Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge Edit

A big black one with feelers and fuzzy legs.

A bunch of moldy old creatures for, anyway?

A lovely little poem.

A spell or a charm.

A spell? You think someone put a spell on all of halloweentown?

A spell... or a...

A warlock? Sweet?

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Actually, I think I'm gonna head home, dad.

Add poison Ivy with a hemlock root

After a year away, going back for just a few hours...

After she gets out of high school.

Alex, I'm so sorry. I wasn't even thinking.

Alex, would you excuse us for just a minute?

Alex?

Alex.

All right, I hear you. What do you want?

All right, now say it backwards.

All right, why don't you just say it all again?

All right.

All right. Sure. I'd like that.

All right. There was that one algebra test...

All you do is destroy.

An evil warlock who's had a thing for my mother since they were teenagers.

And a long black whisker from a big black cat

And a thread from the collar of a vampire suit

And as for you, Dylan, I would've expected you to be more...

And do the thingy with your door.

And Dylan has to, too.

And each of us our own path decide.

And even if he's still eavesdropping, he won't be able to hear us in my house.

And here I thought we were going to avoid the annual family meltdown.

And his father seems li...

And I can show you things that aggie could not teach you in a million years.

And I choose all of you.

And I know marnie is just the stuff.

And I want you out of my cottage!

And I'd like to help you, but I'm not afraid of you.

And I've never understood why you bother with that Internet thing

And knew we'd come to investigate. It was a trap.

And live with our family in the mortal world.

And my brother Dylan and I all had to join together

And now he's gonna turn the humans into creatures.

And now we can get our full powers back.

And now you don't have that power anymore.

And right now, we're inside.

And so the fun begins.

And that means you feel things just like we do.

And that would help us how?

And the only reason he took it out of our house...

And the other one is still here.

And then I can take marnie for the year.

And then she looked at me. And she said these words

And then there are the really secret ones

And then, later, he shows up in a giant frog costume?

And then, when the portal opens again, we'll be ready to fight Cal.

And turned you human.

And use the power of the cromwell witch family to defeat kalabar.

And we can find your spell book.

And we really shouldn't be in here when she's not here, so I...

And we'll be waiting... together.

And what if this black hole theory, let's say, doesn't work?

And whatever he's planning, it is up to us to stop him.

And when my father tried to bring the creatures of halloweentown

And you couldn't find the second spell book.

And you did.

And you should already be in bed.

And your shoes. Ooh!

And, hey, I still need a date to the costume party.

And, hey, let's not forget the ogre with the flatulence problem.

And, to celebrate, Cal and I found a terrific mask for you.

Apart.

Apart.

Are you sure mom said this was ok?

Are you there? Can you hear me?

Aren't they cute? Anyway, it probably won't be a problem,

As goes the Jack o' lantern, so goes halloweentown.

Astrid, is that you?

Astrid, what's happened to you?

Astrid, you're forever the optimist.

Astrid.

Back as rulers of the human race,

Back into halloweentown.

Back into the mortal world.

Back into the mortal world.

Because you know we're gonna be home before midnight.

Becoming the head of the cromwell witches takes commitment, Sophie.

Before somebody gives you the prize for best mask.

Before they summoned up the powers of darkness

Between the mortal world and halloweentown.

Biblio magica. Yeah.

But at least you won't have to fight over me anymore.

But be careful when you mess with witch's brew

But he couldn't have taken it, 'cause I was with him the whole time.

But he got her into a really ugly mask. It's a scream.

But how?

But I guess the kids can come and visit you any time they want

But I hear there's this really big costume party at the high school.

But I'm a witch. I can't just not be.

But if he's willing to break the code of Merlin,

But if takes too long, midnight will pass, and the mortal world...

But it was similar to this.

But just to prove to you that nothing is wrong.

But let's have a big hand for the best Halloween party ever?!

But nothing's worth anything if you can get it just by wishing.

But once it progresses far enough, into humans.

But rules... rules have exceptions, right?

But someone has to take my place as head of the cromwell line,

But that's the whole point of the party.

But the spell seems to be turning the creatures not only gray,

But things that are lost here go poof.

But what he doesn't know is there are two.

But who would cast a spell like this?

But won't a year in halloweentown feel like 100 years to her?

But would you consider being my date for the costume party?

But you look just like you did when kalabar put that spell on you

But, grandma, saying a spell backwards can't be the only way to undo it.

But... but then you'd have to be a w...

By wind, by rain, by fire, by earth,

Cal?

Cal? You cast the spell on halloweentown?

Cal.

Calling Sophie.

Can I go? Can I go?

Can I put those in the freezer for you?

Can you drive any faster, Benny?

Catch ya later.

Change them into the creature whose disguise they have taken.

Children, you seal my room.

Cindy, stop it.

Come on, children, let's get inside.

Come on, get on.

Come on, grandma. Hide.

Come on, grandma. Humans aren't this boring.

Come on. It's just pretend, right?

Come on. Ooh, I know. Here, here. You write it down, write, write.

Come on. What do you say?

Come to papa.

Computers have back doors?

Cool?

Could live apart from the real world in peace and harmony.

Could you lower it a little?

Could you tell me what's happening here?

Creature spell.

Dad and I didn't always agree, but he was the only one that stood in the way

Dad was right. You're the enemy, and you always will be.

Dad, I found 'em.

Dear. I can't.

Dear...

Did any of you go to my room since I came down to the party?

Did grandma ever consider that she might have misplaced the book?

Do I know you?

Do you remember who you sold it to?

Do you think it could be someone... I didn't invite anyo...

Do you think these two match?

Do you want me to read you a bedtime story?

Does anybody know where we can find a swamp?

Does anyone have a... A dustpan perhaps?

Don't feel bad. He hates everyone.

Don't fight. No fighting. Witches don't fight.

Don't let your father's hate decide for you now.

Don't worry.

Don't you have some sort of, I don't know, a filing system?

Duh.

Dylan, I can't do this by myself.

Dylan, it's huge. How's she gonna "misplace" it?

Dylan, no. You've been looking forward to this for weeks.

Dylan, will you please answer this?

Dylan, you're not even wearing a costume.

Dylan? Dylan? Dylan.

Dylan.

Dylan. Are you there?

Dylan. Can you hear me?

Dylan. Will you please answer me?

Ecstatic.

Enchanted toads, back issues of magic monthly...

Every day for two years, pulling out bat games, dancing skeletons,

Every time they're trying to find their car keys.

Everyone, count down with me. Here we go. 60...

Everything in the universe that gets lost

Everything that's lost in both worlds always ends up at gort's house.

Everything that's lost other places ends up here.

Everything's kind of gray and boring.

Ew.

Except for the being made of frogs part.

Except they work like magic.

Except they work like magic.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Eye of newt and wing of bat

Finally we can get something accomplished.

First we have to get back to my house.

For a little spin around the house.

Forget it, Sophie.

Forget it. Astrid.

Forget the party.

Four hours till midnight.

Frogs are amphibians.

From halloweentown depart we now,

From halloweentown depart we now,

From now on, we each can create a portal,

From now on, we each can create a portal, and each of us our own path decide.

From now on, we each can create a portal, and each of us our own path decide.

From the mortal world depart we now,

From turning my own daughters against me.

Gestum ex alius mundus

Gestum ex alius mundus

Getting through the portal because of Cal's spell.

Go ahead.

Go play, but you play nice.

Gone... forever.

Good night. Thank you so much for coming. Bye.

Good. Be a golem. Go to bed.

Goodbye and good riddance.

Gort, I'm a goblin. Theoretically, I can't fly.

Gort, there are no matching socks here.

Gort, there was a particular book, an extra copy of my spell book.

Gort, these can't be all the books you've got.

Gort... gort... That sock doesn't match the other one.

Gotcha.

Grandma decided to leave her comfy house there

Grandma says being normal is vastly overrated.

Grandma says things in halloweentown are always changing.

Grandma was right.

Grandma, do you have a spell for time travel?

Grandma, grandma, none of them match. Focus.

Grandma, I don't think this is a very good idea.

Grandma, I think it's Benny.

Grandma, I'm busy.

Grandma, there's nothing in there, not even by magic.

Grandma, we can't just give up.

Grandma, we have to go back to the mortal world.

Grandma, wh... what's happening?

Grandma, what's happened?

Grandma, what's happening?

Grandma, why are you smiling? That's terrible.

Grandma, you already said the spell book isn't here. What else can we do?

Grandma, you gotta do something.

Grandma!

Grandma.

Grandma...

Grandma... I think it's time maybe we started your training.

Great, Benny. Ok, now to gort's house, and step on it.

Great.

Guaranteed with your money back. Too

Ha ha ha ha.

Ha!

Ha.

Ha.

Halloweentown was always a happy place

Has anyone ever told you you have the most beautiful green eyes?

Have we met?

He didn't want people to know.

He doesn't steal them.

He lets me figure it out myself.

He must be the one I felt coming.

He stole it, grandma.

He turned the creatures into humans,

He was so perfect.

He wouldn't steal anything, grandma. He's really sweet.

He'll be back.

He's becoming a fine young goblin, hasn't he?

He's more like a junk magnet.

He's not really Cal's dad, mom.

He's not really my dad, actually. He's more of a science experiment.

He's the one who steals the socks?

Hello, gort. You're looking... clean.

Help me.

Hey, Gwen. Great costume?

Hey, I brought you guys some cookies.

Hey, I think we should try to go into that black hole over there.

Hey, I'm no warlock.

Hey, is this book you're looking for leather?

Hey, it'll give me an excuse to see you again.

Hey, marnie, I'm not enrolled yet,

Hey, spike.

Hey. Gort. Are you home?

Hi.

How could you?

How do you do? I'm aggie, Gwen's mother.

How lucky for her.

How much time do we have left before the portal closes?

Hurry, grandma.

Hurry. It's almost midnight.

I believe I do.

I can even show you what he looked like.

I can't believe Cal did this with a spell out of your book.

I can't believe it.

I can't believe it.

I can't believe it. She's trying to open the portal.

I can't breathe!

I can't let this happen.

I can't let your mother spoil my fun every day of the year.

I didn't know kalabar had a child.

I didn't see that Cal guy anywhere. Do you think he's wearing a mask?

I do. Just the other day...

I don't care how strong you think you are, but you could never beat me.

I don't care. That's not gonna stop me.

I don't give to charity.

I don't know if I'll ever stop you guys from fighting,

I don't know, but someone is destroying my home.

I don't know.

I don't know. It's just, usually people's rooms look like 'em.

I don't know. You guys go hang out over by the refreshment table.

I don't see anyone.

I don't think the spell book is here.

I don't use it on tests.

I figured if my costume's good enough, maybe I could crash it.

I get to go, too?

I guess so.

I guess... I guess that is all there is.

I hate aggie!

I hate that word.

I have several books.

I hope I'm not interrupting anything.

I hope the gray spell hasn't changed an...

I hope you like lime. Green's my favorite color.

I invented them myself.

I keep all my scabs under the porch.

I know nothing has changed at our house.

I know you both have things to teach me, and now I don't have to choose.

I know you miss Astrid and Benny and all your friends there.

I like what you've done with the place.

I love you.

I mean, everyone's gonna be there, even your mom.

I mean, I was hoping for a little social interaction,

I mean, something to get us out of this trap, a spell or...

I mean, supposedly

I mean, we're trapped here, and... he's got your spell book.

I mean...

I mean...

I need somebody who believes that anything is possible. Do you believe that?

I needed to come home. I've been missing my friends terribly.

I never turn down help.

I only kept the useful books.

I really blew it.

I remember... I remember something from my spell book. It was a spell...

I saw a face that made a chill run down my spine

I see, and so Alex is what, an actor that Cal hired?

I see.

I see. He's not. And who is?

I should have been allowed to go, too.

I should have known when he gave me the rose.

I should say this is the caricature of humans in halloweentown,

I spend all of my time trying to keep you

I suppose it'll give us time to train you, as we planned to do.

I suppose the spell could be temporary.

I swear, that man would lose his head if his wife didn't put it in his lunchbox.

I think he plans to use the creature spell on the mortal world at midnight.

I think he's a golem.

I think I called it a trap....

I think I'll buy some more.

I think I'll stay around here and help out... if that's ok.

I think my dad got her into the spirit.

I took the one I usually use to the mortal world with me,

I tried that.

I wanna know why...

I want you to go into my room and read me a spell out of my book.

I want you to learn what I know, too.

I wanted to... clean.

I was just curious.

I was talking.

I wonder how it's changed.

I wonder if spells have back doors.

I wonder if there's anything to eat around here.

I would just like...

I would've had to be talking backwards to undo the spell.

I... I'm not turning against you.

I'd agree with you, dear,

I'd like that.

I'll baby sit Sophie.

I'll get my coat.

I'll sell these socks, too, as soon as I match them up.

I'll show you.

I'll take grandma.

I'll use my utmost powers of persuasion.

I'm a little afraid of flying.

I'm asking everyone for a small donation for the halloweentown school.

I'm Astrid.

I'm busy, you see, sorting my socks.

I'm going to go back and have a talk with marnie's new friend.

I'm gonna wear my mask. He knows me.

I'm in control of my own future, and it doesn't include you.

I'm kinda hungry.

I'm not afraid of you. I may feel sorry for you,

I'm not going to that party just to tell her that you think her date is a reptile.

I'm not going.

I'm not interested in your kind of magic.

I'm not sure how this'll work out, but I've always believed in you.

I'm not sure what I'm going to teach you.

I'm really sorry, you guys. You came here to warn me, but marnie...

I'm sorry that I got mad at you.

I'm sorry, grandma.

I'm sure they can always use more chaperones.

I'm sure we can find you something.

I'm sure we can find you something.

I'm thinking about halloweentown.

I've got your receipt... right here.

If all witches were as pretty as you, they'd have a better reputation.

If she keeps this up, you kids are never gonna grow up to be normal people.

If she wants to check on us, you tell her to call me on my head phone.

If there was only one copy of my spell book.

If you go to halloweentown for a year, that's gonna become your life.

If you'd like to leave a message. Your party will receive it

If you're there, yeah.

In approximately 400 years.

Into the creature they pretend to be,

Iron buns.

Is good stronger than evil? Let's find out.

Is harder than not going back at all.

Is my new and improved broom.

Is still the foulest, meanest, smelliest inhabitant of halloweentown.

Is the rest of your family coming, too?

Is this some kind of joke?

Isn't that fabulous?

It can't be. Luke?

It can't close now, it can't!

It could have been somebody else. I mean, we've been gone for almost an hour.

It didn't wear off of Benny or gort.

It feels so good to be back.

It had to have been something you did or said.

It just can't run out. It's connected to my house back in halloweentown

It seems marnie already knows more than I do.

It was created by magic, and nobody's magic is stronger than ours, right?

It was used on humans who mocked us by dressing up like creatures.

It was used on them to turn them into the very creatures they were mocking.

It was welsh. I could barely read it.

It'll work.

It's a little fuzzy... fuzzy there, but...

It's a simple limbo spell. I could teach it to you later.

It's a spell that was banned after the dark times.

It's affecting me now that we're in halloweentown.

It's against the code of Merlin.

It's all my fault mom's been turned into this horrible creature.

It's all my fault.

It's almost 11:00 in the mortal world. We've got to find him.

It's almost midnight. How did you talk to her?

It's closing.

It's empty.

It's gonna feel like a century here.

It's gotta be around here somewhere.

It's gotta be here. I know it is.

It's just as I feared.

It's just me and Cal.

It's just so frustrating.

It's kalabar, mom.

It's lost.

It's never been empty before.

It's no big deal.

It's not here.

It's not supposed to be there when we have guests.

It's probably gonna go after you, too, dear.

It's supposed to keep us from getting outside, right?

It's the gray spell.

It's the gray spell. It's affecting me...

It's time for the great unmasking...

It's too late.

It's worth a try.

It's...

Just as humans make fun of us from the mortal world at Halloween.

Just do it, Dylan,

Just follow the fastest moving timeline. Now get out of here.

Just give me back aggie's spell books.

Just home. We'll be back in a jiffy.

Just movies and stuff, but they're not really that educational.

Just my luck.

Just say the word, and I'll open up the portal.

Just the way it was written in aggie's little spell book. You naughty girl.

Just this boy I met Cal

Just wait for a year of mortal time?

Just... just to look at my house.

Kalabar bought it from me about 50 years ago.

Kalabar must've been working on this world domination thing for decades.

Kalabar's son is gonna make your whole house neat.

Knock, knock.

Leave my mother alone.

Let me help you.

Let's face it, mom. I'm just not that into Halloween.

Like what?

Like... like how hackers get into computer programs.

Little girl, you stink like a cromwell,

Look, I don't want to be too forward,

Look, look, look. There's Luke.

Look, there's Benny.

Look, we have to get out of here.

Look! You're a goblin again.

Looks like gort's been straightening up ever since the gray spell hit.

Luke?

Luke? Grandma?

Luke? Luke, where...?

Luke.

Magic can give you whatever you wish for,

Mama. No!

Marnie swears this kid Cal is a warlock and that he stole it,

Marnie, be careful.

Marnie, grandma wants you to come down.

Marnie, I love them, too, but I can't change the rules.

Marnie, is that you?

Marnie, ixnay.

Marnie, where are you?

Marnie, you can't pick and choose.

Marnie?

Marnie... where is she?

Matching, matching. You want the long one?

Maybe grandma misplaced it.

Maybe it was in there backwards somehow.

Maybe it's in here. Maybe it's in here.

Maybe we came too far back in time, maybe before she even lost the spell book.

Meanest inhabitant in all of halloweentown.

Meeting you is everything I hoped it would be.

Mom already put the big foot down.

Mom and grandma are fighting again.

Mom, we're not turning against you.

Mom!

Mom!

Mom.

Mom. Hey, mom.

Mom...

Mommy, look.

Mommy.

Most disgusting costume wins a prize after the unmasking at midnight.

Mother.

Must not have said it right.

My beautiful dirt cleaned?

My boy, my boy.

My dear, if you want to reject your heritage, that's your business,

My gosh, mom doesn't know about the creature spell.

My mom Gwen. My grandma aggie. My sister Sophie

My mom hates Halloween.

My mom likes ordinary, I guess.

My mom? You're lying.

My wonderful junk sold in a yard sale?...

My.

My. My.

My. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Need a ride?

Nice job of escaping my spell.

Nice to meet you.

No way.

No way.

No, but you didn't say spell. You said something else.

No, go away. We're busy.

No, I could have stolen the book anytime.

No, I suppose not.

No, I'll just wait till next Halloween,

No, it just wore off.

No, let me do the talking, dear.

No, no, dear, not at all, because, you see, if it's lost,

No, no, no. She meant it, really.

No, sweetie. You should already be in bed.

No, that's not it.

No!

No.

No.

No. Excuse me. Excu...

No. Grandma hasn't taught me how to fly yet.

No. Grandma, read this spell with me.

No. It's impossible!

No. It's... it's great.

No. Listen.

No. My dad doesn't waste his breath on stuff like that.

No. No, but there's something that we need.

No. Some spells are short.

Nobody cares about the code of Merlin anymore, marnie.

Nobody's perfect.

None of us can go.

Nos te appello ut adduco domus!

Nos te appello ut adduco domus!

Not just everything. Everybody.

Not that he's willing to part with any of it.

Now get out! I have messing up to do.

Now it's Halloween night again.

Now no more talk until we're inside,

Now that they've figured out their way around the rules.

Now you're gonna corrupt all the children in the neighborhood.

Now, before we tell the winners of the costume contest,

Now, Cal seems like a very sweet and charming young man

Now, if you see him, don't do anything. Just come and get me.

Now, if you're going to be real witches and warlocks,

Now, on the way, you can call your brother and give him an update

Now, perhaps you'd like to take our little partygoers

Now... where was I?

Of course I do.

Of the cromwells' domination of halloweentown.

Ok, but how do we do it? There's no spell for this.

Ok, guys, I think it's time that you were running.

Ok, I overshot just a little bit.

Ok, I say we head back to the mortal world.

Ok, I say we head back to the mortal world.

Ok, I think that it would be a good idea if everyone around here

Ok, it was something like, something to get us out of this trap.

Ok, let's not get upset.

Ok, maybe we'll go for a minute,

Ok, maybe... This is it. No. Aah!

Ok, ok, all right. Let me think.

Ok, ok. Nice gort.

Ok?

Ok.

Ok.

Ok.

Ok.

Ok.

Ok. Ahem.

Ok. No...

Ok. Um...

Ok... he's keeping us in here with a spell,

On this, the night, all hallow's Eve,

On this, the night, all hallow's Eve,

On this, the night, all hallow's Eve,

One per customer, please.

Ooh! Magic, magic, brooms, brooms. There you are, dear.

Or I'll spam your diary all over the net.

Or me. I'd be good, too.

Or warlock.

Our powers are draining, dear. I'm afraid we're trapped.

Over here.

Perhaps I should just pop back up to halloweentown,

Perhaps it's lost.

Perhaps, but for the moment, he's our only suspect.

Pick you up in an hour?

Please tell me that you remember the spell.

Poof.

Pooh bear thenatos 23 skidoo.

Really? And your dad let you come to our party? Don't you have to unpack?

Relax, marnie. We've arrived.

Right again, Agatha.

Right again, Agatha.

Right, and you were picking your nose.

Right, so I was trying to get grandma to think of something else,

Right, well, I put it over there on that table

Right. Like this spell.

Right....

Rrarr!

Rules are rules.

Same to you.

Say what word?

See, I wanted you to show it to me because you felt something between us,

See, there are common spells that every witch knows

Sensible shoes are important.

She and grandma were having trouble

She can't live in both worlds.

She does? Yeah.

She has to choose.

She laughed so hard that milk came out of her nose.

She said that you were the smelliest, foulest,

She said that?

She was in halloweentown last time she called.

She's the boss?

She's very into the whole witch thing.

Shh.

Shh. Ok, I'll do it.

Slow down.

So has anyone asked you to go with them

So maybe we can come up with a stronger one.

So maybe whatever you said undid the spell.

So she likes to teach us about them.

So that's what this is about revenge.

So then that whole thing

So this world wide web I've heard about does it involve spiders?

So we're stuck here? We can't be stuck here.

So what if we tried to go somewhere else other than outside?

So you know about this witch stuff, too.

So you mean a way to weasel out of the spell without actually breaking it.

So you've been doing some reading, too.

So, does every spell have to be long?

So, marnie, have you thought any more about going to the party?

So?

So?

So. After we saved halloweentown.

Some of them downright weird

Some other way to break the spell.

Some wizard must've lost it.

Somebody's gotta be here to water the plants when they take you all away.

Someone must have taken it.

Something backwards....

Something broke the spell.

Something to get us out of this trap.

Sophie has a theory.

Sophie was right.

Sophie, listen to me. We're gonna open the portal.

Sophie, mom hasn't gone out with anyone in two years.

Sophie, you know that you're not allowed to do magic around strangers.

Sophie? Dylan?

Sophie.

Sophie. Soph, are you there?

Spell or a... no.

Spell or no spell, gort the rancorous

Spider legs and wolfhound fur. Bring it to a boil and begin to stir

Started coming up with simple explanations for things

Stinky. I miss him.

Stop doing everything your mama tells you,

Stop thinking about it, Dylan. Just feel it.

Sure, mom. Just make sure...

Sure. Let's go this way.

Sweetheart, it's your bedtime. Why don't you go upstairs and start getting ready?

Sweetheart, not here.

Take the books. I'd like to watch.

Talk to me? About what? How did you get here?

Tell me you don't feel like something's wrong.

Thank goodness. The taxicab is still working.

Thank you for the ride, dear. We're in something of a hurry.

Thank you, gort. "Proper toenail cutting."

Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks, gort. We are out of here!

Thanks.

That are only known to the witch who made them up.

That other sock, the last piece of the Jigsaw puzzle,

That was awful.

That was the last time I was in halloweentown.

That was very good.

That's absurd. The cromwells dominate no one.

That's all right. Cal's got loads of stuff back at the house.

That's all right. Cal's got loads of stuff back at the house.

That's Cindy.

That's gort, right?

That's just for the students.

That's not normal.

That's really bad.

That's very sweet of her, and I hate it when people are sweet!

That's weird. My teeth won't come out.

That's what male witches are called, right? Warlocks?

That's why Cal put your mother in a mask.

That's why I knew you'd end up at gort's.

That's why it's magic when we pull things out of it.

The bomb.

The door it won't open.

The earring you put down for just a second

The finale will come at midnight in the mortal world.

The gray spell is just the first act, marnie.

The gray spell must be draining our powers.

The gray spell must be draining our powers.

The head phone.

The only night we can pass freely between halloweentown and our world.

The party you are trying to reach is currently out of this dimension.

The past is one direction, future is the other.

The portal closes in just a few minutes, and we're only in the 1600s.

The portal hasn't always been there.

The portal's closed.

The rose.

The spell it's coming back.

The spell, it's coming back.

The timelines tell us what year it is in the mortal world.

The tour of the house it was just to get the book.

The tour of the house it was just to get the book.

The witchin' hour.

The... the portal won't open.

Then I think that we can safely assume that he's capable of anything.

Then maybe the spell on the house will wear off,

Then maybe we can.

Then maybe you wouldn't have to crash it.

Then some of these. Here, here. I know. Here. This is it.

Then why'd you let the mortals take charge of the earth

Then you can expect me for dinner next Halloween.

Theoretically, black holes can accelerate time.

There is nowhere else. There's only outside and inside,

There she is.

There, that's it. That's it, that's it.

There.

There's gotta be something we can do.

There's gotta be something we haven't thought of, right?

There's this thing called the gray spell, you see, and in a few years,

These are very comfortable.

These creatures are my friends.

They all end up in gort's front yard.

They can even be used to communicate

They have no will of their own and do whatever their creators tell them."

They just look for the back door.

They're like two lily pads floating on a crystal clear lake.

They're matched sets, two complete copies.

They're... well, I guess you could say I took 'em offline for the moment.

This can't be happening.

This is a secret.

This is it.

This is more than a date. This is our future together.

This is my world.

This is only five minutes ago.

This is so cool.

This is stupid.

This magic spell will transform any human you choose

This place is very, very messy.

This trap.

This'll never work.

Thought so.

Through the portal we take our leave.

Through the portal we take our leave.

Through the portal, we take our leave!

Till then.

Time travel. Grandma, you have a spell for that, right?

To heal the wound that worlds divide.

To heal the wound that worlds divide.

To heal the wound that worlds divide.

To the costume party at the high school?

Trap, no.

Trapa.

Trapa.

Trapa.

Trapa.

Trapa.

Trapa.

Trapa.

Trapa. Trapa.

Try and pull it.

Two years ago. Before I even knew I was a witch.

Two?

Um, do you need something?

Um, I mean, in the old days of fairy tales.

Um, it's ok. Aggie sent us.

Um, stories, I mean, about witches.

Um, well, I was, for a few minutes.

Um...

Under a cloak of black and a pointed witch's hat

Undoing spells isn't that hard, right?

Very good, aggie. You're keeping up nicely.

Wait a minute.

Wait, please.

Wait, wait. Here, trapa.

Wait.

Wait. Gimme that again?

Wait. Isn't this where the bus stop's supposed to be?

Wait. Out where?

Wait. You're going to the Halloween party?

Was to stop you from undoing the spell.

Watch out, watch out.

Watch out. Aah!

Watching as she stirred

We all make mistakes, dear, but don't worry about it.

We all voted to create our own world so everyone could live in peace.

We are gonna be the hit of the costume party.

We better go back to halloweentown and get rid of the gray spell.

We call on the dreams of creature and mortal,

We call on the dreams of creature and mortal,

We call on the dreams of creature and mortal,

We came all this way for nothing.

We can come back for her later.

We can't find it.

We can't. It's after midnight.

We couldn't have come back that far.

We don't have to hate each other.

We had to talk to you.

We have to get back to the present before we can warn her.

We just moved in down the street, and we heard about your party.

We need brooms, too, right? Here we go.

We should have a stranger there for all our family discussions.

We were looking for a book.

We'll be back in an hour, because I have a date.

We'll be back in plenty of time.

We'll be back soon, mom.

We'll just have to make up our own.

We'll never undo it.

We'll show Cal the cromwells are not so easily beaten.

We're gonna be stuck here for a year of mortal world time.

We're in.

We're never gonna make it.

We've got bobbing for apples right over there.

We've gotta find him and get the portal open before midnigh...

We've gotta get out of here.

We've looked everywhere, mom.

We've looked everywhere.

Well, aggie has the greatest respect for you.

Well, all right, you were searching through aggie's house...

Well, back doors are ways of getting into a program if there's a problem.

Well, come on, just swing your leg over.

Well, come right in.

Well, dear, it's always empty.

Well, did someone go in with you?

Well, go get them.

Well, grandma feels like witches are misunderstood,

Well, grandma said she hasn't seen it for decades.

Well, great. Then maybe the spell in your book can cure it.

Well, he clearly shares his father's hatred of humans,

Well, here they are.

Well, I can't... I've had this for centuries.

Well, I don't even have a costume.

Well, I don't know who put this all together,

Well, I guess we'll just have to call up the portal ourselves.

Well, I haven't looked at it in years,

Well, I haven't seen that other spell book for decades.

Well, I hope you're happy.

Well, I mean, you're turning gray and your bell bottoms are gone.

Well, I sold the rest at the yard sale.

Well, I still have a few tricks up my sleeve.

Well, I'm not really into the whole Halloween thing.

Well, I'm sorry, kids.

Well, in that case, take a number.

Well, it's a little crowded in here. You wanna give me a tour?

Well, let's see. If you went with a student who is enrolled,

Well, lime is good.

Well, only you, grandma and Sophie know the spell to get in.

Well, sure, but it's still my grandma's stuff,

Well, sure, but they're pretend ones, of course.

Well, that depends on whether or not that would be ridiculous.

Well, that doesn't make you welcome here.

Well, that's impossible.

Well, that's ok, right, because things that get lost end up here.

Well, that's ok.

Well, then that means Cal must've had grandma's other spell book all along

Well, there is my grandma's room.

Well, they're a little bit like your walkie talkies...

Well, um, it was nice seeing your place while it was still messy.

Well, we kind of left that part out before because we didn't think you'd like it.

Well, we're just rocking to the beat.

Well, we've hit a dead end.

Well, welcome to the neighborhood. I'm Gwen, and this is my daughter marnie.

Well, what happened, grandma? Did you say something?

Well, yeah, but the last time,

Well, you strike me as unconventional, but in a good way.

Well, you think about it, and...

Well... I'll summon the bus.

Well... till then.

What are you doing in my house?

What do you mean, "still messy"?

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

What do you mean? You had it.

What do you mean. It's not there? It should be on the table.

What do you think Cal's going to do to the mortal world?

What good are those things?

What if she's still wearing that mask?

What is this, some sort of biblical plague thing?

What we're made of, do you know what I mean?

What?

What? Fiddle.

What? There are no windows, either.

What?!

What... what are you doing?

What's everybody so happy about?

What's going on at your party?

What's going on?

Whatever you want. They're for you. For the party.

Whatever.

Whatever.

When I had to dig through the garbage.

When my witch's glass can show you anything you want to know.

When she looked me in the eye. She must have hypnotized me

When we moved in last year, I finally got my own room.

Where creatures of different sizes and shapes and species

Where is gort?

Where'd all the junk go?

Where's Luke and grandma? And what time is it?

Where's mine?

Where's my other eye?

Where's the big Jack o' lantern?

Where's the time travel spell?

Whether you like it or not, you're a cromwell, too,

Which forbids stealing the spells of another,

While we find a way to break this accursed spell.

Who?

Whoa, whoa. Just hold on a minute.

Whoa.

Whoa. Is that supposed to be a book of spells?

Whoever cast this gray spell knew it would affect my suitcase

Whoo.

Why did you pick that costume?

Why don't we just use my timeline?

Why don't you go back to halloweentown tonight while the portal's open?

Why not? What happened to it?

Why would you do something like that?

Why? Did you want to ask me?

Why? What's hers like?

Why? What's the matter?

Will you just stop saying that one?

Will you stop doing that?

With all my charms and all my spells.

With some kind of fancy writing on the front?

With the gray spell in it.

With this spell, I will avenge their cruel jokes at our expense.

Woo ooo.

Would you stop that?

Wow, how does it work?

Wow, I just had the weirdest dream. Was I asleep?

Wow, talk about going on a crash diet. Ha ha.

Wow.

Wow. Turning gray sure has made you a careful driver, Benny.

Yard sale?

Yeah, I guess so.

Yeah, I think you found him.

Yeah, sure.

Yeah, that reminds me... bye.

Yeah, well, my room is kind of ordinary.

Yeah? Who are you supposed to be El geeko?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. Just open the door.

Yeah. Ok, ok, everyone.

Yeah. So?

Yeow!

Yes, and Sophie is going to stay with me.

Yes, it's fun. It's fun. Go play.

Yes, Mr. gort, sir.

Yes, that's what it's supposed to be. But you can't touch it.

Yes, we have hats for everybody. Everybody, now, don't...

Yes, well, I have some more in the cupboard.

Yes, you can.

Yes!

Yes?

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes. Alex invited me, and...

Yes. Arnold must have forgot to put the thing out again.

Yes. This place was very messy.

Yes... yes.

You always did let your magic do the talking.

You better stop breaking in on my spells, Cal.

You can do it.

You can help out, you know.

You cromwells brought everyone against him,

You didn't say "charm," I know that.

You don't know my password.

You don't like it.

You got here just at the right time, marnie.

You guys go.

You guys go. You can make it up to me later.

You have real potential, marnie.

You just say 'em backwards.

You know, I don't think whoever lost these is missing 'em much.

You know, I think I liked this place better when it was gray.

You know, that book could be anywhere.

You know, that looks just like a Stephen Hawking description

You know, this is not the way to talk me into a date.

You know, you did undo Cal's spell once.

You mean cell phone.

You need an update. And besides, what do you wanna hang around

You said you saw a frog on the floor just after Cal's dad left.

You see, at this point, I could keep you people in here with a toothpick.

You see? Your mother can be reasonable.

You should see him when he's not in a hurry.

You shouldn't have done that.

You told me you make your own decisions.

You were just skin and bones, except for the skin.

You were right. We figured out how to break the gray spell,

You... you... you... you golem.

You'd still better prepare yourself, my dear.

You'll need a costume.

You're a stranger in this world after that.

You're kalabar's son.

You're not human.

You're ok.

You've been spying on us this whole time.

Your daughter stood him up. I'm afraid he's a little bit hurt, poor fella.

Your grandmother thinks everything's about magic.

Your mom's about to become a really moldy old creature.

Your mother's rules.

Your only power was the power to keep us apart, Cal.

Your so called dad,

Yours doesn't.

3, 2, 1!

15 minutes.

29, 28, 27, 26...

32, 31, 30,

35, 34, 33,

41, 40, 39...

44, 43, 42,

47, 46, 45,

57, 56...

400 years?

A fly. Dylan.

A golem. Made of frogs.

A little. Do you know any magic spells?

Aah. Whoa.

Aggie told you that. Marnie, but grandma thinks so, too.

and about his dad... All right, that's enough.

And one for you. Ooh.

Are you ready? What am I supposed to do?

Are you ready? Yeah.

Are you sure? That is wonderful.

At the high school? Yeah.

Bed. Don't make me laugh.

Benny? Wow!...

Boyfriend. Julia?

but you're the one that's got the date. Did you ask Tiffany?

Bye. Bye.

Can you read that? I don't know, but here, let's help her up.

Come on, I keep it in the closet. Timeline?

Come on. Well, I... I...

Didn't I say it right? Try it again with more feeling.

Do you wanna stay here? No.

Empty? Well, it's no wonder.

Everything all right? Um, yeah, just peachy.

Ew! I'm sorry I asked.

Good. Ahem.

Good. I've got some scoops over here.

Grandma gave it to me. Wow.

Grandma, will you do the honors? Of course, dear.

He's here somewhere. I can feel it. So can I.

Head phone. Ew!

Here we go. Grandma...

Hey, she did it. She changed it back. Yeah, check it out.

Hope I didn't scare you. Well, it is Halloween.

How about that one? No, that's not it. That's too small.

How about this? This? It's just a big... it's a big book.

How could they do that? I'm not sure.

I can't remember the spell. You have to.

I guess so. No. You've got to believe it.

I remember it. That's really good.

I'm Alex. Mother...

I'm now serving nobody! But...

I'm really thirsty. Cindy.

Just try it. He's busy.

Kalabar. What did you say, dear?

Look, just find the spell book, all right? It's not here.

Luke! Yeah.

Might that prize be a kiss? That's disgusting.

Mom. What?

Mommy. Sophie, honey, my mask won't come off.

Mother. Hello, dear.

Nice landing, Sophie. Like you could do better.

No. Ok. My goodness.

Not me. Not me.

Not that I'm aware of. Then how come I'm not gray anymore?

Ok, yes. Is it in there?

Ooh, I'd like that. Yeah.

Poof? Poof.

Pull from the top. I'm trying.

Quite right. You coming? I don't think so, mom.

Shall we go? Sure.

She misplaced the ogre. Stinky liked playing hide and seek.

She was busy. Samantha?

She's gone. But, grandma, it's me marnie.

So, um, when did you move in? Just tonight, actually.

So, you like ice cream? Sure.

Sophie wants to talk to you about Alex. Alex?

Sure. I'll get some punch. Great.

Thanks very much. Bye.

Thanks. Do you want some, son?

That's not what I mean. It's the spell, dear.

That's right. That's right. All right, dress up's over.

That's what your dad taught me. But I don't use magic for everything.

Then say this like a spell. But it's one word.

This must not be easy to get. It wasn't, believe m...

Time travel spell. Yeah.

Trapa? Yeah, it's "apart" backwards.

Try it again. Ok.

We did it. Look, there's Sophie.

Well, it's not. It has to be.

Well, then, let's look for it. Let's. Let's.

What are you guys doing here? Um...

What do you mean? With me the gray spell.

What do you want? Hi. Gort.

What does it look like? It's a big leather book.

What finale? Join me and find out.

What is it? What...? Just a minute. Give me that.

What is that? Something's happening.

What is that? The portal.

What? It's ok.

What? That's a spell in my book.

What's that? This...

What's the matter, dear? Somebody's coming.

Whatever. No, not whatever.

Where's Cal? Sophie?

Whoa! Aah!

Why are you turning gray? Everybody's doing it.

Will you just try it? Fine.

Write it down before you forget it. Spell, spell....

Ya think? Yeah. You, too.

Yay! Yes.

Yes. Marnie!

Yes. Good job. That's him.

You be good, sweetheart. You too, mom.

You flew here? Not very well.

You tricked me. Ha. You'll get over it.

You're not gonna give me warts, are you? That is a complete myth.

Your receipt. Mail it, dear.

Your what? My timeline.

... anything.

...I'm avoiding it.

'Cause the funny thing is, I just saw this seventh grader dressed up as a big fly.

'Cause the next thing I remember I was there. Standing in her lair

"100 recipes for tapioca."

"built entirely from mud or other natural elements.

"Dusting for fun and profit"?

"Golems are very pleasant creatures

"Hair of werewolf."

"The creature spell."
