Tell me a story first.
I'm too sleepy.
Please!
All right.
"Once upon a time,
near a big forest,"
"lived a woodcutter"
"with his wife and 2 children,."
"Hansel and Gretel."
"They were very poor"
"and when the famine came,"
"they could get no
more daily bread."
"One night, the woodcutter
said to his wife,"
"'How are we to
feed our poor children"
"'when we have
nothing for ourselves?'"
Mr. Benton, I must get
through to her tonight.
You've a very strong
aura tonight, Mrs. Forrest.
It's very, very purple.
Is that good?
Purple is the color of desire.
It means your needs are great.
Yes, I need to speak
to Katharine tonight.
I need to speak to her about
something very important.
Katharine! If you hear me,
come to us, Katharine.
Katharine,
Katharine, in the
far distance of the unknown,
come to your dear mama.
Come to your mother, Katharine.
Katharine!
I'm not getting
through to the other side.
Oh, please, Mr. Benton,
please! Keep trying.
Perhaps something
belonging to the departed,
some object imbued
with her vibrations.
Well...
Oh, what about her
little teddy bear?
Ah.
Shall I hold it in my lap?
No, no! Let it join the circle.
Now,
Let us join hands.
Katharine!
Katharine, we're calling you.
Katharine, if you
hear me, come to us.
Katharine.
Listen to your little bear.
Katharine.
Katharine, come through to us.
Katharine,
Katharine, I'm calling you.
Katharine, we ask you to
come through to us.
Katharine, if you hear me,
make yourself known.
Come to us,
Katharine.
Katharine, with the vibrations
of your little bear,
speak to us if you can.
Please, darling, please
come through tonight.
We are waiting.
Katharine,
Katharine, we are
calling, Katharine.
So many voices trying
to get through to us.
At times they
cannot find their way.
Be patient, Katharine
will come through to us.
Come to us, Katharine.
Come to your mother.
Katharine.
Mummy.
I'm here, darling. I'm here.
I see children.
girls in the house tonight?
Yes, my darling.
It's our Christmas party.
I wish them to
enjoy a Christmas party.
Do you hear me?
This is Katharine, Mummy.
This is Katharine.
Why don't you come to me?
I am very close, mummy.
I can almost see you.
Yes, my darling child.
Let me see you.
Let me hold you again.
Mummy, I feel close to you,
but I have to leave now.
No!
Goodbye, mummy.
No, don't go yet!
Don't go, Katharine.
Goodbye.
Stay and talk to me, darling.
Bye.
Bye.
Oh, Katharine, baby!
Don't leave me!
I need you so! Please.
Katharine. Katharine.
We are calling, Katharine.
Speak to us.
Katharine.
No. No, darling.
Don't be naughty
tonight, Katharine.
Mummy has to talk to you about
something very important.
Darling...
Oh, Katharine.
Oh, Katharine,
my baby! At last, Katharine!
Katharine!
It's Katy, it's not Katharine!
No!
I heard talking.
They were calling.
Oh, yes, of course.
It's Katy, it's not
Katharine. It's Katy.
I used to have a teddy bear
like that named William.
Please, may I have
him sleep with me?
It's not my Katharine,
it's Katy.
Please, it's just like William.
All right, Katy,
But just for tonight.
I'd better get you to bed.
Mrs. Forrest, perhaps
we might, uh, settle...
Oh, yes, of course.
Excuse me, I...
I'm sorry we
didn't succeed to...
Perhaps you did.
Perhaps you did,
more than you know.
Thank you, Mr. Benton.
Thank you.
A-and,
you know, you really
are... are a marvel.
The merriest of
Christmases to you.
And to you and to
yours, Mrs. Forrest.
To all of yours.
Goodnight. Goodnight, Albie.
Goodnight, madam.
We'll be seeing you, Albie.
See me now, you old soak.
What?
Oh, uh...
Slipped my mind.
Merry Christmas to you.
And a rotten New Year to you.
Christopher, what's the matter?
What is it, dear?
There's someone in that
room and the door's locked.
Why would anyone be in the service
room at this time of night?
And the door is never locked.
Well, go on in,
see for yourself.
You see, Christopher.
There's nothing.
Children! Children! Wake up!
Wake up! It's snowing!
And we have to get
dressed, and go downstairs
and have breakfast!
And then see what Father
Christmas has brought us.
Where's William?
Katy, there's something much more
marvelous for you this year.
But I want William!
Listen to me, my darling.
I've been thinking about
something all night long.
Do you like Aunt Roo's house?
Do you think you'd like to come
and live here with me always?
We'll have tea and
crumpets every single day
and we'll play games,
we'll have so much fun!
We have our fun together.
Christopher, Katy is
still a very little girl.
She needs a mother.
You know, there was
once a little girl,
very like you, who
lived in this house.
What happened to her?
She...
You think about it, all right?
Let me see your finger!
Hah.
Ooh,
It's so thin! What a
thin little finger!
Oh, you're so thin! I'm going
to have to fatten you up
with lots of goodies.
Ooh!
Let's hurry up! We're going
to miss all the fun!
Get dressed. Hurry!
"" 'A little
thin, ' the witch said,
"'but once I fatten her up,"
"'she'll make a dainty morsel.'"
Are you all here?
Are you all here?
Yes.
Is it now?
Wait and see.
What do you want?
I don't know.
Shh.
Merry Christmas.
It's Christmas day
and Christmas day
is for presents.
Come and see what Father
Christmas brought you!
Oh, aren't they beautiful?
I love children so!
It must've cost a lot
of money this year, madam.
What's the difference?
It's a dazzler, madam.
Prettiest tree we've ever had.
You did a beautiful job, Albie.
Ooh!
Don't fight, Don't fight.
Ooh, there are more toys.
There's more toys back here.
Thank you, Aunt Roo.
This pen is just what I wanted.
I'm so glad, Christopher.
Ooh!
Children, empty your stockings
and then play with your toys
and if you're
good, you can go out
and play in the
snow till dinnertime.
Can I guess what's for dinner?
All right, guess.
A big, fat Christmas goose!
No! A big, fat Christmas turkey!
And cranberry sauce?
Yes, cranberry sauce.
And chestnuts?
And chestnuts
and roast potatoes.
Katy, dear, come here.
I have a very special present
that I want to give you myself.
Now here.
A brand new William
for your very own.
Thank you, Aunt Roo,
but it's not like William.
Oh, he's better. He's all new!
He looks different.
But thank you, anyway.
Oh, Katy.
...On a bright winter's day
Shake hands
Before you leave her
You leave her
You leave her
I expect birds could
put their nest in
there, Christopher.
Yes, I expect they could.
Katy!
Katy, come here!
Look!
What is it?
This is Col. Forrest. Remember?
She said he was a magician.
This is all his magic stuff.
This is a magic cabinet.
Look.
Christopher.
Christopher!
Christopher!
It's all right, Katy.
Come back. It's only a trick!
Wouldn't it be nice to live
with Aunt Roo for always?
She likes you.
