All right, we made it!

It's an adventure, right?

A new start.

A new start on a new life.

Watch the road, dad.

We don't want to start our new life dead.

We'd save money on groceries.

It's great.

It's gonna be great.

Here, read the pamphlet.

Come on.

"Nestled in between Blackwood Forest and

Hodison Bay, bucolic Springville

is timeless."

Blah, blah, blah.

"But the town has a mysterious

side, as well."

Rumors of an ancient curse have

given the town a reputation as a

magnet for the supernatural."

Ooh... scary.

I see the supernatural as fun

and exciting stuff, right?

Oh, yeah.

Fun and exciting.

I mean, when I was a kid, I

would have given my right eye to

live in a town that was haunted.

Like I said, fun and exciting.

As fun and exciting as Millie's Yarn Barn.

I hope I can find my knitting needles.

You know, I could see how it's

just "party, party, party" here

all night long.

Adam, I know it's not easy on

you, but I needed this.

An opportunity for a... A fresh start.

I-I'm sure you're gonna make a

ton of cool, new friends in no time.

Uh-huh.

Yeah, sure.

Dad, watch out!

Oh... You shouldn't be here!

No.

To know, it... it... It's not safe here!

No, not safe!

Not safe!

No!

It's a...

No...

Welcome to Springville.

? Oh, oh, oh, oh ?

? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ?

? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ?

? Oh, oh, oh, oh ?

What do you think?

Looked bigger in the pictures online.

But I guess when we get all our

stuff in here, it'll look...

Even less bigger?

The biggest room in the house...

Except for mine, of course,

because that would be nuts.

Ocean view... mountains.

Whoa.

Our neighbor is Vlad the Impaler.

That's something, isn't it?

But if we peons decide to

revolt, they can pour boiling

oil down on us.

Wouldn't worry about that.

You probably can't buy bulk oil

at Millie's Yarn Barn.

Ha ha.

Oh, that should have gone in the basement.

You know what's even weirder

than having mom gone?

Us pretending she never existed.

You're right. I know.

I know.

Sheriff Quickpaws.

I haven't seen this since...

Let me put that in storage.

No, I'll keep it.

You know, you've been cooped

up in that truck for days.

It's still light out.

Why don't you go dig your bike

out of the trailer and check out the town?

Sh-shouldn't I help?

Go on.

Hey, over here!

Over here!

I'm open, I'm open.

Go for it! Go for it! Go for it!

Nice one, yeah!

Here, all right.

Here we go.

Hey, you need another player?

Sure. Jump in.

Here you go.

Take the shot! Take the shot!

Nice. Nice. Great job.

All right, here we go, here we go.

Gotta go.

See you around!

Come on, guys!

Let's get outta here!

Move it! We're late!

Come on! Let's go!

Move it. Come on.

Looks like somebody's new in town.

She's a long way away now.

What?

Who?

That girl you left behind.

Don't be embarrassed.

You're a good-looking guy.

You've probably got a

good-looking girlfriend from

wherever you're from.

How do you know I came from somewhere?

It's a small town.

And you didn't run away when the

lights turned on, so... Why would I?

Everyone knows, dark or not,

7:00, it's time to go home.

Boy, is he new.

Odds are, he won't last 24 hours.

Mm, I don't know.

Long legs, dreamy hair, athletic...

20 bucks says he lasts a day.

Hmm, well, I'm basing his

imminent demise on a carefully

calculated algorithm, so you're on.

Gotta go.

Wait, did you say "dreamy hair"?

Hey! Wait!

We haven't even scratched the

surface on me yet.

I'm more intense than she was, right?

Than who was?

The girl you left behind.

Pay attention!

You have to be on your toes to

survive in Spooksville!

Spooksville?

You call it "Springville"

'cause you just got here, but...

Those who know... Call it "Spooksville."

"Why?" you may ask.

This town is cursed.

You gotta be kidding me.

You'll know when I'm kidding.

I have a highly developed sense of humor.

Well, technically, the

witch's curse is only one of the

many possible theories.

Witch's curse?

That's why this town shuts down at night?

Th-that supernatural garbage I

read in the brochure?

Don't be judgmental.

Just because something's garbage

doesn't mean it isn't true.

Her name is Madeline Templeton.

Her evil still haunts this town.

Well, that's great.

But I think I ought to be

heading back to planet Earth now.

It's been something.

No, hey!

Notebook.

This town is full of dark and

dangerous things, and you may

need our help... Or you might just...

...call me for whatever reason.

Uh, thanks.

S-see you around.

Oh, call from a land-line.

Reception is like everything

else here... a complete and

total nightmare.

Yes?

Uh, Sally told me to come here.

Well... It's late, but...

I guess friends at odd hours

beats no friends at all, right?

You better come in.

Watch? Honey?

Here's another friend who's just

stopped by in the middle of the

night, which is fine, by the way.

Thanks, mom.

You came.

Uh... why are you "Watch"?

Observant much?

Well... It's not the weirdest thing

I've seen all night.

I knew you'd call.

So that's where my mixer went.

You won't mind if I just take that?

Oh, yeah, sure, mom.

Go ahead.

Throw a wrench in my elaborate

and fragile experiment that I've

been working on for two years.

Nice to meet you, Adam.

I'll make smoothies.

So, one day in Spooksville,

and you're already being

targeted by the forces of darkness.

Um, you said on the phone that

some kind of creature was...

Trying to take something of yours.

I don't suppose you brought the item?

You know, it was late.

It was probably a dream or hallucination.

I was probably half asleep.

It's okay.

Everybody has trouble absorbing

their first Spooksville experience.

It's nothing to be embarrassed about.

Now...

Okay, maybe you should be a

little embarrassed.

Uh, Adam, if you don't mind,

I would like to do a

full-spectral analysis on, um... Teddy.

"Sheriff Quickpaws,"

actually.

Sheriff Quickpaws.

Yep.

Watch is a bottomless cup of

scientific curiosity.

And you?

It's a small town.

I'm fearless and easily bored.

What am I supposed to do, cow-tipping?

Whoa, hello.

This bear's radiating more

Eldritch energy than I've ever detected.

"Eldritch energy"?

Yep, that's Watch's fancy

word for "witchcraft."

Watch is always the smartest

guy in the room.

That's not saying much.

And the term "witchcraft" is

merely an unknown energy that

manifests itself in localized phenomena.

Which we painstakingly chart... Here.

What exactly do you chart?

Ghosts, creatures that

couldn't possibly exist, gravity

working backwards... the usual.

I'm impressed.

So much Eldritch energy that it

overloaded my system.

That is some bear.

Where'd you get it?

My mother gave it to me.

I've had it forever.

Can't seem to... Pinpoint the source of the

anomaly.

I think I can.

Scalpel.

This is your bear.

You want to do the honors?

Um... It's all right.

Too invested.

Forceps.

Seriously?

There you go.

Awesome sauce.

This is it!

It's the Eldritch mother lode.

In my bear.

This calls for a drink.

Mom!

Smoothies!

So that radioactive rock was

giving me nightmares or delusions.

There never was any... creature.

Sure, if it comforts you to believe that.

But really, all that Eldritch

energy, it summoned the creature

to your room.

I hate to break it to you,

Adam, but it's all real...

Creatures, witches... Oh! That reminds me.

I saw tall, dark, and creepy in

a limousine at the train station earlier.

You know what that means.

The witch is back in town?

Are you saying the witch that

died centuries ago just came

back to town on a train?

No.

That would be ridiculous.

Her descendent,

Ann Templeton, is back from her

hoity-toity boarding school.

But she's a witch, too, and I'm

determined to expose her as the

vile sorceress she is.

Right.

A real witch.

All Templeton women are witches.

It's common knowledge.

Witches are real. Get over it.

Yeah.

You know what?

I'm not getting over it.

I'm getting out.

No offense, but you guys are crazy.

Hey, Adam.

You forgot sheriff Quickpaws.

I'm not quite finished with my

analysis on the rock.

Uh... could I keep it overnight?

I'll be sure to get it back to

you tomorrow.

Yeah. Fine.

Oh, by the way, it's after

midnight... the absolute worst

time for you to go out.

You know, maybe Watch's mom

could drive you home or something.

Why?

Because of the witches?

You know what?

I'll take my chances.

Hm.

Welcome back to the land of the living.

I must be dreaming.

Well, if you are, I wish

you'd pick a better location.

Something tropical?

Anything's better than Springville.

Where am I?

Shadowmire.

I know. The house has a name.

I'm Ann, by the way.

Adam.

How did I get here?

You... just sit still.

You got a nasty bump.

You rode your bike into the

street right in front of our car.

My chauffeur, Moorpark, brought

you back here.

Not the emergency room?

It's far, and believe me, you

don't want to go to Springville general.

You'd be better off seeing a witch doctor.

I'll get Moorpark to give you

something for your headache.

Stay right here.

Don't move a muscle.

That's an order.

You know the

importance of retrieving that item.

It is the reason I summoned you home.

And yet you do not act.

I believe I have a better

understanding than you of how

to deal with a teenage boy.

I will act as I see fit.

Do not disappoint me.

There you are!

I thought I told you to stay put!

You really should watch where

you're riding... Young man.

Thanks.

I'll take it later.

What are you doing out here?

I saw this, and... I'm interested in art.

She could be my twin, don't you think?

Both brunette... both pretty.

Just for that, you don't have to

pay for the dent on the car.

She was my great-great-great...

Something... grandmother.

Madeline Templeton.

Madeline Templeton.

The town... The town witch?

It's okay.

In those days, that's what they

called powerful women who dared

to think for themselves.

And they killed her for it.

Would you like to see the rest

of the house?

Yup.

That's his bike, all right.

What do we do now?

We wait... And we watch... For now.

This place is amazing.

It's like a dream.

You should come back.

We'll hang.

What?

It's just...

You'll never believe me, but...

I met this girl who... thought

you were a witch.

Sally Wilcox?

You should stay away from Sally, Adam.

She's a small girl... from a

small town with a small mind.

And her little friend with the...

Watch.

They're not like us, Adam.

Have you ever felt that

somewhere deep within you were

forces of great energy?

That you were born to do

something special in this life?

I don't know.

I was, uh... thinking about going

out for football.

Uh... man, my dad's gonna kill me.

I'll have Moorpark drive you.

No, it's all right, I just

live down the hill.

Aren't you forgetting something?

Never leave home without him.

Oh, great.

Walking it is.

Who is it?

Who's there?

? Oh, oh, oh, oh ?

? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh ?

? Hey ?

? Hey ?

? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ?
