JADE
Where do we go from here? How do we get out of this
horrible place.
JACKIE CHAN
This seems to be the main corridor. Let's hope it
leads to a back staircase and the way out.
RAPHAEL
That is if we find it. Who knows where in this manor
house we are.
JACKIE CHAN
We're on the 2nd Floor now so let's stay calm, no panic,
stay together and keep looking for the secret exit.
NINJARA
Ok, if you say so Chan.
But as they begin making their way down the hallway suddenly
Ralph spots something wierd down another corridor.
RAPHAEL
What on earth?!
JADE
Whoa, check this out.
JACKIE & NINJARA
HUH, WHAT? <Both turn around>
They stare down another hallway that appears to strech
forever into oblivion, never ending with closed doors on both
sides. Chandeliers from above do little to illuminate
the darkness but what catches their attention is a hovering
or floating candelabrum dancing from side to side in the middle
of the hallway.
NINJARA
Good grief! Why is that thing dancing around in midair?
RAPHAEL
Maybe some unseen person is carrying it down the hall.
JADE
Probably a spirit who cannot find his/her way in the dark.
JACKIE CHAN
Oh, that's a good one. <Frowns> C'mon let's keep
going. <Turns away>
Then suddenly loud noises emit from the corridor and something
seems to emerge from the shadows coming straight towards them!
JADE
Look out!
NINJARA
Aaaaaaaaugh!
RAPHAEL
Holy s***!
JACKIE CHAN
Quick, in this doorway!
They run into an open door just in time and hiding-cowering
inside the frame of the doorway they peer back outside.
Through the dimly lit mist of the upstairs corridor a haunted
suit of armor ran past the mortals laughing evilly as it swung
its sword & shield. Footsteps, screams, laughter,
groans, moans and the sounds of rattling chains chased the
figure down the hallway and faded into the darkness.
GHOST HOST
It's nice to see folks enjoying themselves...In my
home every room has wall to wall creeps...and hot & cold
running chills...hmhmhmhmmm...<Giggles>
The humans & mutants turned their backs on the corridor
and looked into the room towards the sound of their host's
voice. The candelabrum Chan held again mysteriously dimmed
and went out. They stood frozen with fright! They were
in the old conservatory - a room cluttered with decaying flowers
and plants. Broken windows in the room allowed them to
see the outside and there below was the private family cemetary. Even
though the rain was falling hard an un-natural fog choked
the gravestones. The rain was coming in through the broken
windows the air was dank and had a musty smell. The crow
flew in and perched atop a large box situated in the middle
of the room.
NINJARA <She hears strange noises>
What's that noise?
JACKIE CHAN
I'll light the candles. <Relights candleholder> There.
JADE
Aye-yi-yi! It's a coffin!
RAPHAEL
Something's trying to get out!
A pair of skeletal hands can be seen gripped around the
edges of the lid as the unseen victim within tries pushing
up on the lid, trying to free himself from the coffin or casket
as a frightened pleading voice calls from inside.
UNSEEN VICTIM
Let me out of here! Get me out of here!
CROW
You disturbed a guest, caw-caw! You'll be sorry for
that, caw-caw!
Chan, Ninjara, Raphael & Jade ran screaming out of
that room and back into the dark hallway. They passed
several closed doors as they continued towards the far end.
From each door they passed natural and un-natural sounds came
from within. Each sounded as though it were trying to
escape into the hall...doorknobs twisting, doorknockers clanking,
pounding sounds against the doors, crying-pleading voices
begging to be let out. The gang stand paralyzed with
terror unable to speak or move as the Ghost Host cautions
his visitors to be careful about giving themselves away to
the supernatural.
GHOST HOST
Whatever you do, don't betray your presence by screaming...Follow
my voice, come...You have active imaginations...that's good...
They went into another room dimly lit by flickering candles
and there an unusual seance was in session.
GHOST HOST
We are about to participate in a seance...Madame Leota
is assembling all spirits...they are just dying to meet you...hmhmhmahahahahaah...
Madame Leota the fortune teller medium was quite unique.
She was truly a disembodied spirit a mere talking head inside
a misty crystal ball. As she envoked the spirits objects
floated around the room in response to her commands.
MADAME LEOTA <Contacts the Spirit World>
Serpants and spiders, tail of a rat. Call in
the spirits wherever they're at! <Moans, cries fill the
air> Rap on a table, it's time to respond. Send us
a message from somewhere beyond. <Slow knocks on tables>
Goblins and ghoulies from last Halloween. Awaken the
spirits with your tamborine! <Tamborine rattles & shakes>
Creepies and crawlies, toads in a pond. Let there be
music from regions beyond. <Instruments play a haunting
tune> Wizards and witches wherever you dwell. Give
us a hint by ringing a bell! <Bell jingles & jangles>
As the friends watch transfixed in awe at the ghostly objects
floating about in midair and Leota calling out to the spirits
several green shimmering shapes appear out of nowhere, seem
to take on human forms.
NINJARA
Chan, something's moving there in the corner.
JACKIE CHAN
It looks like smoke. Here's another one.
RAPHAEL
They sure look real to me, or movie magic special effects.
JADE
Un-cool if you ask me. I don't like this.
GHOST HOST
Come now, we must leave this cozy little circle...For
the spirits have received your sympathetic vibrations and
are beginning to materalize...
