Did you guys find him? Nope.
I looked all over maple and up and down Davenport.
I've got an idea.
Come on.
Where are you going? Just come on.
- I'm not gonna argue with you.
- You've got plenty of candy.
Two more houses, and then we're gonna go home.
But, Mom, you promised.
It's getting late, and it's way past your bedtime.
- But you promised.
- Please, help me.
Help me! No You should be ashamed of yourself.
No, wait! No, no, no.
No line.
Can't get it off.
No line.
Please help me.
What happened? I told you it was out of business.
Why do you think Steve would come back here? Because that's what I did.
When the mask wouldn't come off, I came here, and the owner of the store helped me.
How did the store owner help you? He told me to find a symbol of love.
I don't get it.
You know that plaster head of me you were throwing around? Yeah.
Well, my mom made that for me because she loves me.
Yeah, so? So that's a symbol of love.
The symbol of love that defeated the evil of the mask.
The haunted mask.
I don't know, Carly Beth.
This is getting too weird for me.
Hello? Hello! - There's no one in there.
- Wait a minute! What's that? What's what? I thought I saw something A shadow or something.
I don't see anything.
But I feel something.
Do you feel it? No.
What? - Something cold.
- Maybe we should go, Carly Beth.
- We can't.
You said the back door was open.
Show it to me.
- Do we have to? Hello? Is anyone there? See? I told you.
No one's here.
I've got to make sure.
She's got to make sure.
Hello? Is-is anybody here? Nobody's here, Carly Beth.
Steve's not here, okay? Where's the shopkeeper? Come on, Carly.
Let's just go.
Carly! You scared me.
Maybe Steve's okay.
Yeah.
Maybe Chuck's right, Carly Beth.
Maybe he just took off that stupid mask.
He just took it off, and now he's at home.
Listen.
We'll go by his house, see if he's there.
I'll bet you that's where he is.
I could just see him now, sitting on his bed, kicking back, counting his candy.
I sure hope so.
I'm turning into an old man.
No.
It-it can't be that.
It has to be a dream.
It's gotta be a dream! Home.
Got to get home.
Please, sir.
Please help me.
Your face So old, so hideous, so perfect.
Who are you? I am the evil that controls you.
You are under my power now, old man.
I'm not an old man.
I'm a kid.
You were, until you chose the mask.
Now the mask and you are one.
You're an old man, a feeble, helpless old man.
- No, it can't be! - Will be! You will do as I say.
Bring it to me.
- Bring what? - The head of Carly Beth! - Her head? - The symbol of love.
It lies on the mantle in her warm and lighted house! Y-you mean that s-statue thing? Yes! Bring it to me if you ever want to see your young face again.
I will wait in the cemetery.
I will wait amidst the gravestones.
By the stroke of midnight, and not one second later.
Do you understand? Yes.
- Louder.
- Yes.
Now, go! Bring me the head of Carly Beth, or the mask stays on and you will remain a feeble old man forever! Well, it's 11:25 now.
He said he'd be home by midnight.
Did you try Chuck's? I think they're together.
Uh, no, but it's not important.
We just wanted to stop and say hi.
If you do see him, would you send him home? We will.
Thanks, Mrs.
Boswell.
Do you want some candy? I have plenty left over.
Uh, no, that's okay.
Good night.
Good night.
Where is he? We've got to find him.
Maybe we should call the police.
The police can't help, Chuck.
All the police in the world can't help.
These masks are alive.
They take you over.
- You're scaring me! - You don't really believe that stuff, do you? I told you! It happened to me.
And I think it's happened to Steve.
Please! I need help! - Who are you? - Just an old man.
Are you hurt? Do you need an ambulance? No, no.
Just a glass of water, please.
All right.
I'll be right back.
Here.
I hope this will help.
Hello? Hello? Strange.
Gotta get going.
Gotta get going.
- Steve! - Steve? Wait.
Do you hear something? I guess not.
Steve? Steve? It's getting late.
I'm supposed to call my mom from your house by midnight.
This is, uh, about the only place we haven't looked.
Remember, Carly Beth, where you scared me and Steve last year? I remember.
Come on.
Did you bring it? Yes.
Don't show it! Destroy it.
If I do, will you make me better? If you don't, I'll make you worse! Your eyes will turn to pus! Your tongue will crawl in the dirt.
I'll make your bones soft like cheese.
Now, smash it! Smash the head! - Why? - When it is destroyed, Carly Beth's mine! Now, smash it! - No.
- Then I'll fill you with spiders! Can you feel them? Please! Please, no! Crawling over your tongue? Creeping beneath your skin? Okay! Okay.
I-I'll obey you.
I-I'll do anything you say.
You're groveling.
Good! I like that in a boy.
Smash the head! Help me.
Please, help me.
More spiders, anyone? Smash it! Now That which protects her is gone.
Steve? Let's not keep her waiting.
I heard voices.
So did I.
Steve? Maybe we should go.
One minute till midnight.
Steve? What's wrong, Carly Beth? This is where I buried it.
That's where you buried the mask? It's escaped.
The mask is alive! Carly Beth! Carly Beth, calm down! It's gone! It's just a hole! It's gone! There's nothing there! What is she talking about? Carly Beth, please calm down! My dear Carly Beth.
It's time to finish what we started last Halloween.
Hold her.
Steve! Steve, let her go.
The old man will do as I say! - I buried you! - I was released by the power of Halloween.
Now your eyes will see through mine.
Now You will wear my face forever! Oh, my gosh! Steve! Are you okay? Remove that mask, young man.
Remove it now.
Hey.
Is that all it is? It's just a mask? It's just a mask! How? When you tried to protect Carly Beth, when you threw yourself in front of the haunted mask, that was a symbol of love.
Boy, this is, uh This is a little too deep for me.
A wading pool's too deep for you, Chuck.
We looked for you.
We thought you could help.
I was trapped within the mask.
This boy freed me - and saved you.
- Well, I didn't want her to get hurt.
Didn't seem fair, you know? Halloween brought the evil to life.
Your actions put it to rest.
Let us hope it stays that way.
Carly Beth, your mom is coming to pick up both you and Sabrina.
Thanks, Mrs.
Boswell.
And, Chuck, your dad says you can sleep over.
Great.
How come you're so quiet? What's wrong? Nothing.
I'm fine.
- Do you want one? - I guess Halloween isn't a big deal for you anymore, huh? Yeah, I guess I'm getting too old.
Here.
Give me that.
Yeah.
Here.
Well, I'm making some hot chocolate.
You, uh, thinking what I'm thinking? Let's do it.
Hot chocolate's ready.
Here we are.
Nice and hot.
Thank you.
Thanks, Mom.
I hope you enjoyed that story.
That Steve is a good kid.
He brought me some of his trick-or-treat goodies.
Mmm.
Cream filling.
My favorite.
Good night, everyone.
