The ocean.

We've seen it. Let's go.

No way!

Neil, it's getting dark.

We should go back.

What's the big deal?

I don't know.

It's just, something's... weird.

You're weird.

Neil.

Come back here!

Mom said you have to do what I say!

Neil!

Neil?

Aah!

Oh!

You are going to be so sorry you did that.

Gotcha!

Be careful you don't fall and

crack your skull open.

Uggggh.

I want to do that job myself.

Be careful!

Get back here!

You are in so much trouble, Neil.

You're gonna wish you were...

? Na na na-na na ?

Neil.

Cindy?

Cindy!

Cindy! Help! Help!

Aah! Cindy!

Neil!

Cindy!

Neil!

Cindy! Help! Cindy! Cindy!

Cindy!

Neil!

Where are you?!

Neil.

? Oh, oh, oh, oh ?

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

? Hey ?

? Hey ?

? Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh ?

? Oh, oh, oh, oh ?

? Hey ?

Finish up that wonton chupacabra, hero.

We've got work to do.

Look... I think you guys are

great... seriously.

And you were a lot of help

dialing me in in all the

Spooksville weirdness, but

school's starting soon, and I'll

probably be going out for

football, spending a lot of time

at practice, and, uh, hanging out with...

Less paranormal-attuned kids.

I'm sorry.

That's not gonna happen.

That's incredibly horrible.

And from what we've heard,

incredibly inaccurate.

Don't believe everything you

read in Spooksville.

Or anything you read in

the Springville oracle.

"Alleged victim's sister,

Cindy Mackie, 14... loves

rollerblading," some British boy

band I've never heard of, "and

coconut frozen yogurt."

Coconut frozen yogurt?

All data is potentially relevant.

Okay.

Here's what she secretly

IM'd her BFF back home in Michigan.

Whoa!

You hacked her phone?

A little bit.

She made me.

You'll thank us later.

Read.

"Everyone keeps saying that I

just imagined it, but I didn't.

Neil was there one minute, there

was a bright light, and he

vanished into thin air"...

Exclamation point.

"Vanished into thin air"...

Exclamation point.

Sure you're still not interested?

Okay.

I'll look into this one with you.

But don't go thinking this is a

regular thing.

It's just this one time.

Whoa! Wait up!

Wait.

I thought we were going to that

girl Cindy's house to question her.

Cindy's not at her house.

She's by the rocks.

How would you know?

Let me guess... you hacked her GPS.

Reading her text is bad enough,

but tracking her?

Not only is that incredibly illegal...

And by "incredibly illegal,"

you mean "incredibly awesome, but illegal."

An incredible invasion of privacy.

People don't like to be spied upon.

Fine.

In that case, my intuition

states she's somewhere around here.

All right, well, where does

your intuition state she is now?

She's right over there.

Then when the fog cleared, he

was just... gone.

I called and called for him.

Nothing.

Okay, so, these claws that

you described, were they like

crab claws, or were they...

Somewhat like eagle talons?

What?

Uh... neither.

They were like old-people

hands... really old people,

like... dead old.

Cindy... No offense, but even if there

was some supernatural something,

why would it take your brother?

How would I know?

D-do you think I'm lying?

You said you wanted to help.

My life is turning into one long nightmare.

Well, welcome to Spooksville, sister.

Not just here.

It started before I even came to this town.

Dad died six months ago, and mom

couldn't find work.

We had to move here... to the

house dad grew up in...

In the middle of nowhere.

Everyone

keeps saying that I'm stressed

out, that I imagined what happened to Neil.

But I know what I saw.

Cindy, I've seen some pretty

crazy things, as well.

And I know what it's like to lose someone.

We'll look for him.

And if he can be found, we'll find him.

I want to come with you.

Absolutely not.

We are a team, like a perfectly

balanced machine.

Whoa.

Right now, your mom needs you.

Okay?

Okay.

But tell me the minute you find anything.

And we're not a team.

That last step... it's a killer.

Isn't it way more likely that

Neil fell into the water and was

washed out to sea than he was

abducted by some howling ghost light?

See, that's the kind of

common sense that makes people

ignore Spooksville phenomena.

Yeah, the tide's the same as it

was last night.

Neil would have been pushed

ashore, not out to sea.

Spooksville weirdness is afoot.

Ohh!

You guys!

Guys!!

Here comes the weirdness.

Help!

Come on!

Sally, let it go!

No way! Finders, keepers!

Okay.

Still think junior fell in the drink?

That paranormal

manifestation... or ghost, if

you must... was far more than a

visual apparition.

A solid phantasm must have had a

psychoempathetic link to a location.

Tell that in english.

He's saying a ghost like that

needed a home... a place to

stash that missing kid.

Well, in theory, there's...

Basically, yeah.

If I had to guess, I'd say it was...

Right over there.

We need to know everything

about that lighthouse.

Go away! Nobody's here!

You're always here, Mr. Spiney.

Library's closed! Get lost!

Okay, Mr. Spiney.

If you want to miss out on the

newest and most interesting

skeletal structure this town has

seen in years, that is totally up to you.

Just look at this specimen.

These are some a-plus bones.

Show me.

Ohh.

Oh, yeah.

I know the camera normally

adds about 20 pounds, but this

one takes off about 90.

He got your good side, though.

Very unusual.

Yes.

Excellent neurocranium.

Positively homeric.

In the words of my youth, "you

have one heck of a melon."

Mr. Spiney has a slight bone obsession.

Works to our advantage, though.

Well, that's great.

Maybe we should just use the web next time.

Good luck with that.

Internet works even worse than

cellphones here.

Uh, y-young man.

Don't lose that skeleton-donor card.

You'll need it.

U-uh, for research purposes

only, of course.

"Springville will hold

memorial services for

Jane Murray, keeper of the

Pike Bay lighthouse.

It is believed her heart simply

gave out after her recent tragedy.

The widow was raising her son at

the lighthouse when he was

tragically washed out to sea

during a freak gale.

The Springville Maritime Society

is considering automating the

old signal and turning the

residence into a nautical museum."

Very nice.

You have an excellent reading voice.

Okay. We found our ghost.

But why'd it kidnap Neil?

What you think of as a ghost

is really psychokinetic

energy... the remaining echo, if

you will, of a dead person, one

who died in great distress or

still has some unfinished

business on this Earth.

Okay, so, this ghost is

trying to replace the son she

lost to the sea.

Okay, first of all, the term "ghost"...

Doesn't roll off the tongue

as easy as "psychokinetic echo."

We know.

But why now?

I mean, why hasn't sweet old

Mrs. Murray been snatching those

kids off the jetty for the last 50 years?

Seems like she wanted that

necklace more than she wanted me.

Like, who chooses cheap jewelry over... me.

Guys, the point is, there could

be a little kid locked up in

that lighthouse.

We've got to do something about it.

We got to call the cops or something.

They hung up.

The police can't just hang up, can they?

Yeah. No, that is weird.

Normally, the police just let it

go straight to voicemail.

Adam, you'll find the local

constabulary here to be acutely unhelpful.

Sally believes this is due to

some supernatural spell.

Cast by local witch Ann Templeton, natch.

I, on the other hand, say

it's a simple subconscious

survival mechanism.

Don't drink that!

The police ignore the town's

pervasive paranormal activity in

hopes that it'll just go away.

Well, I'm not ignoring anything.

If there's a little kid locked

up in that lighthouse, I'm gonna

bust him out... ghost or no ghost.

We usually just investigate

and gather data.

We don't... Are you coming with me or not?

Looks like captain Jack's

fish shack after the end of the world.

Ohh.

Wait! Don't freak out!

Don't freak out!

Adam's right.

Okay, Adam's right.

We need to remain calm and

approach this obstacle

logically, methodically...

Forget this!

Run for your lives!

Go!

Go!

Go back!

Stop! Stop, stop, stop!

Shh! Listen!

I thought you said there was

no such thing as a ghost!

Yeah, well, there's not!

This psychokinetic phenomena

scares the ectoplasm out of me.

Shh! Shh!

That's Neil.

It's coming from somewhere upstairs.

That was no kid.

I've got an idea... one of us

has to lead the ghost away while

the others free Neil.

That's a terrible idea!

It's illogical. It's des...

I'll get the ghost to chase me.

You and Sally free the kid.

That's a fantastic idea.

You're smarter than I thought.

Hey, shrunken-apple-head doll!

Keep howling, and you'll get

the SPCA out... here.

Over here! Help me!

Watch!

Watch!

Wait! Don't go!

Oh!

Um... don't worry.

We're gonna get you out of here.

Hurry!

Watch!

If you're not too busy, maybe

you could help me rescue this

little boy before the terrifying

ghost comes back and kills us all.

You know, just sayin'.

Please... hurry, before she comes back!

Help me!

Untie him!

I'll try.

Okay. Okay.

If I had a whole horde of Boy Scouts...

Ohh!

Hurry, before she comes back!

It's okay.

Everything is gonna be just... Fine.

Possibly.

Who are you guys?

Oh, we're friends of your sister.

Was this ghost in the Navy or something?

Hurry up, guys! Hurry! Hurry!

He's really brave.

Hurry up!

Yeah, he is.

Adam.

I can't do this!

What do you mean you can't do it?!

Hurry!

Oh, wait! Wait!

Really?

Oh, are you serious?

Okay. Okay.

Aah!

Hurry up! Go!

Okay, I'll just stop taking my sweet time!

Aah!

Go, go, go!

Push him, push him, push him!

We can't do this.

We got to get out of here.

Go! Go!

Wait, wait! No!

Stop. Stop.

Oh. Okay.

Okay, okay. Watch your neck.

Watch your neck.

My pendant... it's gone!

Kid, a life-or-death

situation is not the time to accessorize.

It's special!

It was my dad's!

Wait... your dad's?

Are you sure?

Yes! He always wore it.

He was an orphan, and it was the

only thing he had when my

grandparents adopted him.

I'm not leaving without it!

Well, go get it!

Okay.

Gosh.

Some people are just all about the bling.

Here you go. Here you go, buddy.

Wait, wait.

I feel obligated to inform you

that I suggest we try sticking

to our traditional activity of

admiring Spooksville phenomena from afar.

Remind me later, after the

"us not dying" part.

Great! What now?

I have absolutely no idea.

I'm scared.

Come on!

Come on! She's right behind us!

What are you waiting for?!

You stay back!

I don't want to have to hurt you.

I don't think that's gonna be a problem.

Sally, I was bluffing!

He's not the son you lost!

He's your grandson.

Years ago, when you thought your

son was washed out to sea and

drowned, he didn't.

The current pushed him back to shore.

Later, he was found unconscious

and... no memory of his life before.

He grew up. He was adopted.

He even had kids... two kids, a

girl and a boy.

This boy... Neil.

The pendant.

The pendant was her only

connection with her son.

It somehow called to her.

Your unfinished business in

this world was to find the son

you lost, but he's already

waiting for you in the next world.

You won't be alone anymore.

Neither will daddy.

Hey, Neil.

I'll walk you up, okay?

I know it's a lot to process, but...

Hold my hand.

What?

I'm a very nurturing person.

So, how'd you know?

How'd I know what?

Back at the restaurant...

"Vanished into thin air."

You knew I'd be interested

'cause that's... basically what

happened to my mom.

I research everything, Adam... everything.

Nothing personal.

It's okay.

Sorry there's no connection.

Neil!

I was so worried.

Thank goodness you're home.

Turned out okay.

I got to go before my dad wakes up.

See you tomorrow.

Yes!

Do you think a reward is traditional?

Okay. Never mind.

? Oh, oh, oh, oh ?

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

? Hey ?

? Hey ?

? Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh ?
