come in.
Sleep all by myself.
Must be neat.
Chuck! Chuck!
Am I dreaming or am I awake? You're awake.
Couldn't I be dreaming but you're
saying I'm awake? What's the matter?
What's wrong?
Then I'm dreaming.
My room changed into a gambling
joint. That's ridiculous.
Chuck-a-luck.
Slot machines.
C'mon, c'mon!
Let me see this.
Well? There was a roulette table there.
If I'm dreaming, then I dreamt
it. If I'm awake, I saw it.
You're letting your
imagination run away.
this. I'm not that clever.
All right, the room is
full of roulette tables!
I like roulette tables.
I like to sleep on 'em.
No, no.
That was a dice board.
I wanna get some sleep.
You go in my room and sleep.
I'll sleep in here. Is
that all right? Okay.
Now what's wrong?
I forgot the rest
of my clothes.
Sleep tight.
Go to sleep!
Ohh! Ohh! Ohh!
Aaah! Aaah!
Chuck, Chuck, chuck!
Chuck!
It happened in your room
now, the whole thing. What?
Dice. Chuck-a-luck.
Roulette tables. All right.
They got a slot machine. Put in
a quarter, pull and hit a jackpot.
Wait a minute!
into one of your frenzies!
What frenzies? I ain't
making frienzies with nobody!
C'mon on. Chuck, let's get outta here.
No, don't take me back.
Chuck, don't.
Chuck, don't.
I'm telling you,
the whole room...
What?
Now what's wrong?
What's wrong in here? It did it again.
Nothing has happened! Yeah, yeah.
Do me a favor
and stop this nonsense.
Get in bed
and stay there.
Yip, yip, yip.
I know
the room changed.
A lot of things
around here.
Chuck! Chuck!
See that?
The whole...
Did you ever
see anything like that?
All right. I'll get you another
room. I'm gonna get my own room.
You seem very busy, Doctor. Huh?
Don't tell me
you make your own milk.
What are you doing?
Huh?
I suppose if I was to tell you the
house was on fire, you'd say, "huh?"
Hand me that
blue bottle, please.
What's on fire? Nothing. Not a thing.
You're the "concentratingest" man
I ever met. I'm analyzing the water.
We're surrounded by murder and all
you do is calmly analyze the water!
Are you worried? Oh... I don't know.
You don't strike me as
the nervous type. Don't I?
I'll bet you have perfect
20/20 vision. Thanks.
Well, don't you?
Is it important?
Actually, would you prefer
a girl with healthy eyes...
to a girl with pretty eyes
who's blind as a bat?
Without those portholes,
you probably can't see.
I noticed you had beautiful eyes
the first time I saw you.
I didn't mention it then. Mention it now.
Well, they're...
soft and limpid...
like two pools
of water.
Water?
Oh!
My glasses, please.
I suppose your silly
experiment couldn't wait...
could it?
Huh?
Oh... "huh" yourself!
In fact, you're the most
beautiful girl I ever...
Huh?
C-C-Come in.
Come in!
Who is it?
Come in.
Who is it?
Who is it?
Yes?
Locked.
Chuck!
Hey, Chuck.
Oh, Chuck.
Chuck. Chuck. What are you
doing here? What happened?
Did you knock on my door? Did
you lock it? No, certainly not.
Well, it's locked. I'm
scared to death. It's locked?
It's locked?
C'mon!
No, no, no.!
C'mon.!
The door is locked.
Is this another one of your
brainstorms? You try to open it.
See?
I know that door was locked. Aw, nonsense!
What is this all about?
Get a load of this mess!
What's come over you
all of a sudden?
Don't give me any arguments.
Look around here.
You don't... Never mind
that. A fine time to play.
What is this? You
wouldn't do this at home.
And this place is just
as much mine as it is yours.
You don't... Don't ever do this again.
You oughta be ashamed.
Now clean it up!
Hey, Chuck?
Don't ever pull
a knife on me!
Norma, are you asleep? No.
Didn't that warm milk
make you sleepy?
Didn't have any.
Then maybe we should? I
don't want any. You have some.
The doctor's still there,
isn't he?
- His body is.
- B-B-Body?
Yeah. His mind
is miles away!
Norma, don't do that.
Don't play games.
I don't feel so well.
Excuse me.
Aaah!
Aaah.!
What was that?
What happened?
What is it?
What's wrong?
What were you screaming about? A ghost.
A ghost?
A ghost?
With fangs.
Again?
Hello, Chuck. Did you
come back to apologize?
You don't have to.
I forgive you.
Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey-hey!
He's in my room, in my bed.
Pulling covers over his head.!
Hey!
Wait!
What's the matter? I'm afraid to
have you go up there... without me.
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon!
Hurry up.
There's your ghost.
Just as
I thought!
This couldn't be a joke,
could it?
Everything seems to happen to you!
Except what happened to Smitty.
Camille, I was laying on the bed
and... Oh, excuse me.
Whoever's doing this
isn't fooling.
They're obviously trying
to get us out of the house.
Where are those detectives?
If that scream...
Maybe they're...
Let's find out. You
girls get ready to leave.
You and I will find
the detectives.
Come on, Chuck. Come on, Camille.
Too bad I can't finish this
experiment. I'm onto something.
Chuck, let's go back
to the gas station.
The doctor and I are gonna
search the cellar and the grounds.
You sit here and wait
for the girls. All alone?
Yes. Here's a road map. Find the
easiest way out. That's a good idea.
Chuck, suppose the ghost comes
back? The ghost is a rumor.
I don't care
if he's the landlord.
Sit down.
Don't get excited.
If you want me, holler
"Oh, Chuck" and I'll come.
Oh, Chuck!
What kept you?
I came like that! If you can get in
here in between that, you get here.
Take it easy.
Read that map.
When I call, "Oh, Chuck,"
get in here. All right.
Now I'm... all alone.
Oh, Chuck.
Oh, Chuck?
Oh, Chuck?
Oh, Chuck!
Oh, Chuck!
Get in here!
Oh, Chuck! Oh, Chuck! I'm here.
Hey, come off it.
I called 42 "Oh, chucks"
and you didn't come in.
I came in as soon as
you hollered "Oh, Chuck. "
Don't wait for me to say "Oh,
Chuck. " Get in here on the "oh. "
You're excited. Are you ready to leave?
I was ready when he put
the key in the front door.
Camille, sit down
and keep Ferdie company.
Help him read
this map.
Thanks, Camille...
for keeping me company.
I do so want
not to be alone.
Take this map and see
if you can find a road out.
If we take Route 72...
we could cut through
the forest.
Then we could take a back
road and as soon as we...
Oh, oh, oh, Ch... Ch...
Oh, Ch... Ch... Ch...
Ch... Ch... Ch...
Oh... Ch-Ch-Chuck?
Oh, Chuck!
Yes, yes, yes.
Oh, Chuck!
Just a minute.
Don't get excited.
Wait a minute.
That candle moved?
Camille, did you see that candle move? No!
Where were you looking?
At the map.
Never mind the map.
Keep your eye on that candle.
That's ridiculous. That
candle can't move. No?
You want me to find the
detectives, don't you?
Now find a road outta
here. I'll find a road.
Now, don't call me. I'll find
a road if I have to make one.
Are you sure you didn't
see that candle move? Uh-uh.
I know that went...
