bad for people like that.

I go and hunt

till I find her.

I don't think

it'll do much good.

Well, let's separate

and continue the search,

anyway.

Hello, wait.

Wait!

Hey!

Hey!

No! No! No!

Miss Walsh!

Miss Walsh!

May I stay here with you,

where there's light?

I'm so afraid

of the night and

the darkness.

Of course you may.

But where have you been?

Dr. Halsey and the others

have been looking for you.

Why did you run away

after Dr. Cooper was killed?

Why are you so afraid?

I don't know.

If only it would

help me find myself.

I remember

being brought here

to this tent.

I was very happy.

Then he came

to take me away.

Who came to

take you away?

The High Priest of Arkam.

You're just upset

from your experience

tonight.

You'll be all right

after you've rested.

Uh!

Aaah!

What's happened,

Miss Walsh?

Oh, Ragheb, we must

find Dr. Halsey!

The mummy...

The mummy took

the girl away.

The mummy?

You mean you've really

seen him?

Yes, and that strange girl

you were looking for.

She came to my tent,

and then the mummy came

and took her away.

You were

searching the swamp

with Dr. Halsey.

You've got to

help me find him.

He's not far from

here, Miss Walsh.

I will guide you.

Oh, thank you, Ragheb.

What's happened, Goobie?

Where's Miss Walsh?

I don't know,

Master Halsey.

I done hear

a funny noise

a little while ago,

and when I run out here,

this tent was torn down.

Miss Betty's

sure enough

disappeared.

The mummy.

Mummy?

Do you think he take

the boss's niece?

Looks that way, Goobie.

I'm gonna follow those tracks.

You wake up Mr. Walsh and

tell him.

Master Walsh!

Master Walsh!

Get up! Get up!

What's the matter?

What's the matter, Goobie?

The mummy's on the loose!

He's dancin' with the devil.

What are you

talking about?

They done broke in

Miss Walsh's tent

and carried her away.

What?

Yes, sir.

Wake up Achilles

and the boys.

I'll get dressed.

Yes, sir.

How much farther is it?

Right up there.

Our prayers to

the mighty Amon-Ra have

been answered, Kharis.

The Princess Ananka

shall be lifted

from her mortal state

and sealed in this case,

and shall be returned

with you to Egypt,

there to be embraced

by the sands of the past.

Where is Dr. Halsey,

Ragheb?

He is not here.

But you told me he...

This monastery

has been abandoned for

nearly 100 years.

Ragheb!

The curse of Amon-Ra

upon you, Ragheb.

Dr. Zandab!

Those robes!

You're, you're...

The High Priest of Arkam.

Your tongue shall be torn

from your mouth,

for the vows you have

sworn to... falsely!

Master, I am

but flesh and blood.

You have betrayed

your trust!

The secret of

Kharis and his bride,

Princess Ananka

cannot be preserved,

unless...

...this girl dies.

No, Master.

The vultures will pick

the flesh from your bones,

after Kharis learns

of your treachery.

I, too, know the secret

of the tana leaves.

Without the brew,

Kharis is powerless.

Enough!

Aaah!

Jim!

Betty, what happened?

He brought me here.

I was looking for you.

Master,

I meant no harm.

Betty!

Are you hurt?

No.

I'll get you

back to camp.

Ilzor.

He's dead.

What was he doing here?

Look out, Jim!

No, Kharis. No!

If you destroy me,

the secret of the

tana leaves will die.

Jim! Jim!

Are you

all right, Betty?

Yes, but a little

shaken up, Uncle Pat.

Say, what on earth's

been going on in here?

The wing collapsed.

Buried Ragheb and

the mummy.

Master Halsey!

Master Halsey!

What is it, Goobie?

I don't know, boss,

but it ain't human!

Now I understand why

she knew so much about Kharis

and the ancient Egyptians.

What are you

talkin' about?

This mummy is the girl

we brought to the camp.

She's the Princess Ananka.

Sure, and I'm

her grandfather.

We'll put a crew of men

together digging Kharis

out of the rubble,

then send them both

back to the Scripps Museum.

They oughta put you

on display, too.

Well, maybe you'll clear out

of the swamps now

and leave me alone

so I can get

a little work done.

Oh, I'll get out.

But you haven't seen

the last of me yet, Mr. Walsh.

There's a certain

secretary...

You're welcome to her.

Go ahead!

Thanks.

Thanks.

Well, as a secretary,

you haven't been

any use to me

since the minute

he walked in on us.

Bernard Schubert (January 1, 1895 – August 4, 1988) was an American screenwriter and television producer during the early sound era of film and early days of television. From 1931 through 1948 he was involved in the scripts for 25 films. Two of his more notable films were Peck's Bad Boy (1934), for which he co-wrote the screenplay with Marguerite Roberts, and which starred Jackie Cooper; and 1944's The Mummy's Curse, starring Lon Chaney Jr..
