEFFREY?
UM...
YOU AND DAD WERE RIGHT,
THIS HOUSE IS GREAT.
I'M JUST SORRY
ABOUT THE WAY I WAS ACTING.
WE ARE SO GLAD
TO HEAR YOU SAY THAT.
SO GLAD.
I KNEW YOU WERE
GOING TO LOVE IT HERE.
[DAD]: HE IS GOING
TO LOVE IT HERE.
IT WAS JUST
A MATTER OF TIME.
HEY, JEFFREY.
GOOD MORNING, HONEY.
YOU KNOW, SON...
I FEEL LIKE WE MADE A REAL
BREAKTHROUGH LAST NIGHT.
THANKS, DAD.
[MOTHER]: I MADE
YOUR FAVORITE WAFFLES.
[JEFFREY]:
OH, THAT LOOKS GREAT!
I'LL GET THE SYRUP.
MORE SYRUP.
WHAT'S THAT, JEFFREY?
I WAS JUST SAYING THAT, UM...
WE DON'T HAVE ANY SYRUP LEFT.
I COULD SWEAR THAT
WE HAD ANOTHER ONE.
OH, NO! LET ME JUST GO
AND RUN DOWN TO THE MARKET,
AND JUST GIVE ME A CHANCE
TO GET TO KNOW THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
GOT IT!
HEY, WHATCHA
GOT THERE?
SUPPOSE THAT OLD MAN
WHO USED TO LIVE IN MY HOUSE
WAS TELLING THE TRUTH.
SUPPOSE THERE REALLY IS
SOMETHING IN THE WALLS.
SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE FED.
SYRUP!
FOR THE THING IN THE WALLS!
AWESOME! I WANNA GO SEE IT!
NO, YOU CAN'T!
IT THREATENED
TO TAKE MY PARENTS
IF I SAID ANYTHING.
HEY, IT CAN TAKE
MY PARENTS ANYTIME.
CHUCK, THIS ISN'T A JOKE.
BESIDES, EVEN IF
I COULD TELL THEM,
THERE'S NO WAY
THEY'D BELIEVE ME.
SEEMS TO ME
YOU'VE ONLY GOT ONE OPTION...
TIME TO CHANGE
THE FLAVOR OF THAT SYRUP.
SAY BYE-BYE
TO THE THING IN THE WALLS.
[DOOR OPENS]
SAW YOU WITH
THE NEIGHBOR.
LOOKS LIKE
YOU MADE A NEW FRIEND.
YEAH. CHUCK'S OKAY.
[DAD]: I TOLD YOU YOU'D FIT IN.
WE BUILD UP
THESE ANXIETIES IN OUR MIND,
AND THEN WE REALIZE
THERE WAS NOTHING TO THEM.
NO,DAD!
[GLASS SHATTERS]
JEFFREY, LOOK AT THE MESS!
WHAT'S GOTTEN INTO YOU?
I'M SORRY.
I'LL CLEAN IT UP.
I'LL GO GET
THE DUSTPAN.
[EVIL VOICE]: MORE SYRUP.
MORE SYRUP!
[GROWLS]
IT DIDN'T WORK.
JEEZ!
NEVER SNEAK UP ON A GUY
WHEN HE'S PAINTING A WAR-BOAR.
I NEED A NEW PLAN.
THAT'S WHY
I HAVE THESE.
THE ULTIMATE RESOURCE
FOR ALL THINGS MONSTER.
YOU TAKE N-Z.
I'LL TAKE A-M.
[JEFFREY]:
THIS ONE HAS POTENTIAL...
NO, WAIT, IT SAYS
IT HAS FALCON CLAWS--
THE THING IN THE WALLS
HAS BONY FINGERS.
HEY, THINK
I MIGHT'VE FOUND SOMETHING.
EVER HEARD
OF A KLEMIT?
A KLEMIT?
IT'S A WALL DWELLER
WITH A SWEET TOOTH
AND A NASTY TEMPER.
THAT'S GOTTA BE IT.
WAIT.
WHAT?
THESE BUG BOMBS ARE LEFT OVER
FROM WHEN WE HAD SILVERFISH
LAST SUMMER.
MY DAD SAID
THEY'RE TOTALLY LETHAL.
SO, DO YOU KNOW
WHERE THE SUGAR CAVE IS?
THE OLD MAN SAID THERE'S
A SECRET DOOR IN THE NURSERY.
I BET I KNOW WHERE IT IS.
YEAH, I HEAR IT
MOVING AROUND IN HERE A LOT.
BINGO.
SWEET.
ALL RIGHT, GIVE ME THE SYRUP.
YOU SURE ABOUT THIS?
YEAH.
I'LL WAIT HERE.
LOOK OUT
FOR YOUR PARENTS.
THIS IS WHERE
ALL MY STUFF WENT.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY WALLS?
THE LAST TIME
I TRIED TO GET YOU SYRUP,
THE BOTTLE BROKE.
SO, I FIGURED
I SHOULD PROBABLY
BRING IT TO YOU NOW.
SYRUP.
IT MUST GET LONELY IN HERE.
MAYBE WE COULD BE FRIENDS.
MORE SYRUP.
HERE YOU GO.
[SCREAMS]
I'M COMING
TO TAKE YOUR PARENTS!
[ROARING]
IT'S GOING TO GET US!
[SCREAMING]
IT'S GOING TO KILL YOU!
GET OUT!
COME ON!
[CREATURE GAGGING]
EASY.
I THINK MY MOM'S
CALLING ME.
[MOTHER]: IS HE OKAY?
[DAD]: I HOPE SO.
TURN OFF THE LIGHTS!
YOU KNOW
HOW HE HATES THE LIGHTS!
[GAGGING]
THAT'S THE THING!
THE THING
THAT'S BEEN LIVING IN OUR WALLS!
QUIET, YOU'RE GOING
TO UPSET HIM.
HAVEN'T YOU CAUSED
ENOUGH TROUBLE AS IT IS?
HERE YOU GO.
HERE YOU GO.
GET IT OUT OF HERE!
GET IT OUT OF HERE!
JEFFREY, CALM DOWN.
THIS IS A GOOD THING.
DO YOU REALIZE
HOW LONG IT TOOK US
TO FIND A HOUSE WITH A KLEMIT?
WHAT?
YOU GUYS KNEW ALL ALONG?
OF COURSE WE KNEW.
KLEMITS BRING GOOD FORTUNE.
THANK GOODNESS,
YOU DIDN'T KILL HIM.
THAT THING THREATENED
TO TAKE YOU GUYS!
AND IT KILLED THE OLD MAN
THAT LIVED HERE!
JEFFREY, THAT OLD MAN
WAS 114 YEARS OLD.
HE HAD A 29-YEAR-OLD GIRLFRIEND.
YOU DO THE MATH.
THAT THING
HAS BEEN TORTURING ME!
"MORE SYRUP! MORE SYRUP!"
AND THEN THE CAKE,
AND THE SCRATCHING IN THE WALLS.
YOU GUYS LET ME BELIEVE
I WAS LOSING MY MIND!
JUST THINK HOW DIFFICULT
THIS HAS BEEN FOR US, HONEY.
WE HAD NO CHOICE.
THE MORE PEOPLE
WHO KNOW ABOUT YOUR KLEMIT,
THE LESS GOOD LUCK YOU HAVE.
THAT'S HOW IT WORKS.
SO YOU SEE?
WE COULDN'T TELL YOU.
[MOTHER]:
AND IF WE HAVE GOOD LUCK,
WELL, THEN SO DO YOU.
HOW? SO WHAT DO I GET?
DON'T YOU LIKE
LIVING IN A BIG HOUSE?
HAVING A NICE CAR?
THAT STUFF IS FOR YOU GUYS.
I MEAN, WHAT DO I GET?
I WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE
WOULD BE INTERESTED
IN HEARING ABOUT THE THING
THAT LIVES IN OUR WALLS.
WELL, WHAT EXACTLY
IS IT THAT YOU WANT, DEAR?
HMM...
WHAT DO I WANT?
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I WANT...
[GIGGLING]
