(bicycles clattering)

- That's the place.

- Spooky!

- [Gavin] It doesn't

look that scary.

- So you go first then.

- I'm not afraid!

- [Lyla] Good. So go inside.

- I'm scared.

Definitely scared.

Our mom says it's

okay to be scared.

(Lyla scoffs)

- Did you bring the bottles?

(bottles clinking)

- Yup!

Our dad had a bad day.

(Lyla sighs)

- You ready?

Whatever.

(gate rattling)

- Maybe we shouldn't go inside.

- Stop being such a baby.

- I think maybe we should go.

- Then go.

(quirky music)

- Dude, I'm not going in there.

It's haunted.

- Isn't that why we're going in?

- Pssh! I'm outta here, man.

Later.

(quirky music)

(tarp rustles)

- Lyla?

Lyla?

Lyla. Where are you?

Lyla?

Lyla?

(door slams)

Oh my God!

(suspenseful music)

- Boo!

(Wesley screams)

(Lyla giggling)

- You're such a baby, Wesley.

- At least I came

in. Gavin ran home.

- Huh. I guess you do

get points for that.

Come here. I think

I found the spot.

(mysterious music)

(backpack unzips)

(mysterious music)

(bottles clinking)

- So, what are we

supposed to do with it?

- I don't know.

Jimmy said you just

kind of chuck it.

- You're going first.

(Lyla sighs)

(bottle shatters)

(eerie music)

Whoa!

No freaking way!

- My turn!

(bottle shatters)

(eerie music)

I can't believe

Gavin is missing this

- Fortune flavors the bold.

(bottle shatters)

(eerie music)

(door creaking)

- [Wesley] What else do you

think this house can do?

- I don't know, but

we have to find out.

- Totally.

(bottle shatters)

(eerie music)

Huh?

(bottle thuds and clatters)

Ow!

Did you see that?

- I'll never forget

it. That was brilliant.

- No, I saw something.

Over there.

- Probably just a shadow.

- We should go. Could

be the neighbors.

(cello playing)

- Maybe just a TV or something?

- Lyla, where are you going?

Lyla?

- Just one second.

(cello playing continues)

(cello playing continues)

Huh?

(suspenseful music)

(Lyla screams)

Help! Help, Wesley!

- Lyla!

(doorknob rattling)

Lyla, I can't get it open!

- Wesley!

- Lyla!

- Wesley.

Help! Help!

- Lyla, I can't get it open!

Lyla!

(doorknob rattling)

I can't get it open!

(eerie music)

- We could ask him

to open the door.

- And then you

could play with him.

- Lyla, I'm sorry!

(muffled screaming)

(dramatic music)

Lyla!

Lyla!

(muffled screaming)

Lyla!

(Lyla spits)

Lyla!

(Lyla coughing)

- Keep going.

- Lyla!

- I'm not going back in there!

(suspenseful music)

(Lyla and Wesley panting)

chirping continues)

(chirring and

chirping continues)

(peeing)

(belt rattling)

(pants zip)

(pee dripping)

- Hey!

How was the pee funnel?

- Ryan, it's a female

urination device.

And I'm never using one again.

- At least you tried it.

- Are you sure you

don't need to go?

- Yeah. All good.

- Okay.

(turns on radio)

(channels scanning)

- You're not gonna

find anything out here.

- There's always something.

- Start driving and

you'll get a station.

- I can't drive without music.

- What were we doing

for the last four hours?

- We were talking.

- So now we're done talking?

- Well keep talking then

if you wanna keep talking.

- Oh so now I have to

do all of the talking.

(music playing on radio)

- Ah!

Now we can drive.

(upbeat pop music)

(upbeat music continues)

(upbeat music continues)

I had a dream that

I was in the circus

Climbing high upon

the wire without a net

My highest yet

I would never

fall but if I did

I'd be laughing

like a little kid

Time to time I get too

high and miss a step

(Jules chuckles)

Did you see this photo

Max posted from Mexico?

- Oh, yeah.

- You didn't even look.

- I glanced. I saw it

earlier on my phone.

- Okay, so which is it, you

glanced or you saw it earlier?

- Both.

- You're always on your phone.

(Jules sighs)

Now I'll just act naturally

Try to hide the fear

so they don't see

But it's in this song

Someday maybe

baby life goes on

Life goes on

Life goes on and on

and on and on and on

You know how people

say that... (chuckles)

when you die, your life flashes

before your eyes, right?

- Yeah.

It's like a big previously

on before the final episode.

- Yeah, so, if that's true,

then at any point you

could stop and wave

at your future

dying self, right?

Leave a little message.

- And say what?

"Hey, you did good, Ryan.

I know you're dying right now.

That must suck.

That's really tough.

But, Ryan, you did good."

- Yeah, or like,

"I hope you got your sh*t

together." (chuckles)

- Jules, look out!

(tires skidding)

(Jules shouts)

- Jesus!

Get the hell out

of the road, kid!

- Come on. It's not

like it's his fault.

- Hey, you all right, kid?

- Wesley, let's go!

(Ryan sighs)

Well, kids are a sign

of a nice neighborhood,

you know, property

values and stuff.

- No, they're a bad omen,

like a black cat

crossing your path.

- You can't say that.

- Kids are like

oranges in a mob movie.

- That's not a thing.

- Ugh.

I feel like we just opened

an umbrella indoors,

or walked under a

tunnel of ladders.

- Kids aren't bad luck.

- Well, they're not exactly

rabbits feet either.

(eerie music)

- [Ryan] Okay, so that's

16. Evens are on this side.

(Jules and Ryan chattering)

That's 17.

- [Jules] 23! Here we are.

- [Ryan] All roads lead to home.

(music fades)

- Well, it's not exactly

what I'd expected.

- Come on. Get up.

And remember, it's what's

on the inside that counts.

- [Jules] Ryan, we don't

even have the keys yet.

- I don't think it's locked.

Besides, bank already took our

money. I'm moving in early.

- Fine. Whatever.

Guess I'm the adult today.

(clunking)

Ryan?

Ryan?

Everything okay in there?

Ryan?

(acoustic guitar playing)

Say nighty night and kiss me

Just hold me tight and

tell me you'll miss me

While I'm alone

and blue as can be

Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but

I linger on dear

Still craving your kiss

(camera shutter clicks)

- Jesus!

- Oh, that was beautiful!

- I hope you don't mind.

I recorded some of it

to post to Instagram.

- Uh, can we help you?

- I'm Alice.

The realtor.

- Oh! Alice from the website.

I am so sorry. I'm Ryan.

Nice to finally meet you.

This is my fianc, Jules.

- Oh, it is so fantastic

to meet you both.

It's so good to put your

faces to our emails.

Oh, and let me be the

first to say welcome home.

(ominous music)

So everything with the

bank went through. Yay!

So all that's left are just a

few signatures here and there.

- [Ryan] Uh-huh.

- I know, it probably

looks intimidating,

but if you think about it,

they're just words

on paper, right?

- What's this review release?

- Oh, that simply

gives me permission

to use your review for

marketing purposes.

- I haven't written a review.

- Well, not yet.

But I did take the liberty

of putting together

some of your positive

statements from your emails.

- Well, I guess I

did technically say

each of these words.

- Do we really need to sign

all of these right now?

I mean, we haven't even seen

the rest of the house yet.

- Oh, well you did just

sign away your walkthrough.

Yeah.

But we could do something quick.

- Great, great.

That'd be wonderful.

- Okay, great. Quick,

quick little tour.

But you know what?

First I really need

you to sign this one.

Everything else can wait,

but this one makes the

house officially yours.

- Okay.

(ominous music)

- Excellent! (gasps)

It's all yours!

Shall we tour?

So you have already

discovered the sitting room,

and over here are the bedrooms.

After you.

(ominous music)

(door creaks)

(Alice exhales)

So this is the master bedroom.

It's 115 square

feet. Closet space.

Beautiful view of the sunrise.

(plucks cello string)

- The estate didn't

want any of this?

- Looks like they

left in a hurry.

- Well, they didn't die.

I'm required to tell you

if the most recent

owners died in the house.

And I am happy to report

that they did not die here.

- Great.

- Great.

That's great.

- On with the tour.

This is what I like

to call the nursery,

or it would make a

great kids' room.

- Yeah, we're not really

doing the kids thing,

but I think this room would

make a fantastic office.

(quirky music)

(Jules and Ryan chattering)

(quirky music continues)

(chattering continues)

- Get out!

Let's get out!

It's a beautiful day.

Let's leave right now.

(quirky music)

A little to your left.

Oh, I meant right.

A little more.

No, wait, half the distance

back the other way.

And smile.

(camera shutter clicks)

I think we should do another.

You go ahead and look,

but I think we should do

another with more smiling.

- I'm sure it's fine.

- Who's that?

(curious music)

- It's me! (laughs)

I'm sorry to barge in like this,

but I just had to come

over and introduce myself.

I'm Peggy, your

neighbor.

- I think you two are going

to be very happy here.

I have to leave.

- What about the rest

of the paperwork?

- Oh, no, don't worry about it.

Again, congratulations!

You're a perfect fit!

- She is very nice.

I am really gonna miss

having her around.

- So, anyway.

I'm Jules. This is

my fianc, Ryan.

- Unmarried and cohabitating.

Very edgy, very hip.

- It was lovely meeting you,

but we've been in

the car a whole week,

and we've got a lot

of work ahead of us.

- Yeah, we're

already so tired, so.

- Of course.

Anything, don't hesitate to ask.

It's lovely meeting

you. (chuckling)

Bye. (laughing)

(lively music)

- This is a totally

normal neighborhood.

Huh

(lively music)

(plastic rustling)

(tablecloth swishes)

(Ryan coughing)

Huh

(lively music)

(lively music continues)

(bat squeaking)

(Jules shouting)

- It's a bat!

Ryan, there is a bat.

Bat in the house!

(lively music)

(toilet flushing)

(dishes clacking)

(lively music continues)

Huh

(books thudding)

(lively music continues)

Huh

(lemonade pouring)

- Well, the rooms are all swept,

and the kitchen looks amazing.

- Well, I needed it ready

for you to cook for me.

- Oh. Oh. (imitating

French accent)

(Ryan laughing)

Well, then tonight,

we will feast!

For our main entree, some

premium leftovers from 2003.

Some perfectly brown banana.

And for dessert,

some chilled peanut

butter from 1999.

But of course, we cannot cook

without the most

important spice.

Music!

Alexa, play "saxy" music.

(quirky music)

Close enough!

Oh, yes!

You know how to cook, yes?

- Ya. (imitating German accent)

Maybe we bring the peanut

butter into the bedroom.

(Ryan laughing)

- Oh, you are reading my mind.

(Jules laughing)

(doorbell rings)

What?

Are we expecting anyone?

- Nobody texted me.

(Ryan sighs)

- Should we ignore it?

(Jules sighs)

- It could be more neighbors.

We should say hello.

- Oh my god!

Max!

- Alive and in the flesh!

Draw!

(quirky music)

Bang!

- Bam!

(Max laughs)

(Jules groans)

(Jules laughing)

What are you doing here?

- Yeah, Max, what

are you doing here?

- [Max] You said

stop by anytime.

- We've been here 10 hours.

- Yeah.

- Here, let me

help you with that.

- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Thank you so much.

I really appreciate it.

(gear clanking)

(Ryan grunts)

Wow!

I dig the digs, dog!

I can't believe you have a house

- It's all mine.

I could burn it

down if I wanted.

(Ryan sighs)

- Along with everyone inside.

(gear clanking)

- No, I mean, this

is really nice.

You deserve this, Jules.

- Thanks.

- So, Max, how did you find us?

(Max laughs)

- That is a really

funny story, actually.

So, your realtor took a

picture of you guys, right,

and then tagged you in it.

But she didn't turn off

the geolocation data,

so I used that to

track you down.

But then I messaged

her directly,

and I said she

needed to turn it off

and that, if she didn't,

she'd be seeing me.

- Poor Alice.

So, how was Mexico?

- Ugh, boring.

Hot.

But I mean, the fruit was good.

They fired me

before I could learn

the Spanish words for "I quit".

So.

- Renuncio. Yo renuncio

I quit.

- Oh, oh yo renuncio.

Si! Bueno! Veridad!

- Espera. Nosotros nos

cuidamos uno al otro.

- Si!

Bueno!

Pantalones!

Spanish.

(all laughing hysterically)

(laughing continues)

- So I just look at him. I

stare him right in the eyes.

And I just start pissing again!

(all laughing hysterically)

- No, no.

How did you have any left?

- Oh, Jesus, Max.

You're the bravest idiot I know.

(Jules laughing)

- I can see why you

quit, or tried to.

- I mean, I've got something

lined up, up near Reno,

but it doesn't start

for another week or so,

so I was thinking maybe...

- [Jules] Of course

you can stay here.

- [Ryan] Totally.

Honestly, we could really

use the extra pair of hands.

- Oh my goodness. Thank

you so much, guys.

That helps me out a ton.

- Dude, mi casa es

su casa, hermano.

- We've got the perfect

room for you too.

(door opens)

- I think we have an

air mattress somewhere.

- Ah, no, no. Why bother?

This is perfect.

(Max grunts)

- [Jules] Are you sure?

- Oh yeah.

(bed frame clanging)

See?

- Okay. (chuckles)

I'm really happy you're here.

Okay, goodnight.

(Max sighs)

(bag rustling)

(eerie music)

(eerie music continues)

- I was thinking tomorrow we

could go get the paint stuff

and get all the supplies we

need to fix the front door.

- We should do stained

glass. Big Jesus layout.

(Ryan chuckles)

- You don't want to give the

neighbors the wrong idea.

- I don't wanna give

the neighbors anything.

- Then I will

scratch the cookies

I was going to bake tomorrow.

(Jules gasps)

- Your dad's cookies?

You have to make the cookies.

- Dad's cookies are meant

to be shared, Jules.

- Fine.

We can give the creepy

neighbors some cookies.

- Speaking of creepy,

Max is tracking us?

- It's not that weird.

That's just technology,

and that's just Max.

- I knew that he would show up

from time to time here or

there, and that's fine.

That's totally fine.

But, on the first

night in our new home?

- If he's here,

it's because he has

nowhere else to go.

- I know, I know, I know.

It's our first home.

Our first night.

- You're so romantic.

(Ryan scoffs)

Max never stays anywhere long.

He'll be here a few days,

and then he'll be off

on his next new adventure.

- Well his adventure

this week is hard work.

- You know,

(imitating german

accent) we could

still make the

first night special.

(Ryan chuckles)

- He's right down the hall

from us. He'll hear everything.

- You mean he'll hear you.

- I'm expressive.

- He's always in his headphones.

He won't hear you. Us.

(Ryan grumbles)

(smacks pillow)

You just stay right here.

(imitating German accent)

And I'll be right

back. (giggles)

(Ryan panting)

(brushing teeth)

(brushing hair)

(hair tearing)

(brushing teeth)

Doctor! (imitating

German accent)

I have a problem I was hoping

you could help me with.

(Ryan snoring)

I guess I will die

then. (inhales)

(Jules sighs)

(bed creaking)

(cello playing)

Ryan?

Ryan, do you hear that?

(Ryan grumbling)

- I need to get my

crepe pans reseasoned.

(cello playing continues)

(mysterious music)

(mysterious music continues)

(suspenseful music)

(Jules gasps)

- Hell!

- Jesus!

- Did you hear that music?

- Sorry, did I hear what?

(music playing in headphones)

(Jules sighs)

- Nevermind. I'm just...

I'm just tired.

- Okay.

Weirdo. (giggles)

(mysterious music)

(Max screams)

- Oh, son of a b*tch! Mm.

Hey Max, can you shut up and

come hold this for a sec?

I'm trying to

finish my frittata.

But yeah, I'll help

you in a minute.

- [Jules] You've been

working on your frittata

for over an hour.

- Mm. It isn't art.

(imitating French accent)

(bin rattles)

Not just a breakfast.

- Mm!

It is good.

It's like a museum in my mouth.

- You are a sh*t curator.

Look, you've ruined my art!

No, no, no, no! Hands

notta on my frittata.

- Rent's due.

- Give me that!

You're both animals!

(Ryan chuckling)

- Are you going to

make me breakfast?

- [Ryan] You haven't

had breakfast?

- I slept late.

- [Ryan] I'm sorry.

There's cold pizza.

- You shouldn't have.

- I would love to make you

a four-course breakfast,

but I'm on my way over

to the hardware store.

Have you noticed the

locks don't work?

- [Jules] Which locks?

- All of them. Front,

back, both bathrooms.

Max and I learned

that last night.

It's weird, right?

- Yeah.

Maybe the previous owners

were super anti-privacy.

- [Ryan] Well, I am pro-privacy.

- I am also pro-privacy.

- I'll be back with new locks.

- Okay. Just shake the tarp

three times so I know it's you.

- Hey, uh you don't mind if

I smoke in your house, right?

(Max coughing)

Good? We're good.

(Jules sighs)

- Hello!

- Jesus!

- Good morning.

- [Ryan] Good morning, Peggy.

- Lovely day, isn't it?

- Sure. Great clouds?

- So, who was that

handsome young man I saw?

- Max?

Max?!

He's my soon-to-be

brother-in-Law.

- Oh, the whole family

living together.

- It's very temporary.

- Isn't everything?

- You know, Peggy, I am

baking some cookies tonight,

and I would love

to bring some by

but I'm just still not

sure where your house is.

(Peggy laughs)

- Oh, I just remembered,

I left some tea on the stove,

and I mustn't let it boil over.

I will talk to you later.

Good luck at the hardware store.

Bye.

(Ryan scoffs)

(timer ticking)

- Phone.

- Call.

Call, phone.

- Phone, okay.

- Phone, okay.

- Second word, two syllables.

- Two words?

Two syllables.

- Second word.

- Second word.

- Phone something.

Box.

- [Ryan] Chalkboard.

Two syllables.

Hat.

- Hat.

Beard.

- Hat, beard.

Top hat.

- Top hat.

(Max claps)

Okay.

Sneak.

- Sneaking.

- Creep.

- Secret agent.

Secret...

- Phone.

sh**t.

- sh**t.

- [Jules] sh**ter.

- [Ryan] Top hat.

- [Jules] k*ller.

- [Ryan] Top shot.

- m*rder*r.

Phone...

- I don't know.

(timer dings)

It was phone booth! Phone booth!

- Oh, John Wilkes Booth!

- John Wilkes Booth!

- Phone booth!

I was right there!

- Gosh, you guys

suck at this game.

- All right, my turn.

- I didn't get that at all.

- Okay.

(Jules exhales)

- One word.

- One word.

- Three syllables.

- Three syllables.

(knocking on door)

- It's Peggy.

- I'm sorry to stop

by at such an hour.

- It's 5:30.

- I know, I know.

I was just in need

of some flour.

- Sure.

How much do you need?

- Just one, maybe two.

- Coming right up.

- I love what you've done with

the place. It's very modern.

Hi, I don't believe

we've had the pleasure.

I'm Peggy, one of the neighbors.

- Hi, I'm Max, Jules's brother.

It's nice to meet you.

(Peggy chuckles nervously)

- Charmed.

Will you be staying long?

(Max chuckles)

- [Max] No, just

a couple of days.

- So what are you making?

- Excuse me?

- Making.

With the flour?

- Oh, the flour.

I'm cooking. (laughs)

Cooking cookies.

(tense music)

Oh, actually, I just remembered.

I need to leave. We

all need to leave.

(eerie music)

(eerie music continues)

(eerie music continues)

I'm sorry. I will get

that flower tomorrow.

(plate rattling)

Oh, the wind!

Oh, I just saw a big gust from

that window right over there.

These old houses

sure are drafty.

I need to go.

- Two flours, as requested.

- Ah, bless you.

(cello playing)

- Do you hear that?

- No. Nothing.

- Is that a cello?

- Ah, it sounds like

squeaky floorboards to me.

- I am not crazy. Max,

you hear that, right?

- Yeah, I definitely hear that.

- Oh, it's my car radio. I

must have left it on. (laughs)

I'll just go and

shut that right off!

- It sounds like it's

coming from inside.

- Everybody stop!

(laughing maniacally)

Oh, apologies.

Oh.

I am sensitive to the commotion.

Thank you for the flour.

Have a good evening.

(all screaming)

- Knife in head!

Knife in the head!

- Oh my god!

- [Max] That is a real

knife in the head!

(Peggy chuckles)

Knife in the head!

(overlapping shouting)

- Okay, well, it is

what it looks like.

(overlapping screaming)

Can we do some breathing

exercises together?

I don't, I don't breathe.

(overlapping screaming)

You guys, get it

together, all right?

We'll do it on the

count of three.

Terrific.

- [Children] Come play with us.

(all three screaming)

(children growling)

- Oh dear.

(eerie music)

(all three panting)

- Holy sh*t.

(Ryan vomits)

Holy sh*t!

Holy sh*t!

- Max! We get it!

- Get what? What just happened?

- So you're saying those were...

- Yeah.

- And that means

that the house is...

- Uh-huh.

- So we're totally...

- Yup.

- I don't understand.

Did we take drugs earlier?

Am I on drugs right now?

- What are we gonna do?

- Burn it down?

- We wouldn't have a home.

- We don't have

a home now, Ryan.

I'm not going back in there.

- I don't understand

what is happening!

Were those your

neighbors or what?

- Ghosts, Max!

(slaps face)

We have f*cking ghosts!

(slaps face)

(Max panting)

Una fa- Una fantasma!

- How many of those

papers did you not sign?

- The bank has

the money already.

- You are worried

about money right now?

- That's something you do

when you have money, Max!

- Did you just spend all your

money on a haunted house, Max?

No.

So, shut up!

- I know, I know,

I know, I know.

In the morning we'll

call the realtor,

and we'll put the house

up, back on the market.

- Yeah. (laughs)

We were dumb enough to buy it.

(Jules and Ryan laughing)

- Exactly.

Exactly. We're gonna be fine.

- We're gonna be fine.

- We're gonna be fine.

(both laughing)

- Una fantasma!

(all laughing maniacally)

una fantasma!

(all laughing hysterically)

(birds chirping)

(Max groans)

(birds chirping)

- Good morning.

(Max whimpering)

(Max screaming)

Oh!

- No! No!

Get away from us!

(all whimpering)

(magical energy slams)

(all three panting)

- If you would like to have

a civilized conversation,

I will be inside

(all three groaning)

(no audio)

(trap rustling)

(low eerie music)

(no audio)

Honey.

Milk.

Suit yourself.

(all three gasp)

Go ahead. Get it out.

Let it all out.

You'll get used to it.

- We cannot stay here.

(phone buzzing)

- Hello. This is Alice.

- [Ryan] Alice, this

is Ryan Campbell.

I just wanted to

get a hold from you.

We've been having a-

- No!

- [Ryan] Hello?

- No, no, no.

No, no, no, no!

- [Ryan] Alice, hello?

Alice, wait, wait, wait!

(faucet running)

Hello?

Hello.

(Ryan grunts)

Hello?

God damn it!

(Peggy laughs)

- I would be very surprised

if Alice ever came back here.

- Yeah? Why?

What'd you do to her?

- Nothing.

I just wanted to be friends.

- We'll get another realtor.

- Peggy, how long was

the house for sale

before we bought it?

- Not too long.

Let's see. Seven, 70, 1971.

- 50 years?

It could be 50 years?

- We'd die here

- You might not want that.

- Ooh! This is really good tea.

- Max, don't

compliment the ghost.

- We mostly stay out of the way.

- We?

How many of you are there?

- If I said more than three,

would that be too many?

- Is there any way you

could...not haunt us?

- Haunt? Excuse me!

I have been nothing

but polite and kind.

I welcomed you to

the neighborhood,

I gave this house a fertility

blessing, and I made tea!

- We're supposed to

be thrilled over tea?

- It is really good tea.

- Hold up.

We need to talk about

this fertility blessing.

- Oh, we have so much

to talk about. (giggles)

Unless of course you have

somewhere else to go.

(Jules laughs)

sh*t.

(Ryan and Jules crying)

(upbeat rock music)

Imagine me and you

I do

I think about

you day and night

It's only right

To think about

the girl you love

Jeez!

And hold tight

So happy together

If I should call you up

Invest a dime

And you say you belong to me

And ease my mind

Imagine how the

world could be

So very fine

So happy together

(Max screaming)

I can't see me

lovin' nobody but you

For all my life

(children screaming)

When you're with me

Baby the skies'll be blue

Me and you and you and me

No matter how they toss

the dice it had to be

The only one for me

is you and you for me

So happy together

- Why?

I can't see me

Lovin' nobody but you

- Just let me poop!

Everybody needs to poop!

For all my life

When you're with me baby

the skies'll be blue

For all my life

Me and you and you and me

No matter how they toss

the dice it had to be

The only one for me

is you and you for me

So happy together

(home buyers screaming)

So happy together

- Oh my god!

And how is the weather

So happy together

We're happy together

So happy together

Happy together

So happy together

(Max grunts)

So happy together

(music fades)

(Ryan yawns)

- If I have to tell Peggy

not to follow me into the

bathroom one more time,

I'm going to rip that

knife out of her head

and shove it back in!

- I don't think you can

k*ll a ghost, Jules.

- How much longer can

we live like this?

- As long as we have to.

- I just...

I just wanted a normal home.

(Ryan sighs)

- Me too. Me too.

Nothing about this is

fair or makes sense,

but we've been managing.

I wouldn't be getting

through this without you,

even without Max.

- No, no.

This isn't just some sentimental

"at least we're still

together" situation, okay?

This is a god damn haunting!

Those are dead people.

And sometimes, Ryan, I

swear I can smell them.

Dead people.

- It's our first

home, a starter home.

They all have quirks.

- Quirks?

- Yeah.

I think in a few years we'll

look back on this and laugh.

- Nobody is laughing right now.

I'm not laughing.

You're not laughing.

- But why is laughter

so important?

- You brought it up.

- But I was imagining our

blissful, ghost-less future.

- Which you find

laughable apparently.

- Yes. I see our future

filled with laughs.

I'm a monster.

- You're a hairy monster.

- Ooh.

Monster has an itch.

(Jules chuckles)

(Ryan and Jules kissing)

(cello playing)

- Uh...

- It's kind of romantic.

- It's a ghost, Jules.

- No.

- A dead person.

- But it's just music.

It's nice, romantic music.

- Okay.

(Ryan and Jules kissing)

(water dripping)

What the hell?

- Oh my God!

I've never actually

seen it before!

- Oh my god!

This is too much.

- No, no. Totally, totally.

For sure.

But I mean, it's not

like...she can exactly see us.

- [Ryan] I can see her.

No, what I'm saying is it's

not like she's watching us.

- Uh...

Yeah.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Yeah.

(Jules chuckles)

(Ryan and Jules kissing)

(cello playing)

(water dripping)

- [Children] K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

(Jules screams)

- First comes love,

second comes marriage,

next comes a baby

in a baby carriage!

- Get outta here,

you little shits!

- That's it! I am done!

We are not doing this!

I'm calling a professional!

(doorbell rings)

- Hi.

You must-

- Shh.

(eerie music)

Shh!

Bag!

(medium murmuring)

(medium murmuring)

(medium murmuring)

(medium trilling)

Yes.

It is good that you called.

- I told you.

- Hmm.

(medium clicks tongue)

(medium muttering)

That's trouble right there.

(eerie music)

(medium droning)

Nope.

(medium murmuring)

Ugh.

(medium sighs)

(medium murmuring)

There is a very

dark energy in here.

- I knew it!

- Yes, you can feel it.

- What do we do?

- Well, honey, the good news is

is we can balance this energy.

I recommend our full

cleanse package.

That includes our premium sage

with a top-to-bottom smudging,

a liter of holy water,

and a package of holy

salt, all certified.

(brochure fluttering)

(Jules chuckles)

- Premium sage?

- I have more affordable

value options,

but the weaker sages

don't last as long,

so I'd just be back

in a month. (laughs)

Oh!

(medium wails)

(medium moaning)

How do you sleep here?

- We don't.

So, how do we use the holy

salt? Can we bake with it?

Do we need to cook

it with garlic?

Should we put it with

the holy water, or-

- How does this get

rid of the ghosts?

- Uh-uh-uh-uh.

I don't sense the

presence of any ghost.

There is a great

energy imbalance.

But an incorporeal

infestation is much more rare.

- No, lady.

We have ghosts.

Like a few, at least.

- It's true.

- Muchas phantasma.

- It's actually why we called.

- Ugh!

(medium humming)

Boo! (chuckles)

(bag unzipping)

(medium gasps)

Mm!

This here is a rosa sacris.

It will turn black if a

dark spirit is nearby!

- Ours are mostly just annoying.

(eerie music)

(medium chants)

(medium chants)

(medium chants)

(music fades)

See?

Nothing.

- Okay, well then, Peggy.

Peggy you can, you

can come on out.

She's usually always around.

Peggy!

- Peggy, you wanna

have some tea?

- She's really chatty.

There's also a couple of kids.

- Oh, so not one ghost,

but several. (chuckles)

Well, that would

probably require

our Platinum Deluxe

exorcism package.

It's not cheap, and

it's not pretty.

But it will eliminate

every single ghost.

(brochure fluttering)

- All of them?

(medium screams)

- A ghost!

A real ghost!

- Told you.

- It's never actually a ghost?

How exciting!

What an opportunity.

- So you can do

something about this?

- I'm right here, Ryan.

I can hear you

conspiring to k*ll me.

(Max chuckles)

- Peggy, you're already dead.

- And yet, I'm still here.

- Ooh!

- Yeah, it's a

knife in the head.

- You get used to it.

- Ooh!

She went through the door!

I've always wanted to do that.

- Yeah.

That's what ghosts do.

- Honestly, I've never

actually seen one.

- Isn't this your job?

- Usually I'm just nickel and

dimming superstitious people

when there's a

squirrel in the attic,

but this sh*t is the real deal.

Woo!

(medium scatting)

Oh. Mm.

- About that titanium

deluxe exorcism package,

that'll get rid

of all the ghosts?

- Oh, no!

Ghosts aren't rubbish

to be thrown out!

We can talk to them,

maybe negotiate,

get your weekends

back. (chuckles)

- What are we gonna do?

- One question.

How many batteries do you have?

(switch clicks)

(salt rattling)

(mysterious music)

Now, my grandmother, on the

other hand, saw several ghosts.

I'm talking hundreds of ghosts.

She traveled all through Europe,

dated a n*zi...

spy.

Performed an exorcism

for the Pope.

It was uh, Pope... Pious the...

seventh! Mm hmmm

Anywho, she foolishly

stopped in Transylvania.

Oof.

She never recovered.

So she's dead, or...

- Jules, she's a vampire.

- Vampires aren't real.

- Ryan we're in a

house full of ghosts

you're drawing a hard line

at vampires? - I think it

was a n*zi thing, right

- Everybody, sit!

It's not a seance unless

everybody's sitting.

Ay, ay, ay.

Ah! Mind the

protective salt circle

(chair slides)

Very good.

(eerie music)

- Is this safe?

- We are in a haunted house, hm?

We left safe a long time ago.

(medium inhales deeply)

Join hands, please.

(tense music)

(claps hands)

Hello lost spirit!

Hear me! (wailing)

I'm kidding. (chuckles)

That's ridiculous.

(medium chanting in

foreign language)

(all chanting in

foreign language)

(all chanting)

(eerie whispering)

I sense...

I sense a spirit.

(ghostly whispering)

Many spirits, actually.

(ghostly whispering)

Good God, this place is loaded!

- Can you ask them to leave?

(medium stuttering)

(ghostly whispering)

- They say they cannot.

Oh.

They are...

... stuck

- Okay, well, can you ask

them to leave us alone?

(medium humming)

- Well, they want you

to leave them alone.

- Ah, makes sense.

They were here first.

Hm?

- They want you to leave

for your own... (coughs)

(medium coughing)

Excuse me.

For your own... (coughing)

Your own... (coughing)

(medium gasps)

Looky!

(chair slides)

This is legit.

Mm.

Sorry.

I lost connection there.

I will attempt to...

(inhales deeply)

reconnect.

(Ryan exhales)

- Please stop.

This is a really bad idea.

Please stop.

- I hear something! A voice!

- We all do. It's Peggy.

- Oh, amazing!

The ghost returned.

The ghost returned.

The ghost returned.

- You. You need to stop!

- I think just the opposite.

We should go further.

- Please stop.

You will wake him.

- Maybe we should listen to her.

- No, no, no.

We'll be just fine.

(medium wailing)

(medium chanting in

foreign language)

(chanting continues)

(medium coughs)

Well, that's never

happened before. (laughs)

(ominous music)

(light switch clicks)

(Peggy gasps)

- Oh no. He's here.

- Who is?

- The Dead Man.

(rose drying)

- Well, that's a terrible

name for a ghost. (laughs)

Am I right?

I mean, they're

all already dead-

(medium panting)

(suspenseful music)

(medium growls)

(ominous music)

- Mortals playing games.

I've got a game

for you.

It's called

hide

the body.

(suspenseful music)

(neck snaps)

(Max shouts)

(Ryan gasps)

(grim music)

(Ryan breathing heavily)

- What?

(light switch clicks)

(Jules gasps)

It's not a very fun game.

(eerie music)

- [Ryan] You know,

I was gonna say

I was glad we didn't pay her,

but maybe we should

just pay her anyways.

- [Max] Look, if you guys do

call the police, let me know,

'cause I can't be here.

- [Jules] We're not

calling the cops.

I'm not telling the cops that

a ghost k*lled our medium.

Let's get this over with.

(shovels digging)

(tense music)

(all panting)

- Should we say something?

- Sorry?

I think we should say sorry.

- I really wanted to believe

that she knew what

she was doing.

- I was so sure she was.

- I did like her hair.

(all gasp)

- Peggy!

I didn't know that you

could come out here.

- Oh, yeah, all the

way from the back fence

to the front gate.

- You know what I realized?

Even if we do sell the house,

now there's gonna be a body

buried in the backyard.

- Oh, well that was

true when you bought it.

- What?

- What?

- So, how many

bodies does it take

before it's officially

a graveyard?

- 10, maybe 15?

- Oh, then this is

definitely a graveyard.

- Okay, can we at least

try to show some respect?

I mean, she is dead.

Okay, I'll... (clears throat)

We are gathered here today

to mourn the death of...

Did you get her name?

- No.

No.

- What was her name?

- I don't...

On the brochure it was

M.M. Mystic Emporium.

- M.M.? Okay, we got initials.

Okay, great. I can-

- This is the worst funeral

(all screaming)

I've ever seen!

And in my business, you

go to a lot of funerals!

(Max laughing)

You survived! (laughing)

Oh.

Oh...

Oh!

- Are you done?

(medium sighs)

Now, here lies Meghan

Marjorie Merkle IV,

patron of the mystic arts,

master of the mysteries,

and part-time psychic

to the stars. (chuckles)

- She was a wonderful woman.

The world is less without her.

She is survived by

her bitter mother,

her regrettably square

nine-to-five brother, Charles,

and, her son...

Bartholomeow.

May she rest in peace.

- Amen.

- Yeah.

- Except you're a ghost.

- I know!

Isn't it exciting?

- Ooh. Mm.

Look... (sighs)

There is something that I

need to come clean about,

something that I

should have told you

when we first became friends.

- Yeah. The Dead Man?

Peggy, are you talking

about the psychotic,

murderous Dead Man?

- No, what I actually want

to say to you is that-

- That we could have our

neck snapped at any second?

- Yes.

But the truth is

that the house is-

- Not safe.

Not safe. Not safe for anyone,

not even a trained mystic.

- Oh. Thank you, Ryan.

- Why do you think

she is still here?

- Because, as Ryan said, I

am a master of the mystics.

It's not surprising that I

mastered death. (chuckles)

(Peggy chuckling mockingly)

- Well, in that case,

I guess that I'm also

a "trained mystic."

Because the actual

truth is that,

if you die here,

you're stuck here.

- Oh, Peggy.

- How could you not

have told us this?

- Well, you look

young and healthy.

And I didn't think you were

gonna die anytime soon.

And I was lonely.

- What about the

neck-snapping Dead Man, Peggy?

- Well, this is

all highly unusual.

For the most part,

all of us ghosts

do not want any new residents.

That's why we work so

hard to scare you away.

- Well, it worked,

because we are getting the

hell out of here, tonight!

(determined music)

(Meg giggling)

Max, pack everything

you need. One bag.

- Got it.

- Where are we going?

- Anywhere but here.

(Meg giggling)

(ominous music)

(book clatters)

(book sliding)

(hatch closes)

- [The Dead Man] Interesting.

(drawer slides)

(bag unzips)

(Max exhales)

- Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

One bag, one bag, one bag.

- You don't have to

leave right away.

- Look, when Jules says pack

a bag, you just pack a bag.

- I've always wanted to

try ghost experiments.

Huh?

Hm?

- I'm gonna start the car.

- Okay.

(door slams and locks)

(door slams)

Ooh!

What's going to happen?

(window slams)

- Jules?

Jules.

- Ryan?

Ryan, unlock the door.

- I'm trying!

It's not working!

(doorknob rattles)

- [Max] Jules?

- Max, all the doors are locked.

I'm gonna go try a window.

(ominous music)

(doorknob sizzles)

(Jules shouts)

(Jules breathing heavily)

(ominous music)

(blades slice)

(Jules shouts)

Oh, son of a b*tch!

(Jules moans)

- Oh dear.

I am so sorry.

He must really not

want you to leave.

- Are you sure that it's him,

The Dead Man?

- He's the only one that

can control the locks.

- Do you have any idea

what he does want?

I thought we just

needed to leave.

- Apparently...

something's changed.

(Ryan groaning)

- Windows won't open either.

- That's not going to work.

- You're stuck in here.

- With us!

- [Children] Do you

wanna play a game?

(suspenseful music)

- No!

No, no! That is a bullshit move!

That has to be

against the rules.

- It's not. I checked.

(Ryan sighs)

- Stop whining, and

just play the game.

- You two are total little

shits, and you know it.

All right. My move.

(Max puffing)

(Meg chuckles)

- May I?

- Sure.

(air whooshing)

Damn! I almost felt it.

- That's weird.

I mean, Peggy picks

up stuff all the time.

She made us tea.

- Well, Peggy's been a

ghost for much longer.

Ooh!

Maybe I'll get stronger.

- Maybe. (coughing)

- Wait, can I cough?

(Meg hacking)

(Max coughing)

(both hacking)

Why can't I cough? (grunting)

- [Jules] Ouch!

- Oh, sorry.

- No, it's fine.

What do you think he wants?

- I don't know.

It's not as if we

have house meetings.

- Well, you might wanna start.

You really don't know

anything about The Dead Man.

- Oh, yes. The Dead Man.

(cello playing)

(water dripping)

- Oh my God!

- Oh.

Ah, don't mind her.

She just wants to play.

I think it's lovely.

- She's gotten a lot

better over the years.

- That's great.

So, The Dead Man?

- Oh yes. The Dead Man.

(cello playing)

(water dripping)

- Okay! What about him?

- Oh, well, that's

all we really know.

He's one of the oldest

and angriest residents.

We don't really

see him too much.

Just an old scary dead man.

You must have really

pissed him off.

- What? How?

We didn't do anything?

- Well, you did

bring a medium here.

- [Jules] So?

- So?

We're kind of, you

know, natural enemies.

- We are just trying

to live in our house,

- Well it was our house first!

(Max giggling)

(Max and Meg giggling)

- It tickles! It tickles!

- Fascinating.

Do me.

- Okay.

(Max giggles)

- Are there any

other ghost kids?

- We tried to make some

once, but Peggy said no.

- So, is Peggy your mom?

- No, we're way

older than Peggy.

- Yeah, but we're

still like kids though.

Like we like chocolate

and candies and

games and slapsticks.

- Yeah, but we're mature too.

I was eight when I died,

but I've basically lived

like 100 more years,

so I'm like in adult times two.

- Yeah, that's about right.

But

are you gonna make your move,

or are you gonna keep stalling

with these dumb questions?

- Excuse me, Tammy,

but a champion plays the

player, not the game.

Into the nebula vortex!

- Oh, sh*t!

- No way!

- Well, it was 1955, and

my father had just died.

So my sister, Paula and I,

we inherited this property.

We drove here from our

hometown. It took us two weeks.

Oh, cars were slower then.

So, the plan was to

fix up the house,

live in it for a little

while, and then sell it.

I was gonna take

some of my money

and spend the summer in Sicily.

Oh, I've always wanted to go.

- I'm guessing you

never got there.

- The place was a total wreck.

We had only been here

for a few days and, ugh,

mind you, there were

ghosts here then too.

So we brought out an appraiser,

and it turns out that the land

was worth a lot more

than we thought.

And well, well, well, Paula

wanted it all for herself,

so she (imitates

knife stabbing).

- She stabbed you in

the back of the head?

- No, she was aiming

for the front,

but I turned to

run away, so, ah!

- That's terrible.

- Well, it didn't work

out so well for Paula.

Remember I told you this

place is hard to sell?

I scared her every

night for a decade.

(both laugh)

- Serves her right.

- You know, it gets really

lonely being a ghost.

- But there are

tons of you in here.

- But everybody pretty

much keeps to themselves.

It's hard to make

friends when you're dead.

(Meg muttering)

Max, Max, I got it.

I know how you can get out!

- Yeah?

- If you just k*ll yourself,

you'll become a ghost,

and then you can walk

right outta here.

- Okay, even if I did

think that was a good idea,

I think you're forgetting

the fact that ghosts

can't leave the property.

- Oh, that's right.

Wait, am I stuck here?

(electricity crackles)

(ominous music)

Max?

This is less exciting now.

- What's going on?

- The power went out.

- Duh. But why?

(cello playing)

- Oh no.

What? what does that mean?

(water dripping)

- Never anything good.

- Ryan?

Ryan.

Ryan!

(ominous music)

- Guys, what's going on?

- If you die, just

know it's not that bad.

- Yeah, it's really easy to die.

(squelching)

- [Jules] Ryan.

- Jules?

Jules?

- Ryan, are you okay?

- Yeah, I'm in here. I'm fine.

Something's scaring

the ghost kids.

- Yeah. Peggy's really

freaked out too.

(Ryan breathing heavily)

(tense music)

(Jules sighs)

We need to find a way out.

- We're gonna be okay.

We're gonna find

a way outta here.

- You doing okay in there?

- Yeah, actually.

Just been playing

a bunch of games.

Little Tommy is a shark.

(Jules chuckles)

Are you doing okay?

- I think I'll be fine.

May have developed

a doorknob phobia.

- When we get outta here,

let's buy a brand new house

a house that no one else

has ever lived in before.

- Yes. (laughs)

Vaulted ceilings for sure.

- Mm. Mm.

- Double sinks.

(Ryan chuckles)

And one of those overhead

showers with like the waterfall.

- Oh, yes.

Oh, a five-star bidet.

(Jules chuckles)

a robot butler that wakes you up

in the morning with stretches.

- This is the perfect

home. (imitating robot)

(both laughing)

I heard you laughing with

the ghost kids earlier.

You've always been

really good with kids.

Even dead ones, I guess.

(both chuckle)

- Yeah, well, you don't

have to feed the dead ones.

- And they can sleep outside.

(Ryan laughs)

(Ryan sighs)

You know,

I never said never.

- What?

Is that a Bond movie?

- To kids.

I never said never.

- Did you think I did?

- No, I just...

I know that you could...,

you could always go

both ways, and I,

I've kind of always

been one way,

the no way, but I don't know.

Wouldn't be the worst

thing in the world.

- Well, I could still go both

ways, if you know what I mean.

(Ryan laughs in a French accent)

Jules,

I'm with you,

for you.

(Ryan sighs)

It would mean a lot to me

if we could maybe

start thinking about

or start the conversation

towards getting a dog.

- Ryan!

I am allergic to dogs!

(Ryan chuckling)

- I know!

I could go for help, get

a message to the others.

- Yeah, that's smart!

- You know me.

- Wait!

I don't wanna be alone.

- Then I'll stay here.

- Well, maybe we

should figure out

what's going on

with Jules and Ryan.

- Mm, absolutely.

I'll be right back.

- Wait, wait, wait, wait!

I might need you, though,

in case that scary

ghost comes back.

- Yeah, of course.

I am a master of

the mystic arts.

I'll protect you.

- That's right.

Maybe you can get the

doors open with magic!

- Good thinking!

I'll get my bag.

We'll get outta this, Max.

(slams into door)

(ominous music)

(door rattles)

Well, that's weird.

Usually I can just, you

know, (clicks tongue)

and it's real easy, but, uh...

- Stay...

- Oh my god!

- Let us talk

- We're trying to leave, man!

I thought that's

what you wanted!

- What I wanted

isn't what I want.

- Stay back, Dead Man!

I'm only more powerful

in my ghost form!

- Yeah!

- Wait, for real?

- Tell me, witch,

what do you know

about possession?

- Do you know what sucks?

This was supposed to

be our starter home.

Now it's turning out to be our-

(Max groans)

Max?

(Max screams)

- [Ryan] Jules?

- Max!

- What's going on?

(Max groaning)

(The Dead Man Snarling)

- [Jules] Max, can

you open this door?

- Jules? (bangs on door)

Jules. Jules, what's going on?

(The Dead Man snarling)

(suspenseful music)

- Max, I'm coming!

(The Dead Man snarling)

(suspenseful music)

(Jules gasps)

(delicate music)

(delicate music continues)

(delicate music continues)

(delicate music continues)

(delicate music continues)

(delicate music continues)

(delicate music continues)

(eerie music)

(loud bang)

(music fades)

(Ryan breathing heavily)

(electricity crackles)

(Ryan groans)

- Damn it!

- Would anyone like some tea?

- No!

Nobody wants any of

your god damn ghost tea.

- It's just normal tea.

(Jules sniffles)

- What are we gonna

do about his body?

- I think we need to

get outta here first.

- And what, just leave him here?

- [Ryan] That's not

what I'm saying.

- Well, what are

you saying, Ryan?

- I'm saying we need to focus

on what is in front of us,

or we aren't gonna be able

to do anything about...

about a dead body.

- You mean Max's dead body?

Just say it, Ryan.

Max's dead body!

Max's dead body!

- [Ryan] Max's dead

body. Max's dead body.

There's nothing we

can do right now

about Max's dead body.

- Guys.

- We are stuck in here, and

if we don't find a way out,

nobody's body is gonna matter.

- Ryan, he's my-

- Guys!

There's something

we should address.

(eerie music)

- Oh!

Whoa!

What the hell?

(mysterious music)

Oh.

(Ryan growls)

Get out!

- Wait, Ryan.

(mysterious music)

(quirky music)

Bang! (laughs)

It's Max!

It's you! It's Max!

- Why can't we see him?

- Every ghost is different.

He must be shy.

- This is amazing.

I mean, well, it's terrible,

but this is amazing!

Are are you...

Are you okay?

(curious music)

- Your wrist hurts?

Peggy, do ghosts hurt.

- In many, many ways.

(curious music)

- No, charades. He's

trying to play charades.

(curious music)

(curious music continues)

Don't try and open the

door. Yeah, we got that.

(curious music)

(curious music continues)

There's something in the bag

that could help

us open the door?

- What do we need, the holy

salt, the sacred flower?

What do we use?

- All of it?

We just...

We just have to try all of it.

- We're gonna need some tea.

(bouncy music)

(bell tinkling)

(electricity crackling)

(Jules shouts)

(bouncy music)

(bouncy music continues)

(bouncy music continues)

(liquid splashes)

(electricity crackles)

Ow, ow!

(Ryan groans)

(bouncy music)

(muffled music)

(Meg gasps)

(The Always Dying Man wheezing)

(chains rattle)

(ominous music)

(patient wheezing)

- Hello?

(The Always Dying

Man whimpering)

Oh, sorry.

No.

Calm down.

(patient whimpering)

Breathe, man, breathe!

Easy.

There you go.

In and out.

Okay.

(patient whimpering)

(ominous music)

(patient gasping)

- He was dying when he died.

So now he's always dying.

- I get what you're saying,

but there's gotta be a

better way to say it.

- You're new.

Eventually you'll understand

that forever is a long

time to feel anything.

- And how long have you

felt like an as*h*le?

- I read your book, witch.

Yet my possession failed.

Why did the boy cease?

- His name was Max, and I'm

never going to help you.

- Then help... yourself.

(chains rattling)

- Uh, okay.

What is happening?

Uh.

(Meg choking)

(suspenseful music)

(Meg choking)

- Strange, isn't it?

To be dying forever.

(Meg choking)

- How am I choking if I

can't even cough? (choking)

(patient moaning)

(suspenseful music)

(The Dead Man growls)

(Jules exhales)

(no audio)

(Jules grunting)

Uh, Ryan?

I'm stuck.

- Pull harder.

- What do you think I'm doing?

- [Ryan] Pull harder.

(Jules groaning)

(Jules shouts)

(Jules screams)

- Ugh, fricking house!

- What's next, Max?

(bag rattling)

(Jules sighs)

- Maybe since it's a ghost

lock, we need a ghost key.

(curious music)

- We have ghost problems.

We need ghost solutions.

- That's what I just said!

- Peggy, I need the knife

outta the back of your head.

(Peggy laughs)

What? I mean, no.

No, no, no. It is stuck.

Believe me, I have tried.

- Just let me try.

Please, Peggy?

As a friend?

- Well, if you put it that way.

But you're wasting

your time. (chuckles)

She said friend.

(Jules exhales)

(curious music)

- Damn it!

How do you pick things

up in the real world?

- Oh, I don't know.

It's...

You just kind of

have to focus on it.

You have to think

without thinking.

Really, I think you mostly

have to just want it.

Like I want tea.

- Okay.

(Jules exhales)

(Jules exhales)

(Jules breathes deeply)

(curious music)

(Jules inhales)

(Jules laughs)

- Ooh!

(Peggy groaning)

(suspenseful music)

(Peggy groaning)

(Peggy and Jules screaming)

Oh!

Oh, that feels amazing!

(Jules laughing)

(Ryan laughing)

- Go! Go!

- Okay. Okay.

- Thanks, Peggy.

(Peggy sighs with relief)

- Wow.

(Jules breathing heavily)

(curious music)

(suspenseful music)

(Jules groaning)

(lock turns)

(Jules shouts)

(knife clatters)

(Ryan shouts)

- Jules, are you okay?

- Open it.

- Are you sure?

- Just do it!

(Ryan groans)

- Meg, you're all right!

Still dead, but all right.

(body slumps)

(ominous music)

(Ryan gasps)

- Worry not about the witch.

The dead can't die.

Mortals, however,

can do so very much.

- Oh dear! Sorry!

(punch thumps)

(The Dead Man growls)

(suspenseful music)

- The failed position.

(The Dead Man grunts)

(gloves thud)

- What the hell do you want?

- Stay back, dude!

Jesus will mess you up!

- I am not going to fight

you. (laughing maniacally)

(The Dead Man shrieks)

- Where'd he go?

- Who cares? Let's go.

(mysterious music)

(loud thump)

(Jules grunts)

- Yes, it's finally

time to leave.

(ominous music)

(Jules breathing heavily)

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music continues)

(eerie music)

- Ryan?

Ryan, what's going on?

(eerie music)

(eerie music continues)

- All evening,

you've griped about

being stuck in this house

one short night,

whereas I...

I have spent centuries trapped,

imprisoned in this Hell maw.

Tonight, I leave this place.

May you enjoy your stay.

(Jules sobs)

- Ryan, I know you're in

there. Just fight him.

(Ryan whispering in

foreign language)

Ryan.

Ryan, I know you're in there.

(Ryan whispering in

foreign language)

Fight him, Ryan.

(Ryan whispering in

foreign language)

- My last possession

was not sealed,

something your witch

friend illuminated me to.

With a binding sacrifice, I

will finally leave this place.

(suspenseful music)

(Ryan choking)

Jules!

Jules, get out!

Go!

- Ryan!

- Go!

(The Dead Man snarls)

- No...

- Jules!

- Ryan.

Ryan, I know you're in there.

Ryan, fight him!

- Jules.

Jules, get out.

Go!

(The Dead Man and Ryan snarling)

You're not...

You're not gonna hurt her!

(Ryan groaning)

No.

You will!

(suspenseful music)

(Ryan growls)

(knife stabs)

(Peggy gasps)

- Ryan!

(blood dripping)

(Ryan groans)

(blood splashes)

(Ryan gasping)

- Jules.

(knife clatters)

(The Dead Man growls)

Jules. (groans)

- Fine.

You can be the

binding sacrifice.

I'll take a different vessel.

- Not so fast, pal!

When you asked me

about possession,

there were a few

things I left out.

Yay!

(The Dead Man laughing)

Mm. (cackles)

(The Dead Man laughing)

(Meg cackling)

Got you!

I got you, buddy.

Goochie, goochie, goo!

(Jules grunting)

(suspenseful music)

(Ryan groaning)

- No, no, no.

No, no, no, no.

(Ryan groaning)

Ryan. Ryan.

(Ryan groaning)

(Jules cries)

(both breathing heavily)

- I could stay.

I could stay.

I could stay.

(Ryan groaning)

(emotional music)

(The Dead Man growling)

- No!

(emotional music)

(The Dad Man growls)

(emotional music)

(emotional music continues)

- No!

I'm getting you out of here!

(determined music)

(Ryan groans)

(Meg screams)

(The Dead Man snarls)

(Ryan groaning)

- Come on.

(water spraying)

- Ha!

Ghosts can't cross a

moving stream of water!

Why do you think

castles have moats?

(intense music)

(The Dead Man yells)

(Ryan coughing)

(TV static crackling)

I can see. I can see.

(water splashes)

(emotional music)

(TV static crackling)

I can see.

I can see.

- Shh, shh, shh.

- You were right.

- You know how people

say that... (chuckles)

when you die, your life flashes

before your eyes, right?

(Ryan laughing)

If that's true, then, at

any point, you could stop

and wave at your future

dying self, right?

Leave a little message.

- And say what?

"Hey, Ryan, you did good."

I know you're dying,

and that probably sucks,

but you did good.

(emotional music)

(TV static crackling)

(emotional music continues)

(strumming guitar)

Say nighty night and kiss me

Just hold me tight and

tell me you'll miss me

While I'm alone

and blue as can be

Dream a little dream of me

(TV static crackling)

Stars fading but I linger on

(music fades)

- Ryan?

(Jules sniffles)

Ryan.

(Jules sobbing)

Ryan. (sobbing)

(emotional music)

Ryan!

(loud boom)

(birds chirping)

(chirping continues)

- Hey, Jules.

(delicate piano music)

- My God.

Ryan. (laughing)

(somber music)

- Sorry.

No more of those.

- It's good to see you.

- It's good to see you too.

(The Dead Man snarls)

(suspenseful music)

(Ryan choking)

- You took my freedom!

I will take yours.

(The Dead Man growls)

(Ryan choking)

(suspenseful music)

(The Dead Man growls)

Yes.

Yes!

Yes.

(Ryan yells)

(fire crackling)

(delicate music)

(delicate music continues)

(The Dead Man gasps)

I'm free.

(fire crackling)

I'm free.

(The Dead Man sobs)

Thank you.

(delicate music)

I'm free.

I am free.

I'm free.

(delicate music)

- Okay, so, is he dead dead?

- I think so.

(Jules crying)

- Ryan, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I didn't...

I'm sorry we bought this stupid

house, and I wish that...

(Jules sobbing)

- You got me out of there.

That's what matters.

- So, what's it like?

Dying.

- Oh.

It's the easiest

thing you'll ever do.

Kinda like greeting

an old friend.

- Ooh.

Maybe I will try it sometime.

(imitating German accent)

(both chuckling and crying)

- No rush.

- You're not staying, are you?

- I died on this

side of the line.

I guess we're lucky we get this.

- Where will you go?

- I don't know.

Somewhere though.

I just feel like

I'm never gonna see you again.

- Never.

Never say never.

(Jules sobs)

(Ryan humming)

Dream a little dream of me

(somber music)

(Jules sniffling)

(music fades)

(birds chirping)

(Halloween toy screaming)

(trick or treaters chattering)

- [Child] Oh, that feels good!

- Petey?

Where are you?

Petey!

There you are!

Hey, bud.

Oh, good boy.

- Hey, lady.

You know your house

is haunted, right?

There's just a bunch
