00:00 (thunder rumbling)
00:03 (children laughing)
00:06 - Uh, heights.
00:31 I'm not good with heights.
00:33 I, uh, I get sick.
00:35 - Dogs.
00:38 I was bitten when I was a kid.
00:41 Anytime I see one, I cross the street.
00:45 - Birds.
00:48 - Birds?
00:50 - I'm afraid they're gonna fly in my face or something.
00:54 - Weird.
00:55 - The attic.
00:59 The attic.
01:00 I can't go up there alone.
01:04 No way.
01:05 Slasher movies.
01:08 - That doesn't count.
01:09 - Cheap.
01:10 What can I say?
01:12 I'm not afraid of anything.
01:14 - Yeah.
01:15 We'll see.
01:16 - So what are you afraid of, tough guy?
01:18 That box?
01:19 - It's no secret.
01:27 (dramatic music)
01:30 - I'm afraid of the dark.
01:32 - Yes, he admits it.
01:34 - We've all got something that scares us
01:38 even though it shouldn't.
01:41 You know there's nothing in the attic that can get you.
01:43 You know a bird can't hurt you.
01:45 But there's still some dark place inside
01:49 that makes your hands sweat
01:51 and your mouth go dry.
01:55 This story's about fear.
01:58 The kind that's different for everyone.
02:00 The kind that you have to face up to.
02:03 Or it'll eat you alive.
02:06 Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society,
02:13 I call this story
02:15 The Tale of the Dangerous Suit.
02:20 (dramatic music)
02:23 - Hello?
02:32 Hey.
02:34 I can't get out of here.
02:36 - Sit down, please.
02:38 - Yeah, okay.
02:45 I'll bite.
02:45 (dramatic music)
02:48 - Great.
02:51 Now what?
02:53 - It knows what scares you.
02:59 - Hey, come on.
03:04 - It knows what scares you.
03:07 (laughing)
03:11 (dramatic music)
03:14 - Hello, welcome to the Wild Boar.
03:26 Your table's ready.
03:27 - It's fabulous.
03:39 He's outdone himself.
03:42 This is the best soup I've ever had.
03:45 - Bon appetit.
03:48 Hi.
03:53 We have specials tonight.
03:55 - Don't bother.
03:56 We came for the soup.
03:58 - Oh.
03:59 What a surprise.
04:02 (water running)
04:08 (chattering)
04:10 - Two sips, table six.
04:15 - I'm telling you, 100 bucks for a bowl of soup.
04:20 If I had that kind of cash,
04:21 I would not be spending it on a bowl of soup.
04:24 - I say it's worth it.
04:25 - I'm sorry, but no soup is worth it.
04:28 - Sorry, Jersey.
04:31 - You wanna watch with that stuff?
04:34 - Relax, it's okay.
04:36 I'm not picking those up.
04:38 I don't touch knives, okay?
04:40 - I'm sorry.
04:41 - Jersey, what are you doing?
04:50 - I just want another taste.
04:52 - You'll get fired for that.
04:54 Come on.
04:55 - Could we order a second serving now?
05:04 - Sorry.
05:05 - Your customer.
05:06 (cheering)
05:11 - Honored guests, your admiration of my humble fare
05:20 is most appreciated.
05:24 (applause)
05:27 (soft music)
05:34 (soft music)
05:36 - I'm looking for the wild boar.
05:51 - You found it.
05:52 You hear about the job?
05:54 - Yeah.
05:55 - Great.
05:57 I'm Nani Walker, hostess and part-time bookkeeper.
06:01 - Read.
06:03 - Read, Nani.
06:04 - So, did you ever work in a restaurant before?
06:11 - I've had a lot of jobs.
06:13 So what's this place like?
06:17 - It's okay.
06:19 Dr. Vink is kind of--
06:20 - Dr. Fink?
06:22 - Vink with a V, V, V.
06:23 He's the boss.
06:25 He does everything.
06:27 The menu, the--
06:28 - So what is he?
06:29 Is he a doctor or is he a cook?
06:31 - For those sage enough to know,
06:34 I am a chef.
06:36 A cook feeds the stomach.
06:39 A chef nourishes the soul.
06:43 - So what am I supposed to be, impressed or something?
06:50 - Interesting.
06:55 You may do.
07:00 - Come on.
07:01 Looks like enough egg to me.
07:08 - A chef is an artist.
07:19 The kitchen is his studio.
07:23 And these vegetables, fruits, spices,
07:29 these are his medium.
07:31 Combined by the seasoned hand of an epicure,
07:43 the result is a feast for the senses.
07:46 Taste.
07:49 - What is it?
07:56 - A specialty of the huts, le potage d'angere.
07:59 - The dangerous soup.
08:01 Taste.
08:05 - That's pretty good.
08:15 - My friend, the flavor dances over the palate
08:18 in a symphony of sensation that's far from pretty good.
08:23 - And he charges $100 a bowl.
08:26 - Get out of here.
08:27 - A small price to pay for the supply.
08:30 - Wait, let me have another taste.
08:33 - One taste to educate the palate.
08:36 Try to sneak another and I guarantee you'll regret it.
08:46 - You don't scare me.
08:54 - Perfect.
08:55 You'll do nicely.
08:57 And I am not a nut bag.
09:02 - Reed needed this job pretty bad.
09:17 He didn't have any family, so he was pretty much on his own.
09:21 He mostly kept to himself.
09:23 And never let anyone help him do anything.
09:26 - It's okay.
09:27 - Ever.
09:28 It was an okay place to work,
09:34 except every once in a while, somebody would just quit.
09:38 No reason, they'd suddenly take off and never look back.
09:44 Strange.
09:47 But Dr. Fink's restaurant was the most popular in town.
09:53 People came from all over just to sample the dangerous soup.
09:57 I'm out of here, see you tomorrow.
10:04 (clattering)
10:07 - Man, this is good.
10:30 - What are you doing?
10:33 (dramatic music)
10:35 - Did you taste my soup?
10:38 - No, he didn't.
10:41 He...
10:43 He was just cleaning the stove.
10:47 - Dr. Fink!
10:48 No way!
10:51 I don't do dishes, I wait tables.
10:53 - So you've told me.
10:58 Alas, my dear, your job description has just been changed.
11:02 (door closing)
11:04 - Noni.
11:05 Thank you.
11:08 - Forget it.
11:10 - Wait.
11:12 I mean, for everything.
11:20 You've been really cool to me since I got here.
11:24 And I've been, I've been kind of a slug.
11:30 - Yeah, I noticed.
11:32 - My dear, you have proven to be far too loud
11:36 for the tastes of my guests.
11:41 - Loud?
11:44 Loud?
11:46 I'll show you loud!
11:51 What's going on?
11:56 - No, wait, wait, please.
11:59 I finally got the guts to say this to you, so.
12:03 I've always had to do things on my own.
12:08 And I'm not used to people being very nice to me.
12:14 And I'm...
12:17 I'm sorry.
12:20 - Please!
12:26 Please, my dear!
12:27 You misunderstand!
12:29 (laughing)
12:34 By transferring you to the kitchen,
12:37 I was planning on making you my protégé.
12:42 - Thank you.
12:44 - Indeed not.
12:45 The secret ingredient of my soup
12:50 is known to only a select few.
12:52 And you, you, my dear,
12:57 have been chosen to join the ranks of the Enlightened.
13:01 If you're interested.
13:04 - Really?
13:08 There's nothing in that freezer.
13:13 - I assure you, my secret lies within.
13:16 And it's yours to experience.
13:19 (dramatic music)
13:22 (gun firing)
13:36 - What's going on?
13:38 - Sit down, please.
13:43 - What is this?
13:46 - You want my secret?
13:48 Sit down, please.
13:50 - Man, you are the strangest.
13:57 - It knows what scares you.
14:14 (dramatic music)
14:17 (eerie music)
14:19 the secret ingredient of my soup.
14:22 (dramatic music)
14:25 - Ben!
14:35 (laughing)
14:42 - It knows what scares you.
14:51 (laughing)
14:53 - What are you doing?
15:02 - Don't.
15:03 You, you, you can't open the door now.
15:06 - Very well, open it.
15:19 (door opening)
15:21 - Are you okay?
15:22 - Yeah.
15:24 - What happened?
15:27 - Well, you were screaming.
15:30 - I was?
15:32 - Yeah.
15:33 - Man, it's like I blinked or something.
15:36 I need to get out of here.
15:37 - Jersey.
15:38 What is going on?
15:43 - You better start talking, pal.
15:47 - You intrigue me, lad.
15:49 You're not like the others.
15:52 I believe it's time to share the secret of my soup.
15:57 Perhaps it will help to explain what you've just witnessed.
16:02 During my travels, I once happened upon a tribe
16:09 of savage warriors who never raised the sword in anger.
16:14 For they had a weapon far more powerful.
16:18 A statue, a talisman, enchanted with an incredible power.
16:23 This magic statue actually had the power
16:32 to feed on fear.
16:34 - What?
16:36 - Oh yes.
16:38 It could reach into your mind
16:41 and actually create your deepest fear.
16:44 It was only an illusion.
16:48 But the more you believed in it,
16:51 the more real it would become.
16:54 - What's this got to do with your soup?
16:56 - This talisman not only summoned fear from its enemies,
17:00 it drew it from them like a precious elixir.
17:07 The tribe would drink the fear of its enemies
17:10 to gain their strength.
17:12 A single drop is enough to make the pulse quicken
17:19 and the blood flow.
17:20 When you taste my soup, you're tasting fear.
17:25 And that's a taste you won't soon forget.
17:29 - That's why everyone quits.
17:31 You've been scaring them to get the ingredient.
17:34 - Wait a minute.
17:35 You don't believe all this, do you?
17:38 - You're quite the tough one, aren't you?
17:42 - I told you before, you don't scare me.
17:47 - Then let's see what does.
17:49 Shall we?
17:50 - Let's get out of here, okay?
17:59 - What's the problem, lad?
18:01 (suspenseful music)
18:04 - No longer feeling brave?
18:09 - Come on.
18:13 - No.
18:16 Someone's gotta stand up to this guy.
18:19 (suspenseful music)
18:22 - Observe, my dear.
18:35 This should be interesting.
18:37 It knows what scares you.
18:48 - I'm sorry, Vink.
18:50 You're not gonna get to me that easily.
18:53 - That's what I'm counting on.
18:56 The stronger the subject, the more powerful the elixir.
19:00 What have we here?
19:06 What lies deep inside?
19:09 I'm seeing a scared little boy.
19:17 An orphan.
19:19 - I'm not buying this.
19:20 - Raised by an uncle.
19:22 He was a cruel man
19:27 who treated you very harshly.
19:31 What happened to him, lad?
19:36 Yes.
19:39 Remember now, don't you?
19:43 (suspenseful music)
19:46 - How did you do that?
19:49 - Have a look.
19:50 (suspenseful music)
19:53 - Stop it, let him out.
20:03 (suspenseful music)
20:06 - No, you can't resist.
20:11 (suspenseful music)
20:14 (screaming)
20:39 (suspenseful music)
20:42 - Raise.
20:52 - No, my blood is fading.
20:54 (screaming)
20:57 You've unleashed it.
21:04 - What?
21:05 - It grew stronger when he's speaking.
21:07 And now it's out.
21:09 I managed to contain it.
21:11 But now that it's out, it can feed at will.
21:15 - You mean that thing can terrorize anybody?
21:17 - Yes, that's what it does.
21:19 I must stop it.
21:20 - How?
21:21 - I don't know.
21:24 I just pray I'm not too late.
21:27 - What should we do?
21:35 - I don't know.
21:36 We gotta call somebody.
21:38 We gotta warn them.
21:39 - And say what?
21:40 There's a magic demon on the loose and it's gonna tear.
21:44 What happened?
21:49 Reed?
21:53 I think it's back.
21:56 - Maybe it never left.
22:00 Come on.
22:06 - It wants us, Reed.
22:07 It wants to feed on us.
22:08 - We can't let it.
22:09 Clear your mind.
22:11 Don't think about what scares you.
22:12 Do you remember what things say?
22:15 (electricity crackling)
22:35 (screaming)
22:37 - It's getting stronger.
22:41 - We can't let it.
22:42 We gotta--
22:43 - No.
22:44 (screaming)
22:49 - Nonny.
22:55 Are you okay?
23:06 - No, I'm not.
23:07 - You gotta relax, Nonny.
23:10 Don't think about what scares you, okay?
23:13 - Yeah, but--
23:14 - You're safe in there.
23:15 There's nothing in there that can get you.
23:18 - Reed, I gotta get out of here.
23:21 - There's nothing in there to be afraid of.
23:24 - No, you don't understand.
23:27 I hate closed places.
23:28 It's the room that scares me.
23:33 (screaming)
23:36 - Reed!
23:39 - It's an illusion.
23:41 - Reed!
23:42 Reed!
23:43 Reed, you gotta get me out of here.
23:45 - You gotta fight it.
23:47 - I can't.
23:49 I can't.
23:50 Reed, please.
23:51 - Face your fear, Nonny.
23:53 Face your fear. - Reed!
23:55 I can't.
23:56 - Face your fear.
23:57 It can't get you.
23:58 - Reed.
24:01 Reed, it's not you.
24:03 - Face your fear.
24:04 - Reed, please.
24:06 There's nothing.
24:07 - Face your fear.
24:10 Not real.
24:30 (dramatic music)
24:32 You're an illusion.
24:36 - Reed, help me.
24:38 - Get away from me.
24:39 You're not real.
24:44 You're a nightmare.
24:47 I don't believe in you.
24:52 - Reed, help me.
24:54 (screaming)
24:56 - You're not gonna hurt me anymore.
24:59 (dramatic music)
25:02 - Nonny.
25:12 Nonny.
25:14 You okay?
25:22 - Dad, what happened?
25:24 - It's over.
25:26 It's all over.
25:27 I based my fear.
25:29 I broke the spell.
25:30 I don't think Vic's gonna be making it anymore.
25:33 It was dangerous.
25:35 - That's where you're wrong, my friend.
25:39 It still knows what scares you.
25:42 (dramatic music)
25:47 I plan on being in business
25:57 for a long, long time.
25:59 (laughing)
26:03 - The end.
26:10 - Great.
26:12 Good story.
26:13 That's weak.
26:17 What if there's nothing you're afraid of?
26:19 The room wouldn't work.
26:21 - That's right.
26:22 Nothing scares you, does it?
26:24 Maybe you should be the first to reach into the unknown.
26:28 - What's in it?
26:33 - What's the difference?
26:35 You're not scared of anything anyway.
26:38 - Yeah, that's right.
26:54 - Forget it.
26:55 - So, what's in it?
27:01 - Exactly what Tucker's afraid of.
27:04 - Nothing.
27:08 - Very good.
27:18 - Awesome story.
