Previously on Are You Afraid of the Dark?...
- You didn't open it, did you? - No.
It's obvious something's wrong. Can't you see that he's acting weird?
The Connor that you thought was your friend
is actually the Shadowman in disguise.
- Don't you see, he tricked you? - Go, go, go!
It's coming. We have to go.
Let's go. Come on.
- Seth! - No.
No! Seth!
- Come on, we have to go. - Hey, hey, he's gone.
He's gone. We gotta go!
Come on.
Where is it?
No!
Let her go!
Damn it!
Bring us back!
No!
Hey.
Luke.
- I thought you... - You had a nightmare.
Where's Jai?
No, that was real.
www.subtitulamos.tv
What is that?
That is morning.
You made it through another night.
Tea's ready. I have no food.
Then how does he eat? What does he eat?
- Does he live here? - My gosh.
- Some tea? - No, thanks.
Not the biggest fan of green tea.
Perhaps blue then.
- Just some water. - Bit boring, but okay.
Some lukewarm water for Luke.
Tough crowd.
- Apple juice. - Fresh out.
- Chocolate milk. - Afraid not.
- Surprise me. - Right answer.
Ooh, lemonade.
- How are you doing that? - This is a magic shop, yes?
I can taste the lemon.
A spot of tea for Sardo.
Red mushroom.
All right, fine.
How did this happen?
You used the Book of Shadows.
Yeah, to break the curse, to bring Connor back.
Regardless of your good intentions, you played with dark magic,
and when you use dark magic, you bring more evil into the world.
So now the Shadowman can look like Connor.
That's what you're saying?
Allow me to put it to you like this.
Thanks to your little spell,
The Shadowman can now walk around looking like a Backstreet Boy,
specifically Nick Carter.
Maybe a little bit, Brian, but definitely not Kevin.
It's like his human armor
- protecting him when the sun is up. - And when the sun is down?
He'll turn back into the monster, but this time even more powerful.
Why more powerful?
Children are afraid of the dark.
It's what he feeds on.
The more kids he takes, the stronger he becomes,
and now he's gained not one, but two of your friends.
I should have saved them.
Don't say that.
Jai wanted to save us.
He stayed behind so we could get away.
He was a hero.
He was our shield.
There's still four of us left.
If we break the curse, we can bring them back.
Jai and Connor.
We have a chance, right?
Logically speaking,
that's a hard no,
but logic does not produce magic,
so I suppose sure.
Help us break it.
No, no, no, that I can't do.
Why not?
For one, I don't know how,
and for two, I don't want to keep looking over my shoulder every time I see a shadow.
But you're not cursed. He won't come after you.
That was before you turned him into a human.
He'll hurt me and anyone who stands in his way.
I may not be cursed, but I'm also not stupid.
Please, you're the only one who can help us stop him.
Tell you what, you may all help yourself
to one free item as you walk out, up to $10 value.
- 15. - Sold, it's fine.
You know, for someone who owns a magic shop,
you really seem to hate kids.
I've been telling children to stay out
of those haunted woods for years.
They go in, they come back out,
and they get taken away.
You think I hate kids.
Try watching them disappear.
What are you doing?
Seeing if anything in here is real,
something magical that we can use to break the curse.
You think you can find something like that in here?
This is a magic shop, yes?
A Magic 8-Ball.
No, we need something with real magic.
Will Hanna get enough signatures to pass her petition?
Don't count on it.
I don't know, it seems kind of magical to me.
You're not going to save yourselves with some kind of magic bullet.
The only way to break a curse is to stop the thing that started.
The Book of Shadows is what started it.
What if we destroy it?
Splendid idea.
But that book is protected by dark magic.
It's practically indestructible.
We don't have to destroy the book.
We just have to destroy Shadowman.
- Is that even possible? - Why not?
- We already know his weakness. - Lights.
Yeah, we've used lights before.
It's not strong enough to kill him.
Then we make it stronger.
I have an idea.
Hey, Sardo, I need a mirror.
- I have a mystical mirror. - Okay, I don't know what that is, but sure,
and a sun catcher, something small made of glass.
This work?
Perfect.
Anything else? A comb perhaps.
Light is energy. It travels in a straight line, right?
That light hits a barrier, say a mirror,
and bounces into a new direction.
- You guys are with me so far? - Yeah.
If that light passes through something,
like a glass of water or a prism, it does this.
Rainbow.
- Refraction. - You mean reflection.
No, she means refraction.
There's a difference. It's when light bends.
Okay, am I stupid? How do you girls know this kind of stuff?
Basic physics.
I've read everything to know about sunlight and solar power energy.
That's lovely, but are you suggesting we fight the Shadowman with rainbows?
Okay, imagine a light bulb.
When it shines, the light blows everywhere in all directions.
Right, and if you add things like
prisms and lenses around that, you can bend all of the light
and create one powerful beam.
It's how headlights in a car work.
Or stage lights at a school theater.
- Yes, or even a... - A lighthouse beacon.
Yeah.
So you guys are saying that we can take a bunch of tiny lights
and combine them into one big super light,
and then use that to destroy the Shadowman?
Exactly.
How would it work?
When the sun's up, he can be hit by lights,
but when the sun's down he's the Shadowman.
Do we even stand a chance against him?
We could set a trap.
We'll lure him in while he's still Connor.
Then as soon as the sun sets and he's most vulnerable,
we'll hit him with every light we got.
That leaves us with a very small window of opportunity.
But it's a chance.
It just might work.
We said anything that makes light.
You're already gambling with your life.
You don't need to be playing with fire too.
Leave it.
It literally says everlasting light.
I think that's exactly what we need.
Relax. All right?
It's a trick match for parties. It's a piece of junk.
Find something else.
Here, take this.
I'm good. I don't really wear diamond necklaces, but thanks.
It's a talisman, you nincompoop.
Pure crystal, and you're going to need
a special prism to refract the light.
Plus, it is said the crystal grant's magical powers
to whoever wears it.
Real magic or just more junk?
Just take it. Be careful with it.
Seth, do not play with the chameleon. It will bite you.
Okay, let's go,
Thanks for the free stuff, Sardo.
No one said it was free. We will be discussing a payment plan.
Luke, Luke, Luke.
How do you know he's going to show up?
Because the Shadowman always shows up.
Thanks for your help, Sardo.
Don't thank me till it's over.
- Dad. - Mom.
Mommy.
How'd you know we were here?
Sorry, guys.
I had to tell 'em.
You don't call. You don't write. You don't even send an email,
no, "Hey, Dad, just checking in,"
Even an emoji would have been nice,
something that tells a father
that his son broke curfew and disappeared,
but to not worry.
Thumbs up, smiley winky face?
- Dad, I... - You're grounded, obviously. You know that, right?
Consider the rest of your year canceled.
All your favorite little things here, canceled.
This thing right here, ha, canceling it.
- Whatever he said, he's lying. - Hey, dude, it's okay.
I told him the truth,
that it was my idea to break into the cottage.
What?
And Mr. McCoy, in Luke's defense,
he didn't want to go do it.
I just thought it would be more fun to ditch the dance
and go throw a party in the woods.
I pressured him into it.
Good. Well, it doesn't matter,
because he knew it was wrong, and he did it anyways.
- Dad, he's... - Give me your phone.
Give it!
You can go now, Connor.
You can tell your friends that Lucas here is under house arrest
and that it'll be a very long time before he ever sees the light of day.
See you tonight.
No, you won't, because you're grounded.
And what's this about you stealing a car?
- You stole my car? - I brought it back.
- And you turned off your phone. - No, that's not...
- I lost it. - What is going on?
You're stealing, lying, staying out all night.
I'm sorry, there's just been a lot of things happening, and I...
Is that why you missed your PSATs this morning?
I don't get it.
All your studying and your hard work, and you threw it away for what?
For a fun night? Was it worth it?
Your boss called.
He said he hasn't seen you since Monday.
So it sounds like you want to quit your job now, too.
I thought you wanted to save money for college,
but I guess you don't care about your future at all.
I do care!
No, because if you did, you would fight for it.
All you seem to care about lately is getting your license.
You can forget about that now.
You need to take a hard look at yourself
and think about who you want to be,
because this girl is not the Gabby I know.
Could you please help out?
What's the point in doing chores if we're just going to die soon anyways?
Less talking, more cleaning!
Okay.
The sooner we finish, the sooner mom might let us out.
Could you get me some new water?
You know what the worst part about all this is?
I'm going to die before I get the chance to join The Midnight Society.
How did you get your phone back?
I'm on my laptop. Luke isn't answering,
and we need to get to the shipyard before sunset.
We have to do it tonight or else we don't stand a chance.
Are you able to sneak out?
Our mom's got us on lockdown.
I don't think we can slip out.
It's you. You'll find a way.
Just meet me outside in ten, okay?
Okay.
We're sneaking out?
But how are we going to get past mom?
Just give me a second. I'm thinking.
Gabby, I just wanted to remind...
_
Gabby!
Gabby, stop!
- Mommy! - Seth?
Again?
Don't get mad at me. You raised her.
Hanna!
Hurry, it's getting heavy.
Get me your chair quick.
You know your sister does stuff like this.
When are you going to stop falling for all of her tricks?
As soon as you stop falling for mine.
What?
Ready?
Yeah.
Fire of earth, smoke of sky,
push restraints to keep you dry.
No, no, Hanna, Seth!
- Bye mommy. - Seth, Hanna!
Seth. Kids, get back here right now!
Got it. Hurry up.
So what kind of ball was it?
It's a super orb?
Super orb, right, got it.
And you said you saw it fly back here.
- Are you sure it was this house? - Positive.
All right, well, let's check the front yard.
I want my super orb!
No, whoa, okay. Please don't cry.
Okay, we'll find it. See, I'm looking for it. I'm looking for it.
Thanks for saving me.
Getting pretty used to it by now.
Please, God, just stop crying.
Here's a baseball.
You want this instead? Here you go.
My ride's here.
Who's that?
That's my mom, my other mom.
Hi, Linda!
Did she do something with her hair?
Bye, Mr. Luke's Dad.
Weird kid.
This is where The Midnight Society meets?
Yep.
- Spooky. - That's the point.
Let's get to work.
Brilliant.
"A curse that cannot be reversed
till what was stolen return first."
Magic word?
How can I help you?
In the market for some tarot cards?
Maybe a rubber chicken?
I'm afraid that's not sold separately.
It's part of the full suit of armor, so...
But the customer is always right.
You're helping them.
I don't want any trouble.
I'm just the man who owns a magic shop.
Not for long.
What are you going to do?
Kill me with my own sword?
No.
Okay, stop.
Stop.
They're setting a trap.
Show me.
Will we break the curse tonight?
_
Will the super light destroy the Shadowman?
_
Do you ever say anything else?
_
Guys, it's almost sunset.
It's almost sunset.
Hello?
What's going on?
Take a seat.
Okay.
Am I in trouble?
You're gathered in the presence
of The Midnight Society.
We hereby welcome you to the trials
and invite you to share your tale.
Wait, seriously?
Yeah, we all agreed.
Curse or no curse, you're one of us now.
And we want to make it official
in case we don't get another chance.
But I haven't finished my story,
- and I need... - That's okay.
We just need you to tell us something spooky.
Whatever comes to mind. Think of what scares us.
Make us afraid.
Luke, you're afraid to take charge.
Gabby, you're afraid of people being disappointed in you.
Hanna is afraid to tell Luke about her giant crush on him.
Luke's afraid to tell Hanna that he likes your back.
Gabby is scared she'll never leave this town.
Hanna's afraid she'll never want to.
Making the first move, red pen marks, landfills.
Seth Romero, please rise.
What's this for?
A special ritual.
Midnight, clock strike,
dark night, flash light.
Do you solemnly swear to keep the society secret?
I do.
Do you pledge your loyalty until your final minute?
I do.
Do you vow never to fear the dark
but fear what looks within it?
I do.
Flash light, midnight...
Submitted for the approval of The Midnight Society,
I welcome
my brother...
Seth.
He's here.
There's only five minutes till sunset.
None of this will work if we miss the window.
Then let's not miss it.
I know you're in here.
Is that a cage?
You know, when I heard you guys were setting a trap,
I didn't think it'd be so literal.
I appreciate you guys throwing me a party, but
I don't have anything for you.
Wait, no, no, no. That's...
That's not true. I do have something for you.
Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together
for a very special guest this evening,
the legendary
Sardo.
So why don't you all come out
and we'll show him a little magic trick.
No?
Here, I'll give you a little preview.
Stop!
Let him go.
No, Luke, he...
Luke, the boy with the light.
Let everyone go.
Just take me.
That's very heroic of you.
But unnecessary.
You see, one way or another, I'm going to get all of you.
That's the price you pay
when you walk into the woods after dark.
Drop the flashlight, Luke.
Look, if you all come quietly, I'll let the magic man live.
I said drop it.
You said it.
Now.
Ten seconds!
Luke, the talisman!
No.
- Say, goodbye, kids. - No, Sardo!
- No. - No, please.
Always say goodbye.
No!
- Drag him into the dark! - Seth, he's already gone.
No!
If he drags him into the dark,
we'll still have a chance to save Sardo.
Drag him into the dark!
No.
Take him!
What are you gonna do, Harry Potter?
Throw your little ball at me?
My name is Seth.
Accent on the "Seth."
Run! Go!
Seth, get out of there!
Where's the talisman?
I dropped it.
- Where? - I don't know.
You saw what it did.
The talisman hurt him. We have to find it.
Be quiet, he's coming.
Go.
Get under here, come on.
Seth, give me your wand.
But, you don't know how to make it fly.
I don't have to.
Go away!
Seth!
No.
- Come on, let's go. - Take him.
Where's Hanna?
Hide... she's just hiding.
Okay.
We have to find the talisman. It could actually hurt him.
I see it.
It's near the mirrors.
It's too far.
- It's the only way to stop him. - Gabby, it's too dangerous.
- Quick and stealthy. - What?
- Gabby, Gabby. - No!
No, no, no!
Luke!
Yes.
Is Gabby gone?
Hanna's not hiding, is she?
What do we do?
We use magic.
It's just a prism, Seth.
Magic isn't real.
Sardo said the curse was created using dark magic, remember?
Well, if there really is dark magic,
then there has to be light magic too.
You're the leader of the Midnight Society, Luke.
It's up to you to break the curse.
I don't know how.
We're never getting out of here.
Is magic real?
Here,
take this.
There's lights inside if you need them.
Please, break the curse and bring us back.
- What? - Run for the door.
No. No, Seth, no.
Hey, tree head!
_
I know you're in here, Luke.
You want to play hide and seek?
Ready or not...
here I come.
You like telling scary stories, right, Luke?
Well,
how about I tell you one?
How about it, Luke?
You want to hear a scary story?
Five little children
in a fine little town.
One went missing
when the sun went down.
Four little children
tried to play in the park.
One disappeared
since it was after dark.
Three little children
tried to turn on the light.
One was taken
by a man in the night.
Two little children
in their shadows of black.
One tried to scream
when the shadows stared back.
The last child left
tried to run and hide
but your time is up
and now you're mine.
Luke?
What?
He hasn't said anything.
No, he's the only one here.
I have no idea. Okay, listen,
I just got back from a trip, all right?
And the only thing that I know
is my place is trashed, there's a hole in my door,
and I can't get ahold of Connor.
I just want to find my son.
All right, just get here as soon as you can,
and I'll keep an eye on him until I can figure out what's going on.
Luke!
Come back!
What's the matter? Are you afraid of the dark?
Face your fears, you fight for what you want and you get them,
and I think it's really cool.
You're the leader of the Midnight Society, Luke.
It's up to you to break the curse.
If you break the curse, we can bring them back.
Bring us back!
The only way to break a curse is to stop the thing that started it.
It says here the lighthouse shut down in 1996.
That's the same year June died.
So Connor was trying to talk to a ghost?
Ghosts have unfinished business,
something they never got to do
or something they never got to say.
And when finished, thank the spirit for joining you.
Remember to... Always say good-bye.
Say goodbye, kids.
Always say goodbye.
June Murphy, she could be the key to all of this.
What if June wasn't the victim of the curse after all?
What if she's what started it?
If June has any unfinished business, she will tell you.
This town needs a lighthouse, Dad.
The light protected us, guided us.
Without it, we're all just lost to the dark.
Children are afraid of the dark. It's what he feeds on.
The lighthouse keeper cast a spell to try to save his daughter, and it backfired.
He became the Shadowman.
When you use dark magic, you bring more evil into the world.
- Magic isn't real. - Well, if there really is dark magic,
then there has to be light magic too.
Thanks for your help, Sardo.
Don't thank me till it's over.
Sardo,
I know what I have to do now.
I know how to break the curse,
but I need your help.
