00:02 - What was that?
00:05 - What?
00:07 - I thought I heard something,
00:10 like an animal or something.
00:11 (chickens clucking)
00:16 - Nobody here but us chickens.
00:22 - Very funny.
00:23 - Here, let me do it.
00:26 - I can do it, give me the matches.
00:29 - Where's Kristen?
00:30 - She'll be here, don't get your shorts in a knot.
00:33 - Yeah, after the work is all done,
00:35 she wouldn't wanna break her fingernails.
00:37 (sucking)
00:39 Ouch!
00:40 - I'm gonna have to make a rule about late comers.
00:44 - What was that?
00:48 - Sounded like a hound dog.
00:50 - Maybe it was Kristen.
00:52 - She's no dog.
00:55 (dog barking)
00:57 (dramatic music)
01:01 - Kristen.
01:14 - Sorry I'm late, guys, I had to pick up Elvis.
01:17 - And who's Elvis?
01:18 - Me, nothing but a hound dog.
01:20 - My dad says Elvis is king.
01:24 - Kristen, are you gonna tell us a story
01:26 or are you just gonna sit there scaring us with Elvis?
01:29 - I have a tale that'll have you shaking
01:31 in your little boots.
01:33 - Ooh.
01:34 Elvis is here for the sound effects.
01:39 I'll need some help with the dust, Eve.
01:43 Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society.
01:49 I call this story,
01:53 (dramatic music)
01:57 The Tale of the Hungry Hounds.
02:00 (thunder)
02:07 On rainy days, Pam liked to rummage around
02:13 in her musty old attic.
02:15 Her mother never threw anything away.
02:21 (thunder)
02:23 There was stuff from Pam's grandparents,
02:27 from relatives, and ancestors who'd been dead for years.
02:32 One summer, Pam's cousin Amy was visiting from the city.
02:37 (thunder)
02:39 Amy, come here.
02:46 Look at this.
02:47 Isn't this great?
02:49 Grandpa wore this at his wedding.
02:53 Just think, my mother and your father
02:57 were just a twinkle in his eye.
02:58 But I guess Aunt Dora came first.
03:02 Amy.
03:06 Come here, look at this.
03:13 Amy, where are you?
03:17 (dramatic music)
03:20 Amy?
03:22 (thunder)
03:25 (thunder)
03:29 Hello, Charles.
03:31 Who's Charles?
03:33 The guests are arriving, dear.
03:36 It's nearly time for the wedding.
03:40 This isn't funny.
03:45 There are more things on heaven and earth
03:47 that you could ever dream of.
03:49 Says who?
03:50 Hamlet.
03:51 His father's ghost made him do things
03:53 that he didn't want to do.
03:54 Like what?
03:55 Like kill his uncle for marrying his mother.
03:58 Nice.
03:59 Glad we're not in that family.
04:01 I don't believe in ghosts anyways.
04:04 What's this?
04:10 (dramatic music)
04:13 I didn't know you could ride.
04:24 I can't.
04:27 Mom won't let me.
04:29 This is Aunt Dora and that's her horse, Mirage.
04:32 She sure looked like you.
04:34 Let's go.
04:38 No, no, no.
04:40 It's coming from in there.
04:41 Come on, help me.
04:51 Look, there's a name.
05:00 Dora Pease.
05:04 1963.
05:09 Come on, this is too creepy.
05:11 It's probably just a mouse.
05:12 No, we shouldn't touch it.
05:20 Mom says let the dead rest in peace.
05:22 Look, there's a little mouse hole.
05:26 Hey in there.
05:32 Tell us the combination and we'll let you free.
05:34 Pam, Amy, come on down now.
05:36 It's time to feed the dog.
05:39 Let's go.
05:40 I can't believe that I have to spend my entire summer here.
06:00 What do you do for fun anyways?
06:03 Promise you won't tell.
06:06 Come on.
06:07 His owners live in the city.
06:18 They only come here on weekends though.
06:19 Does it bite?
06:21 Nah, he's just a big baby.
06:23 Watch.
06:24 Come here.
06:26 Good boy.
06:31 So he's like a big dog, so what?
06:34 Watch this.
06:36 (dramatic music)
06:39 (horn honking)
06:44 Pam!
06:47 Are you all right?
06:50 Those animals are dangerous.
06:54 I told you never to go near them.
06:57 It wouldn't be dangerous if I knew how to ride.
07:00 Can't I just take some lessons?
07:02 No.
07:05 I wish you wouldn't bring the subject up again.
07:08 It's dinner time, let's go home.
07:09 But it's safe in a ring.
07:12 I don't wanna discuss it.
07:14 Mom, it happened 30 years ago.
07:16 Seems like yesterday to me.
07:19 I think you better give it a rest.
07:25 (dramatic music)
07:28 Won't work with just one person.
07:43 This is feeble.
07:48 Don't you do anything around here except play games?
07:52 What are we gonna do next, Jethro?
07:54 Shuck some corn?
07:55 Come on, humor me.
07:57 I found it in the attic.
08:02 Spirits are supposed to give us messages
08:04 from the other world.
08:06 Maybe they can tell us where to get pizza.
08:09 Amy.
08:10 I'm sorry.
08:12 Let's visit the far side.
08:14 Mom said that she and Aunt Dora
08:15 used to do this when they were kids.
08:17 You're doing this, right?
08:26 No.
08:26 L-E-T-M-E-O-U-T.
08:35 Late now.
08:51 No.
08:53 It's spelled, let me out.
08:55 Let me out?
08:56 Maybe it's that rodent calling from Aunt Dora's box.
09:02 One, four, nine.
09:09 What if it works?
09:21 We're just gonna open it up and take a look.
09:24 What's the big deal?
09:25 Yeah, but you saw how upset my mom got.
09:28 It's like she's haunted by her sister.
09:30 If she catches us...
09:32 Look, if it can fit through that mouse hole,
09:37 it's not big enough to hurt us.
09:39 Yeah, but what if it's something else?
09:42 Like what?
09:45 Now, what were those numbers?
09:46 One, four, nine.
09:47 Look, I'm telling you, this isn't gonna work.
09:49 And I don't even believe in this stuff.
09:52 Then you shouldn't be scared.
09:53 ( screaming )
10:04 Wait a minute, wait a minute.
10:06 What are we running from?
10:08 A mouse?
10:11 You're the country cousin.
10:12 What are you scared of?
10:14 ( sighs )
10:17 ( clears throat )
10:19 ( motor running )
10:22 ( music playing )
10:25 Oh.
10:28 Cool, it's all her riding stuff.
10:31 It's all covered with dirt and grass.
10:34 Yeah.
10:36 Looks like they never washed it
10:38 after the last time she wore it.

12:48 ( music playing )
12:51 ( music playing )
12:54 ( music playing )
12:56 Okay.
12:57 Ah-ha.
12:58 Good job.
12:59 You've totally creeped me.
13:01 ( music playing )
13:04 Okay.
13:05 I deserve it.
13:06 I've been a pain.
13:07 Now, let's go back.

13:57 It's all our family for 100 years.
14:00 ( music playing )
14:03 ( music playing )
14:05 As you are, so was I.
14:08 As I am, so will you be.
14:11 ( music playing )
14:13 Nice thought.
14:15 ( music playing )
14:18 ( music playing )
14:21 ( music playing )
14:24 ( music playing )
14:26 Aunt Dora's grave.
14:28 ( music playing )
14:29 Why did you bring me here?
14:32 ( music playing )
14:35 ( music playing )
14:38 ( music playing )
14:40 What is that? A bone?
14:43 ( music playing )
14:44 Mon petit rouge.
14:47 What?
14:49 ( music playing )
14:51 Mon petit rouge.
14:54 What is happening to you?
14:58 It's a gift from the fox.
15:01 He leaves me presents.
15:05 Very nice. Now...
15:08 Let's go.
15:11 ( music playing )
15:14 ( music playing )
15:17 ( music playing )
15:20 ( music playing )
15:23 ( music playing )
15:25 I called him Mon petit rouge.
15:28 My little red one.
15:31 I fed him each day.
15:34 He looked at me through the cage
15:36 with his golden eyes.
15:38 I know.
15:40 Let's travel back to Earth now, okay?
15:43 I didn't want the hounds to tear him apart.
15:48 But they were ravenous and howling for the hunt.
15:53 The day of the hunt,
15:57 I got up before dawn to see Mon petit rouge.
16:02 He was shivering in his cage.
16:07 I opened the door,
16:09 and I let him run free in the barn.
16:14 The hounds could hear him,
16:17 and they could smell him.
16:19 They were going crazy.
16:21 I know the feeling.
16:22 I opened the barn door,
16:25 and he seemed to smile at me.
16:30 And then he ran away.
16:35 The hounds were furious.
16:37 I wanted to ride after him before the hunters came,
16:41 so I saddled up Mirage,
16:44 and we raced over the hills.
16:47 But-- but then something startled him,
16:52 and he shied before a jump.
16:57 And he tripped.
17:00 And we fell together.
17:03 Pam, your imagination is running away with you.
17:07 You are Pam.
17:09 You're not Dora.
17:12 Hello, Dora.
17:22 I was wondering when you'd get around to your chores.
17:28 I've come to feed the hounds.
17:31 You should have fed them while they were alive.
17:38 I couldn't get back until now.
17:42 I was all torn up when you died.
17:47 My little Dora.
17:52 She is not Dora.
17:55 When I found them, they were nearly starved.
18:03 They leapt at me.
18:06 I couldn't keep them down.
18:09 I got away, but my heart--
18:13 My heart!
18:14 I'm sorry, Giles.
18:16 Why didn't you feed the hounds?
18:19 The barn run!
18:21 What was that?
18:35 I can't see a thing.
18:38 [dog barking]
18:41 What was happening to you back there?
18:55 Who was that guy?
18:57 Giles was the stable keeper.
19:00 What's the matter, Elvis?
19:06 Maybe he's scared.
19:09 Maybe he's hungry.
19:11 [laughing]
19:13 Who locked the girls in the barn?
19:17 It might have been Giles.
19:20 Or it might have been another ghost from the family graveyard.
19:25 There's got to be another way out of here.
19:30 I have to feed the hounds.
19:33 I can't let them get strained on me again, please.
19:36 They're trapped in there.
19:38 Starved, and it's all my fault.
19:40 You listen to me.
19:42 You are not Dora.
19:44 You're Pam.
19:46 It's not your fault, and it wasn't her fault either.
19:50 It's that jacket.
19:52 Take off the jacket!
19:55 Dora, listen to me.
19:59 You have no nieces.
20:01 You're inside Pam's body.
20:04 Nonsense.
20:06 I have no nieces.
20:09 My brother and my sister are ten years old.
20:13 I've got to feed those hens.
20:16 We start before a hound can eat.
20:19 What if they attack us?
20:21 They must be fed.
20:23 Pam! Dora!
20:25 Don't open that door!
20:29 Let me go.
20:31 I have to feed the hounds.
20:33 Not until you let Pam back into her own body.
20:36 Forget it. I'm going for help.
20:38 No!
20:40 I don't know the way.
20:42 I'll show you if you let me feed the hounds.
20:45 What are you going to feed them?
20:47 Me?
20:48 Kimball, let me out and I'll get it.
20:50 No way.
20:52 Tell me where it is.
20:56 If you don't tell me, we're both dog meat.
21:00 Over there by the ladder.
21:07 [hounds barking]
21:11 [hounds barking]
21:15 [hounds barking]
21:18 [hounds barking]
21:31 [hounds barking]
21:34 The ladder.
21:58 [hounds barking]
22:01 [hounds barking]
22:04 [hounds barking]
22:07 [hounds barking]
22:10 [hounds barking]
22:13 [hounds barking]
22:16 Pam! No!
22:19 They're so hungry.
22:22 Wait till I get the Kimball over there.
22:25 [hounds barking]
22:27 I'll throw it to them.
22:30 [hounds barking]
22:33 Bounder, Rexy, Helga, Brutus, you can come out now.
22:39 I have something for you.
22:42 Pam! Dora!
22:46 Don't open that door!
22:49 No!
22:52 [hounds barking]
22:56 [hounds barking]
23:00 [hounds barking]
23:04 [hounds barking]
23:07 [hounds barking]
23:11 [hounds barking]
23:15 [hounds barking]
23:18 [hounds barking]
23:42 Mom, Pati Roach! He saved us!
23:46 Pam?
23:49 Pam, where are you?
23:53 [horns honking]
23:56 [horns honking]
23:59 [horns honking]
24:02 [horns honking]
24:05 [horns honking]
24:08 [horns honking]
24:11 [horns honking]
24:14 [horns honking]
24:17 Pam?
24:20 Pam?
24:23 Wait!
24:26 Come back!
24:29 [horns honking]
24:42 [horns honking]
24:45 [horns honking]
24:48 (dramatic music)
24:51 (gun fires)
25:02 - What am I gonna tell Aunt Beth?
25:06 - Tell her about what?
25:07 - Him!
25:08 Are you okay?
25:10 - Yeah, I'm fine.
25:11 It's just my allergies and all this dust.
25:14 - Let's go downstairs.
25:16 This place is haunted.
25:18 - I thought you didn't believe in ghosts.
25:21 Come on, I gotta go feed the dogs.
25:24 - What dogs?
25:26 You only have one.
25:27 - That's what I said.
25:29 I have to feed the dog.
25:31 - You said dogs.
25:32 You said I have to feed the dogs.
25:35 - Did not.
25:36 - You did too.
25:37 - Did not.
25:38 - Did too.
25:38 - Who cares what I said?
25:39 What's wrong with you?
25:42 - Nothing, nothing.
25:43 I'm fine.
25:44 I'm okay.
25:46 - Okay.
25:47 - Rexy's hungry and I'm gonna go feed him now.
25:51 - I have just the thing.
26:05 - After that, Pam tried one more time
26:12 to convince her mother to let her take writing lessons.
26:16 And it finally worked.
26:18 Because her mom was no longer haunted by her sister Dora.
26:22 And Dora's ghost was no longer tormented
26:27 by the howling of the hungry hounds.
26:30 The end.
26:34 - I declare this meeting of the Midnight Society closed.
26:43 Don't forget to feed your dog.
26:46 Or he may have a bone to pick with you.
