- Hello?

Is someone there? [gasps]

[screaming] It's the Gumbus!

[chilling music plays]
- Ah! [yelps]

[whimpering]

- Uh, what'cha
watching, Miguel?

- Oh, my gosh, oh, my gosh!

I was just watching my favorite
can-stacking channel.

- Can stacking...okay.

- It's a thing.

There's this one
supermarket stock boy.

He builds forts, towers,

national monuments!

- Yeah, I see his channel
has a like.

- I would've liked it
twice if I could.

Anyway, he's at
the store after hours, and

you gotta see it!

- And now, I shall complete

the most difficult stack
of all,

only completed
by one other stock boy:

the Lady Liberty stack!

What's a Gumbus?

- It's a ghost that haunts
the Stock-&-Shop!

- Oh, pfft.

There's gotta be
a simple answer.

Earthquake, magnets,
giant prankster mice.

There's no such thing
as ghosts.

What? [grunts]

How can you say there's
no such thing as ghosts

when there's such
a thing as us?

The Gumbus is real.

- Only one way to settle
this heated debate:

we head up
to the Stock-&-Shop

and tamper with the mysterious
forces of the underworld.

Uh... [chuckles nervously]
I'm fine just getting

the pants scared off of me

- Oh, no.
April's right.

I'm gonna prove to you

there's no such thing
as a Gumbus.

I don't wanna go! Please!

Mikey, why do you have
that thing?

It's lined with tinfoil

This place is like
Christmas Morning for food.

- This place is creepy.
- Creepy or awesome?

Answer: both.

[soft clicking]
- [gasps] I heard something.

- [sighs]
- Huh?

[dramatic music]

[train whistle blows]

- A model train.
Simple answer.

[laughs haughtily]

What kind of sicko puts a
model train in a grocery store?

We came here to see a ghost,

and a ghost we shall see.

There's no such thing

You?

What's the big idea?

I thought you were the Gumbus.

Wait, are you turtles?

All that matters is we're huge
fans of your haunted videos.

Did you subscribe and donate?

- Perfect timing.
I was about to vlog about that.

The Gumbus.

It all goes back
to ancient times:

1987!

[Mikey shouts]

I'll spare you
the gory details.

The greatest stock boy
this store has ever seen,

Jeremiah Gumbus...

got crunched in the chains
of the milk processing plant!

- [screams]
- What happened

to sparing the gory details?

- Chain and soul combined,
and now,

as the chain-laden Gumbus,

he haunts the aisles
of the store.

Legend has it the only way to
free the Gumbus

from his eternal torment
is...huh?

- Yeah!
- What?

- Whoa!

- Uh...

- Got a simple answer
for that, Leon?

- Ugh!

Obviously he's behind the cans.

Uh, yeah.

[stammers] It can't be.
No, no, no, no, no.

This can't be happening.
