[Commentators Chattering]

Hi.
Hello.

My name is Ellie Grimbridge.
I know. Dan Challis.

I know.
One of the nurses told me
I could find you here.

I saw you at the funeral.
Thank you.

I'm sorry about your father.

Did my father say anything
to you the night he died?

Yeah. He, uh...
Yeah.

He said,
"Tell Ellie I love her."

[Sighs]
Well,

you're a bad liar,
but thank you anyway.

Wait a second.

I saw something that night.
I don't know.

Your father came
into the hospital.

I thought he was crazy,
out of his mind.

He's hangin' on
to a Halloween mask.
He wouldn't let it go.

And what he said was...
"They're gonna kill us all."

And in a little while, he was dead.

I don't know
what the hell is goin' on.

[Bell Rings,
Door Creaking]

Papa really loved this place,

but business was getting bad.

I suppose you shopped
at the new mall
like everybody else, huh?

The kids were keeping him going.
They'd come in after school.

He'd let 'em play with stuff
right in the aisles like I used to
when I was little.

The question is,
why would anybody
wanna kill Papa?

He was a wonderful man.
He...

I've been doing
some detective work.

My father kept
excellent records.

"October 18:
Merchants council meeting."
He was there. I checked.

"October 19: Football game."
He was there too.

"October 20:
Pick up more masks."

[Challis]
Yeah.

That's the kind
your father had in his hand.

"October 21:
Dinner with Minnie."

Minnie Blankenship.
He never showed up.

He never called.
You've been busy.

I think my father ran
into trouble...

somewhere between here
and Santa Mira.

Santa Mira?
Where they make those.

Oh.
Little place.
Not too far away.

Maybe they know something.

I'm not going back to L.A.
Until I find out
what happened to my father.

Linda, I can't get out of it.
I'm really sorry. I...

- You're gonna sit around...
- No, it's just a bunch of doctors...

talking about boring stuff.

- The kids don't even remember your name!
- Linda, take it easy.

I'll be back to take 'em trick or

- Tell me where you're going to stay.
- No, I can't remember the name.

Listen.

Santa Mira founded in 1887,
farming community.

Grew up around a large dairy.

After World War II,
a wealthy Irishman, Conal Cochran,

converted it into a toy factory...
Silver Shamrock Novelties.

Now given over to the manufacture
and sale of Halloween masks.

Largest in the world.

Proud community.
Predominantly Irish.

[Challis] How about this?

We go back to that gas station,

We could pose as a couple of buyers
and maybe rent rooms in that motel.

We'd have some place to talk
without the whole town watching.
Good point.

[Bell Dings]

Good evening to you.

Say, partner,
is there a vacancy in this motel?

My wife and I need
a place to stay.
You've come to the right place.

Mrs. Smith.

Sure, I believe
she's resting just now.

It didn't take you long
to get here, Mr. Challis.

Dr. Challis, I should say.

It'll be morning soon.

Halloween morning.

It'll be a very busy day
for me.

Being a medical man,
you should find it quite interesting.

[Inhales, Exhales Sharply]

The surprising thing is that
the internal components
were quite simple to produce, really.

The outer features
took much longer to perfect.

But then, of course, in the end
it's just another form
of mask making.

- [Sneezes]
- Bless you.

Convincing, aren't they?
Loyal and obedient,

unlike most human beings.

Those who went before me,
you know, they...

they never dreamed
of anything like this.

What is this place?
Can't you tell?

Advanced and...

ancient technology.

[Chuckling]
A good magician never explains.

Come on, then.

You've still got time
to figure it out all by yourself.

From an ancient
sacrificial circle.

Stonehenge.

[Chuckling]

We had a time
getting it here.

You wouldn't believe how we did it.

[Laughs]

It has a power in it.

A force.

Even a... particle.

Devastating.

Oh, Doctor,
you asked about the girl.

Where is she?

Right in there.

And your friend, Miss Guttman.
[Challis]
You killed her.

Oh, no. Miss Guttman
was the victim of a misfire.

The others...

What you really need to see
is a demonstration,

and there's one coming right up.

[Buddy]
Mr. Cochran will be right along.

[Betty]
I don't like this place.
It gives me the creeps.

[Buddy Jr.]
I have to go to the bathroom.

Mommy!
Relax a minute,
will you?

Mr. Cochran'll be here.
Then everything will be fine.

He just wants my opinion about
some television commercials
or something.

You know, I still can't figure out
why they won't take my orders
for next year.

You know how I like to work ahead,
and, well, they're just not interested.

Maybe they're not going
to have Halloween next year.
Ha, ha, ha.

All right, roll it.

Enjoy the "Horrorathon," Doctor.

And don't forget to watch
the big giveaway afterwards.

Why, Cochran? Why?

Do I need a reason?

Mr. Kupfer was right, you know.
I do love a good joke.

And this is the best ever.
A joke on the children.

But there's a better reason.

You don't really know much
about Halloween.

You thought no further than
the strange custom...

of having your children wear masks
and go out begging for candy.

It was the start of the year
in our old Celtic lands,

and we'd be waiting...

in our houses
of wattles and clay.

The barriers would be down,
you see,

between the real and the unreal.

And the dead
might be looking in...

to sit by our fires of turf.

Halloween.

The festival of Samhain.

The last great one
took place 3,000 years ago,

and the hills ran red...

with the blood
of animals and children.

Sacrifices?

It was a part of our world,
our craft.

Witchcraft?
To us, it was a way
of controlling our environment.

It's not so different now.

It's time again.

In the end, we don't decide
these things, you know.

The planets do.

They're in alignment,

and it's time again.

The world's going
to change tonight, Doctor.

I'm glad you'll be able to watch it.

And...

happy Halloween.

[Beeping]

Cochran.
[Man, Indistinct]
