[music concludes]
Really? Candy corn. Disgusting.
Right? They used to give us full size candy bars.
- [screams] - [girls scream]
Well, you can blame inflation.
You ungrateful little shits, it's free candy.
[blows candle]
[whispers] Spoiled little fuckers.
You get all dressed up, you go buy candy,
just trying to make kids happy, you dress up like a scarecrow.
[knocking on door]
Er. I'm all done for the night.
[knocking continues]
Can you not hear? I'm out of candy. All right?
[thudding on door]
You're a little old to be trick or treating.
Yeah. All right. I... I got a little bit left.
All right, dude, it's all I got. All right?
I get it. You're creeping me to death.
Did you smash my pumpkin?
[scoffs] It's a holiday.
So I'm gonna give you the count of five
to get the fuck out of here.
Or you and I, we're gonna have a problem.
Five.

[whimsical music playing]
Wow, Tim, you must be ready for Halloween.
I see you already have your mask on.
Yeah. Funny, Miss Quigley. That's a new one.
Oh, and please. Give my best to your mother.
I will. Happy Halloween.
- Happy Halloween. - [music concludes]
[cell phone ringing]
- Tramer! - What's up!
You figure out your costume yet?
Yeah, I'm actually working on it right now.
Hey, what time we meeting up?
Oh, after I finish handing out candy, maybe six-ish?
All right, yeah, cool. Hey, before I forget.
Hey, this looks like the Red Baron, right?
'Cause I don't want people thinking I'm, like,
Amelia Earhart or something.
- Yeah, you look fine. - [Isaac sighs deeply]
Hey, is that Tim?
Yo, Tim.
Hey, you still gonna be our DD tonight?
[sighs] I didn't know I was...
Awesome. Cool. We'll see you later.
[Tramer] You gonna wash your hands or?
[sighs]
Hey, we can get another ride.
Nah. It's fine.
I wasn't gonna drink tonight anyways.
[scoffs] Why? 'Cause you're a lightweight?
No, 'cause I know I'm either gonna get stuck
pulling you or Isaac off the car later.
- [wood breaking] - Shit.
I gotta go. I'll uh...
I'll text you when I'm on the way.
All right. Later, bro.
I'm so winning this costume contest, this year.
[Tim] Hey, Mr. Hawthorne.
Let me help you with that.
I don't need help.
It's no problem, really. I got it. [pants]
[ominous music playing]
- I said I don't need help. - [groans]
- Now, get! - I'm sorry. I didn't mean to--
Didn't mean to what?
Get involved in some place you don't belong.
Hey! What's going on up there?
- [Tim pants] No I-- - Huh?
Oh.
Get!
Look, I'm sorry.
I really didn't mean to cause a problem.
Boy, you mess with someone's problems,
you best be ready to face some consequences.

[music concludes]
[radio host] What is up, Ashville?
It is All Hallows Eve.
Don't forget to light those jack o' lanterns
to ward off the evil spirits
coming to your door this evening.
[radio announcer groans] In another week,
you're gonna tell me to get ready to leave out
cookies and milk...
so I can get some presents from a big fat guy
wearing a red suit. Ho, ho, ho!
Okay, Ashville listeners, enough of this superstitious BS.
Coming up next is a new spooky track
to get you into the Halloween spirit.

Look around. They're scarier than the lawn decorations.
[ominous music playing]
[music concludes]
Oh yeah, well, they don't scare off your mom.
She likes a little extra skin.
- [chuckles] - Oh, please, just stop.
[chuckles] Hey, before you go inside though.
There's been a change of plans tonight.
Like, what? I'm supposed to go out tonight.
- I know. I understand-- - [police siren wailing]
[pensive music playing]
Hold that thought.
- [Fred] Howdy, Officer Wes. - Hello, Fred.
- Tim. - [music concludes]
How you both holding up?
We're fine.
Taking things day by day.
What brings you out here?
A couple houses in the area seem to have been vandalized
early this morning.
Seems like the owners are all out of town.
The strange thing is, though,
we got several calls on missing pets.
I don't know if it's related,
but have you guys noticed anything suspicious,
out of the ordinary?
- Nah. - Mm-mm.
Been quiet around here, hoping it stays that way.
You know how it gets around Halloween time.
Yeah, don't I know.
I'm gonna be out patrolling the streets regardless,
so if either of you see anything suspicious,
- call me A.S.A.P. Please. - We will, Officer.
- [Officer Wes] All right. - Hey, be safe tonight.
- [Officer Wes] You as well. - Watch out for this guy.
You can count on it.
Hey, hold up a sec.
Look, I'm working a double now.
I need you to stay here all night long.
[sighs] Work can't find anyone else?
[scoffs] I wish.
Look, I know you want to spend Halloween
with your friends and all,
but I just don't want these late night trick or treaters
pestering your mom all night long.
Can't we just leave the porch lights off?
Come on. You know
they're still going to ring the doorbell.
Yeah. You're right.
- What time you gotta leave? - Right now.
I gotta be there at eleven.
Here, take this.
It's a couple minutes fast,
but I set the alarm for seven and twelve
and that's when you check on your mom.
I'll set an alarm on my phone.
[Fred] No, no, no. Take this.
It's more reliable than your phone.
You're always tic tacking and facegramming.
I'll take the damn thing! Okay, I'll wear the watch.
- [Fred] Thank you. - Uh-huh.
Hey, look, I know things have been tough,
but your mother and I are really appreciative
of all the sacrifices you've made
and I just want you to know that.
[sighs] It's nothing Dad, really.
Proud of you son.
Proud of the man you're becoming.
Here, come here.
Really appreciate it.
- [watch alarm beeping] - Oh. Fuck. Gotta go.
Here, take this.
Hey, have fun tonight, all right?
Love you bud.
[sighs] Love you, too.
[car indicator beeping]
[somber music playing]
- [music concludes] - [door shuts]
Hey, did you see the yard decorations?
[Tim] Yeah. They look great.
What are you doing?
[Tim] Looking for something.
Like maybe this?
Yeah. Exactly that.
- Tim? - Yeah?
What's going on?
What's going on is I nearly get beaten
getting fucking pumpkins for you this morning
so we can carve 'em later.
My friends want me to babysit them tonight,
and now Dad's making me stay home and take care of you.
[sighs]
I'm sorry.
It's been a long morning.
I know it has.
Take a deep breath.
[both breathe]
[Linda] Try to slow down.
Life is...
so very short.
I want to make sure you enjoy it.
What are you doing?
I'm having fun.
[chuckles softly]
I'm not twelve anymore.
I know.
But you will always be...
my little baby.
- [oven timer dings] - [gasps]
Cookies! Please, hurry, go get the cookies.
The Halloween shaped ones?
- Yes! - [Tim] Yes.
I don't need to frost em, do I?
[Linda] No. They need to cool.
[chuckles]
[coughs]
- [munches] - [cookie sizzling]
Oh, shit!
- Damn it. - [objects falling]
You did make more of these, right?
[suspenseful music playing]
Mom, Mom, Mom. [pants]
- [Linda pants] - Mom you're gonna be okay.
[Tim] You got this, I'm right here.
- Oh, God. - [Linda groans]
I'm gonna put you on your side.

[groans, coughs]
[music concludes]
- [Tim] I'm right here. - [retches]
- [pants] - That's it, Mom.
Just breathe. Just breathe. You're gonna be okay.
All right? I'm right here.
Do you recognize me? [pants] Do you recognize my voice?
It's me, Tim, okay? It's your son.
I'm gonna take care of you, okay?
- [pants] Okay. - [somber music playing]
I'm gonna pick you up. All right?
And bring you upstairs right now.
All right. [pants]
I got you.
You've got it. [pants]
All right. [pants]
[pants]
- [coughs] - Just sit back.
[pants]
[coughs]
You need to take these.
Here, drink this. [pants]
[Linda coughs]
All right, Mom, you just had a minor seizure, okay?
You just need some rest and you'll be okay. [pants]
Just get some rest.
I'll come check on you later, okay?
I'll be okay.

What's going on?
[Tramer] Dude, what happened to six?
Oh, shit, man. I'm sorry. I meant to text ya.
- I can't make it tonight. - [Tramer] What? Why not?
...and hobgoblins.
[Tim] I had to stay with my mom, my dad's working late.
[Tramer] Damn, dude, that sucks.
You're totally missing your shot.
[sighs] Yeah? What shot is that?
[Tramer] Danielle, bro, she's here!
What? Why didn't you tell me that?
- [Tramer] I tried to, but-- - [breaking news alert blares]
Good evening. I'm Tiffany Warlock.
This just in.
We're receiving multiple reports about strange events
transpiring this Hallows eve.
Live on scene is our field reporter, Paulie Siglionie.
Thanks, Tiff.
As you can see,
the house behind me seems to have been
trick or treated to death.
[Tramer] Yo!
- Hold on a sec. - [Paulie] Since this morning,
multiple homes have been found
with their windows shattered and their doors kicked in.
Dude, have you seen the news tonight?
- [Tramer] No, what's going on? - Weird thing is
all of these homes have a strange symbol marking
the outside that experts believe is connected to the occult.
I don't know.
Looks like a bunch of homes are getting broken into.
[Tramer] Eh, it's probably just kids.
Why would kids do something this messed up?
[Tramer] It's Halloween. Does this really surprise you?
[Paulie] Mysteriously enough, we cannot question the owners.
As they all seem to have abandoned
their homes in the past few hours.
[Tramer] Hello.
We ask residents to please contact
the local authorities with any information.
[Tramer] Tim.
This is Paulie Siglionie in Ashville.
- [Tramer] Tim. - [Paulie] Happy Halloween.
[Tramer] You still there?
Yo! Hello.
- [doorbell ringing] - [Tramer] Anyway, uh,
I think we're gonna get out of here soon.
This party is kind of lame, so,
I mean, if you wanna hang out later,
just give us a call.
Ashville Police are advising everyone
to stay indoors and not answer for any unexpected visitors.
[knocking]
Authorities are also asking...
- [Tramer] Tim. - ...citizens to keep...
...a lookout for any of these...
- ...missing persons. - [Tramer] Hey. Tim.
They haven't been seen by their families
since this morning.
[Tramer] Why are you ignoring me, man?
[knocking continues]
[Tramer] Tim, hello?
[Tramer] Dude, are you still there?
[knocking on door continues]
[Tramer] Earth to Tim. Hello.
[knocking intensifies]
[Tramer] Do you know how to have a conversation, dude?
Come on.
Hello?
[children] Trick or treat!
[children chattering, giggling]
- [children] Thank you! - Uh-huh...
[Tramer] What the hell was that?
- [watch alarm beeping] - [Tim sighs]
Sorry, it was just some trick or treaters.
[Tramer] Oh, trick or treaters on Halloween. [chuckles]
- Weird. - Hey, I gotta go.
Tell Danielle I said "hey".
[Tramer] Yeah, I'll try to come up
with something better than "hey".
[clicks tongue] Sounds good.
[Nate] You're a star.
You're a star, Nate. Just nobody knows it yet.
Definitely gonna break 300 views with this one.
[exhales sharply]
- Shit. God damn wind. - [chuckles]
[Tramer] You have to unravel it first you idiot.
[Nate] Shut up. Get me another one.
Fine. Make it count though. This shit's not easy to come by.
Nice throw.
[Tramer mocking]
[Nate exhales sharply]
[Nate] Shit. Go, go, go, go, go.
[crowd laughing]
[pants] Shit, please tell me you got that?
Yeah but I don't think you're gonna wanna post this one.
Let me see.
Dude! Of course, I can't post this shit.
I'm about to break 700 followers.
These angles suck.
Yes, Nate. It's definitely the angles.
[all chuckling]
You know, this is why you never got into film school.
You know nothing about cinematography.
- Oh, and you do? [chuckles] - [chuckles]
Guys, what are we doing?
I thought we were going to be partying all night.
Babe, relax. The party goes where we go.
Well, babe, this party sucks.
[mocks] Well, babe, number one. Who, what and why she's here?
- Wait. Didn't you follow us? - Mm.
Ah. Yeah, only because I thought there would be a DD?
Hey, what happened to Tim?
Didn't you tell him Danielle was coming?
Tim was gonna come?
Yeah, he was supposed to, but he had a family thing.
Ah. Gotcha.
Yeah but maybe we could call him and he could give us a ride
because he still has to RSVP to your going away party.
- You invited him? - Wait, what party?
What party?
Of course, I invited him.
Well, whatever we're not going anywhere until we do this...
One. Last. Thing.
[Linda] Tim?
Is that you?
Yeah, Mom, it's me.
- How you feeling? - [sighs]
I've been worse.
[sighs] I know.
You never did say how many drinks you had the other night.
[Linda coughing]
Not enough. [coughs]
Yeah, me neither.
- [sighs] What time is it? - [Tim] It's just after seven.
Did we get a lot of kids tonight?
Mm. Not as many as last year.
Is there candy left?
- No. - Oh, thank God.
I don't want your father having any.
He still thinks he looks good in those damn shorts.
- [coughs] - [chuckles] Yeah.
I've been trying to talk to him about that.
[coughs]
I should get up and clean up that mess.
No, Mom, Mom, just lay down. I already took care of it.
[gasps]
- Just lay back down. - Honey,
you didn't need to do that.
It's fine.
It's not right.
You shouldn't have to take care of your mother,
at your age.
I'm sorry.
You have nothing to be sorry for.
I'm not ready to die.
But I cannot...
live like this.
[somber music playing]
[Tim] It's gonna get better. It's got to.
[coughs]
You should be out with your friends.
You should be with a girl.
You should be chasing your dreams.
Not supporting your parents.
[coughs] We could've gotten help.
We can't afford the extra help.
[coughs] I could have... I could've gotten a remote job.
I could've-- [coughs] Sold the house.
[Tim] Mom.
We are family...
and this is what we do.
You have always been my beautiful boy.
- [whimpers] - Love you.
[sighs] I love you too.
- [coughs] - Get some more sleep.
I'll have Dad wake you when he gets home.
Okay, honey.
Good night. [coughing]
Good night.
[coughs lightly]
[music concludes]
[eerie music playing]
[Nate] Come on, come on, come on, quick, come here.
[Isaac] Oh, oh.
[Tramer] This guy's been running us off the road
since we were in diapers.
- Yeah. He never did that to me. - Yeah, me neither.
Yeah only 'cause he wanted to lure the young T'n'A
in the back of his truck.
[all chuckle]
This guy's got a new paint job coming.
Fuck it. We've got some shit to spare.
- Roll this, all right? - [sighs] Fine.
- [Nate] Okay ready? - [Isaac] Yeah.
- One. - One.
- [Nate] Two. - [Isaac] Two.
- Three. - Three.
[PJ] Oh, shit.
[eerie music continues]
[music concludes]
[Tramer] We need to get out of here.
Not without that bag.
[Danielle] Nate, are you serious?
- That is just garbage. - [PJ] Yeah.
It's Halloween, he wouldn't just leave it out there
if you don't want someone to take it.
This is a stupid idea. Let's go.
- Yeah, let's go. - I agree.
Wait, wait!
Guys. It just hit me.
You haven't participated in tonight's activities.
You go get the fucking bag.
I'm not going anywhere near that house, dude.
Okay, well, Amelia Earhart and I over here
already did our part.
- Your turn. - Oh, my God.
- Go get the bag. - [gasps]
[eerie music playing]
[Danielle] Tramer, you do not have to do this.
[Nate] Just stop. It's fine. He'll be fine.
[Isaac] It's just a quick in n' out.
[PJ] Yeah, just like you, right?
[Danielle] And what happens when he gets caught?
Believe it or not, I don't feel like getting arrested tonight.
[Nate] Isn't your dad a cop?
- [Danielle] Yes, Nate. - Hey, this was Nate's idea.
[PJ] Yeah but Nate's your shitty friend.
It's on you, too.
Yeah, well, I'm everyone's shitty friend.
- No we're leaving. - Let's go.
- [music concludes] - [grunts]
[all chuckle]
[Nate] Oh, shit.
[ominous music playing]
[grunts]
[Mr. Brownstone] What the hell do you think you're doing, boy?
You bring that back now.
[music concludes]
Shit.
Little shits have no idea what they're doin'.

[Nate] Dude, stop making so much noise.
- [Isaac] Sorry. - [Nate] Ready?
- [Isaac] Let. Us. In. - [Nate] Let. Us. In.
Dude! You have no fucking idea what just happened.
Oh, my God. Calm down.
[Tim] Guys, what are you doing here?
Making sure you're still alive,
'cause last I thought you were gonna give us a ride.
Huh? What? Where's Tramer? Didn't he tell you guys?
[Nate] Tell us what?
[Tramer] That you're a fucking asshole.
Oh, my God, dude.
I didn't think you'd actually go through with it.
I am impressed.
That is the last time I ever listen to you.
Oh, my God, dude, calm your tits.
That guy's basically a walking corpse.
- He wasn't gonna do anything. - Really.
He put a fucking shotgun to my face.
What'd you think he was gonna do?
Guys.
Where did you get this?
These shitheads made me take it off of Hawthorne's porch.
Uh. Nobody forced you.
I saw the sack in the back of his truck earlier.
I was trying to help him move stuff
and he was ready to strangle me.
Sounds about right. The guy's a fucking whack job.
I wonder what's in this whack job'’s dirty sack.
Ew. Hopefully your brain. [chuckles]
You gonna let us in or what?
I need a fucking drink.
Yeah, I'm fucking freezing.
I really shouldn't guys.
My mom's upstairs resting right now.
Tim, let us in. We came all this way.
Just gonna leave us out in the cold?
My nipples are as hard as rocks.
Hey, just, leave this out here man.
Oh, dude. Stop being such a pussy.
I just want to see what's in it.
Excuse me. God.
I need to wash my face.
- You know where the bathroom is. - [PJ sighs] Thanks Timmy.
- Anytime. - [chuckles]
- Hey Tim. - Hey, uh, Danielle.
Oh, hey, what is that? A Lucy costume?
- Yeah. - [Tim] Make that one yourself?
No. Thank God. It would be terrible if I did.
What about you? What did you dress up as?
Guess I'm the, uh, Great Pumpkin.
Cute. Did you come yet?
No?
- [grunts] - [indistinct chatter]
You guys have a knife?
- What? - Or something?
- Do I look like I have a knife? - That's what he said.
Guys, I'm really glad you're here,
but can you keep it down? My mom's--
Ya just told us, "Your mom's taking a rest."
You got a knife on you? Come on.
Yeah, I haven't seen your mom in forever. How is she?
Oh, she's, uh... [chuckles] ...she's doing all right.
- Yeah, that's good. - Wait, wait. She beat it?
She's uh...
She's got cancer, actually. Brain cancer.
Doctors are saying she's only got another three months.
But you ask her, she'd say another three decades.
I am, so sorry. I had no idea.
Your mom's a fighter, though. She'll get through it.
I know she will. Thanks, Danielle.
- Tim I really wanted to-- - [Nate] Fuck. You.
[screams] Got it.
Thanks to none of you bitches.
- [Isaac] Hurry it up. - Let's see what Old Man Rivers
- got in his dirty sack. - [PJ] God. That stinks.
[coughs]
What is this? [shrieks]
Fuck? What is this?
[indistinct clamoring]
[Tim] What are you guys doing bringing this shit here?
[PJ] Oh, my God. Is that a fucking dog?
- I knew this guy was a psycho. - Nobody touch me.
Guys, he saw me take it.
He's probably on his way right now.
He didn't see us. Why would you say that?
Wait, remember those kids
that disappeared a few years ago?
- [Tim] No. - Everyone thinks
that he killed them and buried them in his basement.
No that's a myth. It's not true. It's not real.
Quiet.
That's what he did to these animals!
Quiet.
[cell phone buzzing]
- What is that? - Whose phone?
[cell phone buzzing continues]
Dude, why are you calling me?
- What? I'm not. - Uh. Yes, you are.
- Shit. - Oh, my God.
This isn't even a good prank.
Really, dude?
Guys, seriously, I think I dropped my phone.
Okay, I see. [chuckles] I see what's going on here.
You guys are trying to prank me.
It's not gonna work. You know why?
- Because I'm going to answer. - [cell phone clicks]
Uh. Hello?
You have seven days to live, Tramer, seven days.
[Hawthorne] You have less if you don't shut the fuck up,
you goddamn pecker head.
I think it's... I think this is for you.
[Hawthorne] You have no idea what kind of a fucking mess
you made tonight.
Now you all have to listen. If you even know how to do that?
[Isaac] Fuck you, you sick freak.
You listen to us. We know what's in your bag.
[Hawthorne] That bag is nothing
compared to what'll happen if you don't bring it back.
- Immediately! - [Tramer] No way, man.
We're calling the cops on your animal abusing ass.
Please do. Save me a phone call.
I look forward to sharing what you've been up to tonight.
You could easily do a few months jail time for this.
Isn't that right, Ms. Wes?
Yeah, well, you're looking at way more than that, pal.
Oh, I'd be lucky to have that much time.
Now, look, we're all in trouble here.
Bring back the sack
and maybe we can stop whatever's going to happen.
Guys, I need to get my phone back.
Your cars out front. Let's get this the fuck over with.
I can't leave.
You should be here by now! Move it!
[Isaac] Tim, please.
[Linda coughing]
Come on! Just give us a ride.
Okay, fine. Just keep it down until we go.
Oh, my God, dude. Bag that bitch up. Let's go.
- You can fuck right off. - Shut up!
[coughing]
[Tramer] Will you help me with this?
Yup.
What is this thing?
[Isaac] Oh, no, it's face, that's a face, that's a face.
[Aos Si screams]
- [shotgun blast] - [Tim] Okay, here we are.
What the hell is that?
Looks like someone else pranked him.
[PJ] Yeah.
[Tim] Guys, that's the same symbol
that's been all over the news tonight.
[Nate] Nobody cares, dude,
just go out and get your phone already, okay?
I'm not going in the house by myself.
Uh. Um. It's your phone. So it's your problem.
Here, I'll open the door for you.
- There ya go. Go on, buddy. - God dammit, Nate.
Will you stop being a stupid fucking dick
for once in your life?
You're the reason why we're all here.
You should be getting the phone yourself.
So get your punk ass, out there.
What did you say?
Oh, you heard me. Tell you what.
I'll go with you too, just to prove how much of a man
you're not. - Okay.
- [Isaac chuckling] - [chuckles]
Come on, Isaac. You're coming too.
- But Babe? - Don't give me that babe shit.
If you ever wanna see any of this ever again,
I suggest that you get the fuck out.
Great. Just great.
My girlfriend's holding her pussy hostage
and now someone's grandpa's gonna kill me.
- [Tramer] Now what? - [Nate] Where is he?
What is that?
[eerie music playing]
[Nate gasps]
Is... is that blood?
I don't know, but someone just knock already.
Move.
[Tramer] So whose going in first?
Hello?
[coughs]
[music concludes]
Hello?
Mr. Hawthorne?
[Nate] Yo, dude. Is that your phone?
Right here.
- [chuckles] - You're such a dick.
It's not funny. It's not funny.
It was pretty funny.
- It's a little funny. - It's not funny.
Where the fuck is this guy?
He's probably finding some road kill to fuck.
Jesus.

- It's fine. - [breathes deeply]
Guys, will someone call my phone,
- please, so we can find it? - Yes. Okay, okay, okay.
I'm doing it now.
- [Tramer] Jesus. - [cell phone dialing]
- [door creaking] - [eerie music playing]
[cell phone dialing]
[Tramer] Wait, wait, just listen.
[cell phone dialing]
- [Nate] Jesus Christ. - Go figure.
Of course, it's in the fucking basement.
[eerie music continues]
[PJ] Shit.
Is there a light?
[PJ] Of course there's no fucking light
you idiot.
[Tramer] Guys, watch your step.
- [Nate] Oh. Oh, God. - [Tramer chuckles]
[eerie music continues]
Shit, there's somebody dead dog down here. That sucks.
[unsettling music playing]
"Aos Si?"
Isaac! I thought I told you to stop touching shit.
I'm sorry.
Guys, come on. Please focus.
- Call my phone again. - [PJ] Okay.
I'm calling it, I'm calling it, I'm calling it.
[cell phone dialing]
[cell phone vibrating]
Oh, shit.
- [Isaac] Oh... - [cell phone vibrating]
You go first.
[Nate murmuring]
- [PJ sighs] - [cell phone vibrating]
- God. What is this? - Oh, gross. It stinks.
- [cell phone vibrating] - [Nate] Fuck.
[door handle clangs]
- [Nate groans] Someone's puked. - [cell phone vibrating]
- What the fuck is that? - [Isaac coughing]
[cell phone vibrating]
[music darkens]
Oh! [grunts]
- Oh, my God. Oh, my God. - Oh, fuck! Fuck!
[cell phone vibrates]
- [indistinct clamoring] - [Isaac] Guys, wait!
[indistinct clamoring]
[PJ] Come on Isaac. Let's go!
[music concludes]
[crickets chirping]
[soft rock music playing over radio]
[chuckles softly] It's been a long time
since we hung out on Halloween together.
Yeah. Wasn't the last time the year it snowed?
Yeah. One of the joys of living in upstate New York.
You never know when you're gonna freeze to death in October.
- [chuckles softly] - Oh, yeah.
Last I recall, you were wearing that
Amazon Warrior costume, right?
Yes. And it was a terrible idea.
I mean. [chuckles softly] I kinda liked it.
- [chuckles softly] - I mean.
Yeah, maybe for the weather, it wasn't the best idea.
Yeah, and if I recall correctly, some sweet guy gave me his coat,
and saved my life.
And then didn't talk to me for three years.
- Yeah. [sighs] I've... - [Danielle] Tim.
- Tim, I really-- - [dramatic music playing]
- [Tramer] What was that? - Oh, my god!
[indistinct clamoring]
- They are such idiots sometimes. - [Nate] Get in! Get in!
- Start the car. Start the car! - Start the car! Start the car!
Yes, I got the phone. Fucking go!
[eerie music playing]
[crickets chirping]
So am I going to report this or are you guys?
- Uh. Report what? I don't. - [music concludes]
I don't know what you're talking about.
The police will find out eventually, Nate.
Find out what, Tramer?
'Cause we were never there. Okay?
Our fingerprints are literally all over that place.
Okay and what do you think's gonna happen, dude?
Huh? You think they're going to believe us?
Uh. "Hi, officer. We went to return this sack of dead shit
and found the Headless Horseman."
Wait. Guys, guys, you really need to look this.
God damn it, Isaac, I thought I told you to stop taking shit.
Okay. Will you shut up for one second?
One.
- [sighs] - [door opening]
I guess I should just go check on her.
[Danielle] Yeah, I think that's a good idea.
- [Nate clears throat] - [sighs]
- [footsteps receding] - [door closing]
"Aos Si?" It looks like its folklore.
[crickets chirping]
Babe. Will ya just come back inside?
It's fucking freezing.
Are you really gonna be like this?
Fuck. You.
What? B... Babe! I'm sorry, all right, come on.
Watch out.
[eerie music playing]
What is it?
[Tramer] " The Aos Si come for thee
on the night of Hallows Eve."
Okay, so what does that mean?
[eerie music continues]
It says, "Every Hallows Eve, the veil between
the world of the living and the dead is lifted,
allowing Spirit's passage into our realm."
"Entities known as the 'Aos Si'
would disguise themselves in costumes of their own
creation in order to blend in with the humans."
"Villagers of old would protect their homes
by leaving out offerings of food and clothing.
In attempt to appease the Aos Si."
"The spirits traveled door to door collecting these gifts
on the last night of the harvest,
known as Samhain. Or as we know it today, Halloween."
"Over time, families grew larger,
making it nearly impossible to ration for the Aos Si,
forcing the spirits to feed on their own kind."
"Endless suffering led the Aos Si to harvest those
from their homes that failed the tradition
of appeasing the spirits hunger."
"In blood, they'd mark the sign of the harvest
on villagers homes, warning others
to honor the tradition or suffer the consequences."
[music concludes]
They sound like the first trick or treaters.
Oh, cute story. Sounds like Santa Claus to me.
More like Krampus.
Seriously, why are you being like this?
Why?
Because somebody died tonight and all you're doing
- is telling scary stories. - Okay, look,
I'm just as concerned as you are.
But you can't just go walking off like this.
Oh, so you can go and do dumb shit all night
and you think you can tell me what to do?
Don't touch me.
I thought you liked that, princess?
Shut up. I'm not a princess.
- I'm a Goddess. - Whatever.
- [PJ chuckling] - [kisses]
[Nate] Look.
Clearly the guy killed someone's dog,
so they John Wick'd him.
That does not explain the book, Nate.
Or the news reports.
People have been missing all night.
Would you just stop it?
The guy fucking killed himself, okay, it's as simple as that.
Now, drop it.
If you're not going to drink it, I will.
Awesome.
- [moans] - [Isaac kissing, moaning]
- Wait a sec. - What?
[PJ sighing, chuckling softly]
- [smooches, moans] - [smooches, moans]
Oh, God. I love the way your skin feels.
Is that new moisturizer?
Shut up. You're ruining it.
[both moan]
- [smooches] - [smooches, grunts]
[gasps] What are you doing?
I'm making us number one on the Hub.
Oh, give me that. How do you turn this off?
I... I thought you said you want me
- to get more pictures of us? - [PJ] Jesus Christ.
[unsettling music playing]
[groans] What the fuck?
- [bones cracking] - [groans]
[grunts]
[ears ringing]
- PJ, get help. - [pants]
Better get outta here before you get hurt, freak.
[ears ringing]
[grunts]
[breathes shakily] Last warning.
[ears ringing]
[yells]
- [bones breaking] - [screams]
[dramatic music playing]
[screams]
[choked screams]
- [music concludes] - That's it. I'm calling my dad.
[keypad dialing]
- [eerie music playing] - [Nate] What was that, hmm?
Like I said, we are not calling anyone.
- [Danielle] Nate! No! - [Nate] Oops.
Nate, what the fuck is wrong with you?
- [Danielle] What? - Oops.
- [PJ screaming] - [tense music playing]
Let me in, let me in, let me in.
- [Danielle] What is wrong? - [sobs, pants]
There's someone out there! [pants]
PJ, if you and your boyfriend are pulling a stupid prank
- it is not funny. - This is not a fucking prank!
- [pants] - [object pounding]
Let me guess. That must be Isaac now?
Not bad though. Really, not bad.
- [object pounding] - [Nate] I'll give you some
credit though, that was pretty good.
[Aos Si snarling]
I swear, if you two are joking...
I'm not fucking joking. [pants]
All right, you guys gotta leave. This isn't even funny.
Dude, Isaac, come on. Get up.
[bones cracking]
This isn't even a good joke, dude.
[heart beating]
[PJ gasping, sobbing]
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! [sobs]
[Tramer] What is that? What is that?
[Nate] What is that?
I don't know. I don't know.
- PJ, give me your phone. - [PJ] Okay.
- What are you doing? - I am calling for help.
- Jesus Christ. - [line ringing]
Hello. This is Danielle Wes.
[911 Operator] 911. Please hold.
[elevator music playing]
Are you kidding me? This is an emergency.
[Tramer] What is... what is it?
They just put me on hold.
[suspenseful music playing]
- Wait a sec. - [PJ] What?
It's just standing there waiting for something.
I think it's because of the sack.
What does that have to do with anything?
It... it must have been an offering.
An offering?
Would you stop reading this god damn book?
Look here, now look out there. This isn't a fucking story, man.
[Nate] Fuck.
It says, "The Aos Si are easily angered."
When you took the sack,
you must've appeared as a threat.
God damn it, Nate.
What? I'm not the one who took the sack.
Tramer was.
What's it still want, then, huh? I gave everything back.
[Tim] "If the Aos Si feel easily threatened
then they'll hunt all that hinder
their chance of survival.
Once targeted, the only way to stop its game
is to take the life...
and offer the body of a loved one."
A loved one?
Why not anyone or anything?
I don't know. It must be a lesson.
What do you mean, a lesson?
Isaac! No! [sobs]
[Tim] "If the Aos Si don't harvest enough to survive
they must consume their own, right?"
They want us to feel their suffering.
- [PJ sobs] - We need to go
to the police, Tim.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
If... if that thing is real that you're reading about,
that thing's not going to let us get to the fucking car.
No, no, no, no, no, I can't.
- [Danielle] Yes, you can. - No, no, no, no.
We have to try.
All right, we gotta go. Imma get my mom. Come on.
It's not after your mom. We need to leave her.
Dude, leave her. We gotta go.
Nate, how on earth could you say that?
- I'm not leaving her. - We are targets. She isn't.
[Tramer] He has a point, man.
We're just putting her in danger.
[Nate] Yeah.
Come on.
What are you gonna do with that?
It's my grandpa's lucky bat.
Let's hope it's ours too.
Yeah. You weren't even on the team.
Give me that thing. Come on, go! You gotta go, go, go, go!
[eerie music playing]
[intense music playing]
[screams, sobs]
[Tramer] Go, go, go. Don't look.
[Nate] Holy shit.
- [indistinct clamoring] - [PJ sobs]
Oh, my God. [sobs]
[Tramer] Dude. Let's go, let's go.
I can't see out the windshield.
[Nate] Oh, my God. [gasps]
Just... just floor it already.
- It won't start. - [car engine failing]
- [eerie music playing] - [Tim] Where is it?
- [Aos Si screams] - [Nate] Oh, shit!
[all scream]
[indistinct screaming, clamoring]
[Nate panting]
Wait. Wait. Where is it?
[unsettling music playing]
Looks like it's just a mask.
[screams] Oh, my hand!
Oh, god!
[Aos Si snarling]
[bone snapping]
[Nate screaming] Be careful it's in deep.
[Tim] You need to use your legs.
- [Nate] No, no. [groans] - [indistinct chatter]
- [music concludes] - [groans]
- [soft music playing] - [winces]
Can you feel it?
[groans] Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's just get it out.
Just get it out. Just get it out.
[screams] No, no, no. No, no, no.
- Just leave it. Just leave it. - I can't. It'll get infected.
I don't care. Just let it, let it. Don't touch it.
Do you want it amputated? [pants]
- No. - Okay. Okay.
[chugs] You know what you're doing?
- Not really. - [pants]
My dad taught me everything I need to know.
[groans]
[screams]
Can you still feel it?
Yeah. Yeah, it just hurts.
Okay.
- You should be fine then. - [pants]
[intense music playing]
[Aos Si screams]
- [music concludes] - [pants] What are we gonna do?
I don't know.
Oh, yes.
Yes, you do.
What do you mean?
You already said it, right?
[grunts] A loved one needs to die.
Tim. Buddy, I hate to be the one to say it but...
someone's gotta die.
[suspenseful music playing]
No one is going to die, Nate. And we are not killing anyone.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Not us.
Just Tim.
Why are you even saying this?
[Nate grunting] Don't play dumb, Tim.
You're the only one...
who has anything...
to sacrifice.
- [Linda coughing] - Oh.
Uh...
How long did you say she had left, Tim?
Was it one month?
- Or two? - Stop.
[grunts] How many times has she had chemo, Tim?
Stop.
Do you really like seeing her in this much pain?
Stop it.
She's not going to get better, Tim.
It's either her...
- or all of us. - Stop it!
[Linda coughing]
No one's got anything to say, huh?
It's cause we know it.
And you know it.
Yeah.
So, if you don't do this...
We all...
[echoing] ...die.
[eerie music playing]
[melancholic music playing]
[Aos Si snarling]
[Nate] How long did you say she had left, Tim?
You really like seeing her in this much pain?
How many times has she had chemo, Tim?
She's not gonna get better, Tim.
It's either her...
or all of us.
[music concludes]
[Tim panting]
[Nate] Tim, if you don't do this...
we all die.
[tense music playing]
[Tim breathes shakily]
[Linda] I'm so proud of you.
[Fred] Your mother and I are really appreciative
of all the sacrifices you've made and...
[Linda] You will always be... my little baby.
[Fred] Proud of the man you're becoming.
[Tim panting]
[melancholic music playing]
[Tim sniffles]
[breathes heavily]
[clock ticking]
[indistinct chatter over TV]
- [Linda] Fred. Is that you? - [music concludes]
No mom. It's just me.
Go back to sleep.
[Linda] Good. I don't wanna share my covers anyway.
[melancholic music playing]
[sobs]
Tim, I am so, so sorry.
I think there's another way.
Another way?
[Nate] What?
You mean you didn't do it?
- No. - [Nate sighing]
Tim, there is no other way.
Samhain ends at midnight, right?
If we can outlast it 'til then,
we should be able to get through this.
[scoffs]
Your mom needs to die.
My mother has been fighting for her life every day
for the past three years.
If she can do that, then we can do this.
We can't do that, Tim.
Look at us.
Look at my fucking leg.
Look what it did to Isaac.
It wrapped his skin around your god damn car.
What's stopping it from coming in here
and doing the same thing to us?
[wind whooshing]
I don't know.
Hawthorne never finished translating the book.
The book? [chuckles]
[Nate laughing]
Oh, Tim.
You never were one to make the tough decisions, were you?
[grunts, groans]
But I am not gonna die...
because of you... [grunts] ...and your selfish ways.
What are you even talking about?
No one else has to die.
[Nate grunts]
We can get through this. Together.
You're so naive, Tim.
The answer isn't always fucking togetherness.
That's what gets you fucked in the end.
What are you even talking about?
You and me.
We used to be like brothers.
- Nate, come on. - [Nate] And in return...
I lost the one thing that I loved the most.
Because of you.
- [screams] - [screams]

- Die already, bitch! - [coughs]
- [grunts] - [gasps]
[door slamming]
- [dramatic music playing] - [screams]
[Nate] You're killing us all, Timmy.
[laughs menacingly]
Okay, okay, okay, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I know what you want, I know what you want.
I know what you want. [grunts]
I can help you. I can help you. I'll--
I'll kill for you.
[grunts]
[breathes heavily]
Look! There they are! There they are.
[Tramer] Hey, stop! Stop the car. Hey, stop!
You want them. Not me.
You want them, not me. You want them...
[screams]
[snarls]
- [Tramer] Tim! - [Aos Si screaming]
Tim, no!
[guttural rasping]
No, no, Tim. Come on.
We got to go. We got to go. Come on.
[suspenseful music playing]
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
- [music concludes] - [stutters] Hey, everyone,
I'm your driver, Ian.
- Uh, where can I take you? - Anywhere. Just go!
Listen, I'm still kind of on the clock here.
I need you to give me a destination.
[dramatic musical sting]
Are you kidding? We need to go now.
[dramatic musical sting]
Listen man, this is only my second day on the job.
- [dramatic musical sting] - [Nate gagging]
I've been driving all these drunk partiers around.
[dramatic musical sting]
And I just need you to take it easy on me.
- [intense music playing] - [Nate gagging]
Just go before you end up like he did.
Fine! All right! Fine! But I want a five-star review.
Wanna get that bonus.
- [groans] Help! - [bones crunching]
[Aos Si screaming]
[music concludes]
[radio announcer] Good evening, Ashville. This just in.
We're receiving breaking news that multiple cell towers
across the county have been unresponsive,
along with a new record of missing persons in one day.
Eyewitness reports are telling us
this could be the work of a cul--
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Could you not turn off my programs?
Could you not bleed all over my interior?
[crickets chirping]
Look out!
- [breaks squealing] - [cat mewling]
[gasps] Did you just kill that cat?
No, I think they have, uh, nine lives or something.
[tire blowing]
[warning light dinging]
Oh, man. And I just bought those.
What, you can't stop here, we need to keep going.
Listen, we ain't getting anywhere
unless I go out there and fix this tire.
Besides, my insurance doesn't cover flats.
You've got to be fucking kidding me.
Listen, we're only a few miles away from where I got you,
and if you just come outside and help me jack this thing up
we'll be out of here in no time.
Jesus Christ.
All right, come on. Let's go.
[car door closing]
[girls gasping]
Hey, uh, anyone know how to use this thing?
Do you not know how to fix a flat tire?
What do I look like, I work for AAA?
I don't know.
Up here, come on!
Hey. Hey, where are ya goin?
All right, well, if you're not back by the time
I fix this thing, then, ya know, I'm finding a new rider.
- [signal clicking] - [crickets chirping]
[Aos Si screaming]
- [dramatic music playing] - [Tim] Come on. This way.
Up here.
Fuck! Come on.
What are we doing? Why didn't we wait at the car?
I don't know, but if you wanna wait
by the road then be my guest.
[panting] We trust you. Let's go.
[music concludes]
[Tramer] Okay, now what?
Do you really trust me?
[signal clicking]
[police sirens wailing]
[radio beeping]
Dispatch, we've got a car off to the side on Route 11

Hazards are flashing, and there's no one in sight.
Has anyone gotten any word on this?

We're so close. Come on, I'll carry you.
- No. Just leave me behind. - I'm not leaving you.
I'm just gonna slow you down.
No.
You should've let Nate kill me.
[Tim] No.
Yes. You would all still be alive.
- You don't know that. - Yes, I do. And so do you.
[Aos Si screaming]
The only thing I've been scared of more than today.
Is to tell you that I--
- That... - Tell me what?
That I lo--

Hey. Lay down.
Relax.
Dad?
What happened?
Where's... where's Danielle?
[Fred] Son...
What are you doing here? Why aren't you at home with mom?
There was this... this thing. An... an Aos Si.
Where is everyone?
Where is everyone? Tim...
