Big fire tonight guys, I'm freezing!

Man, it is cold!

[achoo!]

Hey, point that someplace else!

Sorry.

Gesundheit.

You getting a cold?

Nah, just allergies.

[achoo!]

You sure?

Didn't you get a flu shot?

No way.

You got a flu shot?

Every year.

Don't you guys?

Not me.

Me neither.

I have a thing about needles.

But it's just a little shot...

and it's better than getting sick.

Nothin's worse than gettin' a shot.

Really.

Well, I can think of something.

And it's exactly what my story's about.

If you get really sick, somebody's gotta

take care of you.

Somebody who knows how to make you better.

And you have to trust that person,

cuz they know what's best for you.

Right?

Well...

what would happen if the person who was taking care of you,

was the one person in the world you should fear the most?

And nobody believed you...

nobody knew...

and nobody could help.

Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society,

I call this story...

Bye mom, bye dad! Have a good trip!

Bye mom and dad! We're gonna miss you so much!

We love you!

Yes!

A whole month with no one to tell us what to do.

What about Gramps?

I can handle Gramps.

Pick up the suitcases.

What??? Girls!

Grandpa!

My two angels!

Let's get you out of this cold!

I said grab the bags.

Why do I suddenly feel like Cinderella?

Hey AJ? -What?

You are dead and buried!

LOOK OUT!

Where'd they go?

Inside, I guess. Come on.

Don't you go tracking snow into this house,

missies.

We just came in to apologize.

For what?

AJ almost hit that lady with a snowball.

Gee thanks.

What lady?

The one who came in with a little boy, carrying presents.

Birthday presents?

Yeah. Where is she?

There's nobody here.

But we just saw a lady and a boy...

I said, there's nobody here.

[child crying in the distance]

Hello? Who's down there?

SURPRISE! [screams]

AJ! What is your malfunction?

There must have been a party next door.

It wasn't next door.

I saw people in the dining room!

What a shame, twelve years old and already demented.

I'm NOT!

I know what I saw!

Hush up now, eat your breakfast.

You can't have that!

Nicki!

What now?

AJ's allergic to strawberries!

One bite and bloat city. It's disgusting.

I am sorry honey. I forgot.

It's okay.

I was going to eat around them.

Let me clean up that mess.

Don't gramps. It's AJ's mess, she'll do it.

LOOK OUT!

Ahhhhhhh!

AJ, What? What is going on?

What's all the fuss?

I saw a girl, she disappeared.

Did you see the birthday girl?

You know?

I was hoping you girls wouldn't be bothered while you were here.

I didn't want you getting all scared.

Bothered by what?

Well...

the ghosts.

You see, a long time ago, a little girl

-just about your age, AJ -

fell down the front stairs during her birthday party.

That's what I saw!

She was carrying presents!

It was her birthday!

She died on her birthday?

She didn't die in the fall.

She hurt her leg and had to stay in bed.

The girl's mother hired a nurse to take care of her at night.

But, as the story goes, the nurse was...

a little crazy...

One night when the girl was asleep,

the crazy nurse filled a hypodermic needle with poison,

and gave it her while she slept.

Poor thing never woke up.

She was murdered?

Why?

Nobody knows.

The night nurse claimed she was innocent

till the day she died

in prison.

Cool!

Not cool, sad.

How do you know all this?

This trunk was up here when I bought the place.

Family must have forgot it.

That's the girl I saw fall down the stairs!

Her name was Emily.

Look! It's her birthday dress!

Night Nurse Convicted in Death of Girl.

What a creep.

Why do you think she keeps coming back?

Unfinished business.

That's always why ghosts come back.

Maybe she wants to tell us something.

Now that you know, I don't want you girls messing around

where you don't belong.

Let the dead rest in peace. Understand?

We shouldn't do this.

Grampa doesn't want us messing with...

Stop being a wuss.

You're the one who said the ghost

is trying to tell us something.

Yeah but... -No yeah buts...

let's do it.

Happy birthday Emily.

Yeah Happy Birthday. We've got a cake for you.

It's really good!

I put your name on it and everything.

Suddenly I'm feeling really dumb.

Yeah, me too.

At least we get to eat the cake.

Make a wish. OK.

I wish we could make that ghost appear.

Time for your medicine.

AHHH!

She was right here!

With a needle!

I knew you two were going to scare yourself to death

with this ghost business.

But it's true! It was the Night Nurse...

or her ghost.

The only ghost I've seen in all the years I've

lived here is that poor, harmless little girl.

But you could see her!

But nothing!

Forget about ghosts...

and clean up this mess.

You gonna help?

I've got a better idea.

Don't worry, I cleaned up the mess myself.

What are you doing?

If the ghost is trying to tell us something,

maybe we should try to figure it out.

Any luck?

No.

You know, this thing needs a better...

zipper.

Hey, check the pockets to see if... AJ?

Nicki? Nicki, Where are you?

Better question, where am I?

AJ!

Emily! Bring your presents downstairs so you can open them!

Me?

Who else, birthday girl? Look at you all pretty in that dress!

It's the dress, I gotta get it...

Off!

What happened to you?!

I put this dress on and went back in time!

What??? -And people thought I was Emily!

They were having a birthday party for me,

I mean for her, but I was her!

She was me!

It was unreal!

Get outta here.

I'm serious! The dress made me go back in time...

to Emily's party!

Yeah right.

Was the nurse there?

There you are!

Uh oh.

Not afraid of a little needle are we?

She wants to give us the poison!

Not us... you!

You're the one they thought was Emily.

You want to tell her that?

What are we gonna do?

I don't know.

Don't make me angry, open the door.

AJ??

Wait... the dress!

What about it?

I can go back in time and become Emily.

And what, open her presents?

No! I know what happened!

If I go back in time, I'll make sure I don't fall

down the stairs like Emily did. -And...?

If I don't fall, I won't get hurt and if I don't get hurt

then I... I mean... Emily, won't need a nurse.

And if the nurse never shows up then she can't murder Emily.

Right!

No murdering nurse, no ghost of a murdering nurse...

And we're saved!

Excellent!

I'm losing my patience.

You're losing both your patients!

Gimme the dress.

What! Why?

I'm the one going back!

But I'm the one they thought was Emily, not you!

This is too important, I don't want you messin' up.

[banging] Darn!

I'm not gonna mess up, and the dress doesn't fit you.

I gotta go.

For once you've gotta do things my way.

If you mess up we're both history.

All I gotta do is

not fall down the stairs.

There you are Emily.

Come on down. Bring your gifts.

Be careful coming down those stairs.

Yeah, tell me about it.

Last chance. Are you going to open up.

In your dreams, nursey-girl.

Uh oh.!

That's it!

That's why Emily fell!

I know you're hiding somewhere...

Ahhhh!

Yes! I did it!

Emily!

This won't hurt us much.

Well, maybe you a little.

No! Please, no!

Emily!

Someone call the doctor!

Hurry!

It seems I'm needed elsewhere.

We'll finish this later.

Ahhh!

Nicki?

Man, I just had the weirdest dream.

Time for your medicine.

It seems we've had a nasty little accident, Emily.

I'm not Emily!

Really?

We must have a touch of a fever too.

Get away from me!

After we've had our shot, we won't have any more worries.

I promise.

Let's not do that again.

You can't hide.

I know all the secrets of this old house.

I gotta get outta here!

It's only a matter of time!

Ahhh!

I told you, I know all the secrets of this house...

and it's time for your medicine!

I am tired of this child.

Take your medicine!

No! I will not let you poison me!

This is for your own good.

Is that what you tell all the people you murder?

Murder?

Don't tempt me.

One little pinch, that's all, and the penicillin

will make you better.

No! I won't let you! Get away from me!

Penicillin?

Wait!

Emily's allergic...

I mean, I'm allergic to penicillin!

Allergic? No you're not!

Yes I am! See? It says so right here.

Don't you ever take this bracelet off again,

do you hear me?

I didn't know!

You might have been killed!

Well... yeah!

Emily...

I'm so sorry.

No more shots, alright?

Of course not.

Let's help you off with this dress.

So Emily was allergic to penicillin?

Yeah.

It was all a mistake.

Who's that?

Emily, grown up. She didn't die.

I guess that means you didn't mess up.

Awful quiet in here.

You two aren't still ghost hunting are you?

Nope.

Not anymore.

The end.

That was a great story.

So the nurse didn't mean to hurt Emily,

she just made a mistake.

Exactly.

That's supposed to make me want to get a flu shot?

I don't think so!

[achoo!]

Would you please keep those nasty germs to yourself?!

[achoo!]

Uh oh.

Oh man, I hope I'M not getting sick!

[achoo!]

This place is like a nest full of -

[achoo!]

germs!

Nobody breathe on anybody.

We'll take different routes home.

Later!

If they just got flu shots they wouldn't...

wouldn't...

A-chooo!

Oh man!

YOU GUYS GOT ME SICK!!!
