Don't Be Afraid of the Dark Page #2
Keep her out from the back of the house.
She could fall in.
We'd be in a hell of a mess.
I didn't do anything.
There's pits. Old wells.
It's dangerous for a child.
Mr. Harris is right, Sally. He knows.
His grandfather worked at the house.
- You shouldn't be back here.
- But I found a basement.
There is no basement.
Easy, Harris. I'll take her. It's okay.
It's there! It's right there!
There's a reason
this house is called Fallen Mill.
The English had a mill here,
and it fell into a sinkhole.
That's why most of the houses around here
don't have basements.
This one does.
- You may want to check this out.
- It's unsafe for a child.
Pull on that.
Look! I told you it was here!
Can you believe this?
This is definitely hollow.
I'm going to get some tools.
- You sure you want to do this now?
- Of course! You kidding?
We can fix this easy if we have to.
You may want to step back.
Mr. Hurst, I...
There's a door in here.
Where did you put the old house keys?
They're in your junk drawer in the office.
Okay.
Have a look.
Oh, wow.
- You be careful, Sally. Okay?
- Okay.
How the hell did we miss this?
That must be the garden window.
It's all of his paints and old
color pencils. This is amazing.
Wow. Alex, look at this.
Harris, did you know about this?
This place isn't safe. Especially for kids.
It's okay. I'll keep an eye on her.
This must be where Blackwood worked.
- Look at these sketches.
- It's an ash pit, I think.
Yeah. It's bolted shut.
These are incredible.
Okay. Let's go, Sally.
Come on, Sally. Let's go.
Sally, come on.
This must be like King Tut's tomb for you.
Which is why we shouldn't be touching
anything. This stuff must be valuable.
- She's gone.
- No, she will come back.
They always do.
Yes, they always do.
I don't think that's important, Alan.
No, I just need to make sure I get
the paintings and furniture
back in time for the dinner.
You told me you could.
Come on.
How long have we known each other?
I'll write you a post-dated check.
Hold on.
It's either walnut or mahogany,
I think. Yeah.
There you are.
I thought maybe we could bake scones.
I promised Mrs. Underhill
we wouldn't make too much of a mess.
No. That's all right.
What have you got there?
My doll. And my drawing stuff.
Looks like it's just you and I
baking scones today.
I made sandwiches for everyone.
Sally, open the grate.
Yes, open the grate. Set us free.
Who are you?
What do you look like?
We've been locked up for so long.
Set us free.
Come down.
You'll see what it's like down here.
Wait a minute, will ya?
There's other children down here.
They're just like you.
Come and play with them.
