 I guess they got us, folks. Take a couple of squad cars and these Dick Tracy braces and stuff. Hey, I thought we were going to reform school. I would have been a sophomore this year. Deposit them in the bus. I'm going to stop here for a few minutes, just long enough to pick up mail supplies. I hope you don't mind. Okay. I got to check Willow's back tires anyway. Take me about 10 minutes. Good. Say, fellas, don't any of you wander away. Look around if you want to, but don't get far away from the bus, right? Really? There's a little scientific curiosity yet, so all law of gravitation, all that kind of stuff. I can see we're all going to have lots of fun together in the next two weeks. Yeah, so can I. That would be good. I ain't got no sense of humor, that's all. Say, you fellas, hang around here. I'm going to do a little window shopping. Yeah. You heard what he said. I don't like that guy's attitude. Me neither. If anybody thinks I'm going to stay up here and associate with him and all these cows and chickens, they're crazy. You know, I milked a car once. A very intricate affair. You see, a cow has four faucets. What for? Well, the first faucet is for buttermilk, the second for buttermilk, and the third is for evaporated milk. What's the fourth one for? Come to think of this, how many are three? Oh, they almost have been contented. Oh, very contented. Are you contented? Oh, extremely so. That's fine. I don't get it. Hey, listen, you guys lay low. See, I think I got an angle. As soon as it gets dark, make a break. That's right. Good. How about once a thirsty party inside tonight? Hey, what's your name? Margie. Margie. What a moniker. Margie and Moxie. That's got a lot of them out of here. We're going to camp, you know. Yeah, we're underprivileged. We interrupt this program for an important announcement to listeners near Hillside and Colton. All citizens are warned to be on the lookout for the monster killer who is believed to be in this vicinity. This maniac has left the trail of three inhuman murders and is believed heading upstate. We return you now to your program. Monsters? They don't mean nothing. We eat them every morning for breakfast. Bring those monsters on. I ain't scared of them. I'm anemic. I was taken for a ride once. There I was. Miles from Times Square, somewhere in Central Park, I think. He got killed. Oh, fantastic, wasn't it? I've been looking for you, Jim. Oh, hello there, Mayor. What's on your mind? Did you hear that stuff on the radio about that monster coming this way? Yeah, and that ain't all. I just got a telegram from the state police. You did, huh? They better come inside and talk it over. And if you don't stop pouting, I'll scream. I'm not pouting. You are, too, for no reason at all. That's no way to enjoy a vacation. Vacation? Are you kidding? With that bunch of gorillas, it'll be a nightmare. They're not gorillas. They're young and a little wild, maybe. Besides, you know perfectly well the camp was founded for boys who are denied the things you've had. Well, all right, so they need the outdoor life. But I was hoping for a nice quiet summer at camp so I could study my thesis and be with you. Instead of that, it's going to be as quiet around here as the funhouse at Coney Island. Well, some excitement will do us good. It's been a dull summer till now. Well, I like that. So now I'm dull. No, but lawyers aren't usually exciting. They're steady and, well, solid, like the Rock of Gibraltar. And just about as good a company, I suppose. Well, you listen to me, Linda Mason. I may be studying to be a lawyer. And a good one, too. Yes, and a good one, too. You're a good nurse, too. Wouldn't be better if it wasn't for disposition. Yeah, he ain't no good. But that guy didn't like fall like she said no. I run a temperature. Well, anyhow, the chow was OK. I didn't eat it. What? Dog in here. I'll say, I can't even see it. I can't even see myself. That's enough. It's got four legs and fleas. Hey, Monks, you're nothing like that. But remember what we heard about that guy on the radio? So? Fuzzy was prowling around here. Don't you think we ought to stand guard or something? Yeah. You just quiet and set a couple of bed traps for him. Happy dreams, Slappy. This book is murder. Thirsting for the flow of bright red blood. At this moment... Perhaps you can tell me where the Billings Estate is. The Billings Estate? Where it ain't been lived in for 10 years. Not since old man Billings was murdered in his sleep. Interesting. But you were about to tell me where it was. Oh, sure. Sure. It's up there. On the top of Billings Mountain. But, uh... Thank you. You're just a second ago. Just now. The radio said he was coming any year. And you know who I am. And you've come here to save us from him. I knew it. I knew it right away. And the monster, did you know him at once also? Right from the start. And red lips. The dwarf, too. Like a little black spider. And the trailer full of coffins. Was right in the middle of the book, when they come in. Going to the empty Billings Estate. I'm kind of a student of black magic. So when you're here, you'll need help. I guess that's right. I know that's right. Keep my presence a secret. That is of the utmost importance. I've got a date with Margie, so what? So we've got a date too and we're going to keep it. You guys can't leave. Can't you get in trouble? You've got to have appointment. You've got one? Why site me? Let's see it. I quit soon. I mean, I'm gone and I'm gone alone. Why don't you come with me? Well, which way are we going? So, Doc, I can't see the compass. Yeah, I'll give you a little light. But yes, your compass only has one hand. Well, why don't somebody line me those things? Come on, let's get out of this shell hole. I wonder if this is a couch rail at the State Highway. Kind of two-pinking news. Time needle. Radio about that ghoul? That guy that sucks all the blood out of you? What would he be doing out here, sucking a sap out of the trees? Hey, does the guy really suck the blood out of you? Yeah. Well, I got nothing to worry about because the mosquito's got all mine. It really was out here. But if you was back home? Yeah. Your old man would give you a hit in the head like that. I ain't got it, old man. The kids are normal. Hey, I'm holding it. I'm holding it. Come on, Slim. Well, the next time you come out of the dock, put a coat of whitewash on, will you? I'm so scared I'm turning white now. It has been without occupants for many years. Well, look, a buddy here's been hurt. We was going through the cemetery, taking a shortcut to town, and somebody took a pot shot at him. How unfortunate. He should lie down. Don't you think we ought to get a doctor? Perhaps later. Come with me. Yeah, let's get out of here. Oh, I didn't leave Pee Wee here. We got to wait until he's docked it up. Hey, you think that bird up there's all right? What if he's a... Let's see what's left of Pee Wee now, huh? Come on. What's that for? He ought to get back to camp. Yeah, I'm hungry. Vitamins are no vitamins. Oh, he's talking about food. We can't leave Pee Wee here alone. That will not be necessary. My home is not a grip for... Fine, but one of us is staying here. Hey, screw it up. You keep Pee Wee company. All right. I'll be leaving you later. Okay, Mr. You will notice this is a very old house. In some respect, it's a very strange one. Hey, this looks like one of those beds George Washington's left in. Let's get some light on this subject, huh? Louis, just please... Good night. Say, uh... Good night. Oh, you know you're way around here better than us. Good night. Better get a flashlight, huh? Oh, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Let's go together. Yeah, yeah, you said that once. You know something? I like this room much better than the dock. Like this candle. Good night. You got to have proof. Hey, please wire it. Lem Harvey saw him with a trailer full of carpets. A crazy killer running around with those butchering women proofed he won. Some little girl murdered out in the woods. I tell you, Jim, you got to do something. I take it easy, Mayor. I'm doing all I legally can. I've sworn in a lot of deputies, and I'm going to have every inch of road within 20 miles of this village for each old every hour of the day. All right, Jim, but it's your responsibility. It's up to you to do it. And don't forget, we've got that boys camp on our hands. I feel like sleeping. You notice something funny about that bird? Besides, I'm worried about Pee Wee. Yeah, I know. It's all mine. Well, let's go see him. Okay. He'd been like that all the time. Hey, Pee Wee. Listen, Mugs, you got the wrong man for this job. I'm better in the crowd. Look, you heard him, didn't you? Let's go. Yeah, and keep your eyes open. You don't think I'm going to stay in here for one minute and close them, do you? Come on, Pee Wee, open the door. Will you come? Come on. Stop getting Pee Wee and leaving here. Hey, maybe he's done something to him. Maybe Pee Wee will be like he is. I don't know about that, but we'll leave him before we find out. Hey, do you think that guy's dead like it says? It's the matter with you, can't you read? It says here that in the night, he prouds about seeking new victims. And in the daytime, he sleeps in a coffin. Well, let's wait till daytime. We ain't waiting for nothing. We're going right now. Remind me not to come back here on my vacation. I'll put it in my blue book. I've been reading Tony Flash's chord. What do you do? Just get up and walk out? That's exactly what I don't mean. Nothing else, but he got up out of that bed, walked out of this room, didn't even look at me or say a word. That's funny. Say, look here, y'all know one thing. I believe Pee Wee done been turned into a zombie. A zombie? What do you mean? You should have seen that glass of stare in his eyes, and the way he didn't listen when I was talking to him. Now, you know what I mean? Zombie, you know, zombie, we're going to find Pee Wee and get him out of this fight as paradise, see? Not a first thing we do is... He is your friend. That's what we want to know. What'd you do to him? I? I did nothing. In his condition, he should not be moved. We're going to find him and bring him back to camp. No, no, I insist that you stay. And you see things, not as they are, but as your imagination paints them for you. I suggest that you all retire and that Luigi and myself look for your friend. You cannot have gone for her. Well, maybe you're right. I think I got a look at nations, huh? Yeah, I guess I've been painting pictures, huh? Well, what do you say, fellas? We all get a good night's sleep and talk about it at the breakfast, huh? Yeah. Okay, Mr. Harrowman. I'm going to be your excuse and screw it on. So sit four on the one below. If anything happens, Harrowman. If you find Peewee, Harrowman will even lie. We'll meet you down at the foot of the stairs. Come on, let's go. I'm looking there. No, no, no. I ain't going to look in there. Oh, you're yellow. If I'm yellow, you scrub, huh? What are you scared about? I'll be right behind you. Go ahead. I'm trying to break the leaves, huh? He said to wait. I know what he sees. Just take a look and see. Stay right here. Don't move. Get out of here. I don't let this place... He saw Peewee come in here and he must be around. Of course, we find the creeper. We can take a powder. She was a nice room. Yes, it is. She was a... Well, I just don't do my best...
