We didn't get out of the woods in time.
He doesn't like lights.
If you just found out you were cursed, what would you do?
Try to break it.
- June Murphy. - Says here she died in 1996.
I know what we gotta do to break the curse.
We gotta hold a seance.
_
Get away from me!
Spider. It's this... spider.
I felt it...
Look, I wouldn't get closer, lady, okay, it's...
You guys really need to clean up in here more.
Or get some exterminators. You could've killed me.
Yeah.
_
June.
Are you there?
I know your presence is strong in here, June.
Please...
you're the only one who can help me break this curse.
I know this isn't exactly a seance board, but it's all I have.
Please, June. Tell me what happened.

Tonight, we gather to summon the ghost of June Murphy.
June,
we know Connor was trying to contact you before he disappeared.
Can you help us?
Can you help us, pretty please?
- This isn't working. - Because you keep interrupting
- every time we're getting somewhere. - Getting somewhere? Where have we gotten, Jai?
- I swear I heard something. - Dude, no one heard anything.
- Yeah, but I heard it. - We're obviously doing something wrong.
What if we hold hands?
Maybe dim the lights? When have you ever seen a movie
with a seance where at the lights are on?
Good call, Jai. Let's go do the one thing that protects us from the Shadowman.
I said dim. Not get rid of.
- It was a dim idea. - ***
What about the holding hands idea?
I say we just try again.
Sure. Why don't we do that, kay?
Maybe this time one of dream hunks can help us out.
Kay, let's ask.
Hi, Matt. We've a question for June Murphy.
- Yeah, can you put her on? - I like pizza.
Good for you. Thanks. Talk to you later.
I mean, what are we even doing?
This isn't a seance. This is ridiculous.
Okay, look it's not my fault Connor didn't have a proper seance board. Okay?
It was either this or Battleship.
- Battleship would've been better. - Yeah, totally.
- Battleship can't summon ghosts. - Well, neither can Dream Phone.
Which, Connor owns for some odd reason.
I think that's a big mystery here.
Okay, it doesn't even matter, because ghosts aren't real.
Ghosts are real, okay?
- I saw one at Camp Fear last summer. - You mean that comic book camp
where kids do horror cosplay and dress up like zombies and ghosts?
- Yeah! - Put them together.
Yeah.
- Yeah. - Right. Not cool.
Yeah.
Okay, well, unless someone has a better idea,
can we call it quits?
What about the holding hands idea?
Okay, Seth, I'm not going to hold your hand.
Okay.
I say we just get some sleep,
do some research tomorrow, and then try again before the sun sets.
- Okay. Yeah. - Okay.
But we need someone to stay awake and stand guard.
- Any volunteers? - I'll do it.
My moms say I have boundless energy.
We'll take shifts.
Wake one of us in one hour, and then we'll trade off.
Okay? Just... don't fall asleep.
Trust me, I won't fall asleep.
- Hello? - Hi. It's Chad.
Want to go to the mall?
Sorry.
Hey guys, look.
Sunrise. We made it through the night.
No thanks to Seth.
Oh, my God, my mom's car.
Gabby, what are you doing?
I'm just... I'm...
I'm, just learning about antilock braking systems.
Did you know that they automatically
modulate the brake pressure during an emergency stop?
Fascinating!
Gabby.
I know you're excited about getting your license,
but if you're going to read useless information,
it should be for the PSATs on Saturday.
Right. Got it.
- Hi, Luke... - Hey, Dad. What's up?
Why are you awake?
Well, 'cause... 'cause it's morning. That's when people wake up.
People do. You... you do not.
This is two times in a row now.
You can't be my son because my son is a night person.
Not anymore.
I love the morning so... so much.
Right.
I don't know what's going on here, but you're grounded.
What! Why?
You're not actually grounded. Relax. I'm just saying
that you should be grounded for whatever it is you're lying to me about.
I'm not lying. I have to study.
I'll see you downstairs.
Nice shirt, by the way. Girl power.
Household science projects start tomorrow,
so I hope no one has been procrastinating.
Remember, these are 10% of your semester grades.
If June Murphy was a victim of the curse,
she must have gone into the woods at some point.
Which means she's from this town.
Let's begin. Open your books to page 214.
She probably went to school here back in the '90s.
Which means she's in the yearbooks.
Just give one of the yearbooks to me, and...
Do you two just want to sit next to each other?
Here we go. Shadow Bay High 1996.
How'd you know they keep the yearbooks back here?
It's where they keep all the graphic novels.
Every so often, I'll skip PE,
come to this dark empty corner, and read in peace.
That's so...
sad.
Found her. June Murphy.
So that's her.
She's so pretty...
I mean.
She's dead now, but I'm sure she's flattered.
Great. And apparently she's a '90s version of Hanna.
- Speaking of... - What?
The Glow Dance. You gonna ask her?
- Who? Hanna? - No, June Murphy.
Yes, Hanna. Context clues, man. Come on.
Okay, I'm a little busy right now
with this whole deadly curse thing.
- Besides, she's not into me. - I'm don't know about that.
You two were pretty chummy last night.
Okay, okay, let's focus.
There's nothing in here that says anything about how June died,
so we should try to find someone that knew her when she was alive.
Okay.
Who's the oldest person we know at the school?
Hey, Ms. Schaffner.
Love the kitten sweater and the earrings are doing the most.
I wish I could pull those off, but they just look so good on you.
I'm eating lunch right now.
Is that a meatball salad?
Yes. And this is my time.
Anyways, you've been teaching here for like 100 years, right?
Wow, I did not think my birthday could get any worse,
but thank you, Jai.
- Happy birthday? - What we're trying to ask
is if you knew a student who used to go here, June Murphy?
June? Yes, I knew June.
You were her teacher too?
What is wrong with you today, Jai?
No. We went to school together.
If she hadn't of died, we would've been the same age.
If you carry the one, and...
Stop doing the math. It's true.
Anyways, why are you asking? Why are you asking about June?
Well, you see, we wanted to know how she...
- We wanted to know... - We want to know how she died.
It was very, very tragic accident.
Ms. Schaffner, whatever you can tell us,
it would be very, very helpful.
- Here it is. - _
What did she say, exactly?
That June died because something bad happened.
But Schaffner didn't really want to talk about it.
Anything online?
No, nothing.
Okay, here, let me try.
Hanna, we said door open.
Okay, we're trying to break an evil curse
that's threatening our lives, Mom.
Sounds fun. Love it.
- Just do it with the door open. - Okay.
- Hi, Luke. - Hi, Ms. Romero.
Okay so just see if there's any pictures
that match up with anything.
Yo, Luke! Check it out.
Okay, not now, Seth.
I figured these could...
scare off the Shadowman.
Got it. Now, get out.
Why? So you guys can kiss?
What?
Why would you say that?
I saw you googled kissing on, yeah....
yeah, it was that computer.
I... Missing. I googled missing for...
for kids who have gone missing in the curse.
- Yeah, it was... - There's no K in missing, though.
It was probably just a typo
- and the Ks are right next to the Ms. - Yeah, no, yeah, for sure. Auto correct.
It's a thing. That's true. Yeah.
Seth, let's go. You've got clarinet lessons.
Coming, Mommy.
As you were.
Where were we?
Yeah.
Lighthouse.
Look.
Charlie Murphy.
So, she was the daughter of the lighthouse keeper.
It says here that the lighthouse shut down in 1996.
That's the same year June died.
That's also the same year a lot of kids start going missing.
It all has to be connected.
Wait a minute.
What if June wasn't the victim of the curse after all?
What if she's what started it?
_
It is my number one best seller.
The dark Dragon potion
that brings out the best in yourself.
Smell those notes of cardamom and
yes, mung beans.
It's like you're eating.
It's practically a steal at $200 plus tax.
Excuse me. Don't go anywhere. Don't touch anything.
Here we go.
- Magic... - Abracadabra.
I hate those kids.
I see you're still alive and well. Too bad for me.
Well? We're not well. We're cursed.
The Shadowman is real, and he's coming after us.
All of you?
Well, best of luck with your final days. Urns are on the back wall.
We need your help, Mr. Sardo.
No, mister. And I can't help you.
As I said before, no one knows how to break the curse.
We think we know someone who does.
The only problem is...
well, she's dead.
Too bad for her. And you. Now, off you go.
Our friend Connor. Remember him?
The punk who broke into my shop? How could I forget?
Well, we found this.
It's his list of stuff for a seance.
We think he was trying to contact the girl who died 25 years ago, June Murphy.
She could be the key to all of this.
We tried summoning her last night,
but Dream Phone isn't the best for summoning ghosts.
So we want you to show us how to do a real seance.
- I would, but I'm so busy today. - This is serious.
The Shadowman almost took my brother.
Yeah. He's cursed too.
Now, are you going to be responsible for five kids
going missing because you stood by and did nothing?
Or are you going to help?
Okay.
- $5,000. - $5,000?
$4,000 I said $4,000. $4,500.
- We don't have that kind of money. - Fine, then.
A favor.
What kind of favor?
I teach you how to hold a seance,
and you bring back what your friend took from me.
"The Book of Shadows?"
How are we supposed to find it? No one knows where it is.
The book is in the old cottage by the lighthouse.
How did you know that?
Because he told me.
Come on Dumble-dork. I know it's here.
I told you. I don't know what you speak of.
Now, if you're not here to buy, I must ask you to leave.
I need that book, man.
Look, it's life or death. I swear, I will bring it back.
What are you doing?
Hello, this is Sardo. Accent on the do.
Yeah, the magic shop guy.
And I have a hooligan in my shop causing a disturbance.
Fine. Fine.
Fine.
Then what can I get you?
No, he still here. He's breaking everything.
I'll take that.
False alarm.
Excellent choice.
When he left here, he muttered something about the cottage.
Later that night, he stole the spell book,
so I assume you can find it there.
Why did he need it?
- Who knows. - There something you're not telling us.
- Will you bring it back or not? - We can't go back there.
It's in the haunted woods. That's where this whole thing started.
Please.
Not like you can get cursed twice.
So. Do we have a deal?
Ghosts have unfinished business.
It's something they never got to do
or something they never got to say.
If June has any unfinished business, she will tell you.
Now, you may only get one shot at this.
Do it wrong, you could scare her off.
I suggest we begin with someone else for a practice run.
Can we contact Connor?
I'm sorry.
If the Shadowman got him, he's not a ghost.
He's just trapped in a terrifying void of darkness.
How comforting.
Anyone else?
Elvis?
Basic but yeah, okay.
Now, there are rules to every seance.
One, don't be rude to the ghost.
Two, never pull away from the circle.
And three, when you're ready for the seance to be over,
you must all hold hands and say goodbye to the ghost.
Do not forget that. Understood?
Now then. Select a leader.
A leader?
For what?
To speak.
If there too many voices, a ghost would answer.
I'll do it. Yeah. Me.
Jai, no.
I know that I got the whole sunset time wrong
but, look I'll take responsibility for that.
- I can do this. - ***
that's not what I meant. I meant no.
This is a very important role. I feel like someone else...
You don't think I can't handle it. All of you? Really guys? You know what?
You know what, it doesn't matter... I called dibs.
I'm the leader. All right? Let's begin.
One last thing here.
What is that?
The Phantom light.
Not every spirit you meet is friendly.
If the Phantom light ever flickers,
you will know an evil spirit has entered the room
and you should end the seance immediately.
Cool.
Yeah, it's pretty cool.
Place you hand upon the planchette.
Now, leader, speak to the ghost
and find out if it would like to talk.
We gather here to summon the ghost of Elvis.
If there are any spirits in this room, please come forward.
- Nothing's happening. - Patience.
What was that?
Elvis?
There something in the room with us.
- Who's Elvis? - Dude!
Seth, you have got to stop doing that.
How did you even get here?
Mommy dropped me off.
You guys have got to stop leaving me out of everything.
I'm cursed too. Like it or not, I am a part of this.
You're right. We're sorry.
There's no time for sorries.
We have to do this before the sun sets and the Shadowman comes back.
Yeah. No more practice rounds, okay?
Tell us how to summon June.
I am afraid it's not quite that simple.
You can't actually reach her ghost from here.
So, this was a waste of time?
You said you wanted to learn how to hold a seance, now you know.
If you wish to contact June, you must do it from a place for her spirit is strong.
Let me guess, the cottage which is the same place the book is?
Two vampires, one stake.
How do we know we can trust you?
Because.
I held up my end of the bargain.
The only question is will you?
Luke. When you find the "Book of Shadows,"
you must never open it. Never. Understand?
Only evil comes from that book.
Okay. Remind me why we're doing this?
Again?
Unfinished business.
I've never seen this close up before.
Me neither.
Let's go.
Good thing we brought battery-powered lights.
So this is where June Murphy lived.
Fancy.
This looks like Gammie's house.
And it smells like it too.
Remind me to never visit your Gammie's house.
Wait. That's June's jacket. From the yearbook.
What's that?
It's a petition.
- Save the lighthouse. - June must've made this.
- God! - Sorry.
Wait.
Guys, look.
There's, like, symbols?
Hieroglyphics.
- or aliens? - No, runes.
See the candles?
Someone was doing ritual.
- What, witchcraft? - Or like magic.
More like a spell.
Sardo was right, Connor was here.
Then, where's the "Book of Shadows?"
We'll worry about that later, okay?
Right now, we have to focus on us.
The sun is setting, the Shadowman is coming, we have to be ready.
We'll do this in June's room.
Set up the lights, arrange the circle,
and raise some spirits.
Candles?
Check.
Pictures?
Check.
Lights?
Real lights.
Check.
And a gift for the spirit.
Check.
Okay, let's begin.
Wait.
One more thing.
Yeah.
We hereby seek out the spiritual realm.
Please keep our circle safe and well.
June Murphy, we know you have unfinished business.
We're here to help.
June, are you there?
I feel something.
Me too.
- Is that you? - Not me.
Keep going.
June, give us your message.
9.
- 6. - 96.
It's okay, the Phantom light's not glowing.
I think it's June.
June.
Tell us what you want.
What's happening?
This is scary.
No, don't break the circle!
Why's everything different?
Where's Seth?
We're going crazy. We're going crazy.
Guys, I think we...
That's her. That's June Murphy.
How is this possible?
What happened to Gabby?
She went crazy.
June. Tell us what to do.
Give us a sign.
? Is enough enough? ?
? I saw the sign ?
Hello?
? It opened up my eyes, I saw the sign ?
She can't see us.
? Life is demanding ?
? Without understanding ?
? I saw the sign ?
Hey. I love this movie. Have you ever...
No.
- This is when she actually dies. June, June, get outta here! - June!
- Get outta here, no... - June.
Hey Dad.
You're going to be late again.
- Dad? - Dad?
Coming.
Luke, that ghost just walked through you.
I think she's a ghost.
No.
I think we're the ghosts.
No, I killed them.
You're not dead. You're breathing.
You're sleeping. You're all just taking a nap.
- What if we're dead? - We're not dead.
I think we're still in the seance.
I don't understand.
Has anyone seen Seth?
He pulled out of the circle right before the flash happened.
We are supposed to bring June to us, not us to June.
Wait, what's that sound?
Got to say, don't love the flashes.
I get it now.
These are flashbacks. She's not telling us what happened.
She's showing us.
Where are we?
The lighthouse.
Okay, hit it, June.
I've never seen it lit before.
You're getting pretty good at that.
I'm going to take your job soon.
- Hi, Gary... - It's Mayor Denberg.
- Is your dad there? - Yeah. He's home. Just one sec.
Dad, phone. But please be quick.
I need the line open in case Gary tries to call.
Gary will be fine.
You two talk on that phone too much as it is.
As if! But seriously. Be quick.
You want to pay the phone bill?
Love you!
- Hello. - Hi, Charlie.
It's Mayor Denberg.
I'm afraid I've got some bad news.
It's about the lighthouse.
I'm sorry, Junie.
Whatever.
Do you think I wanted this?
It wasn't my decision.
Yeah, but you're giving up.
There's nothing we can do.
We can fight it.
I'll start a petition or something.
We'll go door-to-door getting signatures
and convince people not to shut it down.
This town needs a lighthouse, Dad.
Honey, it's not that easy.
It's worth a try.
We tried.
That's all that matters.
Come on.
Despite efforts to challenge the city council vote,
the beloved Shadow Bay lighthouse is shutting down.
Tonight, for the first time in nearly a century,
the beacon will not turn on,
and the lighthouse will fall dark forever.
She only needed a few more signatures.
She was that close.
Now, we'll hear from Charlie Murphy,
the man whose family has kept the light on
for four generations.
The lighthouse is more than just a beacon of light.
It's a beacon of hope.
The light protected us, guided us.
Without it we're all just lost in the dark.
Turning it off was a grave mistake.
For the safety of all of our children,
I hope that one day that beacon will shine again.
Thank you, Charlie.
This has been Emily Blakey with KCWK News signing off.
Oh, no.
Where's she going?
She's going to try to turn it on.
We have to stop her. She's going get herself killed.
Luke, that's the thing.
- She already passed. - Dude, stop!
Dude, we can't prevent it from happening.
- We can try. - No.
Jai.
June!
- Jai. - Jai.
Gotcha.
June!
You know the cash that you keep taped behind
the picture of the unibrow lady?
I borrowed that two months ago for my super orb.
I know you'll be mad, but that investment was for the best
because that super orb ended up saving our lives.
That feels really good to get off of my chest.
All right, who's next?
This happened a long time ago man.
You couldn't have stop that. It's in the past.
It was a terrible accident,
just like Ms. Schaffer said.
I know.
I'm still confused about something.
June died before the curse existed,
so she couldn't have created it.
Then who did?
What happened?
What is it?
I seek you in the darkest hour.
This is how it happens.
Hear my plea.
And give me power.
This is bad.
Guys? Guys? Wake up.
What's he doing?
- He's using the book. - For what?
Take me in the black of night
to bring her back into the light.
Can't you see?
"The Book of Shadows."
The Shadowman.
Guys, the Shadowman is outside and he's eating all our lights.
Guys, I can't do this by myself.
Guys!
The curse that cannot be reversed.
To what was stolen, return first.
Firelight and shadow black.
I give my life... to pay death back.
It's fine. We're ghosts, remember? He can't see us.
Then again. I'm always wrong.
Okay. Time to say goodbye!
Goodbye, June.
That was awesome.
I mean it wasn't awesome it was actually really scary, but it was awesome.
Why's it so dark in here?
Seth?
- Seth! - Dude!
- Seth. - Hi, hope you all had a good nap.
It is now a bad time to tell you that the Shadowman is outside?
This will give us 12 hours of battery life.
Yeah. This isn't working either. How long were we in there?
In where? What happened you guys?
Long story.
Did you triple knot these, man? How did you tie these so horribly?
I'm not familiar with your laces.
You have weird shoes.
I told my mom I was studying at the library.
If she finds out I lied, she's going to kill me.
I hate to break it to you Gabby, but if we have to figure out something soon,
the Shadowman is going to kill you first.
Finally.
There is no use. They're all dying.
We brought extra batteries.
Got them.
There's enough for all of us.
Got 'em.
No.
- Come on, come on, come on. - Oh, my God.
Are you okay?
The batteries. Come on.
Look.
The Phantom light.
It only flickers when there's an evil spirit nearby.
Yeah, evil spirit. Just experienced that first-hand.
At least have one light that works.
What do we do?
We need to go.
Where? Out in the haunted woods?
We're sitting ducks here. At least there we can make a run for it.
- Like how Connor ran? - Exactly.
- He stole the book. - Who cares about a spell book?
- *** - No, no, Connor stole "The Book of Shadows."
He had a reason to do it.
Okay. I'll start at the beginning.
We know Connor went into the woods.
He got cursed. Then he found out about June Murphy.
He decided to hold the seance to find out the truth.
And the truth is that the lighthouse keeper used the book
to become the Shadowman.
That's why Connor wanted it.
"The Book of Shadows" is what created the curse,
- then maybe... - It's what we use to break it.
We need to find the book.
- Anything? - No.
- Where do you think Connor would've hid the book? - I don't know.
- Fireplace? - Let's check.
Guys, I'm stuck. Luke, little help?
Gabby.
I think he's here.
- Found it. - What?
- Jai! - Jai, no!
Jai, no!
What are you waiting for? Read the curse!
- No... no... - Luke?
I understand what Connor was trying to do.
Then read it!
"Spirits high, spirits low,
protect me from this wicked foe."
I can't find it...
Come on.
"Drive away all harm and fear."
Hey, Mom.
"Only good is welcome here."
Yeah. We're still at the library.
- Our heads are buried books. - Hurry up!
- Trust me. - Guys this is taking too long.
- I can't see the spell! - Hold out your fingers!
"Spell of magic pure and bright,
protect us in your hollowed light".
Hey, guys.
Guys wake up. Guys come on.
What happened?
Did it work?
Did you break the curse?
Connor?
It's you, it's really you.
Yeah.
It's really me.
