It was Halloween Eve, and all through the mansion..
Many creatures were stirring in their own grizzly fashion.
Uncle Fester was hung in the closet upstairs.
Grandmama snoozed in her favorite chair.
Wednesday curled up, dreaming Halloween dreams.
Who's sleeping through here? Pugsly's glowing, chilling screams.
And Lurch settled in for his Halloween nap.
While Thing, dressed for bed, in his PJs and cap.
On goblins, On demons, On creatures of sin!
On Comet, on Cupid, on Donner
and Blitzen —
ohhH~!
It's almost that time for treating and tricking.
For haunting and scaring and screaming and picking.
And the night air was filled with horror and gloom.
As wolves outside howled at the moon.
It's the one time of year, when everything's right.
Happy Halloween to all.
And to all a good fright~!
Awoooooooo~!
Now!
At last!
It's heeeeeere~!
Happy Halloween!
It's the most wonderful time of the year!
Gomez, you'd think you were going to a funeral?
For you, my love, on this most festival of occasions.
Gomez...
Jewelry...
You shouldn't have.
Aren't you going to try them on?
You have the right to remain silent.
Tish, you know what the Miranda Rights do to me!
Anything you say, can and will be used against you...
in the court of love?
Cara mia~
Mon cher...
Whoaa —
Happy Halloweee~eee~en!
This is going to be the best Halloween dinner yet!
I wonder if we should kill it before we stuff it this year?
Nah, what would be the fun in that?
Aha!
So, we meet again.
Watch as I wipe that smile off your face.
Ha ha!
Perfect!
Darling, you have the soul of an artist and the touch of a demented surgeon.
Halloween always inspires me.
Isn't that right, Fester, old man?
Fester?
What are we bobbing for this year?
Grenades!
Look at the time! Shouldn't the children be out terrorizing the neighborhood?
They've been working on their costumes all day.
We're ready!
I can barely stand to look at you!
It's the most horrifying thing I've ever seen!
Two of history's most frightening and intimidating creatures.
There's nothing more unsettling than a critic.
Open the gate!
Okay, boss!
I think we've lost them, boss.
Hey, boss, you mad at me?
Mad?
Why would I be mad?
Duh!
'Cause I almost shot you back at the bankroom.
And then I lost the other bag of money.
And then I forgot to put gas in the getaway car.
And then I —
What was that for?
For being the stupidest human alive!
And that's for almost shootin' me!
That's 'cause I always wanted to hit a clown.
Cut it out, Dan!
Don't call me that!
Boss, you call me boss!
Sorry, sorry, Dan.
boss, boss!
I asked for a son, You give me the Village Idiot.
This place is swarmin' with cops.
We've gotta find a place to lay low till things cool down.
Now, remember, it's Halloween.
So the streets will be crawling with lunatics and psychopaths.
And here's a number where they can reach me.
Now, run along and scare the neighbors~
Look! Men in masks!
Our first Trick-or-Treaters!
Just stay back, pal. Don't you come any closer, okay?
They must be scared of your costume.
Very effective!
Don't be alarmed, they're just little children.
Don't hurry home!
Please, come in!
No thanks, we've got other plans.
Maybe we'll take you up on that.
Who decorated this place? Martha Stewart's Undertaker?
Why, yes.
He does nice work, doesn't he?
Hey, "Bigfooty", eaten any good books lately?
Welcome to our humble abode.
The name's Gomez Adams.
This is my lovely wife, Morticia.
How do you do?
Hey, nice makeup job, lady!
Put on another coat and we'll do some Kabuki Theatre.
Ahhhhhhh!
Boy, you people sure go all out for Halloween.
How sweet of you to notice.
Ahhhhhh!
That's a pretty scary sound-effects tape you people got playin'.
It's givin' me the chills.
Sound effects?
Fester, Mama.
We've got Trick-or-Treaters.
Hi there!
Sweet mother o' mercy, you're hideous!
Oh, come on.
You're embarrassing me.
A little bit too much chlorine in the gene pool, if you ask me.
Boss, these people are really creepin' me out. Let's go!
Go?
Why, we haven't given you any treats yet!
Where are my manners?
Lurch, their bag.
Hey, wait a minute. Give me that.
Hey.
Ayy karumba, it's full of money.
Kyle, just hand it back to me, okay? Don't ask any questions.
Morticia, our neighbors have given these
gentlemen hundreds of dollars in Trick-or-Treats!
It makes one proud to live in such a neighborhood.
We were just going to give you gummy bats.
My apologies, gentlemen.
Happy Halloween.
And don't spend it all in one place!
Would you excuse us just for a minute, please?
Take all the time you need.
Did you see that?
These people must be loaded!
Are you thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?
Never mind.
We're sittin' on a gold mine here.
And it's ours for the taking.
All right, everybody, hands up!
This is a hold-up robbery!
Oh, goody. My favorite game, robbery at gunpoint!
My turn. Stick 'em up!
Fester, how rude!
They're our guests.
Sorry about that. Fester loves to play.
So, you're playing "hold-up".
Right.
If you'll be as kind as to tell us where you keep your valuables.
No~ You'll have to beat it out of us.
There's no reason for anybody to get hurt here.
Awww!
Couldn't you at least pistol whip the ol' boy?
Otherwise, you'll hurt his feet.
I told you, lady! There ain't no reason for nobody to get hurt!
Nonsense. Lurch, will you get these men some rope?
We're not sayin' anything until you tie us up and behave like uncivilized criminals.
In homage to the '80s slasher genre.
How uninspired.
Didn't mean to scare you there, kids.
Just having a little Halloween fun.
Aren't we bad?
Now, what can we do for you?
You.. cuties!
We're here for the candy.
Well, let's hear the magic words.
Trick or treat?
Trick!
Excuse me?
You think we're just giving these boxes of raisins away?
Raisins?
No treats, till we get a trick!
It's your funeral.
Tighter!
I can still feel my feet.
What are you, some kind of sado-masochist?
Third degree black bell?
Okay.
For the last time.
Where do you keep your valuables?
Alright. The valuables are in the den. Upstairs and to the right.
Behind the portrait of Attila the Hun.
Okay. Now we're getting somewhere.
All right, let's go.
Come on, let's go. Get out of here.
Boss, I'm getting some bad vibes off this place.
Suddenly you're a psychic friend.
I think we should go.
Are you stupid?
That's a rhetorical question.
Listen to me, you dope. I've been robbing people my entire life.
And I have never had it this easy.
It's gonna be like taking candy from an ugly baby.
I did it to you all the time.
Whatever you say, boss.
Boss, did you hear that?
You're imagining things.
Darling, do you think we should have told them about the trap door?
And ruin the surprise?
Is anyone home?
Oh, they're home.
Keep trying.
They're hard of hearing.
I think we just landed in Madonna's rec room.
All these fun and games are making me hungry.
How's Halloween dinner, Mama?
The last time I saw him, hairy and angry.
What was that?
What was what?
Sorry, Dad!
Don't call me that!
Give me the candy, kid.
Heyy.. c'mon...
- Thanks for the candy, kid. Now beat it! - Ow!
Don't you feel guilty stealing candy from little children?
Actually, no. Not at all.
I respect that.
Now tell Pudgey over there to hand over the candy!
Pugsley.
See you later, losers.
What a jerk.
Yes, I liked him, too.
Ahhhh~!
I found that explosion predictable and gratuitous.
Really?
I gave it two thumbs up.
Does somebody wanna get shot?
I do. I do! I do!
Do you think I'm joking?
Do I look like a joking type person to you?
I finally found the safe, and all that was in it is this.. worthless vial!
Worthless?
Since when is a vial of Black Plague worthless?
D'ahhhhh!
Are you people nuts?
Are you nuts?
When I said I wanted your valuables, I meant..
Loot!
Narrow.
Greenbacks.
MONEY!
Ahhh, money.
Why didn't ya say so?
It's in the kitchen in a cookie jar.
Cookie jar..!
Yeah!
Cookie jar!
Where a buncha loonies'd hide their money!
Cookie jar!
Let's go, to the cookie jar!
Gomez, being tied up like this brings back so many memories.
Ahhh.. our honeymoon.
Cara mia...
Mon cher...
Whoa! I've never seen you too much loot in my entire life.
I can finally buy myself a pony!
I can finally divorce that hag you call a Mother!
And move to Tahiti with Bambi
You didn't hear that.
- We're rich! - We're rich! We're rich!
This game sucks.
Appalling!
What's taking them so long?
Poor dears probably can't find the loot.
Perhaps they can use our help.
Fester, Lurch. Let's split up and find our new friends!
What about me?
I believe you have a date with Dinner.
Ya... hooo!
Oh, my gosh. They must have escaped. They're after us!
Listen to me carefully, son.
The only way we're gonna get out here alive is for us to split up.
Hn, but dad?
I'm gonna take the loot and I, uh, I'll go.
I just don't want it to slow you down.
Y'know what I mean?
You'd do that for me?
You really do love me, don't you, dad?
Yeah.. whatever.
Come on, Dad. Say your words!
Those three little words that I've been wanting to hear all my life.
Okay.
You weren't adopted.
Ha ha... !
I love you too, Daddy~
I'll go this way.
So, you want to do it the hard way, do you?
I'm coming after you!
You tasty little beastie!
Need a light?
So, there you are.
Boo!
I don't want any trouble, Casper.
Just, just back off, okay?
What a strange man.
The place is going to be the death of me.
No!
AGH! Dad, it's just me!
You almost gave me a coronary.
Give me that!
It's good to see you too, Dad.
Quick, someone's coming.
Hide, hide!
wherever you are.
I know you're in here.
And when I get my hands on you, I'm going to skin you.
And cook you.
And cut you into dainty little bite-sized pieces.
Hah!
Dad!
Don't call me that!
Oh, you...
Won't you stay for dinner?
Here, robber, robber, robbers~
Finally, some more Trick-or-Treaters!
Children, you're home early.
Sir, are these little monsters yours?
They certainly are.
Well, they've been terrorizing the entire neighborhood.
We caught them trying to set fire to a nursing home.
Luckily, we put the flames out before any damage occurred.
Well, children, you tried your best.
Sir, if you don't straighten those kids out,
they're going to wind up doing 5 to 10 in Leavenworth!
Ahh, Fester's ol' alma mater.
Sir!
These men are armed and dangerous criminals.
These two? They're simple Trick-or-Treaters.
Did you find everything you were looking for?
Arrest us! Lock us up!
Just get me away from these lunatics!
I'm gonna miss them.
Come say goodbye, children.
What strange men.
Halloween brings out all kinds.
Well, Mama, you've certainly outdone yourself this year.
Thank you.
I hope the meat wasn't too tender.
Are you kidding?
I just broke two teeth trying to chew it.
Children, how was Trick-or-Treating?
Candy, candy, apple.
Candy, raisins?
I ask you, what sort of neighbors would give candy to children?
Shocking.
This is unfair.
You're stronger than I am!
Excuses, excuses!
Congratulations, Mama.
Fester's out cold.
Why, Mama, that's the third year in a row she's won.
A toast...
to Halloween!
The happiest time of the year!
