Original subtitles

Okay, my little trick-or-treaters.

What are we doing today? Oh, stop!

Oh, Pumpkin. Easy, easy.

Careful with the knife.

I have to keep you safe, Mommy.

Okay.

Thank you for keeping me safe, my little warrior.

Not a warrior. A Hallowarrior.

Happy Halloween, Mr. Tregor.

Hello?

Does anyone copy?

Today's date is October 31st.

This is an emergency broadcast on all available channels.

If you're listening to this,

people used to call me Pumpkin.

This is my last distress call.

And the fourth Halloween I've worn this mask.

I'm still celebrating today.

It's my family's favorite holiday.

My mom always said that the boundary between the living

and the dead is the thinnest on Halloween.

That's why we light jack o' lanterns.

And leave out food and candy offerings.

To honor the dead.

The crops have died off.

And I don't have much left.

But I have candy.

So much candy.

If there's anyone listening to this...

If there's anyone else out there trick-or-treating...

my coordinates are 39.446793 North,

76.702925 East.

I carved the junk o' lanterns.

I set up the apple bobbing.

The apples are rotten.

So is everything.

This will be a haunted house.

And you can celebrate with me.

Please.

I don't want to wake up on November 1st by myself again.

Sometimes I don't want to wake up at all.

I'll be here with my family.

I hope you can make it.

=

This is the last girl on earth, signing off.

Happy Halloween.

No trick-or-treaters again?

Whatever. More candy for us.

What are we doing today? Oh, stop!

Oh, Pumpkin. Easy, easy.

Careful with the knife.

I have to keep you safe, Mommy.

Okay. Thank you for keeping me safe, my little warrior.

Not a warrior, a Hallowarrior.

Okay. Sounds good. So, what are you gonna carve?

A silly face? A scary face?

Silly face.

How about you, honey?

What are you gonna carve?

Ooh. Very scary.

My jack o' lantern's a sad jack o' lantern, Mommy.

A sad jack o' lantern? I thought it had a silly face.

It's sad 'cause it has no friends.

It's all alone.

But we're all together, Pumpkin.

It's not alone.

Hello?

Hello? Do you copy?

Can anybody hear me?

Are you real? Answer me, please!

No!

No, no!

Hello?

Hello?

Please!

Pumpkin?

Pumpkin.

It's not real.

They're not out there. They're in here with me.

You're going crazy, Pumpkin.

It's just the wind, Pumpkin.

Not a warrior. A Hallowarrior.

It's sad 'cause it has no friends.

It's all alone.

Pumpkin.

Pumpkin.

Pumpkin.

Hello?

Wait!

Who's out there?!

Come back!

Don't leave me! Please!

I see you!

Please!

Aah!

Someone was here.

I'm not crazy. I'm not crazy.

The candy was gone.

Are you real?

The fuck?

Ah! Fuck!

Whoa! Whoa!

Don't shoot!

Don't shoot!

Are you shot? - No, it hit glass.

I got it in my fucking eye.

It's fine. You're fine. Everyone's all right.

Are you real?

The hell kind of question is that?

Yes, we're real. I'm coming out there.

No.

It's my house. I'll come to you.

Okay. Yeah. It's your house. You come to us.

Can you slide that bow and arrow out here first?

It's a crossbow.

Huh?

It's a crossbow. Fires bolts.

Can you slide that crossbow out here first, please?

Okay, I'm coming in.

See?

No weapons.

You're real.

Why does she keep saying that?

Why do you keep saying that?

Sometimes I see people who aren't really there.

Aw. Yeah, no. We're real, all right.

We were just passing through the woods.

We saw your lanterns. - Jack o' lanterns.

They're jack o' lanterns. - Jack o'-- Right.

Jack o' lanterns. We were-- We were passing through,

saw the jack o' lanterns on your porch,

and the front door was open

and we were just trying to survive like everybody else.

Pumpkin, is that you?

They called me that.

Okay. Can I?

Fine.

Okay, Pumpkin.

Oh, my gosh, where are my manners?

My name is Thalia and this is my husband, Royce.

Thalia and Royce.

Easy, easy.

How long you been out here on your own?

My fourth Halloween alone.

Are you sick?

Would we be standing here if we were?

- No. - No.

So you don't have anything to worry about.

Why don't you take that mask off?

The mask stays on.

Okay. Are you sure?

There's really nothing to be afraid of.

And you do look so pretty under there.

It's-- It's-- It's okay.

Wendy, god damn it, can you take that mask off?

You're gonna scare the shit out of her.

This is Pumpkin. This is her house.

The fuck are you supposed to be?

A Hallowarrior.

The fuck?

Got anything to eat, Pumpkin?

Candy.

My family always had full-size bars.

We used to be that house in this neighborhood.

But those went bad pretty quick.

But powdered sugar can last pretty much anything.

Even the end of the world.

Help yourselves.

Thank you.

Got anything stronger, Pumpkin?

- Do you like Smarties? - To drink.

Oh, right.

My parents keep that under the cupboard.

I'm not old enough yet.

Though this-- this one Christmas, when I was 6,

my brother and I thought this eggnog in the fridge

was whole milk.

And we both poured it all over our cereal.

And I threw it up in his sneakers.

I'm sorry. I'm talking too much.

I'm not used to talking this much with... people.

I'm sorry.

No, don't you say sorry, Pumpkin.

You can talk as much as you want.

Under the cupboard you said? Get that

Under the cupboard. I got it.

You lived here with your folks?

And my brother.

- And they are... - Gone.

Must be tough out here alone so long, huh?

It's been lonely, boring,

and hungry now that the food's run out.

How about you guys? - What about us?

Well, the crops don't grow.

And grocery stores have been picked clean for years.

What have you been eating out there?

Whatever we can get our hands on.

And you live in the woods?

No, we're just passing through headed south.

Gosh, it's been so long since we've seen a fresh face,

especially a little girl.

Last one of those we came across

was our Wendy over here.

Not a girl.

Anyways, we saw the lanterns and then,

yeah, figured someone must be home.

I like to call them junk o' lanterns

'cause, um, pumpkins don't grow.

You still have to carve, though. It's the 31st.

The hell does matter what day it is anymore?

Well, the 31st is special.

The veil between the living and the dead is the thinnest today.

It's why we put out the jack o' lanterns, candles,

and candy offerings.

It's to honor the dead.

Seriously?

It was my family's favorite holiday.

Do you guys like haunted houses?

Whole world's a haunted house now, kid.

So you don't celebrate Halloween?

Been a bit preoccupied.

- With? - Not dying.

You never went looking for any other survivors or...

I couldn't get far on my bike.

And this house has been in my family for decades.

It felt wrong to leave it,

to leave them.

Well, just wait until our family gets a load of you.

There's more of you?

Yeah. Yeah.

And they wear masks just like you do.

- Masks? - Mm-hmm.

It's been a rough few years.

Left some of us worse for wear.

Baby.

Thank you.

This is a special medicine.

It helps ease the pain and it helps us not get sick.

What is it?

- Napalm. - Cheeto dust.

It's candy.

You want some?

Yes?

We should take what she's willing to share and leave.

We're not bringing back lollipops.

It's freezing out there.

Wax and the boys need a warm place to stay the night.

I don't want to stay in this house.

It smells fucking weird.

All right, you can take your chances out in the woods, then.

The rest of us will stay here. - How many?

You know what?

Wendy's right.

It's getting late, and I don't want to--

Wait. You don't have to leave.

No, no, no. It's Halloween.

You probably want to spend it alone and--

No.

Um, it's fine. Um...

Your friends can come.

There's plenty of candy to go around.

Oh, that's very sweet of you, Pumpkin.

Thank you. - Fuck it.

Halloween, right?

All right, well, the camp is just up the road.

- I'll go get them. - No, no.

No, I got it.

I'll go. I'm faster.

I said I got it.

- You're leaving? - Yeah, but I'll be back soon.

Don't worry. These two are gonna keep you company, right, Wendy?

Yeah, sure.

Cool.

- Don't get too drunk. - No promises.

I'll see you up?

Okay.

What is that?

It's just an old song.

Do you like it?

I do.

Thought you might.

Don't worry. I'll be back soon with more trick-or-treaters.

Thalia?

Yes?

Just like I thought.

Pretty as a pumpkin.

Are you gonna do it,

or do I have to?

Don't touch me!

You swear you're not the only little girl around here anymore?

I'm not a little girl.

Neither is she.

You sure about that?

She sounds like one. - Hi!

Does...

anyone need anything?

We're fine.

Got enough liquor and candy for the winter.

That your daddy's?

Sorry?

The piece.

That belong to your daddy?

My mom's.

How many shells left?

Enough.

Want to carve some jack-o'-lanterns?

Can I see it?

- We could also go apple-bobbing? - You can take the shells out.

I-I just want to see it.

Been a while since I held one or even seen a loaded one.

Oh!

It's okay. It's just part of the haunted house.

Somebody call Wendy's mommy.

You piss your pants again, Wendy?

- Shut up! - It's nothing to be scared of.

I'm not scared. Just startled.

No, you look scared.

The fuck!

Shut up!

I used to get scared in haunted houses,

but it's all just smoke and mirrors.

Make them look one way, then boo.

Scare them from the other.

Candy.

Helps when I get scared.

Said I'm not scared.

You made all these?

Yeah.

I had a lot of free time.

Out of what?

Papier-máché, scraps.

Some are my mom and dad's, too, from when they were kids.

And those?

Those are new.

Cute.

I can show you how to make the bats if you want.

Mm, yeah.

Maybe.

Or we could carve pumpkins.

Not real pumpkins,

but I have some stuff we can carve.

Carving's my favorite.

Do you have a favorite?

Favorite what?

Halloween tradition.

You talk a lot.

Hayrides.

What?

Hayrides.

That was my favorite.

How come?

It just was.

Do you like tractors?

My sister did.

I think there's a tractor at Trager Farms.

I don't know how to jump it,

but maybe Thalia, Royce, or one of their friends can.

Sure.

I mean, Halloween's almost over,

but there's always next year.

And now that you all are here,

it will be nice to have an extra pair of hands

with the decorations.

We can light a candle tonight, too, for your sister,

if you want.

Or not. Never mind. I'm sorry.

Listen, Pumpkin.

You two thick as thieves yet?

...touch me!

You mad that the skeleton's gonna give you nightmares?

- I get nightmares, too. - Ahh.

Wendy gets them real bad.

Ahh! Sleep-talking.

"Mommy!

Mommy, don't let it get me!

Mommy, the skeleton's gonna get me!

Shut up!

"Mommy! The skeleton's coming for me!

Don't leave me in the haunted house, Mommy."

- Fuck you! -

Where's your mommy now, Wendy?

Stop!

- Oh! - What are you doing?

Aah!

Don't do that.

My house, my rules.

Okay.

Your house, your rules.

We're all fine.

See?

No hard feelings, sweetheart?

Thatagirl.

I'm not a fucking girl!

Who do we have here?

Just decorations.

A couple of friendly ghosts?

No.

You're right, Wendy.

Place does have a smell to it.

Wait! Don't!

- Oh, shit! - Don't touch her!

Holy shit.

It's not what it looks like!

I knew something was off.

Wait till Thalia sees this.

Don't tell Thalia. Please.

This is fucked.

I was gonna put them back.

I swear I'll put them back. I just--

I just didn't want to be alone anymore.

Just-- Just please, please don't go.

Please don't leave me.

This is a serious hand cannon, Pumpkin.

- Hey. - Eh, I'm gonna hold on to it.

Sit down.

She's just a kid, Royce.

Shut the fuck up, Wendy.

There's something seriously wrong with her.

We need to leave.

Here's what's gonna happen next.

I'm gonna have a look around this haunted house

and see what other secrets you got.

Wendy here is gonna keep an eye on you.

Right?

Make sure you

and the rest of your family don't go wandering off.

Don't worry.

Once Thalia and the boys get back,

we're gonna have some Halloween fun.

Trick or fucking--

Oh, God.

- -

Get off!

Get off!

Enough!

Fucker had it coming.

- Seriously?! - You need to leave. Get out.

I'm not the bad guy here!

You just killed someone with a knife in my house.

If you knew what they had planned for you--

Four years!

Four years, I waited for someone to come!

Four years I waited for a family!

And you just ruined it!

You ruined everything, you monster!

I'm sorry I came here, Pumpkin.

I'll talk to Thalia.

Did you know what she was gonna do to you

before we killed her husband?! -

Fuck!

How many left?

Why do you wear that?

Makes it easier to do things I don't want to do.

What do you mean?

Put on a mask and you can be anyone under there--

boy, girl...

monster.

Which one are you?

Whichever one helps me survive.

I thought that's what Thalia's medicine was for.

Don't believe a thing that which says.

That backwoods shit they cooked up is not medicine.

It rots you from the inside and it makes you hungry.

I have candy.

They don't eat candy, Pumpkin.

- -

You should be running!

It's my house.

Not anymore.

Go!

I like your hair.

- I told you to run! - They're everywhere!

Get that.

Here. You take it.

I've never shot one.

You're too small to win in a knife fight,

but you fucked up Royce's hand pretty good.

I was aiming for his head.

Get closer next time.

Do you talk or do I talk?

What's the plan?

Trick-or-treat?

Trick-or-treat?

Royce!

Open up. We're here.

Royce.

Royce?

Royce can't come to the door right now.

Pumpkin, is that you?

It's me.

Royce passed out, didn't he?

Sort of.

Open up the door and I'll wake his ass up.

Pumpkin?

I don't think we can do that.

Why is that?

I don't think there's enough room for everyone.

I thought you wanted to meet our family.

I'm having second thoughts.

Wendy, what did you do?

Pumpkin...

listen to me, okay, not Wendy.

Pumpkin, Wendy's not a good girl like you are.

Whatever's going on in there, I bet she started it, right?

Pumpkin--

Did she try and make us sound like the bad guys?

Did she tell you what she did

to that nice, little family that we met?

- Shut up, Thalia! - Pumpkin, listen to me.

Listen to me. Are you armed?

- Yes, I'm armed. - Good.

God damn it, I never should have left you and Royce

alone with her.

I'm gonna make sure that she doesn't hurt you, okay?

Up the road, there's a farm.

We're gonna leave Royce there in the morning, okay?

But you need to leave now. I'm sorry.

We're not going anywhere without Royce, you little shit.

If I don't hear his voice in five seconds, this place burns.

No, don't!

5...

4...

3 1/2...

3...

2...

Thalia, I said I'd leave him at the farm!

I said I'd leave him at--

I wanted to keep this clean, but now you've pissed me off.

How about it, boys?

Don't watch.

Pumpkin!

We need to make a plan.

Pumpkin!

There's this one.

I was afraid to be alone before.

But if this is what's left of the world...

I should have just gone through with it.

What would they want for you?

To wear my mask.

So wear your mask.

They're not afraid of us.

But under here...

we can be anyone, anything.

This is a haunted house, right?

Well, in here...

we're the monsters.

And after?

I don't know.

But I don't want to die on Halloween.

Do you?

Open up, Pumpkin.

Trick-or-treat?

Let's carve some pumpkins.

Don't fuck with that shit.

It may come in handy.

Remember, a haunted house is just smoke and mirrors.

Remember to get closer next time and make it count.

One for the road if we make it?

Shh, shh, shh, shh!

They'll hear you.

Shh!

Thalia wants you alive.

She didn't say anything about that pretty hair of yours.

That's mine.

Oh, look at all that orange.

Like wildfire.

So beautiful.

If I had hair like this, I could be pretty again, too.

Gonna fucking gut you!

Aah!

Holy shit!

I had to.

I know. Good job.

Here. You cover the front.

I'll take care of her.

- Should I-- - Not if you don't want to dig

that arrow out of her head.

It's a crossbow. It fires bolts.

Go, go!

Huh?

Oh.

Why... us?!

Pumpkin, go!

Hi, Pumpkin.

I don't like your family, Thalia.

Well, they don't like you, either.

You're not good people.

There aren't any good people left.

Where's Royce, Pumpkin?

Will you take me to him...

and we can go?

Hmm?

Don't touch her!

Go, go!

I never liked you, Wendy.

Pumpkin?

I like your style, Pumpkin,

the way you kill.

We could use a little girl like you on the road.

No. No.

No.

No.

No.

You little shit!

No more.

No more. No more games.

No more jack o' lanterns.

No more friends or family.

What does Pumpkin have now?

Say it with me.

What does Pumpkin have now?

What does Pumpkin have now?!

Candy!

Where did you get that?

Trick-or-treating.

Pumpkin...

what are you?

A Hallowarrior.

It's a haunted house, Thalia.

In here...

we're the monsters.

Monsters?

That's right, witch.

Do it.

Do it.

Get up.

I said get up.

You two deserve each other.

Just shoot her, Pumpkin.

No.

Wait.

Now she can go.

Don't make me regret it.

One day you will.

She'll be back.

But we should be long gone by then.

We?

I just thought...

It's not much of a home anymore, and...

I-I thought...

It might be nice to not be alone.

Yeah.

Today's date is November 1.

If you're listening to this,

people called me Pumpkin.

I'm leaving behind candy, a generator, and an old house.

If you find it, take good care of it.

It holds a lot of memories.

If you're out there, you might cross paths with us one day.

Until then, these Hallowarriors are signing off.
