00:00We were just watching the movie one day and he says, I want to go to Halloweentown someday
00:07and I go, it's a real place.
00:14The event is called Spirit of Halloweentown.
00:16It basically honors the movie.
00:19Welcome to Halloweentown.
00:23Look at all of your beautiful faces.
00:30I'd never seen Halloweentown and to be honest, I didn't even know about Halloweentown.
00:34And what I saw in the film were children going against their parents and sneaking to a special
00:41town in another dimension where everyone can be their true selves.
00:50It comes from making people happy.
00:54I am putting together a little performance.
00:57And you dress up like zombies with blood and goo and brains.
01:01Yep.
01:02Awesome.
01:03When you're standing back here and people walk in, they just freak out.
01:07Kids actually start crying like crazy about the time they get here and then they have
01:11to go out our emergency exit door.
01:14There's an element in town that does not like Halloweentown.
01:19When you're celebrating the devil's birthday, it's a holy day set apart for celebrating
01:25the saints.
01:26So he's mocking God, you know, by, you know, this Halloween.
01:35This is where I was haunted by the old man.
01:37I had this mental sense that someone was coming up behind me to push me down the stairs.
01:45I can see somebody falling through that floorboard.
01:48Is there anybody here?
01:50Did you die in this room?
01:53The spirits in Halloweentown, I want to invite them into our circle.
01:59Can you make a noise?
02:01We are not here to harm you.
02:04We want to communicate with you.
02:08We believe in you.
02:15Let's see if they still have some.
