(theme music playing)
2
00:00:19,753 --> 00:00:24,523
NARRATOR:
Man lives in the sunlit world
3
00:00:24,625 --> 00:00:29,027
of what he believes to be reality.
4
00:00:30,597 --> 00:00:33,999
But... there is,
5
00:00:34,034 --> 00:00:38,536
unseen by most, an underworld.
6
00:00:38,571 --> 00:00:42,206
A place that is just as real
7
00:00:42,242 --> 00:00:46,310
but not as brightly lit.
8
00:00:46,346 --> 00:00:49,047
A dark side.
9
00:01:01,494 --> 00:01:04,462
("Deck the Halls" playing)
10
00:01:35,228 --> 00:01:38,629
� �
11
00:01:46,072 --> 00:01:48,773
Delicious.
12
00:01:48,808 --> 00:01:50,775
Thank you.
13
00:01:53,513 --> 00:01:57,349
Mom, can I watch Gumby's Christmas Carol tonight?
14
00:01:57,384 --> 00:01:58,783
Not tonight, Stefa.
15
00:01:58,819 --> 00:02:00,385
But it's on
at 8:00,
16
00:02:00,420 --> 00:02:03,121
and there's nothing
else to do.
17
00:02:03,156 --> 00:02:06,091
Dad, please?
18
00:02:06,126 --> 00:02:08,560
Tonight, we're just going
to make do with each other.
19
00:02:08,595 --> 00:02:10,395
This is one family
that's going to have
20
00:02:10,430 --> 00:02:11,329
an old-fashioned Christmas Eve.
21
00:02:11,364 --> 00:02:12,997
And wait for some
old fat man
22
00:02:13,033 --> 00:02:14,566
to get stuck in
the chimney, right?
23
00:02:14,601 --> 00:02:17,269
MOTHER:
Everyone help
to clear, please.
24
00:02:17,304 --> 00:02:20,272
I know there's no such
thing as Santa Claus.
25
00:02:20,307 --> 00:02:23,374
That's a wicked thing
to say at anytime,
26
00:02:23,409 --> 00:02:26,611
but it's particularly wicked
to say on Christmas Eve.
27
00:02:26,646 --> 00:02:28,980
"'Twas the night
before Christmas
28
00:02:29,015 --> 00:02:30,382
"and all through
the house...
29
00:02:30,417 --> 00:02:32,884
Dad locked up the liquor
'cause Santa's a souse."
30
00:02:32,886 --> 00:02:34,418
STEFA:
What's a souse?
31
00:02:34,454 --> 00:02:37,022
MOTHER:
You know what that old
fat man does to children
32
00:02:37,057 --> 00:02:38,189
who says he
doesn't exist
33
00:02:38,224 --> 00:02:39,224
on Christmas Eve?
34
00:02:39,259 --> 00:02:40,292
What?
35
00:02:40,327 --> 00:02:44,061
Flips a switch
with your name on it,
36
00:02:44,063 --> 00:02:47,799
and every present you get--
no matter who gave it to you--
37
00:02:47,834 --> 00:02:49,767
that present breaks
within a month.
38
00:02:52,706 --> 00:02:53,938
(hissing)
39
00:03:00,447 --> 00:03:02,046
What's that smell?
40
00:03:14,093 --> 00:03:15,526
Did Santa Claus do that
41
00:03:15,562 --> 00:03:17,628
because I said
he wasn't real?
42
00:03:17,664 --> 00:03:19,898
It was probably
just a warning.
43
00:03:19,933 --> 00:03:22,066
Hey, you might as
well finish the job.
44
00:03:23,837 --> 00:03:25,270
(chuckles)
45
00:03:25,305 --> 00:03:26,771
Oh, great!
46
00:03:26,807 --> 00:03:28,073
It was your idea.
47
00:03:28,108 --> 00:03:32,176
If Jimbo gets to open one,
I get to open one.
48
00:03:32,211 --> 00:03:34,278
Just one.
49
00:03:34,313 --> 00:03:36,781
I choose.
50
00:03:36,816 --> 00:03:39,083
Let's see...
51
00:03:39,119 --> 00:03:42,720
I choose... this one.
52
00:03:52,832 --> 00:03:56,167
How did you know?
53
00:03:56,202 --> 00:03:58,436
How did I know?
54
00:03:58,471 --> 00:04:00,739
Darling, you wrote out a list
of everything you wanted
55
00:04:00,774 --> 00:04:03,407
and you taped it
to the refrigerator.
56
00:04:03,409 --> 00:04:06,778
� Good King Wenceslas
looked out �
57
00:04:06,813 --> 00:04:09,046
� On the feast of Stephen �
58
00:04:09,082 --> 00:04:11,816
� When the snow lay
round about �
59
00:04:11,851 --> 00:04:14,652
� Deep and crisp and even �
60
00:04:14,687 --> 00:04:17,488
� Brightly shone the moon
that night �
61
00:04:17,523 --> 00:04:20,625
� Though the frost was cruel �
62
00:04:20,660 --> 00:04:24,628
� When a poor man
came in sight �
63
00:04:24,664 --> 00:04:27,399
� Gathering winter fuel... �
64
00:04:27,434 --> 00:04:30,869
What's the capital
of North Dakota?
65
00:04:30,904 --> 00:04:32,570
Bismarck.
66
00:04:32,605 --> 00:04:34,305
How do you know that?
67
00:04:34,341 --> 00:04:35,840
FATHER:
She knows it's Bismarck
68
00:04:35,875 --> 00:04:37,876
because it was named
for her Great-Uncle Barney.
69
00:04:37,911 --> 00:04:39,610
Barney Bismarck.
70
00:04:39,646 --> 00:04:41,146
His nickname was Barracuda.
71
00:04:41,181 --> 00:04:42,614
Barney "the Barracuda" Bismarck.
72
00:04:42,649 --> 00:04:45,450
STEFA:
You're making
that up.
73
00:04:45,485 --> 00:04:46,684
I'm bored.
74
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,352
How can
you be bored?
75
00:04:48,388 --> 00:04:50,622
You haven't even tried
all your crayons yet.
76
00:04:50,657 --> 00:04:52,423
I'm bored, too.
77
00:04:52,458 --> 00:04:54,158
Tell us a story.
78
00:04:54,193 --> 00:04:55,927
We don't know any stories.
79
00:04:55,962 --> 00:04:58,262
JIMBO:
You make up stories
all the time.
80
00:04:58,298 --> 00:05:00,264
Are you saying your parents
are liars?
81
00:05:01,768 --> 00:05:03,268
No.
82
00:05:03,303 --> 00:05:05,036
We just want a story.
83
00:05:05,071 --> 00:05:07,639
If we can't watch TV.
84
00:05:07,674 --> 00:05:10,075
All right,
Christmas Eve story.
85
00:05:10,110 --> 00:05:12,310
No, we know
all those stories.
86
00:05:12,345 --> 00:05:14,846
"Rudolph the Red-Nosed
Reindeer."
87
00:05:14,881 --> 00:05:16,180
"The Little Drummer Boy."
88
00:05:16,216 --> 00:05:18,015
Tell us a good story.
89
00:05:18,018 --> 00:05:20,518
Maybe I should tell
them about the...
90
00:05:20,553 --> 00:05:22,420
(whispering)
91
00:05:24,157 --> 00:05:26,424
Not that one.
It's too scary.
92
00:05:26,459 --> 00:05:29,627
We want a scary story.
93
00:05:31,131 --> 00:05:33,465
It might even be dangerous.
94
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:34,732
JIMBO:
Dangerous?
95
00:05:34,767 --> 00:05:36,033
You're right.
96
00:05:37,337 --> 00:05:39,304
Tell us that story.
97
00:05:39,306 --> 00:05:40,872
Please!
98
00:05:40,907 --> 00:05:43,141
Jimbo, open your atlas
99
00:05:43,176 --> 00:05:47,278
and find me
the North Pole.
100
00:05:47,313 --> 00:05:49,113
No. No Santa
Claus story.
101
00:05:49,149 --> 00:05:51,716
No. No Santa Claus
story.
102
00:05:51,751 --> 00:05:54,319
In fact, I'm going to tell you
about the most fearsome,
103
00:05:54,354 --> 00:05:59,157
dangerous and appalling creature
in the world.
104
00:05:59,192 --> 00:06:01,326
And it's called...
105
00:06:03,764 --> 00:06:05,663
The what?
106
00:06:05,698 --> 00:06:07,465
What's it called?
107
00:06:15,008 --> 00:06:16,574
"The..."
108
00:06:16,609 --> 00:06:17,842
"Grither"?
109
00:06:17,877 --> 00:06:19,577
Grither?
110
00:06:19,612 --> 00:06:22,046
Now you've done it.
111
00:06:22,081 --> 00:06:24,248
Done what?
112
00:06:24,283 --> 00:06:26,184
FATHER:
The most awful
thing in the world.
113
00:06:26,219 --> 00:06:28,653
You said his name out loud.
114
00:07:02,355 --> 00:07:04,188
(wind whistling)
115
00:07:04,224 --> 00:07:06,224
FATHER:
Well, we all know
that Santa Claus
116
00:07:06,259 --> 00:07:09,059
has his workshop
at the North Pole.
117
00:07:09,095 --> 00:07:12,062
And in that workshop,
there are lots of toys
118
00:07:12,098 --> 00:07:14,499
and elves and the smell
of Mrs. Claus' cooking.
119
00:07:14,534 --> 00:07:17,035
Mrs. Claus' specialty
is lasagna.
120
00:07:17,070 --> 00:07:19,970
She got the recipe
from Eleanor Roosevelt.
121
00:07:19,972 --> 00:07:21,339
Mom!
122
00:07:21,374 --> 00:07:23,741
I won't interrupt,
I promise.
123
00:07:23,777 --> 00:07:25,309
Now Santa's
workshop is located
124
00:07:25,311 --> 00:07:29,747
on the protected side
of a mountain at the North Pole.
125
00:07:29,782 --> 00:07:32,450
And it's the warmest,
friendliest place there is,
126
00:07:32,485 --> 00:07:35,686
in a place that's not known
to be warm or friendly.
127
00:07:35,722 --> 00:07:37,655
Now, here is Santa's workshop.
128
00:07:37,690 --> 00:07:39,524
And on the other side
of the mountain
129
00:07:39,559 --> 00:07:41,159
there is a cave.
130
00:07:41,194 --> 00:07:44,962
And it's the coldest,
wettest place there is on Earth.
131
00:07:44,964 --> 00:07:48,500
And inside that cave
is where the, uh...
132
00:07:48,535 --> 00:07:49,934
Grither!
133
00:07:49,970 --> 00:07:51,469
...makes his home.
134
00:07:51,504 --> 00:07:53,671
This isn't scary.
135
00:07:53,706 --> 00:07:56,641
MOTHER:
A little patience,
young lady.
136
00:07:56,676 --> 00:07:57,742
Now the, uh...
137
00:07:57,777 --> 00:07:59,010
Grither.
138
00:07:59,045 --> 00:08:01,813
...lives in a wreck
of a ship
139
00:08:01,848 --> 00:08:03,848
that somehow got squeezed
inside the cave.
140
00:08:03,883 --> 00:08:06,884
Now, he doesn't like
to be cold,
141
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,552
and he doesn't like
to be wet,
142
00:08:08,587 --> 00:08:11,522
but the thing he doesn't like
most of all
143
00:08:11,557 --> 00:08:14,125
is to hear himself talked about.
144
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,194
JIMBO:
Why?
145
00:08:16,229 --> 00:08:17,995
Because he's the only one
in the world,
146
00:08:18,030 --> 00:08:19,830
and he thinks
that he's very special.
147
00:08:19,832 --> 00:08:21,398
Which, of course, he is.
148
00:08:22,835 --> 00:08:26,704
But he can't hear us
when we talk about him,
149
00:08:26,739 --> 00:08:28,406
can he?
150
00:08:28,441 --> 00:08:31,142
He has very, very good ears.
151
00:08:31,177 --> 00:08:36,580
And they get a little bigger
every time his name is spoken
152
00:08:36,615 --> 00:08:37,882
anywhere on Earth.
153
00:08:37,884 --> 00:08:41,052
(laughing)
154
00:08:41,087 --> 00:08:43,554
Grither. Grither.
155
00:08:43,589 --> 00:08:45,789
His ears are now
twice as big
156
00:08:45,825 --> 00:08:47,225
as they were
five minutes ago.
157
00:08:47,227 --> 00:08:50,127
And now he knows where we are.
158
00:08:50,129 --> 00:08:52,764
(electrical crackling)
159
00:08:52,799 --> 00:08:56,300
See that? Hmm?
160
00:08:56,335 --> 00:08:58,803
Don't tell this story.
161
00:08:58,838 --> 00:09:00,605
Tell another story.
162
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,239
MOTHER:
Too late now.
163
00:09:02,241 --> 00:09:06,377
He's already heard you and Jimbo
say his name half a dozen times.
164
00:09:06,412 --> 00:09:10,047
He's probably on his way to
our house this very minute.
165
00:09:10,083 --> 00:09:11,382
No!
166
00:09:11,417 --> 00:09:13,751
FATHER:
But he's only
just started.
167
00:09:13,753 --> 00:09:16,954
And it'll take him
a while to get here.
168
00:09:16,990 --> 00:09:19,757
And if I'm very careful,
169
00:09:19,793 --> 00:09:22,693
he won't be able to reach
our house before I've finished.
170
00:09:22,728 --> 00:09:24,862
JIMBO:
And if we stop
saying his name--
171
00:09:24,897 --> 00:09:26,464
Grither, Grither,
172
00:09:26,499 --> 00:09:29,300
Grither--
173
00:09:29,335 --> 00:09:32,736
he'll get lost and he'll have
to go home to the North Pole.
174
00:09:32,739 --> 00:09:34,905
I want another story.
175
00:09:36,742 --> 00:09:40,978
Jimbo, do you know why
this creature is called the...
176
00:09:40,980 --> 00:09:42,914
...what he's called?
177
00:09:42,949 --> 00:09:44,515
Why?
178
00:09:44,550 --> 00:09:49,219
Because he has fists
as big as basketballs,
179
00:09:49,255 --> 00:09:52,490
and arms as long
as boa constrictors.
180
00:09:52,525 --> 00:09:55,292
And whenever he finally
finds those people
181
00:09:55,327 --> 00:09:57,462
who have been speaking
his name in vain,
182
00:09:57,497 --> 00:09:59,797
why he opens
up his fists
183
00:09:59,832 --> 00:10:03,434
and he reaches out his arms
and he grithers them in!
184
00:10:03,436 --> 00:10:05,803
He grithers them in!
(whimpering)
185
00:10:05,805 --> 00:10:09,641
Stop! Now you said
his name, too!
186
00:10:09,676 --> 00:10:12,076
(rattling)
Is that him?!
Is that him?!
187
00:10:14,380 --> 00:10:16,380
Couldn't be the Grither.
188
00:10:16,416 --> 00:10:17,782
Not yet anyway.
189
00:10:17,817 --> 00:10:19,950
It was just
the wind.
190
00:10:19,986 --> 00:10:22,219
The Grither's just Bigfoot,
that's all.
191
00:10:22,254 --> 00:10:24,321
No.
192
00:10:24,323 --> 00:10:25,756
He's not Bigfoot.
193
00:10:25,791 --> 00:10:28,126
And he's not the
Abominable Snowman either.
194
00:10:28,128 --> 00:10:30,728
The only people who have
ever seen the Grither
195
00:10:30,764 --> 00:10:33,163
are the people the Grither
has eaten up.
196
00:10:33,165 --> 00:10:35,933
Then how do you know
what he looks like?
197
00:10:35,968 --> 00:10:38,336
Because
I heard him.
198
00:10:38,338 --> 00:10:40,638
And he sings a song
about himself.
199
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,406
You didn't hear him.
200
00:10:42,441 --> 00:10:44,776
MOTHER:
That's right.
201
00:10:44,811 --> 00:10:47,411
Your father didn't
hear the Grither.
202
00:10:47,447 --> 00:10:50,748
Uncle Michael heard the
Grither singing his song.
203
00:10:50,783 --> 00:10:52,650
It's a song he
couldn't forget.
204
00:10:52,685 --> 00:10:54,251
So he taught it to me,
205
00:10:54,286 --> 00:10:55,720
and I taught it
to your father.
206
00:10:55,755 --> 00:10:57,255
Can you sing it?
207
00:10:57,257 --> 00:10:58,589
(clearing throat)
208
00:10:58,624 --> 00:11:00,724
Um, I think so.
209
00:11:13,540 --> 00:11:15,506
(begins playing
"O Come All Ye Faithful")
210
00:11:21,648 --> 00:11:22,613
(clears throat)
211
00:11:22,649 --> 00:11:26,483
� Oh, I am the Grither �
212
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:31,222
� You cannot escape me �
213
00:11:31,257 --> 00:11:36,060
� For pleading
is useless �
214
00:11:36,062 --> 00:11:41,199
� And so are your prayers �
215
00:11:41,234 --> 00:11:46,103
BOTH:
� The Grither is greedy �
216
00:11:46,105 --> 00:11:51,008
� For only one thing �
217
00:11:51,043 --> 00:11:55,579
� To keep you from taking �
218
00:11:55,614 --> 00:12:00,117
� To keep you
from taking �
219
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:06,056
� To keep you from taking �
220
00:12:06,092 --> 00:12:13,096
� His name in vain. �
221
00:12:13,132 --> 00:12:15,299
(piano stops)
222
00:12:15,301 --> 00:12:16,867
You made that up.
223
00:12:16,903 --> 00:12:18,902
It didn't even rhyme.
224
00:12:18,904 --> 00:12:21,104
Monster songs
never rhyme.
225
00:12:21,140 --> 00:12:23,974
There are other verses and
they tell what he looks like.
226
00:12:24,009 --> 00:12:26,043
He's tall as a poplar.
227
00:12:26,078 --> 00:12:30,013
But he can bend all the way over
and touch the ground.
228
00:12:30,049 --> 00:12:31,715
He looks like a road map.
229
00:12:31,751 --> 00:12:34,351
His skin is
very, very white.
230
00:12:34,386 --> 00:12:38,289
And all the blue and
red veins show through.
231
00:12:38,324 --> 00:12:41,124
The-the blue is for fear.
232
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,627
And the red is for rage.
233
00:12:43,663 --> 00:12:45,229
(wings flapping)
234
00:12:45,264 --> 00:12:46,597
(bird chirping)
235
00:12:46,632 --> 00:12:48,899
That's the sound
of his wings.
236
00:12:51,004 --> 00:12:52,636
He can fly?!
237
00:12:52,638 --> 00:12:57,208
Well, you remember when Dad
said that his ears grow bigger
238
00:12:57,243 --> 00:12:59,010
whenever we
mentioned his name?
239
00:12:59,045 --> 00:13:00,410
Yes.
240
00:13:00,446 --> 00:13:01,712
MOTHER:
Well, by now,
241
00:13:01,714 --> 00:13:05,816
his ears are so big that
he can use them as wings.
242
00:13:05,852 --> 00:13:08,351
Which means he'll be
here all the faster.
243
00:13:08,353 --> 00:13:10,053
Where is he now?
244
00:13:10,089 --> 00:13:11,421
FATHER:
Bangor, Maine.
245
00:13:11,457 --> 00:13:14,191
He's headed south, and
he's taking shortcuts.
246
00:13:14,227 --> 00:13:16,661
Stop! Don't tell any more!
247
00:13:16,663 --> 00:13:19,330
Oh, no, it's-it's cheating
not to finish the story.
248
00:13:19,365 --> 00:13:22,366
And you have to finish it
before the Grither arrives
249
00:13:22,402 --> 00:13:23,534
or-or else...
250
00:13:23,569 --> 00:13:25,669
Or else what?
251
00:13:25,671 --> 00:13:29,506
Or else he
comes anyway.
252
00:13:29,508 --> 00:13:32,143
Hurry! Finish
the story!
253
00:13:32,145 --> 00:13:35,079
Oh, I suppose we better
if we want to be alive
254
00:13:35,114 --> 00:13:36,847
to open our presents
in the morning.
255
00:13:36,883 --> 00:13:40,151
Why, he's probably by
New Hampshire by now.
256
00:13:40,186 --> 00:13:42,787
I suppose, uh,
you're wondering where...
257
00:13:42,822 --> 00:13:46,190
(phone ringing)
258
00:13:46,225 --> 00:13:48,025
Don't stop!
259
00:13:48,027 --> 00:13:49,960
(phone ringing)
260
00:13:55,301 --> 00:13:56,667
Would you get that?
261
00:13:56,702 --> 00:14:00,004
I want to finish that yellow
patch in my tapestry, hmm.
262
00:14:00,006 --> 00:14:02,206
BOTH:
No!
263
00:14:06,112 --> 00:14:07,844
STEFA:
You finish!
264
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,113
Oh, I can't.
265
00:14:09,148 --> 00:14:13,383
The person who starts the story
has to finish it.
266
00:14:26,465 --> 00:14:29,467
(man talking indistinctly
over phone)
267
00:14:29,502 --> 00:14:32,436
No, we're all here.
268
00:14:42,949 --> 00:14:44,882
(piano playing
"Jingle Bells" slowly)
269
00:14:52,958 --> 00:14:54,958
(flat note, piano stops)
270
00:14:54,994 --> 00:14:56,227
F sharp.
271
00:14:56,229 --> 00:14:58,061
(continues playing)
272
00:15:02,334 --> 00:15:04,434
Where is he now?
273
00:15:04,436 --> 00:15:05,769
Still on the telephone.
274
00:15:05,772 --> 00:15:08,305
Not Dad.
275
00:15:08,341 --> 00:15:10,808
The Grither-- where is he now?
276
00:15:10,843 --> 00:15:12,642
New York City.
277
00:15:12,678 --> 00:15:14,878
Philadelphia,
if the wind's with him.
278
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,681
Dad!
279
00:15:16,716 --> 00:15:18,082
Here I am.
280
00:15:18,117 --> 00:15:19,783
I wasn't gone too long, was I?
281
00:15:19,818 --> 00:15:23,120
Finish telling the story!
282
00:15:23,155 --> 00:15:24,255
MOTHER:
Who was that?
283
00:15:24,290 --> 00:15:25,189
FATHER:
I don't know.
284
00:15:25,224 --> 00:15:26,657
He knows who we are.
285
00:15:26,726 --> 00:15:28,559
He was wondering if we're all
going to be home tonight,
286
00:15:28,594 --> 00:15:29,826
and I said of course we were.
287
00:15:29,828 --> 00:15:32,129
Was it the Grither?
288
00:15:32,131 --> 00:15:33,631
I don't know.
289
00:15:33,666 --> 00:15:35,031
I never thought of that.
290
00:15:35,033 --> 00:15:37,000
You were on the phone
a long time.
291
00:15:37,002 --> 00:15:39,369
Well, he kept asking questions.
292
00:15:39,405 --> 00:15:41,138
But he never said who he was.
293
00:15:41,140 --> 00:15:42,606
(clattering)
294
00:15:42,642 --> 00:15:44,508
Washington D.C.
295
00:15:44,510 --> 00:15:46,977
He's over our nation's
capital by now.
296
00:15:47,013 --> 00:15:49,413
Please finish
telling the story!
297
00:15:49,415 --> 00:15:54,217
Well, the Grither was born
on a sailing ship
298
00:15:54,253 --> 00:15:56,754
that got lost in the Arctic Sea.
299
00:15:56,756 --> 00:16:00,224
They drifted about for weeks
and never saw anything
300
00:16:00,226 --> 00:16:02,826
but glaciers
and icebergs.
301
00:16:02,828 --> 00:16:05,496
Some of the passengers
on board drowned,
302
00:16:05,531 --> 00:16:07,531
some froze to death,
some starved
303
00:16:07,567 --> 00:16:09,767
and some committed suicide.
304
00:16:09,802 --> 00:16:13,371
And the Grither was born
out of the fear and rage
305
00:16:13,406 --> 00:16:15,339
of all those people.
306
00:16:15,341 --> 00:16:17,607
But why does he
kill people?
307
00:16:17,609 --> 00:16:20,277
Nobody knows.
308
00:16:20,279 --> 00:16:21,912
Is that all?
309
00:16:21,914 --> 00:16:24,581
Richmond, Virginia.
310
00:16:24,617 --> 00:16:26,550
Now he's heading west.
311
00:16:26,585 --> 00:16:27,884
Is that all?
312
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,220
Is that the end of the story?
313
00:16:30,222 --> 00:16:32,857
No, no, my dear, not quite all.
314
00:16:32,892 --> 00:16:35,926
You see, they say
that the only way
315
00:16:35,962 --> 00:16:37,661
this creature
can be killed is...
316
00:16:37,696 --> 00:16:38,596
(knocking)
317
00:16:38,631 --> 00:16:40,765
No, don't answer it!
318
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:45,369
MAN:
� Oh, I am the Grither �
319
00:16:45,371 --> 00:16:48,939
� You cannot escape me �
320
00:16:48,974 --> 00:16:50,540
Get him away!
321
00:16:50,542 --> 00:16:53,577
Away!
� For pleading is useless �
322
00:16:53,579 --> 00:16:54,578
Go away!
Get him away!
323
00:16:54,580 --> 00:16:57,481
� And so are your prayers �
324
00:17:00,586 --> 00:17:02,419
(shivering growl)
325
00:17:02,421 --> 00:17:03,921
Get him away!
326
00:17:03,923 --> 00:17:05,689
Get him away!
327
00:17:05,724 --> 00:17:08,759
Oh, Stefa, it's not the Grither.
328
00:17:08,761 --> 00:17:11,628
It's Uncle Michael.
329
00:17:11,664 --> 00:17:14,397
Hey, I didn't scare you,
did I, big fella?
330
00:17:16,536 --> 00:17:18,168
(chuckles)
331
00:17:18,203 --> 00:17:19,737
(chuckles)
332
00:17:20,907 --> 00:17:23,239
FATHER:
It was Uncle Michael
on the telephone.
333
00:17:23,275 --> 00:17:25,375
I taught him the song.
334
00:17:25,410 --> 00:17:27,911
But I thought Uncle Michael
taught you the song
335
00:17:27,947 --> 00:17:30,080
and you taught it to Dad.
336
00:17:30,082 --> 00:17:31,915
I think we adults ought
337
00:17:31,950 --> 00:17:34,151
to go into the kitchen
for a little while.
338
00:17:34,186 --> 00:17:36,153
Good idea.
339
00:17:36,188 --> 00:17:38,755
There's something going on here
I-I don't quite understand.
340
00:17:38,790 --> 00:17:39,923
(chuckles)
341
00:17:39,958 --> 00:17:41,425
STEFA:
Where is the Grither?
342
00:17:41,427 --> 00:17:43,260
The real Grither.
343
00:17:43,295 --> 00:17:44,962
You didn't finish
the story,
344
00:17:44,997 --> 00:17:46,763
so he's still
on his way.
345
00:17:46,798 --> 00:17:48,132
You started this.
346
00:17:48,167 --> 00:17:49,900
You finish it.
347
00:17:55,041 --> 00:17:58,776
I hope neither one of you
really believes in the Grither.
348
00:17:58,778 --> 00:18:01,478
You don't, do you?
349
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,715
Because the Grither is
no more real than Santa Claus.
350
00:18:06,619 --> 00:18:09,486
You don't believe
in Santa Claus, do you?
351
00:18:09,488 --> 00:18:10,587
No.
352
00:18:10,623 --> 00:18:13,323
Stefa?
353
00:18:13,325 --> 00:18:15,893
Good.
354
00:18:15,928 --> 00:18:20,330
Santa Claus is no more real
than the Grither is.
355
00:18:20,366 --> 00:18:22,666
Santa Claus is just
a nice story,
356
00:18:22,702 --> 00:18:26,003
(rips paper)
and the Grither is just
a nasty story.
357
00:18:26,038 --> 00:18:28,639
I believed in the tooth fairy
until I was 15 years old.
358
00:18:28,674 --> 00:18:29,673
Oh, shh!
(chuckles)
359
00:18:29,709 --> 00:18:33,510
No one is as tall as a poplar.
360
00:18:33,545 --> 00:18:37,681
No one has fists
as big as basketballs.
361
00:18:37,716 --> 00:18:40,484
And no one lives
at the North Pole.
362
00:18:40,519 --> 00:18:43,119
Not Santa Claus,
not the Grither.
363
00:18:43,155 --> 00:18:45,422
Because neither one is real.
364
00:18:45,424 --> 00:18:49,126
And neither one is coming
to this house tonight.
365
00:18:52,031 --> 00:18:55,199
But you didn't finish
the story!
366
00:18:55,234 --> 00:18:57,735
Stefa.
367
00:18:57,770 --> 00:18:59,870
(wind whistling)
368
00:19:14,253 --> 00:19:16,553
He's here!
He's here!
369
00:19:17,590 --> 00:19:18,989
(bangs piano keys)
370
00:19:23,462 --> 00:19:26,363
(phone ringing)
371
00:19:37,210 --> 00:19:40,110
(phone stops)
372
00:19:51,557 --> 00:19:54,691
(wind stops)
373
00:19:59,799 --> 00:20:01,098
Jimbo.
374
00:20:02,301 --> 00:20:03,634
Stefa.
375
00:20:03,669 --> 00:20:05,769
It was the Grither!
376
00:20:05,804 --> 00:20:08,105
Oh, honey, of course not.
377
00:20:08,140 --> 00:20:09,372
It was the wind.
378
00:20:11,110 --> 00:20:13,777
(loud roaring)
379
00:20:13,779 --> 00:20:15,946
(screaming)
380
00:20:16,849 --> 00:20:17,848
(screaming)
381
00:20:23,289 --> 00:20:24,989
(groans)
382
00:20:25,024 --> 00:20:26,323
(screaming continues)
383
00:20:27,493 --> 00:20:29,092
(bones crunch)
384
00:20:33,765 --> 00:20:34,865
(bones crunch)
385
00:20:38,537 --> 00:20:40,037
Oh, my God in heaven.
386
00:20:40,072 --> 00:20:41,304
What was that?
387
00:20:41,340 --> 00:20:42,305
It was the...
388
00:20:42,307 --> 00:20:43,874
No, don't say
his name!
389
00:20:45,978 --> 00:20:49,512
It wasn't Santa Claus.
390
00:20:49,514 --> 00:20:52,482
("Silent Night" playing softly)
391
00:21:19,712 --> 00:21:23,547
NARRATOR:
The dark side is always there.
392
00:21:23,582 --> 00:21:26,082
Waiting for us to enter.
393
00:21:26,118 --> 00:21:29,319
Waiting to enter us.
394
00:21:29,355 --> 00:21:35,526
Until next time, try to enjoy the daylight.
