Strange moans,
and bats, and bones,

and teenage monsters,
in haunted homes,

a ghost on the stair,
a vampire's bite,

better beware.
There's a full moon tonight.

Cannibal spiders
creep and crawl,

and boys and ghouls
having a ball.

Frankenstein, Dracula,
and even the Mummy

are sure to end up
in somebody's tummy.

Take a fresh rodent,
some toadstools, and weeds,

and add it all now in
the young one she breeds.

Mix in seven legs from
an eight-legged beast

and then you're all set
for a cannibal feast.

Sit round the fire
with this cup of brew.

A fiend and a werewolf
on each side of you.

This cannibal orgy
is strange to behold

and the maddest story ever told.

The Merrye Syndrome, so called
because its only known occurrence

is among the descendents
of one Ebenezer Merrye,

a progressive age regression
beginning about the tenth year

and continuing steadily
throughout the victim's lifetime.

It is believed that eventually
the victim of the Merrye Syndrome

may even regress
beyond the prenatal level,

reverting to a pre-human condition

of savagery and cannibalism.

Many authorities do not accept
the existence

of the Merrye Syndrome.

Incredible,

but true,

nevertheless.

I know only too well.

Of course, there's no
Merrye Syndrome anymore.

It was extinguished forever

from the human race

that fateful day,

ten years ago.

Can you tell me where
the Merrye house is?

I said the Merrye house.

If there is any such place,
we don't know anything about it.

Come on, get in.

Anybody home?

Anybody home?

Please say yes,
somebody's home.

Hello in there.

Hello?

Hello.

I caught you.

I caught you.
I caught a big fat bug

right in my spider web.

And now the spider gets
to give the bug a big sting.

Sting! Sting! Sting!

Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting!

Sting!

Sting!

Virginia.

Virginia, are you crazy?

Now look what you've done.

You're bad. Bad!

Bruno is going to hate you.

Elizabeth?

Virginia?

Elizabeth?

Virginia?

Elizabeth?

Elizabeth!

Bruno, Virginia hurt
somebody real bad.

You ought to hate her.

Elizabeth, how many
times have I told you

it's not nice to hate.

Oh.

One time I leave them alone,

and now this.

Elizabeth, I trusted you.
I left you in charge.

It's not my fault,
I didn't do it.

She did.
She was playing spider.

- You should hate her.
- No.

I left you in charge.

Virginia.

Virginia, you come
here right now.

Ralph!

Ralph! Ralph! Ralph!
Ralph! Ralph! Ralph! Ralph!

Ralph! Ralph!

Ralph, we're home now.

Ralph.

- Ralph, we're home now.
- Ralph.

Ralph.

Ralph.

Virginia, now you stay right there.

You come and sit down.

Sit down.
you too, Elizabeth.

Now children, I want
to tell you something

and I want you to listen
very, very carefully.

You remember last time

when those two children
climbed over the wall

and Virginia almost caught
them in her spider web?

Well, that got people
to wondering about us,

and that's bad.

Your daddy wouldn't
like that, Virginia.

Now, I can't be here all the time.

You know that I have to
take Ralph into the city

to the doctor once in a while.

And Virginia, you were supposed
to mind your sister.

You were not supposed
to play spider anymore.

Now you never, never can
play spider again.

Oh, Ralph, what have you got there?

Something that man had.

Ralph, give it to me.

That's it.

Thank you, Ralph.

Huh.

This is from a lawyer.

Yeah, a lawyer.

What is it, Bruno?

Something bad, isn't it?

How many times do
I have to tell you

just because something isn't good
doesn't mean it's bad.

I knew that.

It must be something very bad.

Nothing is very bad.

It isn't?

He's going to come here
and bring other people.

Daddy wouldn't like that.

What other people?

They want to...

They want to become
your legal guardians.

"As the only other known
surviving heirs

of the estate of Titus W. Merrye..."

Isn't that Daddy?

"...On the 14th of..."

Today's the 14th.

Oh, now children,

we've got to keep
some secrets today.

Yag!
What do you want that for?

Hurry up, I want to watch
Uncle Ned.

You're not supposed to.

- Hey!
- Look out!

I'm coming Uncle Ned.

I'm coming, Aunt Clara,

Aunt Martha.

I'm coming Uncle Ned.

Really, Emily.
I mean I wish you'd kinda...

Peter, if you don't like my driving
you may feel free to take a trolley.

Now wait just a minute.
This was not my idea.

I've never heard of the Merrye family.
What is that?

They're our cousins, darling.
It behooves us to meet them.

All right. I mean,
you know, all right.

But remember that it was
not my idea, okay?

Of course not, darling.

You don't have ideas,
baby Peter brother.

What in the world makes you
think this is the right road?

It's got to be.

Ha! There, you see?

So,

this

is it.

I don't see any sign of...
What's his name, the lawyer?

Obviously he hasn't arrived as yet.

The caretaker here probably went to
meet him in a horse and buggy.

Might as well go on up.

They'll be along any minute.
Why don't we...

What's the matter, Peter?
Chicken?

Well, I just don't think it's just
right to go barging in

on somebody that you're
about to sue.

Just remember, we're trying
to avoid that expense

- if possible.
- Well,

I'll leave that up to you.

Aaaaaahhhh.

What happened?
you saw a ghost, right?

Don't be funny!
It was an...

It was an awful...

A baboon.

Well, let's not have a
complete double dot fit.

Um, Mr. Schlocker,

I think he means that you open
the window from this side.

Oh, hmm, yes.

What's going on here?
Why have we stopped?

They're blasting up ahead, sir.

They're what?

Blasting, sir,
for the new highway.

Oh. Better wait it out,
I suppose.

Yes, sir. They won't be long,
sir, Mr. Shocker.

The name is Schlocker,
Mr. Bruno.

Oh, please, sir. Bruno.
Just plain Bruno, sir.

Oh, very well, Bruno.

I want to tell you I appreciate your
cooperation in this matter.

I wasn't expecting it, frankly.

Cooperation, sir?

Well, yes.
To tell you the truth,

I was fully prepared to avail myself
for the services of a marshal,

should it be necessary.

Thanks to your cooperation, it isn't.

I appreciate that and I'll do my best

to see that you're not forgotten.

Forgotten, sir?
I don't quite understand.

In the disposition of the estate.

I firmly believe that so many
years of faithful service

should not go unrewarded
no matter how ill advised.

- Thank you, sir.
- Now, Bruno,

I'd like to ask a few questions
if you don't mind.

Very well, sir.
Go ahead, sir.

Now it is my understanding

that for the past several years
you have been the sole custodian

of the three children of the late
Titus W. Merrye. Is that correct?

As you say, sir,
for some many years.

And that these same
three children have

never been allowed the benefits
of any sort of formal schooling?

Oh, no, sir.

The master wouldn't have allowed that.

And professional medical care?

On the contrary, sir.
I assure you

there have been regular
and frequent visits...

You mean they're not well?

Well, as well as
could be expected, sir.

You see, they're not

ordinary children.

I'm sure we can all agree to that,
Bruno, but nevertheless...

You see they're...
Well, you might call them retarded.

Retarded?
Well, I should think so.

Nearly full grown and never
a day of school.

No, sir, I don't think you understand,
Mr. Shocker.

I'm afraid you don't understand,
my dear fellow.

There are properly qualified
institutions for the care of

the deprived,

especially when there are substantial
estates to be administered.

Frankly, I find the whole affair
rather shocking.

I may add, there are proper judicial
remedies for such abuses.

I don't think the master
would like this.

Come on, buddy, let's get
this car out of here.

Yes, sir.

Ah, my dear, Miss Howe.

So nice to see you here,

and the young Mr. Howe.

- Hi, Schlocker, how are you?
- Good to see you, my boy.

Pete, this is my secretary,
Miss Morris.

- Hi, Miss Morris. How do you do?
- Hi.

Skip the rest of it, Schlocker.

Let's go in and take a look
at the place.

Oh, yes. I've been away from the
children too long already.

You just follow me and I'll show you
where to park your machine.

But if I may ask a favor, please.

Please treat the children tactfully.

You see, they're not accustomed
to strangers

and they might act wild
if encouraged.

Now ladies,
this is your Auntie Emily

- and your Uncle Peter.
- Elizabeth

and Virginia.

Those are two pretty names for
two such pretty young ladies.

- This is Miss...
- Ann.

Ann.

- Ralph, where's Ralph?
- Ralph?

- Ralph!
- Virginia.

Ralph, Ralph, Ralph,
Ralph, Ralph, Ralph!

Virginia.

Ralph, Ralph,
Ralph, Ralph, Ralph!

Ralph.

Ah, he's all right, Emily.
He's just a big kid.

Yes, it's like you say, sir.

He's just a big kid.

Now see here, Bruno.

You don't seem to realize just
how serious all this is.

Now these children

are obviously in need of
qualified professional care,

wouldn't you say?

Well, there's a great deal
in what you say, sir,

but I gave their father
a solemn oath

that I'd never allow
their unfortunate malady

to become the object
of public scrutiny.

Nonsense.

The days when we hid our insane
behind walls of shame

went out with that
old car of yours.

They're talking about us, Virginia.

- I know.
- But Mr. Shocker,

an oath to a dying man,
that can't be taken lightly.

Now Bruno, what do you
mean by malady?

I mean, well I've seen
backward kids, is it...

Well, no.
It's more than a retardation.

It's sort of a regression,

a progressive deterioration
of the mental faculties,

a rotting of the brain,
so to speak.

It begins in late childhood

and progresses rapidly,
ultimately resulting in

physical deformity,

rather like the last stages of paresis.

- Really that bad?
- yes, sir.

The Merrye family,
or at least this branch of them,

have been afflicted for generations.

And I'm sorry to say, sir,

I think this is the last generation.

What a shame.

Bruno, you mean all three of these?

Yes, sir.

The unfortunate result of...
Inbreeding.

Never mind that now, Bruno. We can go
into all that at the proper time.

Now let's see. Yes.

I would like to know the whereabouts
of certain other members

of the Merrye family,
the two sisters of Titus W. Merrye

and brother named,
I believe,

Nedric Merrye, if alive.

Alive?

Well, you might say so, sir.

Come on, Bruno.
Don't beat around the bush.

Are they around or not?

They're talking about Uncle Ned.

I know.

Well, it became necessary
to put them in a...

a more private sort
of an institution.

My good man,
are you saying that you...

that the family chauffeur
has been in sole charge

of this entire estate
and these minor children?

Oh, I never thought
of it that way, sir.

You see,
I promised the master...

Yeah. Yeah, we know
all about that.

Listen, Schlocker, it's been a long trip.
I'd like to get cleaned up

and get off my feet for a while.
We can go through this after dinner.

- Dinner?
- Yes, it is dinnertime.

A matter of fact, Bruno,
we intend to spend the night.

Oh, no, sir.
That's quite impossible.

Why, we're not prepared for guests.

There seems to be
a difference of opinion

as to who is the guest
and who the host here.

You do have food in
the house, don't you?

Why, yes.

You see our diet is very austere.

I suppose we could find something.

Yes.
Yes, I suppose we could.

Uh-huh.

I smell a bug.

A big, black, juicy...

I'm proud of you, Virginia.
You're doing so well.

Ralph is ready, Bruno.

Oh, thank you, Elizabeth.
Bring him right down.

My dear, there's no doubt in my
mind that we have here

an absolutely clear-cut prima
fascia open and shut case.

Great. Now all I want to know is
what is it worth in dollars and cents?

Well, that's a little difficult
to tell at this juncture.

Perhaps with an audit.

- Miss Morris, give me Schedule B.
- Right here, Mr. Schlocker.

Of course, this is only the visible part
of the iceberg, so to speak.

With a bit more information,
we can project a curve.

Hey.

Hi, Ralph.
Emily, look at Ralph.

He's gotten all dressed up for us.

Oh, yes. Isn't he cute?

Ladies and gentlemen,
dinner is served.

Ah, at last.
Thank you, Virginia.

That was very good, Virginia.

Can I feed Winifred now?

Winifred? No, no, not now.
Can't she wait?

If she gets hungry, she'll go looking
for something to eat.

Oh, in that case, you go right ahead.
But hurry up.

- Hurry up.
- I will, I will.

Hungry, Miss Morris?

Oh, yes. I'm famished.

Shall we then?

Well, there we are.

Just sit wherever you like.

We're not very formal here
at the Merrye house.

We haven't had guests
in a long time.

No, it's been a long, long time.

I might add that
it's a great pleasure.

You can sit down now, Ralph.

Winifred?

Winifred?

Barney, you came back.

Naughty Winifred.
you didn't tell me.

Virginia?
We're waiting for you.

Sit in your chair, Virginia, please.

Voilà!

What

is that?

Well, it's rabbit,

obviously.

Not bad, Bruno.
Looks done to a turn.

Thank you, sir.
I hope you enjoy it.

You know, we're very fortunate
to have meat for our guests.

You see, we're vegetarians.

- Vegetarians?
- It's dead.

We don't eat dead things.

- But good Lord, man, why on...
- The master...

Don't say it.
You made a promise.

It was no idle whim, I assure you.

The master knew of the grave danger.

The danger?

Yes, Bruno. What is that
supposed to mean?

Well, the master believed,
and he should know,

that the eating of flesh would hasten
the progress of their condition.

- Now I've heard everything.
- Wait a minute, Bruno.

Now you mean like that old story about
the lion cub who's actually tame

until he gets his first taste
of fresh meat, right?

I'm afraid it's even more
serious than that, sir.

Well,

whatever that is,
rabbit or whatever,

I pass.

Well, it looks good to me.
Hey, I'll carve.

Thank you, sir.
Carry on.

Oh, and I must tell you all.

You have Ralph here to thank
for providing it.

Is that right?
Good for you, Ralph.

I'll have something else.

Thank you.

What do you call these?

A rare treat.
Our favorite dish.

We call it souffléd fungi.

What?

Mushrooms, Schlocker.

- Oh, mushrooms.
- Yes.

A real staple. They grow profusely
on the grounds.

And did Ralph...

Oh, no, no.

Virginia provided these.
You see

she has an uncanny knack
for picking only the

non-poisonous ones.

Come on, Schlocker.
Let's not hog the stuff.

There you go.

Thank you, Uncle Peter.

Thank you, Uncle Peter.

Hey, Schlocker, you certainly
can't say they're not polite.

Oh, Miss Howe,

if you don't feel up to
the heavier fare,

perhaps you'd like to try some
of our fresh garden greens?

Yeah, Emily, here.
Try the salad.

Allow me.

This thing isn't dressed.

Isn't Ralph a vegetarian, too?

Oh, yes, but Ralph's allowed to eat
anything that he catches.

Oh!

Emily, this is very good.

You don't know what you're missing.

As I told you,
our diet is very austere,

but it's most healthful.

That's great. I think everybody
ought to eat like that.

Oh, we have our delicacies, too,

but they're not in season right now.

Oh, no, no, sir.
You wouldn't want any of that.

Oh, no. I guess not.

Yech!

What do you think about spending
the night now, Emily?

You couldn't drag me away, Peter.

Good show, my dear.
I'm with you.

Oh, it's like I told you, sir.
If...

There's nothing more to say, Bruno.

Let's make things easy on yourself.
We want to be fair.

The sisters can move in together
and you and Ralph.

Well, we might do that.

Oh, no, no. It's quite impossible.
It's too dangerous.

You see, this is an old building.

The wood is rotten.

You'd have to know your
way about in the dark.

Nonsense. The next thing you'll
tell us it's haunted.

Hau...
Oh, no, nothing like that.

He means they're vampires.

Oh, yes, and werewolves.

Are you a horror film fan,
Miss Morris?

Oh, yes. I love it.
Dracula, Frankenstein...

- And the Mummy?
- Oh, the Mummy.

I love the Mummy.
The way he walks,

step, scrape, step, scrape.

Oh, and the Wolf man.
Ahh!

There's going to be
a full moon tonight.

Mr. Schlocker, if you don't need
me any more tonight,

I could just as well stay down...

There's an inn in the village.

As I see it, there are
only two rooms, anyway.

Peter, if you took the car,
do you think you could find

lodgings for Miss Morris?

Yeah, I saw a motel
coming in, yeah.

Fine, fine.
Good idea.

Just be sure you have her back
on time, young man.

- Busy day ahead, you know.
- Don't worry.

- Thank you, Mr. Howe.
- You're very welcome.

Children, some of our guests
are going to stay the night.

Would you come help me
prepare their rooms?

Yes, Bruno.

Ahh! Spider!

Got it.

I hate spiders.

We have lots of spiders.

Do you like spiders, Mr. Howe?

Oh, sure, Virginia.
I love spiders.

Do you? Would you like to
play spider with me?

- Virginia.
- Sure.

I'll play spider with you,
maybe tomorrow.

I'm sorry, Mr. Howe, that we couldn't
accommodate everyone,

but I'll be looking forward
to seeing you tomorrow.

- Me too, Bruno.
- Thank you, sir.

Thank you very much.

Good night, kids.

Well, Miss Morris, we should be
getting an early start.

I'd like that very much, Mr. Howe.

Hey...

This is the phoniest set up
I've ever seen.

There is something terribly wrong here

and I intend to find out
exactly what it is.

There we go.

Say, it's still early, Miss Morris.
Perhaps you'd like to have a drink

at that inn in the village that
Bruno mentioned?

I'd like that very much, Mr. Howe.

Oh, and maybe a sandwich,
if you don't mind.

Virginia.

Virginia.

Shh.

Are you going to kiss
daddy good night?

Um-hum.
Elizabeth, are you scared?

- Scared of what?
- you know, those people.

I hate them.

You're not supposed to hate.

You should, too.
They don't like spiders.

I know.

That little man looks just like a

big, fat bug, doesn't he?

Yes, he does.

You know what I'd like to do?

Is it really lots of fun
playing spider, Virginia?

You bet.

I'm coming to tuck you in, daddy.

Nighty night, daddy.

Now... now see here.

This won't do.

This has gone quite far enough.

Ladies.

Beyond the bounds of
prudence and good taste.

I don't know what you people
are up to here but

I'm going to have to call in
the authorities.

Now there are laws,

criminal laws...

Kill him! Kill him!

No, this isn't right.
There are proper procedures.

It's against all remedies.

These things can be litigated!

Kill him!

And now we can put him
right back into the bed.

And Bruno will never even
have to know...

Please don't hate me.
I didn't mean to do it.

She made me do it.
She made me do it, Bruno.

Well, he was spying on us.

Well, he was gonna tell.

He was gonna tell on us, Bruno.

Yes, Elizabeth,
he was going to tell.

Now don't you worry, Virginia.

I'm not gonna hate you.

I knew this was coming some day,

but it's so soon.

And you really and truly
don't hate me?

I promised your daddy
I'd never, never hate you.

You did?

You ought to hate him.

Elizabeth, I told you
it isn't nice to hate.

Children, I've got something
I want to tell you

and I want you to listen
very, very carefully.

A long, long time ago

I promised your daddy that

I'd take care of you and Ralph
forever and ever.

And then

came this Mr. Schlocker.
He was a nasty, mean man.

He wanted to take you away

where old Bruno would
never see you again.

But

you hurt Mr. Schlocker.

He can't do that now.

But soon there'll be more
Mr. Schlockers

and they will be nastier and
meaner than he was.

You won't be able to hurt
all them because

there'll be too many of them.

They can't take me away
from you, Bruno.

They can't make me go away.

You won't let them,
will you, Bruno?

I promised your daddy I wouldn't.

I knew you wouldn't, Bruno.

I'm not afraid.

Well,

we didn't have much time, anyway.

Pretty soon Ralph he'll be

ready to join Uncle Ned
and Aunt Clara,

and then you.

We want to stay here forever
and ever, Bruno,

with you, and Ralph,
and Uncle Ned.

We will.

I promise, forever and ever.

We will. You know,

I know where there's a nice new toy

that will do a wonderful thing.

A toy?

Yes, and you can stay up
late just to see it.

- Can we?
- Uh-huh.

Now I have to go a little
ways to get it,

but it'll only take me
a little while.

Please don't go away, Bruno.
I'm scared.

It won't take but a few minutes

and I'll be back.
Now Elizabeth,

I expect you to take care
of your brother and sister

and see that they
don't get in any trouble.

Will you do that?

I will, Bruno.

Got to hurry.

Schlocker? Schlocker?

Schlocker? Schlock...!

Schlocker!

She'll tell.

Catch her! Catch her!
Don't let her get away!

She'll tell. Catch her!

Aunt Emily?

Aunt Emily?

Where'd she go?

Aunt Emily?

There she goes!

Get her! Get her!

Hey, Liz.

Hey,

are you really a Wolf man fan, Ann?

Oh, yes. I think that's how
every man should be,

like a wild beast.

No vacancy again.

That's the last one, Ann.

There isn't another town for 50 miles.

I guess we shouldn't have spent
all that time at the Village Inn.

I didn't realize how late
it was getting.

You lose count. They keep taking away
the glasses. What was that?

I know, but I remember
exactly how many.

Listen, there's nothing we can
do except go back

and spend the night with
Emily and Schlocker.

Gotta, gotta hurry.

Eck!

Spiders aren't supposed
to eat other spiders.

Cannibal spiders do.

Bruno! Bruno!

It doesn't sound like Bruno.

Oh no. It's Uncle Peter
and that pretty lady.

They've come back.

Virginia, you mustn't hurt anyone else.

Bruno will really hate you.

He will not.

Anyway, I like Uncle Peter.
He's not like that bad man.

All the same,
they'll tell on us.

Would they?

Would they tell?

Of course they'll tell. Bruno said
there'd be others, didn't he?

They're coming.
What do we do?

We'll have to make a plan.

Somebody's up and about.

- Good.
- I hope it's not that Ralph.

Oh, Ralph's just a big kid.

- Do you really think so?
- Sure.

Hi, kids.

It looks as if Miss Morris and I
are gonna have to spend

the night here after all.

There's no room in the inn,
as they say.

Good evening, Uncle Peter.

Uh-huh.

Uhm, is Mr. Bruno about?

No. No, he's away.

- Won't you come in?
- Yes, do come in.

How about Aunt Emily?
Is she around?

Oh, shh. Shh.

There's really no
need to disturb anyone.

Alrighty.
When does Mr. Bruno get back?

He'll be along by and by.

Now Uncle Peter, you just make
yourself right at home.

Virginia, dear, you may
entertain Uncle Peter

while I take care of this pretty lady.

It's all right.

I'm sure Elizabeth knows what to do.

Well, if you really think so.

Sure. Listen, Emily is very
easy to get along with.

- When she's asleep.
- Oh, that won't be necessary.

Ann will have daddy's room.

It's really very nice.

There you go.
See?

Thank you, Elizabeth.
you're really very kind.

Well, good night.

Yeah.

See you in the morning.

It was awfully nice.

This way, pretty lady.

I'm glad you came back.

I like you.

I like you, too.

You're a nice lady.
I liked you right away.

You're not like those others.

Oh, Virginia likes you, too,
and Ralph.

We all like you.
And Uncle Peter, too.

You'd never tell,

no matter what Bruno says.

You'd never tell.

I know you wouldn't.

I like you, pretty lady.

Pretty lady.

And the big, black spider
goes round and round

and wraps the bug all up
in her spider web.

Virginia?

What happens when a spider gets
a bug all wrapped up in her web?

Uh-huh. I won't tell.

Ah, all right.

How long does it take
to play this game?

Oh, we're almost done.

There now.

Virginia?

Hey, what's the spider do now?

What? Oh, yes.

Now the spider does a little
dance for the bug.

She has to tease him,

torment him,

and make him wiggle,

so that his juice will taste better.

Virginia, I think we better play
another game.

Uncle Peter, do you like
that pretty lady?

Yes. Yes, I do.

Do you like me?

When does Mr. Bruno come back?

Bruno won't hate me.
He promised.

Spiders like bugs.

They taste good.

But I guess bugs don't like
spiders very much.

I like spiders.

I like spiders.

I do, too.

Well...

guess I'll have to sting you now.

You have to what?

Ah, Virginia, what about Mr. Schlocker?

Mr. Schlocker?

Hey, Schlocker!

Sting!

Well, I have to go away for a minute.

But I'll be right back.

Don't go away, bug.

What are we gonna do with her?
Ralph can't let go.

What do you mean, what are
we going to do with her?

Don't you know?
You made this plan.

But I didn't have enough
time to finish it.

She wiggles just like a big,
squiggly bug in a spider web.

Uncle Ned could make her quiet.

No. Bruno would be very mad.

Anyway, Ralph likes her, see?

We mustn't hurt her,

just make her quiet.

Now spider's very clever.

She very cleverly

drains the vital juices
from the bug's body

and that makes the bug
stop squiggling.

Would that make her
stop squiggling?

Help me find something sharp.

Ralph?

Hold her still! All I need to do is
make a little teeny cut!

How much should we let run out?

Just enough to make her quiet.

Then Ralph can play
with her better.

Ralph?

Emily?

Ralph?

No, Emily, I'm in here.
Where have you been?

For heaven's sake,
give me a hand.

That little fiend tied me up.

Peter!

I'm coming, Ann, hold on!

Help me!

Children.

That lady hurt Ralph.

Ralph will be all well very soon.

I brought that wonderful surprise
I promised you.

Let me see! Let me see!
What is it?

Uh, uh, uh.

This is a secret surprise.

Oh, sir. I don't know how you got
yourself into this predicament,

but I suggest that you leave the
premises as quickly as possible.

Where's Ann?

Ann, where's Ann?

If I were you, I'd hurry, sir.

I'm hurryin', I'm hurryin'

What's it gonna do, Bruno?

Well, it's gonna make
a big flash and go bang!

Oh, boy.

Lookee!

Uncle Ned.

Yes, it was quite an
amazing experience,

but for me anyway,

a lot of good came of this.

Being the only survivor,

naturally I inherited the wealth
of the Merryes',

which later turned out
to be quite vast.

More important than that,
though, my wife.

That's our daughter, Jessica.

Mommy, may I go outside now?

All right, Jessica dear, but be sure
and come back into the house

- if it starts raining again.
- Oh, I will, mommy.

And so the Merrye Syndrome
was extinguished forever

with the family that carried it.

My own branch of the family,
being rather distant,

we never suffered from the curse.
