To Rub The Moonstone

And Say

The Right Incantation--

What's

An Incantation?

It's Magic Words

Like Abracadabra,

Uh...Gizzorn And Platz.

[Owl Hooting]

Oh! I Shouldn't Even

Speak Of Such Things.

The Shadow World's

All Around Us.

I Could Be Carried

To The Dark Side

Of The Moon.

You See, I Live

Where The Sun Always Shines

And It Never Gets Dark.

Smart, Huh?

Goodbye.

Take Care And Beware.

Aunt Agatha, I'm Going

To Be Honest With You.

Don's

Construction Business

Isn't Going Well.

He's Good At It.

I'll Bet.

But With The Recession,

A Lot Of People

Haven't Paid

What They Owe.

So?

So...We Need Your Help.

The Bank Is Threatening

To Foreclose On Our House.

We're Asking For A Loan,

Not A Gift.

I Knew It!

You Had A Selfish Reason

To Come

Crawling Around.

It's Take, Take, Take!

That's Not Fair!

All We've Gotten From You

Is Rejection And Abuse.

If You Think That's

Rejection And Abuse,

You Ain't Seen

Nothin' Yet!

I Took The Liberty

Of Preparing Tea.

Drop It!

Now Take The Liberty

Of Showing These

Beggars The Door.

They're Out Of Here.

[Cat Screeches]

Aah! My Cat!

My Cat! Aah!

[Dog Barking]

Norman,

Leave That Cat Alone.

Norman,

Get Out Of There.

Kids, Get Away

From That Cat.

The Moonstone.

Twins.

You Never Said

You Had Twins.

When Did You Give Us

The Chance?

Get Off My Street Right Now!

Don't Yell

At My Daughters!

Take That Mutt

And Those Brats!

I'm Warning You.

Gladly.

Girls, We're Going!

Never Come Back!

You Hear Me?

Here, Kitty, Kitty, Kitty.

Here, Kitty,

Kitty, Kitty.

[Growling]

Let's Go, Let's Go.

Come On.

Come On.

Where Are You?

They've Come.

I Knew They'd

Come Someday.

Don't Get Your Hopes Up,

Goody-Two-Shoes.

But--

No Buts.

Tomorrow Night

At Midnight,

It'll Be Seven Years

Since I Banished You.

Oh!

The Big Seven,

And The Spell

Becomes Permanent.

I'm Going To Drip

Bat's Blood

And Sealing Wax

On This Mirror

And Bury It.

I Have A Nice Grave

All Ready.

You Really Enjoy

Being Evil, Don't You?

It's The Best.

Mom, When I'm Older,

Can I Get A Nose Job?

What's Wrong

With Your Nose?

Nothing, But Then We

Won't Look Like Twins.

Better Yet, Can Kelly

Have A Nose Job?

I Don't Want A Nose Job.

I Want A Tattoo.

What?

Being Twins Is Special.

Is There A Curse

On That House?

There's A Curse

In That House.

Why Do You Ask?

Because

The Gravedigger

Said So.

Gravediggers And Curses?

Girls, Halloween Isn't

Till Tomorrow Night.

Is Aunt Agatha

Really A Witch?

You Bet She Is.

She Is A Witch.

Uh...Uh, Thanks,

But, Um, Could You

Not Do That, Please?

I Don't Have

Any Spare Change.

I-I'll Take Plastic,

Dollars, Lighters, Yen,

Lira, Simoleons,

Loonies.

Be Sure To Brush Afterwards.

Don't Forget To Floss.

What's This?

It's Pineapple!

What Will I Do

With Pineapple?

I Hate Pineapple!

If They Come Anywhere

Near This House,

I'll Take Care

Of Them, Too.

Aunt Agatha Had

A Twin Sister...

Sophia.

She Was Never

Nice To Her.

Ow!

Careful, Now.

They're Hot.

Mmm.

Mmm.

As Far Back

As I Can Remember,

Aunt Sophia Was Just

So Kind And Generous,

And I Really Miss Her,

And These Cookies

Are Her Recipe.

Cinnamon--Her Favorite.

We Always Baked Them

Together.

What Happened

To Aunt Sophia?

Well, About Seven Years Ago,

Aunt Sophia Met A Nice Man,

And They Got Engaged,

And I Guess They Must Have

Run Off Together.

Didn't She Call

Or Write?

No. That Was

The Strange Part.

No One Ever Heard From

Or Saw Her Again.

[Doorbell Rings]

I'll Get It.

Your Dad's In The Back.

She's Trapped

In That Weird House.

The Gravedigger

Was Right.

Bernard Brewster,

Real-Estate Division,

National General Bank.

You Must Be Mrs. Farmer.

So Glad To Meet You.

What Can I Do For You?

Since Foreclosure's Monday,

I Thought I'd Take A Peek.

This Must Be

The Living Room.

Bernard Brewster,

Real-Estate Division,

National General Bank.

Did You Decorate Yourself?

Nothing Paint Won't Fix.

You Can't Come In!

Did You Call?

It'll Look Bigger

When The Toys

Are Cleared Out.

What Do You Mean,

Cleared Out?

Hey, Aren't You Two Cute?

Two...Cute.

Ha Ha Ha!

I Think I'm Seeing Double.

That's It. Out.

Hey, What's Your Problem?

Out!

Give Me A Break.

The Bank Isn't

Giving Me Breaks.

Don't Come Back

Without An Appointment.

[Car Engine Starts]

Family Conference Time.

So, What All

That Stuff Means

Is...Because We've

Had These Problems

Making The Payments,

The Bank Wants To

Take Back The House

And Sell It.

Daddy Won't

Let That Happen.

Why Didn't

You Tell Us?

We're Supposed

To Share Problems.

Yeah,

Everybody Says So--

Phil Donahue, Oprah...

Sally Jessy,

Larry King.

They Get The Point.

We Didn't Want

You To Worry.

We Were Hoping We'd

Get The Money Soon.

We Even Tried Asking

Aunt Agatha For A Loan.

If Only Aunt Sophia

Were Here.

We Don't Want

To Leave.

Where Will We Go?

Hey! Hey!

We'll Figure

Something Out.

We'll Improvise.

I Don't Want You

To Worry.

We'll Be Fine.

And Tomorrow,

You'll Go

Trick-Or-Treating

With The Rest

Of The Kids.

And Monday, We'll Do

The Best We Can.

Remember That

We're A Family.

We'll Be Fine.

We Love You.

There's Nothing

To Be Afraid Of.

O.K.?

We Love You, Too.

Well, That's All

That Matters.

Good Night,

Sweet Pea.

Mm-Muh!

Good Night, Baby.

We Are So Lucky

To Have Those Two.

You're Telling Me.

And I'm Telling You,

Something's

Going To Happen

To Save This House.

I'm Still Worried

That Lynn

Is Frustrated

With Being A Twin.

It's Making Her

Bossy To Kelly.

It's Starting

Arguments

Between Them.

I'm Not Sure

How To Handle It.

Kids Always

Fight A Little.

As For This Twin Thing,

They Just Want

To Be Recognized

As Individuals.

That's Fair Enough.

It's Hard For Twins,

Though.

Well, Kids Are Stronger

Than We Think.

They'll Get Over It.

I Don't Know.

Agatha Never Did.

Hmm.

Are You Asleep?

Are You Nuts?

We've Been In This House

Since We Were Young.

Norman's Been Here

Since He Was A Puppy.

I Wish Aunt Agatha

Would Give

Mom And Dad Money.

If Aunt Sophia

Were Free,

She'd Help

Mom And Dad.

We Have To Get

The Moonstone.

And Free Aunt Sophia.

Do YOU BELIEVE

IN MAGIC?

Well, I'm Open

To The Idea.

If We Go To

The Witches'

Gathering,

We Can Get

The Moonstone.

We Don't Know

How To Get There.

You Said

You Believed

In Magic.

I'm Open

To The Idea.

I Didn't Say I'd

Go To A Witches'

Gathering.

We'll Improvise.

We Should

Explain This

To Mom And Dad.

Oh, Yeah, Right.

"I'll Let You Stay Up

Until Midnight

And Break The Spell."

I Can Just Imagine

Them Saying That.

Maybe They Can Help Us

Figure It Out.

We'll Do This

On Our Own.

I Guess So.

If We Disappear

Like Aunt Sophia,

I'll Sure Miss Norman.

Norman, We're

Going On A Scary

And Dangerous

Mission Tomorrow.

If We Don't

Come Back,

Take Care

Of Mom And Dad.

Have You Finished

The Task,

But Not Before

Telling Those Twins

Something To Which

They Shouldn't

Be Privy?

Don't Lie!
