[eerie music]

NARRATOR:Collinwood in present time.

A house filled with mystery and intrigue.

For a while Barnabas Collins tries

to stop the disaster he knows is to happen,

two children have discovered a secret world.

A world populated by the dead.

And this night, they learn.

David, look!

The dolls, they're gone!

DAVID: They were there.

HALLIE: But we haven't left the room!

Spirits keep coming in and out of here, taking things.

And we can't even see them!

Why, David, why?

I don't know.

But let's get out of here!

CARRIE: Hallie.

It's Carrie.

CARRIE: Don't go.

They're ready now.

We don't want to see!

CARRIE: You must.

Look in the house.

In Rose Cottage.

You asked what would happen to you.

Find out.

Find out.

You must know.

Look through the window.

Look through the window.

See, David?

See, Hallie?

Now you know what's to happen to you.

Now you know.

[tense music]

[ominous music]

David, come away from there!

Don't look in there again!

Doesn't matter whether we look in here or not.

HALLIE: But how did we get in there?

Sitting at that table?

I don't know.

What does it all mean?

It's.

It's what's going to happen to us.

HALLIE: You mean we're going to be trapped in there?

Forever.

Oh David, what are we going to do?

DAVID: We can't do anything.

We must!

DAVID: We've tried to tell.

We tried to burn the dolls.

We tried to run away.

They just won't let us!

Oh, don't cry.

We've got to try and tell someone.

We can't.

David.

Barnabas and Dr. Hoffman are still reading those books.

Maybe they'll find out something without us telling them.

You don't want them to.

Yes, I do.

Well, you don't act as if you do!

Maybe I just know that it's something

that you can't change.

Don't say that, David.

[gentle music]

The music.

The music, Hallie, listen.

It won't make me feel any better.

Yes, it will.

I'm not afraid anymore.

Honest.

Maybe it won't be so bad at Rose Cottage.

You know, we might even like it there.

David?

Hallie?

Music.

Listen to the music, Hallie.

Maybe you wouldn't feel so bad if you did.

The music makes you understand.

HALLIE: About Rose Cottage?

We won't be alone there.

I know that now.

Who will be with us?

Gerard?

Or Daphne or Tad and Carrie?

Others too.

What do you mean?

Just come and listen.

No!

You'd better come and listen.

They want you to listen.

Come and do it, Hallie.

Where can that be coming from?

David!

Oh.

I've been looking for you.

What are you doing up here?

I was looking for Hallie.

And why would Hallie be here?

I don't know.

She likes to explore the house sometimes.

Well, she's probably the one who's playing the music.

- Let's find her. - Music?

Oh, David, you must hear it.

I think it's a radio.

What?

Yes, it's coming from the other wing.

Somebody just has a window open.

Anyway, why would Hallie come here to play music?

I don't know, but we're going to find out.

Hallie!

I don't think she came here this time.

I've looked all over the place.

David, you are not supposed to be in this wing.

You know that.

Yes, I know that.

Yes.

Yes, I know.

I know.

Where could Hallie be?

Oh, she'll turn up someplace.

David,

with Maggie sick, the two of you

really should be more considerate

and not go wandering out without telling me.

We will be, Carolyn.

Is Maggie feeling better?

I wanna go and look in on her.

And don't you go disappearing again.

It's nearly your bedtime.

Hallie.

Hallie, where have you been?

I was in the kitchen.

I was hungry.

CAROLYN: I looked there.

HALLIE: Well, I was in the pantry once.

I heard someone come in.

Well, you and David get ready for bed.

I'll come in and say goodnight.

You were right about the music.

I feel different.

I knew you would.

And I know what we must do tomorrow.

What?

HALLIE: Something very important.

And very special.

Tell me.

Tomorrow, David.

Tomorrow you will know soon enough.

[eerie music]

You'll have to do it, David,

because, my wrist still hurts.

Do I have to?

David, Gerard wants it to be done.

Now you do what I told you to do,

and I'll be back in a little while.

Lock the door after I leave so no one will catch you.

I'll be back.

[door knocking]

DAVID: Hallie?

HALLIE: Yes.

DAVID: Did anybody see you?

Of course not.

Now, you'll have to cut this after I draw the outline.

Why?

Tell me why.

Cut along the lines after I'm finished.

It has to be done, David.

[ominous music]

CAROLYN: Are you sure you want the drapes drawn?

Yes.

CAROLYN: The sun is so warm today.

The light, it's so bright,

it hurts my eyes.

It's making my head ache.

Maggie.

Are you feeling worse?

Shall I get Julia?

No, no.

Did they call the police?

I don't know.

They certainly should have.

Remember, remember about a year ago,

there were att*cks like this.

How odd it is.

DAVID: Is this what you need?

Yes.

Why?

It draws on cloth.

Why do we have to make this doll?

HALLIE: David!

Don't worry, nobody will hear us.

Tell me.

You understand every single thing we're doing.

And I'm not gonna do another thing until you tell me.

The doll is going to be someone.

DAVID: Who?

Someone who's going to live with us in Rose Cottage.

DAVID: Who?

[door knocking]

Answer it.

Go on!

DAVID: It's you.

David.

May I come in?

- Sure. - Thank you.

Is Maggie Evans here?

Yes, she's here, but she's sick.

Well, what's wrong?

I don't know.

Nobody ever tells us anything.

I'll go upstairs and see, and maybe she'll see you.

David.

I also came to see you.

Now I have something to tell you.

I don't know if you can understand this.

I really can't do your horoscope.

At least not right now.

DAVID: All right.

SEBASTIAN: But David, yesterday you said--

That was yesterday.

SEBASTIAN: But you wanted to know

so much about the future.

No.

It's not important.

I'll go see if Carolyn is coming soon.

SEBASTIAN: David!

There's no point in knowing the future.

It's just gonna happen anyway.

Hello, Mr. Shaw.

SEBASTIAN: Hello, Mrs. Hawkes.

How's Maggie?

I, uh, I'm not sure it would be

a good idea for Maggie to see you.

She really isn't herself.

Well, what's wrong with her?

You see, she was, she was bitten.

By what?

CAROLYN: By an animal.

Animal?

CAROLYN: In the woods.

Mrs. Hawkes, I think you'd better tell me more about this.

I really don't understand.

Let's go in here.

HALLIE: What took you so long?

I had to come up on the back stairs.

Come on, you have to draw a face on this.

Whose face do I have to draw?

I don't know, I honestly don't.

When will we know who's gonna be with us at Rose Cottage?

Soon, David.

Very soon.

[tense music]

Dr. Hoffman doesn't understand

what kind of animal it could have been.

Neither do I.

Was she bitten anywhere else besides the neck?

No.

I don't understand why she's not getting better.

She's been given blood transfusions.

What else does Dr. Hoffman say?

CAROLYN: Well, that if Maggie remains calm

and stays in bed, she'll be all right.

But it seems to be affecting her.

I won't say her mind, but her spirit, certainly.

She seems so depressed.

Yes.

That doesn't surprise you?

Oh.

Oh, it's just the shock, I suppose.

That girl, that little.

CAROLYN: Hallie.

Yes, did she tell Maggie that I was here?

That I came to see her?

But Maggie doesn't want to see me.

She really isn't very well.

SEBASTIAN: Don't make up excuses, Mrs. Hawkes.

CAROLYN: All right, I won't.

No, she didn't.

Well, why don't you tell Maggie to get well soon from me.

And I'll come and call on her later.

Um, why don't you telephone first?

In other words, you don't think

she'll see me then, either.

I don't know.

Well, you tell Maggie that I don't give up that easily.

Not on anything.

Finished.

It even looks like her a little.

Like her?

I thought you didn't know who it was!

Like, like.

DAVID: Tell me who it is!

Come on!

Like Leticia.

Leticia?

Who is Leticia?

I don't know.

But we will know soon.

Come, David.

We've got to go to the playroom now.

[creepy music]

How do you know so much?

I just do, that's all.

Put it in the house.

Do you want to live in Rose Cottage all by yourself?

Sebastian really was so disappointed

that he couldn't see you, Maggie.

You sure you don't want to see him?

You haven't heard a word I've said.

I have to get up.

No, no, Julia says you mustn't.

No!

No, Carolyn, I have to get up.

Well, let me straighten your bed for you, Maggie.

You'll be much more comfortable.

Carolyn, what time is it?

Uh.

It's five past seven.

- I've got to leave. - Maggie!

Maggie, you mustn't.

Let me finish your bed.

You'll be much more comfortable.

[dog barking and howling]

[gentle music]

[Carolyn humming]

What's, what is that?

What?

You were humming a tune.

[laughs] Was I?

It was lovely.

Maybe we shouldn't have done it.

Anybody who goes in that room is gonna know Gerard.

David, do you wanna live there alone?

You'll be there.

You were the one who said this morning

that we wouldn't be alone there!

You were happy.

I don't know.

I like all these people in the house.

David, we did the right thing.

[foreboding music]

Maggie.

Maggie, please sit down. You shouldn't even be up.

No, I don't feel like it.

I see no reason why I should stay here!

Carolyn, what was that tune you were humming?

I think I remember it.

[Carolyn humming]

[gentle music]

This room.

I can't be here.

Why am I here?

How can this be?

There is no room.

This doesn't exist.

It doesn't!

That music.

Who wants me?

Who called me here?

[eerie music]
