People in the Walls (2024)

[bunniefuu]

It's just me.

Are you all right?

No.

What's wrong?

Do you see the video I sent you?

The duck one?

No. You know what I'm talking

about.

The one with the people.

Becka, I don't know what you

sent me,

but I don't have any other

videos

from you.

It's Sammy.

I'm back.

Today we're going to do

something

that my friend told me about,

and it completely works. All

right.

So right now

I have my doll set up right

here.

So that way

I'll give my guest

something to play with and my

closet.

And then we're going

to turn out the lights.

I set you up.

Okay.

Kind of scared

people who are in the walls.

Please come out.

People who are in the walls.

Please come out.

Well, sometimes it doesn't work.

See you later.

That was creepy.

So this scared you?

I did it.

It worked.

Bullshit.

I know what this is.

You're trying to set me up

so you can scare the crap out of

me.

Who else is here?

I'm not joking.

So you're saying this works?

You want to see?

If there's anything in these

walls?

Please let yourself be known.

Please let yourself be known.

If. If there's anything in these

walls,

please see yourself be known.

What happened?

You didn't see it?

No.

Baby, Let's go.

Well, I appreciate you letting

me know.

Thank you.

Great.

Movers had a flat,

so they run a little behind.

Okay.

This is good.

It's got that

pungent aroma. Old.

And you cannot complain

about my house pick

You're the one that wanted to

buy

that weird m*rder house.

I'm not complaining. I'm just

giving merrily sarcastic grunts.

Well,

you can grunt this into the

kitchen for me.

Hey, kiddo.

It's not going to be forever.

I know.

Tell you what

why don't you pick your room.

You're joking.

No, I'm serious.

It's not like

we're going to be here that

long, and

until we can stage and get it

sold.

You can pick any room you want,

even, like the living room.

Okay, That's terrible choice.

But, yeah, Even like the living

room.

Deal.

Don't pick something

that's going to upset your Dad

too much.

There are no rules earlier.

You can change things

all of a sudden. Okay.

All right.

Just make a choice before the

movers.

Get here.

No, there's a lot of things

that I will give up, but

absolutely not.

I will not give up my kitchen.

But, Mom said that

I can have any room in the house

I wanted.

Did she?

What would

make Mom think that this is a

good idea?

Sounded like a good idea at the

time.

Any excuse to irritate Dad.

So there was intent.

Success. Kudos.

But no on the kitchen.

But Mom told me that I can sleep

anywhere.

And Mom could tell you that

there's

a family of elves that live in

the attic.

You want another slice of pizza?

Rachel.

Grab that drill for me.

Have a seat for me.

Okay...

I know it's not always

easy being the new girl.

I just want you to know that

I understand what you're going

through.

You were the new girl.

Okay, smarty pants.

No. And yes,

the truth is, when I was your

age,

I got

a bullied a lot

kids can be cruel.

Wasn't because I was small and

weak

because I had big old muscles

and they were afraid of me

And this helps, How?

I promise.

This is the last time.

Okay?

Soon as this house sells,

we will get a permanent house

and there'll be no more

flipping.

You said that last time.

I know.

And I meant it.

Times are tough right now.

Not just for your mom and I,

but for everyone.

I just want you to know

that I'm here for you.

If you ever want to talk, I'm

here

to listen.

If you don't talk about

anything,

anything at all.

Daddy's here.

Okay.

Okay.

Get off to school.

Learn something today

Gonna I ask you later what you

learned.

You better have an answer.

Hey, who are you and what are

you doing

here?

I'm just walking the school.

This path doesn't go anywhere.

Why are you here?

I just moved here.

I don't know where this one

went.

I just took this path.

What's your name?

Rachel.

Yours?

Nancy.

Did you put all these up?

Yeah, I did.

Why?

Right back here before it gets

dark

again. Why?

Just do it.

Hey, it's me, um, this is Chris.

Hey, are you a new girl?

Ever seen her before?

No.

Then she's new.

So what is all of this?

Why are we out here?

Hold on.

There's a special time Wendigo

time.

What is all this?

It's a cryptic club.

Chris.

Do you even know what cryptive

is?

You?

No.

Have you ever heard of the

Wendigo?

No.

The Lochness Monster?

No.

She says lot.

There's this creature.

It's the Wendigo.

It's a curse of the Native

American tribes put on this

land.

It mimics people and takes them

away.

So it just looks like a person?

No, it's like a forest long

troll thing.

Made out of wood with horns.

Why did you hang up

all these missing posters?

We're trying to lure over and

catch it.

Catch it? How?

With traps.

I've been studying up on trap

buildings

for almost a whole year now.

I practice on my cat mostly.

You didn't hurt your cat, did

you?

No. I mean, she's missing a

tail,

but Grandma said she was getting

old

anyway, so I was likely to fall

up

sooner or later.

Have you ever seen anything?

No. I've caught tracks, though.

I've been told

they are just my neighbor's

dogs.

But I'm pretty sure it was the

Wendigo.

Were you waiting on others to

join this?

It's me, her and my boy Blue.

He's my little brother.

I'm just supposed to bring him

around.

So far, it's just me and you.

If you want to join.

Have you ever heard something

about

the people who

Live in the walls?

No.

That's why I'm here.

Let's talk somewhere safe

(Singing along)

Oh, sick.

I think there's a problem

inside.

Wow. You look pretty today.

You haven't heard a word

I just said did you?

You made food?

Two suppers? No.

What's wrong?

Follow me.

There's this hole.

Go ahead.

Stick your finger in it.

It's got this nasty goop.

Yeah, but no.

Take your word for it

There's definately something in

there.

Well, what do you think

how much it's going to cost to

fix

This? I have no idea.

Reminds me of this one house.

Oh, good Lord.

You could hear buzzing

throughout the entire walls.

Had no idea what was. Took it

out.

Bees everywhere honeycombs.

There's a swarm of them.

That took a couple days to clean

up.

And there was this one house had

worms.

Okay, that's gross.

That was discusting.

This...

I don't know.

Well... Who Should we call?

Google?

Sometimes I question why I

married you.

You're absolutely worthless.

Often.

All right, well, fix it.

Somehow.

You'll figure it out.

I've got faith in you.

Yes, ma'am.

We can be safe talking about it

with you.

Nobody believes me.

Everybody just thinks that we

were scaring

ourselves and the fun got out of

hand.

She broke her neck.

Wait, wait, wait.

Someone die?

Nobody died.

Did someone die?

No.

No one died, dummy.

I'm not a dummy.

I'm spending the night tonight.

What? Why?

Isn't it too late?

We're doing it?

Doing what?

We're bringing out the monsters.

It's okay.

I do traps.

Then what's he do?

Nothing.

I'm the muscle.

You're staying at home?

I'll hide in the bushes.

The bushes at home.

I'll hide at home.

Did you hear what I said?

My friend broke her neck. What

if,

They were just playing games

What if the Wendigo is really

just them?

What if it is?

I'm afraid of what it might do?

It's okay.

Last time you weren't prepared.

This time, you have me.

Let me tell you some

stuff about the Wendigo.

Usually I can find it pretty

quickly

there.

If you see it, it's like this.

Like a tree and horns are made

of wood.

And if you hear

it sounds like people, you know,

how does it shapeshift?

We don't have to do this.

Yeah, we do.

I don't need you to fully

believe me,

Nancy.

It's not really about you.

What is it?

Nothing.

So do you wanna start?

Yeah. I guess,

We just turn everything off and

Ask them to come out.

Ask who to come out?

The People

in the Walls.

Okay.

If there's anyone there,

listen to me.

Will the people who live in the

walls

come out.

I'm in position.

What do you mean, in position?

You should be at home.

I'm just a tiny bush.

No, go home now.

What's going on?

Well, I think Chris is dressed

as a bush somewhere outside.

Damn it.

Seriously, Rachel,

New girl.

That's Nancy.

I'm Nancy,

and I'm hungry.

You think I can make it to my

refrigerator

without getting

caught in any more of this?

So how many more of these

traps do I need to look out for?

Only, like, seven.

You do know

that it's a school night, right?

And you don't care.

Okay.

Be safe.

Don't get hurt.

And these boards with screws in

them?

No, young lady, that's

dangerous.

Those go outside.

If you need me, I will be in my

room.

We have an open door policy.

No locked doors.

I'm a nice dad, Call away.

Got it?

Got it.

Love you.

That's your dad?

Damn it.

Sorry.

Your dad pretty cool.

I guess

he only started to be this way

since the thing happened.

He used to be more strict, but,

you know.

Yeah,

I love my grandma.

I mean,

she's cool, and all its just.

My parents they decided to

go live in a van and just

go around. So

I get a letter from them and I

feel like

it's the 1900s or something.

But yeah,

my grandma,

she's busy all the time.

When things like being sick

in bed and stuff.

So I'm able to do what I want

lot.

So why do you hunt for the

Wendigo?

You gotta have something to

believe in.

I just think

if I can prove

something's real,

that explains why my parents

don't seem to care about me.

Do you have any brothers and

sisters?

No, your Dad.

Your mom, Do you have a dog?

One of them look like a dog to

you?

Do you have a dog?

No!

Where did they come from?

From what do you think?

ROAR!

Scott,

whoever's there, you can open

the door.

It's not locked.

How did just asking something

to come out of the darkness

work?

I don't know?

What happened?

We didn't do anything to

conjure anyone. It's not demons.

Why would I ask you something?

To come to the room? Work.

Vampires.

Trick question, They have to be

invited in.

But then that makes them

like the black eyed kids.

What are the black eyed kids?

Do you know anything?

You just have to invite them in

first.

But these are already in the

house.

Trick question.

I got this.

Are we sure they came from the

walls?

They're Inside the walls.

They don't live in the house,

Which means they should be

invited in.

Then. How do they come out of

the walls?

Got any holes in these walls?

How does the Wendigo mimic

someone and take them away?

The voice, the look,

everything just seems a bit off

and isn't right.

Scott

Rache...

honey?

Rache..

You should come in.

We have something fun to show

you.

All right? Rache...

What do you mean by we?

I have a new friend

Oh, I don't know we have

Company.

I'm not dressed.

No, Mom, Please. Sit down

What's going on?

You know, my new friend is

really shy.

You need a say.

Anyone who lives in the walls

come on out.

This will make her not be so

shy.

Well, all right.

Anyone who lives in the walls

come on out

Hello?

Close your eyes.

Okay, Rache, It's too late for

this baby,

Mom!

Close your eyes.

Okay.

My eyes are closed now what.

Here we come. Mom,

Just keep your eyes shut.

Almost there.

Don't peek.

It's going to be such a

surprise.

I can't wait to see the look on

your face.

Can you hear me?

Close to you right now,

We're almost to you.

Mom don't open your eyes!

Keep your eyes shut!

Rachel, come out right now.

Mom.

How do we

fight against the wind to go?

I don't remember her.

Can we go to your house?

Naw.

Grandma.

Follow me.

Why can't I come in?

I'm the muscle.

Stand guard muscle.

Why the pictures?

Well,

I thought if

Maybe, I drew its natural

habitat,

it would either bring back my

parents or

take me away.

What happened to your parents?

Grandma says there was something

that they were taking.

Like pills.

Or something.

I don't know.

It was

too much,

but they changed so fast.

All of a sudden they didn't care

about us

anymore.

Chris doesn't remember much

because he was too young, but

I do.

What do you think we saw?

I don't know.

It could be anything.

Do you think it's everything?

What do you mean?

I mean, how close is it to

things

people have seen, right?

What if it's the things people

are seeing?

But it's just describing part of

it?

It's nothing like the Mothman

and definitely not like the

Jersey Devils.

So.

Okay, I don't know that.

But what if been around

and it's just something else?

Well,

let's get looking.

Okay.

So we should start in the upper

world.

Where's the bathroom

Shadow

Shadow

Yeah, monster

Rachel

Mom?

Shadow

Monster

Rachel

Mom?

Rachel

Monster

Hello.

Close your eyes.

Close your eyes.

Mom is that you?

Yes.

I'm only playing a game.

Are you scared?

Yes.

No, don't be.

Come here,

Mom. You would never leave me,

would you?

Of course not,

Rachel.

Now, now,

there's my baby girl.

Why did you pull away?

What are you.

What do you want?

I'm here for you, baby girl.

You asked me to come.

Why are you yelling?

Not today.

Not today. Not to do today.

Not today.

Not today.

What just happened?

It was here pretending to be my

mom.

What?

Its the Shimmy Shadow.

Can't just make up names.

Yeah, I just went into the

closet.

I've seen it before.

In my dreams.

It's name was the shimmy shadow.

Okay, stop.

You can't just make up names

for a new monster.

How else is it supposed to get

its name?

Why'd it runaway?

Because I'm a beast.

This.

Really?

I'm sorry.

Sorry about what?

Why we became friends.

What do you mean?

We're going to be best friends

now.

We're going to be best friends

now.

I don't think I'm understanding.

Why are you sorry?

Studies have proven that people

who

undergo

traumatic experiences together

tend to

forge a strong bond for another.

And our friendship only started

because some

monster was hunting you and your

family to

so sorry.

Yeah. Me too.

Do you have traps here.

That's the bed sheet closet.

What do we do?

Jump

Chris!

Chris!

Put away the light, Chris.

Put away the light, Chris.

Put away the light.

Chris.

Why?

The Shimmy Shadow!

Put away the light.

Chris

Put away the light.

Chris

I don't want to.

Chris!

Nancy, what do we do?

I...

Grandma,

Grandma,

come at me.

I'm the muscle!

Over here.

No, don't listen to it.

I'm your real sister.

Well, I'm not my moving!

Duck,

Nancy,

don't.

It's a trap.

Don't.

Don't

Nancy.

No.

Nancy!

No, no.

There's no monsters.

That's what people always told

me.

No monsters.

Those were monsters!

And they took the last person

that ever cared about me,

they took my little brother

and if you wouldn't have told us

anything.

He would still be here right

now.

But, no, you had to do this.

What do I do now without him?

We'll find a way?

No, I will find a way.

I will fix your mess!

This is not my mess!

He could be dead.

And it's all your fault.

It's not fair, Nancy.

I don't even know you.

You can be one yourself.

I wish they took you instead.

Its name was the shimmy

shadow...

Do you think they'll find mom?

We have to hope

So yes,

I think they'll find your Mom.

You two didn't have a fight.

Of course we didn't have a

fight.

Did she say that she was

leaving?

Rachel?

Why would she say that she's

leaving?

Cause she didn't.

Did you say that you were

leaving?

Look, Dad, I'm just trying to

help.

Yeah, well,

I'm just trying to keep it

together.

I'm trying to figure out all of

this.

Look, I have been nothing but

good.

Been good to your mother.

I've been good to you.

I've been patient with you.

I've given you your space after

you got your best friend's neck

broken.

And then your mother and I,

we sink every dime that we have

in the entire world into this

money pit,

we find out the walls are mold

infested.

And then up

in the middle of the night,

poof,

your mother just disappears

and she's gone.

You know something?

And if you really want to help,

you will tell me where is

Your mom,

You...

Could be the people

who what people

The ones in the walls

people in the walls.

What am I supposed to do with

that?

That's how Becka broke her neck.

It was them, it came out

and they chased us.

Stop.

No, Dad, Listen to me.

They attacked Nancy, and I.

Rachel, I need you to stop.

We set traps, remember?

It was for them.

God damn it.

Stop it now.

Dad, They're after someone

they could have grabbed Mom!

Young lady,

I am warning you right now.

This is reality.

There are no people in the walls

that doesn't f*cking exist.

So you be honest with me right

now.

If you know where your mother

is,

you will tell me.

Tell me.

You turn off the lights

and tell them to come out.

And they do, Dad.

They have to be asked.

We are done talking at this

table.

They took Chris.

They took him into the walls

and they might have taken

Mom to.

Do you want this to be true,

You want there to be people in

the walls?

You want there to be another

world.

Okay, then let's this world.

So how does this work,

They need to be invited.

Fine.

Let's invite them.

Please.

Is there anyone out there?

I ask you, is anyone out there?

If so, I invite you.

My daughter, she wants her

mother back.

And me?

I want my wife.

Dad!

What do I need to put a whole

g*dd*mn wall

improved you?

There's nothing there.

Please,

baby, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean to scare you.

Please forgive me.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to scare you.

Please forgive me.

I'm so sorry,

Scott.

Anyone who lives in the walls

Where is it?

Where is it?

Where's it?

If there's anyone in the walls

know this,

I'm coming for my brother.

And if you want out,

there's anyone in the walls.

Come on out.

You handle that

Chris!

Where are you?

Nancy!

Nancy...

You don't think I'm

as big of a threat as my dad

was.

Is that why you're not attacking

me?

How about now,

Chris!

Chris, I'm here.

I'm here, Chris.

No, no

Hey,

I'm the muscle

Chris!

We forgot about, Grandma.

She's at home in bed.

I Miss you, Grandma

We didn't do anything.

The shimmy shadow is still out

there.
