00:00 I mean, if they're scary, they should be just as scary during the day, right?
00:10 No way.
00:11 Things are always scarier at night.
00:14 Yeah, but why?
00:17 Because you can't see things at night.
00:22 Yeah, like some ghoul could sneak up on you in the dark and you wouldn't know until it was too late.
00:27 Ha ha ha ha.
00:30 So who's going tonight?
00:31 I am.
00:32 Oh man.
00:34 What's the matter?
00:35 You always tell the same kind of story.
00:38 It's kind of gross, but everyone always lives happily ever after.
00:42 Boring.
00:44 So what's your problem?
00:46 You're kind of gross and boring too.
00:48 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:50 Cool.
00:51 Things are scarier at night, especially in my story.
00:57 You can be scared during the day, but don't bother, because the real terror never begins until night falls.
01:10 Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society, except for Eric,
01:18 I call this story...
01:24 The Tale of the Nightly Neighbors.
01:29 [music]
01:44 [screaming]
01:55 Boo!
01:56 Ah!
01:57 Ha ha ha.
01:59 What's the matter?
02:00 Did I scare you?
02:02 Not too funny.
02:07 You sit in front of the TV all day and you're going to turn into Dad.
02:12 Great.
02:14 If that happens, I'll send you to your room.
02:16 Forever.
02:20 You're a zero.
02:21 You'll always be a zero.
02:23 You won't catch me sitting around like some toad.
02:26 There's a ton going on in the world, Day-Day, and I'm not going to miss any of it.
02:39 Hey, new neighbors moving in.
02:42 At night?
02:47 What's with the black clothes?
02:49 I think they look cool.
02:51 Maybe they're artists or foreign diplomats, or maybe they got dressed in the dark.
02:56 I don't know. They look stupid.
02:58 Whoever they are, they don't fit this boring neighborhood.
03:05 Whoa.
03:09 Tell me that wasn't creepy.
03:12 I think I'm going to avoid our new neighbors.
03:29 Need a hand?
03:31 I need a new back.
03:33 It's in the box.
03:34 Whatever it is, they got two of them.
03:46 You know these people?
03:47 No, they just moved in Friday night.
03:49 We're coming over to say hi.
03:51 What's their name?
03:54 Bron, Mr. and Mrs.
03:57 Look at this.
03:58 Bron, no Ukraine.
04:01 They're from the Ukraine.
04:04 That near Disney World?
04:06 No, Dip, it's near Russia.
04:08 I knew that.
04:10 Must have wanted these refrigerators pretty bad if they ordered them when they were still in Russia.
04:14 That's what they are? Refrigerators?
04:16 Uh-huh.
04:23 You just going to leave them?
04:24 Yep, that's what the order says.
04:26 Nobody home, leave them in the driveway.
04:29 See ya.
04:32 Come on.
04:34 That's weird.
04:35 What?
04:36 Their car's here.
04:38 They got to be home.
04:40 Why didn't they answer the door?
04:48 What if they're KGB agents who had to bolt when the Soviet Union crumbled?
04:52 Or gypsies searching for a new home?
04:55 Don't get real.
04:59 Hi, Mom.
05:00 I'm late.
05:01 Don't forget to tell your father about--
05:03 Oh, I'm sorry.
05:06 I'm late.
05:07 Bye.
05:09 Sorry, Mr. Mitchell.
05:11 Mom's in a rush.
05:12 She's a little crazy.
05:14 It's okay.
05:20 I know the feeling.
05:22 You okay?
05:24 Yeah.
05:25 I just got a touch of something.
05:27 I'm as weak as a kitten.
05:30 Well, the mail must go through.
05:34 Have you met the new neighbors yet?
05:37 Oh, yeah.
05:38 They stopped by my house the other night just to get acquainted.
05:42 That's the night I'll never forget.
05:45 Why? Were they strange or something?
05:47 No, it's the night I started getting sick.
05:51 I hope I can shake it off.
05:59 Emma started paying close attention to the bronze.
06:04 She watched them every chance she got.
06:08 And the more she watched, the more she realized
06:13 the new neighbors were just a little bit strange.
06:19 They didn't talk to anyone,
06:22 and no one ever saw them during the day, only at night.
06:27 Even their kid, Lex, was never seen during the day.
06:36 Hello.
06:41 Can I come in and play?
06:44 Um, it's kind of late.
06:47 Maybe some other time.
06:56 Lex never started school.
06:59 No one had even heard of him.
07:02 And the strange disease that hit Mr. Mitchell
07:05 was spreading through the neighborhood like crazy.
07:15 People were losing their energy.
07:18 It was like an epidemic going around,
07:20 but no one knew what it was.
07:23 And it started the same night the bronze moved in.
07:27 Things seemed very strange indeed.
07:34 Emma had a great imagination,
07:37 but this was a little weird, even for her.
07:42 Then one night, all the pieces of the puzzle came together.
07:55 [music]
08:16 [screams]
08:19 [music]
08:33 Wake up, Daddy, come on!
08:36 I can't go to school, Mom.
08:39 I'm sick.
08:43 Get up now!
08:46 What? What?
08:49 Give me that.
08:51 I know what's wrong with the bronze.
08:53 Me too, they have a crazy neighbor.
08:55 You.
08:57 Listen, why is it they're never out during the day?
09:00 And where are they from?
09:04 Here, Rovno, Ukraine.
09:07 That's right in the middle of all those E.I. places.
09:10 Romania, Bulgaria, Transylvania.
09:15 What about those people?
09:17 They're all getting sick, weak and pale,
09:19 and they'll have band-aids on their necks.
09:22 There's only one explanation.
09:24 What?
09:26 Our neighbors are vampires.
09:28 I'm dreaming.
09:30 No, you're not.
09:31 They're vampires, all right.
09:32 They've got to be.
09:34 There's no such thing as vampires.
09:37 Now go away!
09:40 Remember those big crates that guy delivered?
09:42 I think I know what was in them.
09:44 Two refrigerators.
09:46 I'll bet it was their coffins.
09:51 And I'm going to check tonight.
09:54 I'm going to wait till they leave,
09:56 then get into their basement.
09:58 If I find refrigerators, then I'm a jerk
10:00 and you can bust on me all you want.
10:02 But if I'm right and I find coffins,
10:05 then our neighbors are vampires
10:07 and we are in big-time trouble.
10:11 She's going into a vampire's basement at night?
10:16 Adios, Emma.
10:18 But they might not be vampires.
10:21 Then why are all those people getting sick?
10:24 Yeah, like blood was being sucked from their necks.
10:28 I love it!
10:30 What happened?
10:32 Emma didn't know for sure if they were vampires,
10:35 so she had to investigate.
10:37 And that night, she did.
10:42 Oh!
10:46 What are you doing?
10:49 Vampires don't like garlic.
10:51 Neither do I.
10:53 Maybe I'm a vampire.
10:56 We're safe as long as you remember one thing.
10:59 A vampire can't come into someone's home
11:01 unless it's been in danger.
11:03 So never, ever invite the bronze inside.
11:06 Got it?
11:08 Yeah, I'll try and remember that.
11:11 Good.
11:13 You're not really going into their basement, are you?
11:17 What if you get caught?
11:20 I won't.
11:22 Don't worry. Look.
11:24 They leave the same time every night.
11:27 Probably.
11:29 They leave the same time every night.
11:33 Probably in search of their next victims.
