A Day Of Witches

And Wizards!

There's Magic In The Air.

Wow!

The First Thing That

Oscar's Going To Do

Is Judge The Pumpkin

Carving Contest.

I Know You've

All Worked Hard

On Your Pumpkins,

So Let's Show Them Off,

Ha Ha!

That Was Terrific, Kids.

They're All

So Wonderful.

It's Hard To Decide

Who Will Win

This Magic Wand.

I Hope I Win It!

I Hope I Win It!

And The Winner Is...

You Two!

You Mean We Each Get

A Magic Wand?

I Only Have One.

You'll Have To Share.

Story Of Our Lives.

I Get It First.

You Always Go First.

O.K. Just Don't

Break It.

Jacuzzi! Jacuzzi!

Abracadabra!

Whoa! Whoa!

Hey, That Was Neat.

How'd You Do That?

I Didn't.

He Didn't.

What A Clown!

Thanks For The Party.

Don, I Know You Won't

Like This Idea,

But I Thought

Of Somebody Else

We Could Go To.

Anybody.

I'll Try Anybody.

Aunt Agatha.

Anybody But Her.

We Have No Other Option.

The Bank Said No.

What's The Worst

She Could Do,

Turn Us Down?

She Could Humiliate Us,

Insult Us, Reject Us.

It Could Get Ugly.

We'll Stop

On The Way Back.

Please, Honey?

Where Have You Been?

My Girls Have Fun?

Yeah! This Great Clown

Made Balloon Animals.

Mine's A Dog

Or A Fish.

Maybe Its A Dogfish.

Look At This

Magic Wand I Won.

We Won.

Thanks For Having

The Party.

Thanks For Coming.

They Are So Cute.

Must Be Murder

Trying To Tell Them Apart.

[Sarcastic Laughing]

Are We Going To Go Home

And Make Our Costumes?

We're Making A Stop

On The Way Home,

Just To See Somebody.

Just So We Don't Wear

The Same Costumes.

That Is So Dorky.

I Don't Want To

Look Like Kelly.

I Don't Want To Look

Like You, Either.

Kelly, Lynn.

Well, Here We Are.

Ooh,

What A Great House!

Who Lives There?

My Aunt Agatha.

You Have An Aunt That Lives

In A House Like That?

You Never Told Us

About Her.

She's Not

What You'd Call

A Close Relative.

Anything We Can Do

To Change That?

You Two Better Wait

In The Car With Norman.

Why Can't We Come?

Well, She Doesn't

Like Children.

She Doesn't Like Children?

She Doesn't Like

Anybody.

Come On.

Get This Over With.

You Two Be Good.

[Doorbell Rings]

[Pounding On Door]

There's Someone

At The Door, Madam.

Duh!

Should I Answer It, Madam?

No. I'll Answer It.

You Sit Here

And Be Filthy Rich.

[Meow]

Abracadabra!

Kelly, Wake Up!

What?

The Wand Just Flew

Out Of My Hand.

Sure.

Come On.

Yes?

Aunt Agatha,

It's Christine...

Your Niece.

I Know Who You Are.

What Do You Want?

Could We Talk To You

For Just A Minute?

If You Must.

[Whimpering]

[Whimpering]

Aah! Aah! Aah!

He Won't Hurt You.

Who Said That?

Me.

Oh. Ahh.

Yeah.

That's Just Norman.

He Wouldn't Hurt Anybody.

But...You Were Over There.

No. That Was Me.

Aah! You're In Two Places

At The Same Time!

We're Twins, Silly.

Ohh. Ohh!

Ohh! Oh, Twins.

Oh.

Twins?

Do You Drink

Lots Of Coffee?

You Might Want To

Switch To Decaf.

If You Had My Job,

You'd Be Nervous, Too.

What's Your Job?

I'm A Gravedigger. That's

Why I'm Digging A Grave.

For Who?

Shh! Shh!

I'm Doing It

For Very Little Money

For...Her.

It Doesn't Pay

To Cross Her.

Who Or What She Plans

To Bury, I Don't Know.

I Don't Want To Know.

I Have To Hurry Home.

I'm Not Leaving

My House Again

Until The Day

After Halloween!

How Come?

Don't You Know What Happens

On Halloween?

Yeah. You Go

Trick-Or-Treating.

This Guy Needs

To Get Out More.

Halloween--Allhallows Eve.

It's The Yearly Festival

Of The Witches.

They Cast Their Spells

And Celebrate

Their Dark Doings

At A Gathering.

Since The Time

Of The Druids And Celts,

It Has Been So.

They Summon Ghosts

And Goblins

To Do Their Bidding,

And The Dead Have Been Known

To Rise From Their Graves.

She'll Be At

The Gathering, I Bet.

What's A Gathering?

It's A Get-Together,

It's A Party, Kind Of,

For Witches And Their Ilk.

What's An Ilk?

It's Kind Of

Like Bullwinkle.

No, Bullwinkle's

Kind Of A Moose.

Ilk Is Like Friends.

But Witches Are Just

Make-Believe.

I Didn't Think

They Really Existed.

The Question Is Not

Whether You Think

Witches Exist

But Whether The Witches

Think That You Exist.

Are You Saying

Witches Are Real?

Oh, Yeah.

There Are Good Witches

And Bad Witches.

A Bad Witch Lived In

That House 200 Years Ago,

And A Bad One

Lives There Now.

Sit Down.

Over There.

I Knew That If I'd Called,

You Wouldn't Have

Wanted Us To Come.

You're Right.

Why Did You?

Well, It's Been Seven Years

Since I've Actually

Seen You,

Ever Since

Aunt Sophia Left.

It Must Have Been

Upsetting When She Left.

Upsetting? Ha Ha Ha!

I'm Loving It.

Good Riddance,

I Say!

I Have Never Understood

How You Could Just

Cut Off Contact

With Everybody Like That.

You've Never Even

Met Our Girls.

We're Family.

Family?

Family

Is Just Strangers

Who Happen To Be

Related.

I'm So Glad We Came.

[Groaning]

200 Years Ago,

The Townspeople Seized

The Witch Who Lived There

And Burned Her

At The Stake.

But She'd Hidden

Her Moonstone,

The Gem That Gave Her

Her Powers.

For Many Generations,

No One Could Find It,

And Then,

50 Years Ago On Halloween,

Two Little Girls

Just Like You

Heard The Legend

And Began To Look

For The Moonstone.

Two Girls Just Like Us?

Yep. Twins, Just Like You--

Agatha And Sophia.

I Win. Let's Look

For The Moonstone.

If We Find It,

We'll Make A Wish.

We'll Wish That

We're Not Twins

And That We're

Completely Different.

Splendid!

You Look In The Basement.

I'll Look In The Attic.

[Door Creaking Loudly]

Sophia! Sophia!

Sophia! Sophia!

Did You Find

The Moonstone?

I...

No. I Didn't Find It.

I've Been Thinking It Over.

That's Just An Old Story.

There's No Magic.

But The Moonstone...

It's Just Make-Believe.

You Don't Believe

In Magic, Do You?

No, I Don't

Believe In It.

Didn't She Share

The Moonstone

With Her Sister?

After That,

She Never Shared Anything.

Here. You Hold This

For A While.

She Learned More Spells

And Used Them

To Make Her Sister's Life

Miserable,

And Finally,

She Used The Moonstone

To Trap The Spirit

Of Her Sister

Inside That Very House,

And There It Remains Trapped

To This Day.

Can't Somebody

Do Something?

Oh, The Spell

Can Only Be Broken

At Midnight On Halloween.

How?

Well, Someone Would Have
