Wicked Little Things Page #5

Last night.

She stayed in my room.

She likes to sleep in my bed.

It used to be hers.

When I made her bed,

there was this spot on the mattress.

I mean, it looks like someone

was sleeping here before we came.

So what are you saying?

This Mary chick is not

another one of Miss Weirdo's

imaginary friends like Frizzy?

She actually lives in the mines

with the other zombie freaks?

I know, it's crazy.

I don't even know

what I'm saying anymore.

Hell, I don't even know

what I'm doing half the time.

God, I keep on forgetting.

The water doesn't work again.

I can't believe the stupid plumber

can't come until tomorrow.

Quit your whining.

At least you got a bath today.

Half a bath, Mother.

Honey?

Are you okay?

Mary doesn't like to live

in there anymore.

She wants to come home.

Where did you get the doll?

Mary gave it to me.

Emma! Stop it.

Where did you really find it?

I told you! Mary gave it to me,

and I gave her Teddy.

Yeah!

Take a look here!

All right, let me grab a flashlight!

Sarah!

- What?

- Watch your sister.

I'll be right back!

We're going to have to blow out

the interior on that.

Take a look at those plans again.

I'll get them.

Hello?

Is anybody here?

Mr. Carlton?

Hello.

Oh, I'm sorry, I was--

I heard voices.

And?

And I was told the Carlton home

was around here.

And?

And I was wondering if it was you.

Well, now you know.

This is private land.

You're not supposed to be here.

My name is Karen Tunny.

I live nearby.

The old Tunny place, huh?

Yeah.

I'll give you two weeks to vacate it.

So you want to buy it?

I already own it.

I own everything

from here to Addytown.

No, I own it.

I inherited it.

I have a deed.

You have a miner's deed, a lease.

All rights to the land are mine.

Everything on it.

Animal, mineral, wood, brick, mine.

I'll give you and the others

two weeks to clear out.

You can tell Hanks to stop this nonsense

with the dead animals.

He doesn't scare anyone

with his old stories.

If I catch him doing it again,

I'll have him arrested.

Russell, let's go.

He's right.

He owns it all.

How can that be?

Just is.

Well, we'll get lawyers,

and we'll fight it.

Suit yourself.

The only way you're going

to get title is if he dies.

He's last in the Carlton line.

He dies...

and the land goes

to the miner's deed.

That's how it works.

There was a dead pig.

A carcass.

He said you did it.

Every night they come for redemption.

For his blood.

The evil he did made them

what they are,

and they hunger.

What if we have to move

like this guy says?

We won't, don't worry.

This is our home

and no one can make us move.

I won't go out tonight

if you don't want me to.

Oh, no, baby, go out.
