1
00:00:00.880 --> 00:00:05.000
It's true that the holidays makes everything feel different, whether

2
00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:08.839
it's your neighborhood or the local stores, the shopping mall,

3
00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:13.839
or even murder Mansion. Bethany and Harpy are about to

4
00:00:13.880 --> 00:00:18.359
face vengeful spirits, uncover dark secrets, and battle for their

5
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:22.800
own survival, and learn the meaning of Christmas.

6
00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:27.079
What's that you want to be scared?

7
00:00:28.359 --> 00:00:29.000
Come with me.

8
00:00:35.759 --> 00:00:42.399
You will experience tales over our ghosts and death. It

9
00:00:42.479 --> 00:00:45.640
is not recommended at the foot of week at hard heart,

10
00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:49.640
listen us in the dark.

11
00:00:50.520 --> 00:01:03.000
It's more fun at that way. Way. This is Weekly Speaking. Hello,

12
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:07.840
my spookys, It's Wednesday, and you know what that means.

13
00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:12.519
It's time for a little spooky in your weekly. I'm

14
00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:15.719
your host and narrator, Enrique Kuto, and yes, yes, yes,

15
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:21.040
the holiday season truly is in full force, and I

16
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:24.840
am happily getting into the spirit. In fact, as you're

17
00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:28.359
listening to this, I'll be traversing the East Coast, visiting

18
00:01:28.359 --> 00:01:31.480
with friends all along the way and just trying to

19
00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:34.359
have a little bit of relaxation because it's been a

20
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:37.480
wild year, but I'm happy to spend it with you. Also,

21
00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:41.200
don't worry while I'm out of town. The show will

22
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:44.640
go on, and thank you so much for listening. By

23
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.480
the way, we have so much holiday cheer to share

24
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:50.439
with you in the form of spooky stories, and we're

25
00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:52.359
very happy to have you here. And I want to

26
00:01:52.359 --> 00:01:56.319
remind you we have another short story compilation themed to

27
00:01:56.439 --> 00:02:00.959
Christmas coming out tomorrow and on Friday, we have a

28
00:02:01.079 --> 00:02:06.519
very festive story by splatter Joe Solmo himself called Holiday

29
00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:10.960
Homecoming Hulla Balloon. So make sure you're subscribed on your

30
00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:14.520
favorite podcasting app and while you're there, leave us five stars.

31
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:16.759
It really helps the show. And if you want to

32
00:02:16.759 --> 00:02:19.919
hang out with other spookies like yourself, head to Facebook

33
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:23.439
and type in weekly Spooky's Tomb of Terror. We'd love

34
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:26.039
to have you hang out with us. But now it's

35
00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:30.199
about time we head back to Strickfield because Christmas is

36
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:33.479
supposed to be a time of joy, a season of

37
00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:37.719
peace and giving. But what if the past refuse to

38
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:41.080
stay buried? What if the echoes of old grudges and

39
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:46.599
unfulfilled vengeance rose from the grave, haunting those who thought

40
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:52.280
they were safe. Tonight's story involves young Bethany and her bold,

41
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:57.159
unpredictable sister of sorts, Harpie, who were pulled into a

42
00:02:57.159 --> 00:03:01.599
twisted holiday nightmare that leads them back to Murder Mansion,

43
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:04.479
a place where ghosts of the past don't just haunt

44
00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:09.919
the holes, they hunt. So get comfortable, get cozy, and

45
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:19.599
we'll start this story right after this Christmas at Murder

46
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:27.680
Mansion by Rob Fields perspective, Harpy, it's gonna be Christmas

47
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:30.719
in another couple of days. Harpy's got to admit to

48
00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:33.800
be an all giddy when it's Christmas time. Right now,

49
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:37.360
Harpy's working on a new job, also my first job

50
00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:41.199
here at Strickfield Town and sent a mall. Harpy's a

51
00:03:41.199 --> 00:03:45.439
security guard working nights. How'd that happen? You ask? Well,

52
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:48.360
a few days ago, Bethy, the other half a Harpy,

53
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:51.879
was eating some large pizzas at Scatto's in the food court.

54
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:56.080
Of course, Bethy couldn't be left alone. This gang comes

55
00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:58.919
running out of nowhere with both Harmony Mirren, the owner

56
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.000
of the mall, and a bunch of security guards chasing them.

57
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:05.000
Then one of the fuckers grabs Bethy and yanks her

58
00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:07.960
to him. The gang's using Bethy as a shield to

59
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:11.360
get the guards to back off. Bethy was real scared

60
00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:15.240
at being held hostage. Then she screamed and tried getting away.

61
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:18.120
One of those fuckers caught her and threw her under

62
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:21.800
the table. Bethy got real mad and had no objections

63
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:26.240
whatsoever to let an old Harpy out. Funny thing. Bethy

64
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:29.399
and me kind of look alike, but we got differences.

65
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:34.360
Bethy's shoulder length red hair changed to long, flowing violet hair.

66
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:38.920
Bethy's green eyes became Harpy's red ones. Also, I removed

67
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:43.199
Bethy's sixties cad eye glasses and put them away. In all,

68
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:46.519
Bethy looks like a plain Jane kind of girl. Harpy

69
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:49.920
looks like one of them manga girls. Get yourself some

70
00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:54.240
Japanese comics and you'll get an idea at Harpy's bodily dimensions.

71
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:57.519
But let me tell you, Harpy turned the tables on

72
00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:01.879
that gang fast. Harpy's much stronger than Bethy and adapts

73
00:05:01.879 --> 00:05:05.199
to things. By the time Harpy's finished, the gang's learned

74
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:09.199
you never fuck with a chick from Brooklyn. After Harpy

75
00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:12.600
finished save in the Day, that wicked harmony, mirror tells

76
00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:16.639
the guards, I want that Harley Quinn Squawker arrested too.

77
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:23.319
I gasped. Squawker, squawker. Then I grabbed the rich bitch.

78
00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:26.480
I'll give you a squawker. Then I got all them

79
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:30.199
tasers pointing right at me. Yeah, Harpy knows what tasers

80
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:33.720
are like. So Harpy lets go a Harmony mirror and

81
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:38.079
raises her hands. Okay, okay, put him down. Harpy'll come

82
00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:42.720
along quietly. Of course, Harpy grabbed the rest of Bethany's

83
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:45.920
last pizza on the go. When we reached the rich

84
00:05:45.959 --> 00:05:50.279
Bitch's office, Harmony has two guards. Bring Harpy in. Harmony

85
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:54.079
pointed to a chair in front of her desk. Sit you, squawker,

86
00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:58.279
Harpy satin crossed her legs. Glad Bethy was wearing a

87
00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:01.879
mini skirt. After starting the last slice of pizza, I

88
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:05.160
tossed the box at Harmony. What you want with Harpy,

89
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:09.519
rich bitch? I snap. Harmony knocked the box away and

90
00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:12.959
slammed her palms on the desk to lock you up

91
00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:16.560
forever and ever. Oh, I haven't forgotten you trying to

92
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:19.920
have a slumber party in my mall, playing PlayStation at

93
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:23.720
best Buy and eating all the snacks. Harmony sat down.

94
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:28.560
I only let you go because you got my baby

95
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:31.160
back when that thing grabbed her and took her into

96
00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:35.240
the backwoods of Strickfield. Also, you paid for the damages

97
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:38.399
you caused. She puts her fist under her chin and

98
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:42.759
gave Arpi a devilish grin. What to do with you? Now?

99
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:47.000
That is the question? Want me to call the police,

100
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:51.160
one of the guards asks. Suddenly, her queen ship got

101
00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:54.240
mad as hell and sprang to her feet. You didn't

102
00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:57.240
call them to come get those pieces of shit out there.

103
00:06:57.879 --> 00:07:01.240
She bawled her fists and screamed at the sea. Then

104
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:05.519
she glared at the guard. Are you seriously fucking kidding me?

105
00:07:05.639 --> 00:07:10.519
Right now? She pointed to the door. Get out. The

106
00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:16.360
guard left fast. Yeah, Harpy's harpy, but Harmony is a harpy.

107
00:07:16.959 --> 00:07:20.240
She finally calmed down and pointed to the door. That

108
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:24.800
is the incompetence I've got working for me. You had

109
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:28.199
him get Harpy, didn't you, I asked. Finishing the slice

110
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:31.600
of pizza, she slammed her hands on the desk again.

111
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:35.240
You let them get you. I saw how you handled

112
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:40.199
those rowdy kids single handedly. Yeah, Harpy went along quietly

113
00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:43.199
because she didn't want no tasers, juicing her up again.

114
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:47.360
So what you want with Harpy, rich bitch? I ask again.

115
00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:51.959
Harmony gets hisself calm again before looking back at Harpy.

116
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:57.759
I can't believe I'm doing this. Ah, I'm offering you

117
00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:02.720
a job here at my mall as my head of security.

118
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:07.560
Oh did Harpy ever start laughing? It up? Probably the

119
00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:11.480
most Harpy's ever laughed in her lifetime. When Harpy's finished,

120
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:16.959
Harmony's face didn't change? You serious? Then I raised my

121
00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:20.920
hands in front of me. Nothing doing, rich bitch. Harpy

122
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:25.199
ain't running shit detail for you. I'll pay you good money,

123
00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:30.399
Harmony states, and give you benefits. But Harpy can't be

124
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:34.080
here during the day. I tell her, Harpy only comes

125
00:08:34.120 --> 00:08:38.559
out at night. Harmony pointed right at Harpy, and that

126
00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:42.360
is what I'd hire you for. You'll be in charge

127
00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:45.279
of my imbeciles in the evening and guard them all

128
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.960
at night. Then she says what she's willing to give Harpy.

129
00:08:49.759 --> 00:08:51.879
I was ready to walk out till I heard Bethy

130
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:55.159
in my head. Take the job, Harpy. You know how

131
00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:58.360
much you love it here. But what about you, Bethy,

132
00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:01.240
I think back. Don't you want time? At night for

133
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:05.799
yourself too, And exactly what would I do with my time?

134
00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:09.279
All I do is study, work at the campus library

135
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:12.279
and go eat. Plus, we agreed you would have the

136
00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:15.240
night and I would have the day. Unless they're going

137
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:18.279
to need you here during the day, go ahead and

138
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:23.240
take the job. I looked at Harmony again. I guess

139
00:09:23.279 --> 00:09:28.360
you talked Harpy into it. When does Harpy start? Harmony

140
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:33.399
points right at Harpy right now. Now Harpy gets to

141
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:37.559
hang out at this glamorous mall all she wants. Yeah,

142
00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:41.600
the guards didn't like Harmony appointing Harpy as their new

143
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:44.919
queen bitch. As long as they don't fuck with Harpy,

144
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:48.320
I won't put them in their place. Only thing Harpy

145
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:52.360
hates is wearing a uniform. At least Harpy gets to

146
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:56.200
carry your very own taser now, oh and a radio

147
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:02.240
and shiny handcuffs. Bethy's right, Harpy really does love this mall.

148
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.360
Don't go away weekly, Spooky will be right back.

149
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:17.639
Perspective, Bethany, it's Christmas Eve now. Harmony asked Carpi to

150
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:21.120
start working around noon today. As soon as we enter

151
00:10:21.159 --> 00:10:24.639
the mall, we can see why everybody and his brother

152
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:27.240
and sister and their two friends and their second cousins

153
00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:31.639
are here. Last minute Christmas shopping always brings everybody out,

154
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:35.720
it seems. Anyway, I myself am here early to fill up.

155
00:10:36.519 --> 00:10:40.039
Both Harpie and I need the nourishment. Even today, we

156
00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:42.480
still have to eat lots of food, the same way

157
00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:46.960
Shaggy Rogers does in Scooby Doo. Like Shaggy, I'm also

158
00:10:47.080 --> 00:10:50.600
quite skinny. At first, I thought I was having multiple

159
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:54.960
personality disorder, especially back at that haunted mansion a few

160
00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:58.480
years ago. It's known as grim Manor, But after that

161
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:03.399
horrible night I had there, I call it Murder Mansion. Honestly,

162
00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:05.960
I think I might have died there if it hadn't

163
00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:08.879
been for Harpy. All I had to do was see

164
00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:16.000
those spiders, and ah, I hate spiders. Anyway, I fainted

165
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:19.480
when I saw those spiders in the attic black widows.

166
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:22.879
That would have killed me for sure. Harpy emerged and

167
00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:26.480
got us out of that situation. After we left Murder

168
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:30.399
Mansion in the morning, we went to Denoyer's grill. We

169
00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:33.960
filled up on several breakfast platters. Harpy and I were

170
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:38.039
at odds again. Then that incident happened here at the

171
00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:41.039
mall where I got picked on and Harpy got out.

172
00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:44.440
She loved the mall and wanted to be free, so

173
00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:48.919
she decided to have that slumber party Harmony Mirron mentioned earlier.

174
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:53.159
Harpy got detained by both cops and security guards and

175
00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:57.120
was held in Harmony's office. Not long after this, very

176
00:11:57.200 --> 00:12:00.960
big ghoul broke into that office and took Harmony's child.

177
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:04.480
Harpy and I had to put our differences aside and

178
00:12:04.600 --> 00:12:09.159
go save little Melanie. And result, Harpy saved the baby,

179
00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:13.120
and Harpy and I came to an understanding and agreed

180
00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:18.399
we'd share our body. Getting back to now, I have

181
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:23.320
three extra large pizzas with everything, including lots of cheese

182
00:12:23.679 --> 00:12:26.360
that I just ordered from Scatto's in the food court.

183
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:29.200
There are times when I hate having to eat the

184
00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:31.639
way I do, which I'm sure is part of the

185
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:35.279
reason why guys don't want anything to do with me. Also,

186
00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:38.799
they don't like that I'm far superior to them, not

187
00:12:38.960 --> 00:12:41.879
to toot my own horn. For the record, I do

188
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:45.320
go out and have fun. I still enter escape room

189
00:12:45.360 --> 00:12:49.679
contests and win money, even after what happened at Murder mansion.

190
00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:53.879
I still love doing them. I feel they stimulate my

191
00:12:54.240 --> 00:12:59.399
mutant brain. Also, I'm a freelance detective who solves mysteries

192
00:12:59.399 --> 00:13:03.279
for police to apartments when they need help. Getting back

193
00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:06.120
to eating, I'd be lying if I said I didn't

194
00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:10.039
enjoy all the delicious food. What's even better is that

195
00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:13.399
we don't ever put on weight. On the other hand,

196
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:16.759
if we don't eat when we need to, the hunger

197
00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:20.799
pangs can hurt like hell. If we go too long

198
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:26.039
without eating, we can feel some serious pain and eventually die.

199
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:31.159
That's what comes with having an ultra high metabolism. Then

200
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:34.799
there's those damn sorority girls who keep calling me Bethany

201
00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:38.480
the bore, and those stupid fraternity guys who make fun

202
00:13:38.519 --> 00:13:41.240
of me because I dress like I'm from the sixties.

203
00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:43.960
Maybe I should just say the hell with it and

204
00:13:44.039 --> 00:13:48.480
let Harpy out full time. I muttered to myself, Ah,

205
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:51.200
come on, Bethy, quit me in so hard on yourself.

206
00:13:51.639 --> 00:13:55.559
I hear Harpy in my mind. I sigh, Am I

207
00:13:55.639 --> 00:13:59.679
that transparent? I think back, Give me a break, sissy.

208
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:02.639
We're only twin sisters that got to share a body

209
00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:06.720
forever and ever, we also share the same Noggin. Even

210
00:14:06.759 --> 00:14:09.000
though we do our own thinking and can keep our

211
00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:14.559
thoughts to ourselves, don't forget we see everything together. I

212
00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:17.840
sigh and feel a little better. To be honest, I'm

213
00:14:17.919 --> 00:14:20.759
used to having you with me by now, Harpy. You're

214
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:24.639
my sister, but at the same time, you're the only

215
00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:29.200
real friend I've gotten this world. Go figure, we're two

216
00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:33.519
souls living in one body. Will be okay, We'll make

217
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:38.080
it work, right, What choice we got, sissy, Harpy replies.

218
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:42.679
I finally finish the pizzas I suppose. I could probably

219
00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:45.320
order another one, but I don't want to make Harpy

220
00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.879
late for work. After throwing the boxes away, we head

221
00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:51.799
towards the mall exit to get to where the security

222
00:14:51.840 --> 00:15:00.720
office is. Harpy spent her shift patrolling them all. It

223
00:15:00.879 --> 00:15:04.039
ended up being a good day for Christmas Eve, and

224
00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:07.200
nobody got out of line. Harpy had to straighten out

225
00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:09.240
a few of the other guards when she caught them

226
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:13.279
slacking off. Harmony mer and Sure was happy to see

227
00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:17.840
her latest investment paying off. Since Harpy is staying here

228
00:15:17.879 --> 00:15:21.360
all night, she gets to enjoy all the Christmas decorations

229
00:15:21.399 --> 00:15:25.559
and animatronics that remain on. It's not Harpy's job to

230
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:28.799
turn them off. A couple of times we've seen Harmony

231
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:32.639
actually admiring them like they were touching her inner child.

232
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:38.440
Harpy's been patrolling and hanging around. It's nearly midnight. It'll

233
00:15:38.440 --> 00:15:42.639
be Christmas in just a few short minutes. Suddenly I

234
00:15:42.720 --> 00:15:47.799
feel myself coming back out Harpy. I ask, what are

235
00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:51.919
you doing? Go ahead and enjoy the Christmas stuff. She

236
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:56.360
tells me, you know ya wanna. She's right. I love

237
00:15:56.440 --> 00:15:59.960
Christmas just as much as Harpy. Harmony never spares any

238
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:03.399
the expense when it comes to the holidays, especially these

239
00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:08.679
moving scenes. Thank you, Harpy, I think to her. I

240
00:16:08.759 --> 00:16:11.720
put my glasses on and admire the mall while closed

241
00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:16.120
yet still lit up like a Christmas wonderland. Now I'm

242
00:16:16.159 --> 00:16:20.120
at Center Court and really admiring the big tree with

243
00:16:20.240 --> 00:16:24.639
its bright lights and beautiful decorations. Of course, I'm not

244
00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:30.559
paying attention. When Harmony Miron's golf cart pulls up, she

245
00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:34.519
points right at us. You can't be here. The mall's closed,

246
00:16:34.879 --> 00:16:37.799
and what are you doing in a security uniform? I

247
00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:41.120
hold up our hands in front of us. I'm leaving

248
00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:45.240
right now. When I run. Harmony immediately moves her cart

249
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.120
in front of me. No, I'm taking you to the

250
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:52.399
security office and calling the police. Then she gets on

251
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:57.879
her radio, Harpy, where are you? When she obviously doesn't answer,

252
00:16:58.519 --> 00:17:02.320
she gets upset. Where are you, squawker? You're spending the

253
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:04.680
night here at the mall. That's part of your job

254
00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:10.680
as nighttime security. You're stuck here with me. I'm ready

255
00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:13.240
to run to where Harmony can't see me so I

256
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:17.279
can let Harpy back out. Suddenly, Harmony blocks me with

257
00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:20.480
her cart again when she starts yelling at me. I

258
00:17:20.519 --> 00:17:25.039
hear my sister, Bethy, look to you left as Harmony

259
00:17:25.079 --> 00:17:28.240
grabs my arm and shakes me. I listen to Harpy

260
00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:33.160
and look to see see what the hell are they

261
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:37.559
doing here? I choke out. Harpy and I can't believe

262
00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:42.640
we're seeing those three walking here inside Strickfield Town Center Mall.

263
00:17:43.799 --> 00:17:46.680
Those are the three detectives we met up with at

264
00:17:46.759 --> 00:17:51.640
Murder Mansion two years ago on July fourth, Ed Smith,

265
00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:59.160
Brian Davenport, and John Riddle. Last we checked, they're ghosts.

266
00:17:59.759 --> 00:18:02.720
They died that night, just before Harpy and I ended

267
00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:06.359
up at Murder Mansion. You just know this is not

268
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:15.680
going to be good perspective, Harpye. Let's turn back the

269
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:19.240
clock a few years to July fourth, when Bethy was

270
00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:22.480
on her way back from Shore City. She won top

271
00:18:22.519 --> 00:18:26.440
prize in an escape room contest there. She just wanted

272
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:30.920
to get back to Strickfield and get to Denoyer's grill. Unfortunately,

273
00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:35.160
Bethy drove into a real bad storm. She kept her

274
00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:38.720
cool and stayed on the asphalt. When she saw the

275
00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:41.480
bridge she had to cross to get back into Strickfield

276
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:44.839
got washed out by the storm. Well, she had to

277
00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:48.839
take a detour. Unfortunately we ended up in the backwoods

278
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:52.319
of Strickfield. Then this burnout car was right in the

279
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:55.480
middle of the road. Bethy couldn't stop in time and

280
00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:59.319
hit it. From there, she left the car to find shelter.

281
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:04.640
She soon found grim Manor, a haunted plantation house like

282
00:19:04.799 --> 00:19:07.880
right out of the Civil War era. The house let

283
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:13.119
Bethy in and kept her us inside. Yeah, Bethy's been

284
00:19:13.160 --> 00:19:16.720
referring to us as us, so it's only fair, Harpy

285
00:19:16.839 --> 00:19:21.119
does the same. Right. Anyway, we walk until we reached

286
00:19:21.160 --> 00:19:25.640
the living room. That's where Bethy sees those detectives. Come

287
00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:29.400
to think of it, those idiots never met Harpy. Long

288
00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:33.039
story short, Bethy solved all the escape rooms in the

289
00:19:33.079 --> 00:19:37.839
mansion with a little help from Harpy. Bethy also determined

290
00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:43.119
everybody we met at grim Manor were ghosts. Yeah, that

291
00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:48.720
even included Ed Smith, Brian Davenport, and John Riddle. See.

292
00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:52.319
Bethy determined those idiots died on their way here to

293
00:19:52.359 --> 00:19:57.000
look for Beauregard Grim's fortune years ago. Bethy accidentally got

294
00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:01.039
them all fired when she solved cases those morerons should

295
00:20:01.039 --> 00:20:04.880
have been able to solve. After that, they tried challenging

296
00:20:04.960 --> 00:20:08.160
Bethy in escape rooms and couldn't beat her at those either.

297
00:20:09.119 --> 00:20:11.720
Guess they found they was good at treasure hunting because

298
00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:14.839
they made the papers with all the treasures they uncovered.

299
00:20:15.640 --> 00:20:18.480
Grim Manor was one treasure hunt. They should have looked

300
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:22.119
the other way on See, the one driving the car

301
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:25.799
wasn't slowing down in the storm, He lost control, hit

302
00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:30.839
a tree, came back on the road, and kublami. They

303
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:34.759
all died in a big fiery explosion and their ghosts

304
00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:38.680
found their way to grim Manor. It took Bethy figuring

305
00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:41.880
and telling them they was ghosts, and she proved it

306
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:45.759
by passing our hand right through each of them, flashing

307
00:20:45.880 --> 00:20:48.599
back to now, how the hell did they get out

308
00:20:48.599 --> 00:20:52.519
of grim Manor and come to the mall. Yeah, Harpie

309
00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:56.359
ain't getting in neither, Bethy, I think to her. Even

310
00:20:56.440 --> 00:20:58.640
though one of us is in control of our body,

311
00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:02.599
the other one also so sees what's happening. Also, the

312
00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:06.440
one riding along can rest, which is how Bethy and

313
00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:10.359
me found out we can keep moving without sleeping. Eventually

314
00:21:10.839 --> 00:21:14.119
we both got to have our rest. That's how we agreed.

315
00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:19.319
Bethy can have daytime and Harpy can have the night life. Careful, Bethy,

316
00:21:19.920 --> 00:21:21.559
they're coming this way.

317
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:26.359
You're not safe yet. Weekly Spooky will be right back.

318
00:21:31.319 --> 00:21:35.079
As Bethy's about to let Harpy come back out, Harmony

319
00:21:35.160 --> 00:21:38.880
Miring grabs a hold of his shoulder. You listen to me,

320
00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:41.799
young lady. I don't care if you stuff yourself full

321
00:21:41.799 --> 00:21:44.160
of pizza in my food court at least three times

322
00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:46.559
a week. You're coming with me so I can call

323
00:21:46.599 --> 00:21:51.559
the police. She's back on her radio. Harpy, answer me,

324
00:21:51.680 --> 00:21:55.960
damn it. It's Christmas now and them three ghosties are

325
00:21:56.000 --> 00:22:00.799
making their way here. Bethy tries telling Harmony, you need

326
00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:04.799
to go, lady, right now. But you know how stubborn

327
00:22:04.839 --> 00:22:10.119
the rich bitches this is my mall. Well, well, well

328
00:22:10.799 --> 00:22:14.240
look what we got here. Ed Smith sneers when he

329
00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:19.400
reaches us. Look at you, Bethany Martinson. You think you're

330
00:22:19.400 --> 00:22:22.440
too smart to follow the rules of this mall. Eh.

331
00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:25.880
John Riddle points at us. He really thought you was

332
00:22:25.920 --> 00:22:32.440
gonna get away and with all our money. Brian Davenport's sneering. Now, yeah,

333
00:22:32.680 --> 00:22:35.839
we ain't going with that. That's why we snuck away

334
00:22:35.839 --> 00:22:39.920
from grim Manor. See, we ain't ready to go into

335
00:22:39.960 --> 00:22:44.640
eternal peace just yet. In other words, we got a

336
00:22:44.680 --> 00:22:47.960
score to settle with you first, little miss know it all.

337
00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:52.160
Ed Smith says, And since we can't take our money

338
00:22:52.200 --> 00:22:55.279
we came for that night back with us. We gotta

339
00:22:55.359 --> 00:22:57.880
get you to come back to grim Manor right now

340
00:22:58.440 --> 00:23:02.039
so you can die and hang out with us for

341
00:23:02.119 --> 00:23:07.519
the long term. Brian Davenport remarks, I'll never return to

342
00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:12.160
that house ever again. Bethy yells as Harmony Miron gets

343
00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:15.480
off of her cart to give them ghosties hell. They

344
00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:18.839
immediately grab her right to him. What the hell do

345
00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:22.640
you think you're doing? Harmony yells? Do you have any idea?

346
00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:26.079
Who the fuck I am? I am? Harmony Miron and

347
00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:30.759
you will ah shut your trap, lady, John Riddle snaps.

348
00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:34.319
Ed Smith points right at us. Now. If you ever

349
00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:37.000
want to see this woman here ever again, you'll have

350
00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:39.880
to come out to grim Manor and get her. And

351
00:23:39.920 --> 00:23:44.039
before Bethy can change places with Harpy, those bastards fly

352
00:23:44.160 --> 00:23:46.720
in the air lift in Harmony off the floor with them.

353
00:23:47.359 --> 00:23:49.720
They fly her to a nearby exit and pass right

354
00:23:49.759 --> 00:23:53.519
through it. Even Harmony passes through it, just like the Ghosties.

355
00:23:54.440 --> 00:24:00.119
Oh shit, Bethy cries, it'll be okay. I think to her,

356
00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:03.319
just let Harpy out and she'll go get the rich bitch.

357
00:24:04.240 --> 00:24:08.319
Bethy don't argue and comes back inside when Harpy's coming out.

358
00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:12.160
Once Harpy's free, I take off Bethy's glasses and slip

359
00:24:12.200 --> 00:24:17.119
them into my pocket. Okay, you fucking ghosties, I say,

360
00:24:17.559 --> 00:24:21.359
you made a big mistake coming here. And now Harpy's

361
00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:30.440
coming and Harpy's mad perspective. Bethany, I still can't believe

362
00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:33.319
the change that takes place between us when we switch

363
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:37.480
our souls. It's amazing that Harpy's more than human when

364
00:24:37.480 --> 00:24:41.680
she gains control of our body. I'm skinny, but Harpy

365
00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:45.200
has meat. On the bones. Now, Harpy's marching to the

366
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:50.240
mall exit. Suddenly she stops before reaching the doors. What

367
00:24:50.279 --> 00:24:53.519
are you doing, Harpy, I think to her, got a

368
00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:57.880
dressed for battle? Sissy, Harpy thinks back, I know I

369
00:24:57.920 --> 00:25:01.640
won't win this one. Harpy leaves that the clothes make

370
00:25:01.720 --> 00:25:05.960
the girl. She lifts the gate to Falconer's fashions, breaking

371
00:25:06.000 --> 00:25:09.799
the lock, and goes in. She quickly grabs what she

372
00:25:09.880 --> 00:25:13.720
wants off the racks and changes clothes. When she's finished,

373
00:25:13.759 --> 00:25:17.680
she remembers my glasses and storms out. She unlocks one

374
00:25:17.720 --> 00:25:21.160
of the exit doors to get outside, then she relocks it.

375
00:25:21.680 --> 00:25:25.000
We need a car, Sissy. Harpy can do lots of things,

376
00:25:25.039 --> 00:25:28.920
but she can't fly. Harpy, please don't get us arrested,

377
00:25:29.359 --> 00:25:34.039
I implore her. Who Harpy nah? Why don't I like

378
00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:37.880
that tone in her voice. Harpy walks out onto the

379
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:43.319
parking lot to look around. Ooh yeah, look, Sissy. Listen, Harpy,

380
00:25:43.960 --> 00:25:46.920
you've only driven a car one time, I tell her,

381
00:25:47.400 --> 00:25:51.480
and that one is huge. Come on, Sissy, you gotta

382
00:25:51.480 --> 00:25:56.319
stop being such a boor. And Bethy, she teases, Harpy'll

383
00:25:56.359 --> 00:26:01.440
take care of everything. That's what I'm afraid of. Harpy

384
00:26:01.519 --> 00:26:04.400
reaches the hummer and breaks into it. I think it's

385
00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:07.319
safe to say Harpy's learned a lot during my lonely

386
00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:11.680
movie nights in our dorm, especially when we watched the Terminator.

387
00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:15.519
Harpy rips the steering column open and starts the car

388
00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:20.480
the same way Arnold Schwarzenegger did. Yeah, cries that crazy

389
00:26:20.519 --> 00:26:24.880
Brooklyn girl who sounds just like Harley Quinn. Hi ho, Harpy.

390
00:26:26.079 --> 00:26:28.759
When my sister floors the gas she's heading in the

391
00:26:28.799 --> 00:26:32.599
direction of the backwoods of Strickfield. I groan. When Harpy's

392
00:26:32.640 --> 00:26:36.000
on the road and running multiple red lights. I'm still

393
00:26:36.039 --> 00:26:39.200
thinking Harpy's making up for all the years she remained

394
00:26:39.200 --> 00:26:42.759
the recessive soul in our body. I know we're really

395
00:26:42.839 --> 00:26:46.079
in trouble. When Harpy turns on the radio to George

396
00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:49.640
Thoroughgood's bad to the bone. Oh my god, what are

397
00:26:49.640 --> 00:26:53.759
the chances? Harpy changes the station and gets rocking around

398
00:26:53.799 --> 00:26:58.519
the Christmas tree by Brenda Lee. Yeah we're on our way, Sissy,

399
00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:02.599
Harper cries out out happily. Just get us to murder

400
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:07.079
Mansion alive, will you? I mutter, always the boor and Bethy,

401
00:27:07.599 --> 00:27:12.359
she mutters back. Harpy knows what she's doing. Harpy keeps

402
00:27:12.400 --> 00:27:18.319
us speeding along with her lead foot wheee. Before long

403
00:27:18.359 --> 00:27:21.200
we're on the main road leading out to the backwoods.

404
00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:27.599
Then Harpy utters some choked happy sounds. Such pretty lights, Bethy,

405
00:27:28.160 --> 00:27:33.119
she whispers, Harpy loves Christmas decorations. They go so good

406
00:27:33.160 --> 00:27:37.799
with the snow. She's not wrong. Harpy's eyes definitely brightened

407
00:27:37.880 --> 00:27:41.240
up over the Halloween lights and decorations back in October

408
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:45.759
as well. You do remember the way to Murder Mansion, right,

409
00:27:46.359 --> 00:27:52.240
I ask? Harpy's gotcha, she promises. Once Harpy reaches the

410
00:27:52.279 --> 00:27:54.680
curve where the detective's car was in the middle of

411
00:27:54.720 --> 00:27:57.960
the road, she drives right off it and into the

412
00:27:58.000 --> 00:28:02.079
snow covered backwoods of Strict I don't swear much, but

413
00:28:02.599 --> 00:28:04.720
I think we're going to be in some serious shit

414
00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:09.119
before too long. In fact, Harpy breaks to a halt

415
00:28:09.640 --> 00:28:13.880
right in front of Murder Mansion.

416
00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:20.559
Did you hear that? Better check the locks on your doors. Weakly, Spooky,

417
00:28:20.720 --> 00:28:21.759
We'll be right back.

418
00:28:24.880 --> 00:28:28.599
Harpy cuts the motor and gets out. She marches right

419
00:28:28.680 --> 00:28:31.359
up to the front double doors and moves to kick

420
00:28:31.400 --> 00:28:36.640
them in, only they don't budge. What the fuck, Harpy growls,

421
00:28:37.119 --> 00:28:40.000
I know I'm strong enough to rip these doors right off, Sissy.

422
00:28:40.880 --> 00:28:44.240
Harpy keeps throwing her strength into the doors, but they

423
00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:48.079
won't give up the ghost no pun intended. She even

424
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:51.960
tries shattering the windows, but they won't even vibrate when

425
00:28:51.960 --> 00:28:56.359
her fists make contact. When Harpy sees she can't get through,

426
00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:01.440
she looks up to the sky and howls with rage. Hearty, mad,

427
00:29:02.759 --> 00:29:04.440
you're going to have to let me out for a

428
00:29:04.440 --> 00:29:08.279
little bit. I tell her, those detectives are expecting me,

429
00:29:09.039 --> 00:29:14.359
not you trust me on this. Harpy thinks about it. Okay, Bethy,

430
00:29:14.880 --> 00:29:19.880
let's hope you're right. Harpy shifts back into boring Bethany, great,

431
00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:24.000
I'm wearing these slutty clothes and I still couldn't get

432
00:29:24.039 --> 00:29:26.640
a man to want me. I gulp and terror and

433
00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:30.160
make myself go to the front doors. I'm breathing fast

434
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:33.799
as I turn the knob. Sure enough, it opens right

435
00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:38.240
up just for me. I feel my knees shaking. Suddenly,

436
00:29:38.319 --> 00:29:41.519
this huge gust of winter wind blows me right into

437
00:29:41.559 --> 00:29:46.680
the haunted house. Shortly after the door I opened slams shut,

438
00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:51.240
just like that Fourth of July night two years ago.

439
00:29:51.279 --> 00:29:54.680
I quickly turn around and try opening the doors. When

440
00:29:54.680 --> 00:29:56.880
they won't budge, I suck it up and make my

441
00:29:56.960 --> 00:29:59.119
way to the living room where I first saw those

442
00:29:59.200 --> 00:30:03.400
three douche Sure enough, they're in the living room waiting

443
00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:07.200
for me, and they've got harmony. Mirrn secured to a recliner.

444
00:30:08.039 --> 00:30:11.839
Ed smith sneers aw. Gee, Bethany, you didn't have to

445
00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:15.279
get all dressed up just for us, John Riddle gives

446
00:30:15.319 --> 00:30:21.119
me a thumbs up. Sex. See, okay, I'm here, I yell.

447
00:30:21.759 --> 00:30:23.759
I can't believe you three got all but hurt over

448
00:30:23.799 --> 00:30:26.000
what happened when we were all out here over two

449
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:29.960
years ago. I realize I'm not feeling so scared when

450
00:30:29.960 --> 00:30:34.599
I'm pissed. Riddle points to me that was our money

451
00:30:34.920 --> 00:30:37.160
and you were the one who walked out of here

452
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:41.359
with it. I tightened my fists. Don't blame me because

453
00:30:41.400 --> 00:30:44.559
your dumb ass has died that night. I wasn't the

454
00:30:44.559 --> 00:30:49.720
one driving recklessly in a bad rainstorm. Brian Davenport points

455
00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:52.519
at me now, but you left us here and took

456
00:30:52.559 --> 00:30:56.720
off with the money. I'm squeezing my fists. Now, why

457
00:30:56.759 --> 00:30:59.880
is it always that you men can never take responsible

458
00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:05.279
for anything you do? Again, I wasn't the one driving

459
00:31:05.400 --> 00:31:09.480
your car. I had no idea you three would even

460
00:31:09.559 --> 00:31:12.839
be out here at Murder Mansion. I just wanted to

461
00:31:12.880 --> 00:31:16.599
find a phone and call for a tow. I point

462
00:31:16.640 --> 00:31:20.920
to them. Now. Actually, actually it was you who caused

463
00:31:21.000 --> 00:31:23.680
my car to be wrecked. You're the reason I ended

464
00:31:23.759 --> 00:31:26.920
up coming here in the first place. I wasn't here

465
00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:30.519
for Beauregard Grimm's fortune. I only ended up solving the

466
00:31:30.720 --> 00:31:33.759
escape rooms and taking the money because I was forced

467
00:31:33.960 --> 00:31:39.119
into the hunt. Ed Smith waves me off. Don't matter now,

468
00:31:39.599 --> 00:31:43.960
What does matter is you're here? He points at Harmony.

469
00:31:44.680 --> 00:31:47.519
The two of you are gonna remain here and take

470
00:31:47.559 --> 00:31:51.640
our places. See, we're leaving and going back into the

471
00:31:51.680 --> 00:31:57.119
real world. We're tired of staying here. Davenport sneers. Now,

472
00:31:57.759 --> 00:32:00.559
so we're gonna kill you both and take your bodies

473
00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:03.440
to get back into the real world. Guess we're gonna

474
00:32:03.440 --> 00:32:07.119
be chicks now. I groan and shake my head slowly.

475
00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:11.599
There are three of you here, and you're going to

476
00:32:11.720 --> 00:32:16.079
kill two of us. What is one of you staying behind? Clearly,

477
00:32:16.119 --> 00:32:20.359
you idiots did not think this through. When the three

478
00:32:20.359 --> 00:32:22.680
of them look at each other, I just shake my

479
00:32:22.759 --> 00:32:28.559
head slowly. Like I told you two years ago, it's

480
00:32:28.599 --> 00:32:32.319
all about the details. You never paid attention to them before,

481
00:32:32.880 --> 00:32:36.599
and you still don't pay attention to them now. We

482
00:32:36.720 --> 00:32:41.359
paid enough attention. Smith replies, you came to save this

483
00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:45.039
woman and you don't even know her. He looks at Harmony.

484
00:32:45.720 --> 00:32:48.559
You should have just left her for dead. She's one

485
00:32:48.559 --> 00:32:52.440
of those ultra rich mirings, right. I highly doubt she'd

486
00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:56.519
have come to save you. But we're not talking about her, right.

487
00:32:56.920 --> 00:33:01.839
I snap, your beef is with me. Suddenly, Smith flies

488
00:33:01.880 --> 00:33:04.720
at me. When he passes right through me, I quickly

489
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:07.519
dropped to my butt. Now I feel like I haven't

490
00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:11.240
slept for four days. Let me out, Bethany. I hear

491
00:33:11.319 --> 00:33:15.119
Harpy calling from within. I try and focus to let

492
00:33:15.119 --> 00:33:18.960
my sister back out. Then Davenport passes right through me.

493
00:33:19.519 --> 00:33:22.559
I groan and fall on my side. I feel like

494
00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:26.480
I've got no energy at all. I can't even focus

495
00:33:26.599 --> 00:33:31.359
enough to release Harpy. Come on, Bethany, let Harpy out,

496
00:33:31.839 --> 00:33:38.440
she yells. I'm trying. I think back, so I'm so exhausted.

497
00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:44.960
I can't move, I can't think, Bethy. We ain't dying

498
00:33:45.079 --> 00:33:49.359
here in this fucking shit hole. And on Christmas, Harpy yells,

499
00:33:49.759 --> 00:33:53.559
now get your ass up and let Harpy out finish

500
00:33:53.559 --> 00:33:58.119
her off. Smith tells Riddle one more pass and she's dead.

501
00:33:58.599 --> 00:34:01.279
Then we can finish the Mirror and leave for good.

502
00:34:02.279 --> 00:34:06.000
We can also hear Harmony Mirrn struggling and throwing every

503
00:34:06.039 --> 00:34:10.079
curseword at those bastards in one breath. You know, Bethy,

504
00:34:10.760 --> 00:34:15.039
what if them spiders come back? Harpy goads me, what

505
00:34:15.119 --> 00:34:17.719
if you end up being hanged like August and Dorothy

506
00:34:17.800 --> 00:34:20.920
Grimm was back in the day. Or do you want

507
00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:24.440
us roam in the halls here as ghosties, because if

508
00:34:24.480 --> 00:34:29.039
you don't move, Sissy, that's what's gonna happen. Of course,

509
00:34:29.079 --> 00:34:31.800
you can lay right here and wait for the spiders

510
00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:36.440
to come and get you. Then we hear Riddle. Since

511
00:34:36.440 --> 00:34:40.360
it's obvious we ain't getting our money, Bethany, I think

512
00:34:40.360 --> 00:34:44.920
it's a pretty good consolation prize that we get you.

513
00:34:44.920 --> 00:34:48.440
You should have stayed out of our business. Kid. We

514
00:34:48.519 --> 00:34:51.480
can see Riddle coming at us, and I know this

515
00:34:51.639 --> 00:34:54.239
is the end. If he passes right through me.

516
00:34:56.360 --> 00:35:00.440
More scares to come weekly Spooky will be right.

517
00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:09.599
Back perspective Harpy, except Riddle ain't expecting the girl to

518
00:35:09.679 --> 00:35:14.039
suddenly spring up. Then that Riddle idiot slams into Harpy

519
00:35:14.079 --> 00:35:19.599
and bounces away. Harpy steps up to him boo. Then

520
00:35:19.719 --> 00:35:22.960
the Ghosty cries out in frighten tumbles through one of

521
00:35:23.000 --> 00:35:27.519
the big couches, making Harpy laugh. I pointed him you

522
00:35:27.639 --> 00:35:33.440
was a ghostie and Harpy just scared you. Ha ha. Bethany,

523
00:35:34.199 --> 00:35:40.559
Bethany your your Harpy Harmony shrieks in disbelief. You miss me,

524
00:35:40.840 --> 00:35:45.000
rich bitch. I reply, yeah, Harpy came out here to

525
00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:49.920
save you ass. Pass through her already, Riddle. Smith yells

526
00:35:49.960 --> 00:35:54.119
his way, Riddle gets his shit together. Riddle gets his

527
00:35:54.159 --> 00:35:58.000
shit together. I don't get it. How'd you get purple hair,

528
00:35:58.119 --> 00:36:01.199
red eyes and a hot body, Bethanie? And why are

529
00:36:01.239 --> 00:36:04.360
you talking like that? You finally lose your marbles now,

530
00:36:05.119 --> 00:36:09.559
Harpy laughs again. Yeah, your shitheads ain't never met Harpy,

531
00:36:09.639 --> 00:36:13.719
did you. Now? All them ghosties come flying right at Harpy.

532
00:36:14.039 --> 00:36:17.360
They try passing through me and bounce off. Don't ask

533
00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:22.079
how Harpy repels ghosties. I probably adapted to him. Of course,

534
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:25.840
Harpy can do lots of things Bethy can't. I leap

535
00:36:25.960 --> 00:36:29.159
over to Harmony and break a ropes. We're getting out

536
00:36:29.199 --> 00:36:32.360
of here, rich bitch. Harmony titans her jaw and looks

537
00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:37.480
right at Harpy. Excuse you, I laugh a little. Okay, okay,

538
00:36:38.119 --> 00:36:43.519
boss bitch. Harmony smirks. That's more like it, squawker. I

539
00:36:43.639 --> 00:36:47.119
point at her. You're pushing your luck, calling Harpy a squawker.

540
00:36:47.840 --> 00:36:51.239
Maybe Harpy, you'll leave you here after all. Then I

541
00:36:51.280 --> 00:36:56.639
think to Bethany, how do we kill ghosties? Sissy, Let's

542
00:36:56.800 --> 00:37:01.400
just get out of here. Bethy returns for Harpy. I

543
00:37:01.440 --> 00:37:05.239
think back. I turned to Harmony. Come on, boss bitch,

544
00:37:05.280 --> 00:37:08.119
we out of here. I hoist up Harmony and speed

545
00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:10.960
to the doors we came in through. This time, Bethy

546
00:37:10.960 --> 00:37:14.320
ain't suggesting coming out again. I put Harmony down and

547
00:37:14.360 --> 00:37:18.480
pump my fists. Harpy's throwing punch after punch, but the

548
00:37:18.519 --> 00:37:22.639
door refuses to budge again. Them ghosties are getting closer.

549
00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:26.519
Then Harpy takes another deep breath before focusing on the

550
00:37:26.559 --> 00:37:32.199
doors again. Harpy Mad Harpy hits them doors so hard

551
00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:34.760
they fly right past the hummer. Bethy and me came

552
00:37:34.800 --> 00:37:39.000
here in. Harmony and Harpy run outside. I tossed the

553
00:37:39.079 --> 00:37:43.159
keys to her. Get out of here. Harmony tosses him back.

554
00:37:43.760 --> 00:37:46.360
I'm not getting my ass pulled over for driving a

555
00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:50.960
stolen vehicle. How fucking stupid do you think I am.

556
00:37:51.039 --> 00:37:55.880
She's got a good point, Harpy Bethy thinks at me, Yeah, yeah,

557
00:37:56.079 --> 00:37:59.639
I think back. But we wouldn't have had a chance

558
00:37:59.679 --> 00:38:02.760
to leave even the hummer. The Ghosties go into it

559
00:38:03.400 --> 00:38:09.920
and make it blow up. Hey, Harpy love driving that car,

560
00:38:10.519 --> 00:38:15.480
Harpy yells at the Ghosties car. That's it. Harpy Bethy

561
00:38:15.599 --> 00:38:18.639
cries out, We've got to go look for that car,

562
00:38:19.079 --> 00:38:22.159
the one those men came here in. I reported it

563
00:38:22.199 --> 00:38:24.639
once I got my new cell phone, but the police

564
00:38:24.679 --> 00:38:28.360
said they never found it. So how do we find it? Sissy?

565
00:38:29.039 --> 00:38:32.079
I think we'll have to just go looking for it.

566
00:38:32.519 --> 00:38:36.360
She thinks back, there's no easy way to do it.

567
00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:40.239
Then Harpy's eyes changed for me to see better in

568
00:38:40.280 --> 00:38:46.440
the dark. Ooh, night vision. So what now? Harmony asks,

569
00:38:46.800 --> 00:38:51.159
you're coming with me? Boss, bitch? I tell her Harpy

570
00:38:51.239 --> 00:38:54.960
removes her jacket and gives it to Harmony. After she

571
00:38:55.039 --> 00:38:57.800
puts it on, Harpy lifts her onto her shoulder again.

572
00:38:58.679 --> 00:39:02.639
Put me down, you sc walker, she yells, you are

573
00:39:02.719 --> 00:39:07.400
so fired whatever I muttered back. Can't leave you here

574
00:39:07.400 --> 00:39:11.639
for them ghosties. Right, Harpy's finding she can run real fast.

575
00:39:12.239 --> 00:39:16.199
Harpy's feeling her leg muscles swelling up and burning. Yeah,

576
00:39:16.400 --> 00:39:20.199
Bethy's superpower is in her brains. Harpy's being able to

577
00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:23.880
adapt to shit. Harpy can cover a lot of ground

578
00:39:24.000 --> 00:39:27.840
fast now, even wearing heels. Bethy tells me where she

579
00:39:27.960 --> 00:39:32.079
hit the car, So Harpy heads that away. Stop. We

580
00:39:32.199 --> 00:39:35.519
hear one of them ghosties calling out, what do you

581
00:39:35.559 --> 00:39:39.440
think you're doing? Another one calls out looking for a

582
00:39:39.519 --> 00:39:43.320
place to pee. I call back, Your fuckers want to watch.

583
00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:47.800
Harpy keeps running and keeping ahead of the ghosties. When

584
00:39:47.840 --> 00:39:51.400
Harpy starts running out of breath, she's feeling something weird

585
00:39:51.440 --> 00:39:56.360
in both lungs. Harpy adapting again. I know what happened,

586
00:39:56.360 --> 00:39:59.719
But Harpy ain't breathing now and can run even faster.

587
00:40:00.519 --> 00:40:04.320
The thing about these adaptations is when I become Bethy again,

588
00:40:04.360 --> 00:40:07.079
I lose all of them till they gotta happen again.

589
00:40:08.079 --> 00:40:11.360
When Harpy makes it to the main highway, Bethy tells

590
00:40:11.400 --> 00:40:15.840
me where to go. After a little more running over here, Harpy,

591
00:40:16.280 --> 00:40:21.000
Bethy cries, I see it, Sissy, I think back. Harpy

592
00:40:21.079 --> 00:40:23.639
steps on it and races to the snow covered car.

593
00:40:24.320 --> 00:40:28.119
When I reach it, I put Harmony back down. It's

594
00:40:28.119 --> 00:40:33.079
a burnout car with three charred skeletons sitting inside. What now, Cissy,

595
00:40:33.400 --> 00:40:37.199
I think, use that strength of yours and start digging.

596
00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:41.599
Bethany thinks back, Ah, I get you now, Bethy. I

597
00:40:41.719 --> 00:40:45.320
tell her Harpy's grabbing and tearing chunks out of the ground.

598
00:40:45.760 --> 00:40:49.639
Bethy's ideas to make three graves. I'm thinking she's thinking,

599
00:40:49.679 --> 00:40:53.400
we gotta give those idiots decent burials. I remember how

600
00:40:53.440 --> 00:40:56.760
Papa used to tell us stories about burying the dead

601
00:40:56.800 --> 00:41:00.320
and why when we was kids back in Brooklyn. Harpy

602
00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:04.039
keeps digging and digging. My hands become bigger and turn

603
00:41:04.079 --> 00:41:07.599
into long claws. Now I own hard. When I'm feeling

604
00:41:07.599 --> 00:41:11.679
my muscles growing more and more, Harpy can easily rip

605
00:41:11.760 --> 00:41:15.719
more and more ground out. Now those fucking ghosts are

606
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:20.760
getting closer, Squawker, Harmony yells my way, keep it up, Harmony,

607
00:41:21.079 --> 00:41:24.559
Harpy'll be digging a fourth grave just for you. I growl.

608
00:41:25.280 --> 00:41:28.360
Now shut up and make yourself useful by getting them

609
00:41:28.400 --> 00:41:34.079
skeletons out of the car. Oh Christ, Harmony groans. E

610
00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:38.800
Harpy's a real mess. By the time she's finished digging

611
00:41:38.880 --> 00:41:42.360
the graves. Harpy's new clothes she got at the mall

612
00:41:42.599 --> 00:41:46.840
before leaving got all fucked up. I even lost my boots,

613
00:41:47.639 --> 00:41:52.559
least my nails. Okay, claws are still perfect. Leave those

614
00:41:52.599 --> 00:41:56.760
skeletons alone. Ed Smith roars as the ghosties are almost

615
00:41:56.800 --> 00:42:00.519
on us. I run and help Harmony. Harp He rips

616
00:42:00.559 --> 00:42:03.840
the door off and grabs two skeletons. Harmony grabs the

617
00:42:03.920 --> 00:42:08.639
last one. Come on, boss, bitch, let's move, I tell her. Then,

618
00:42:08.719 --> 00:42:11.599
I think to Bethy, there ain't no burial rights we

619
00:42:11.639 --> 00:42:15.039
gotta perform, is there? I only know what Dad talked

620
00:42:15.039 --> 00:42:19.559
about years ago. Bethy thinks back, we can only hope

621
00:42:19.599 --> 00:42:23.639
burying them works. Harmony and Me get the skeletons into

622
00:42:23.679 --> 00:42:27.719
the graves. Now Harpy's gotta cover up the holes. Stop

623
00:42:27.800 --> 00:42:31.760
right there, or we'll kill the mirror. Woman, Riddle threatens Harpy.

624
00:42:32.599 --> 00:42:36.320
Harmony points to me. You keep right on working, you squawker.

625
00:42:36.639 --> 00:42:39.119
I'm rehiring you, so you do what your boss bitch

626
00:42:39.199 --> 00:42:43.079
tells you. Move it. Harpy works faster and faster till

627
00:42:43.079 --> 00:42:46.920
the holes are filled in. Harpy's feeling really strong now

628
00:42:47.400 --> 00:42:50.760
I've grown. When I'm still getting stronger and bigger. My

629
00:42:50.920 --> 00:42:53.840
mini skirt rips until it falls off, and my top

630
00:42:53.920 --> 00:42:56.760
rips at the sides, but don't completely fall off to

631
00:42:56.840 --> 00:43:00.800
reveal the ladies. Harmony quickly comes and stands to where

632
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:04.760
I'm blocking the ghosties. Harpy keeps working and working till

633
00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:08.760
all the graves are filled in completely. It's then when

634
00:43:08.760 --> 00:43:12.079
the ghosties roar and disappear in a bright flash of light.

635
00:43:13.039 --> 00:43:18.519
When the ghosties are gone, Harpy stands back up. Holy shit,

636
00:43:19.239 --> 00:43:25.199
Harmony shrieks, Squawker, you're you're Harpy's a good three heads

637
00:43:25.280 --> 00:43:30.119
taller than Harmony now and she's ripped all over. Harpy

638
00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:33.960
turned into a big Amazon Harpy. Then I pick up

639
00:43:33.960 --> 00:43:36.760
Harmony by her shoulders and look her in the face.

640
00:43:37.559 --> 00:43:41.440
Even like this, Harmony still ain't scared of Harpy. You

641
00:43:41.679 --> 00:43:44.440
do know I still expect you to guard the mall tonite,

642
00:43:44.679 --> 00:43:49.280
you squawker, even though it is Christmas. Then she looks

643
00:43:49.320 --> 00:43:52.639
harps over again. Guess I'll have to get you a

644
00:43:52.920 --> 00:43:53.920
bigger uniform.

645
00:43:55.679 --> 00:43:59.880
I like it. Spooky weekly, spooky. We'll be right back.

646
00:44:03.519 --> 00:44:09.760
Perspective. Bethany Harpy, still in her Amazon like state, ran

647
00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:12.599
all the way back to Strickfield Town Center Mall with

648
00:44:12.639 --> 00:44:17.559
Harmony Miron cradled in her arms. Even barefoot, Harpy could

649
00:44:17.599 --> 00:44:19.719
still run like she had the best set of running

650
00:44:19.719 --> 00:44:23.400
shoes money could buy, even though our panties in her

651
00:44:23.480 --> 00:44:27.039
top were stretched to their limits. The freezing cold didn't

652
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:30.239
bother Harpy in the slightest, and she had a lot

653
00:44:30.280 --> 00:44:34.920
of skin exposed. The mall is still closed. After Harpy

654
00:44:34.960 --> 00:44:38.679
put Harmony down, she pulls out her keyring and uses

655
00:44:38.719 --> 00:44:40.960
her master key to open the entrance to let us

656
00:44:41.000 --> 00:44:46.119
back inside. Harpy squats down to enter after Harmony locks

657
00:44:46.119 --> 00:44:48.880
the door back up. She turns to look at Harpy

658
00:44:49.280 --> 00:44:52.679
and is still amazed at how tall and muscular she is.

659
00:44:53.800 --> 00:44:56.480
Now Harpy and Harmony are just looking at each other,

660
00:44:57.559 --> 00:45:00.480
even though it's nice and warm in the mall. Harmony's

661
00:45:00.519 --> 00:45:05.840
shivering now, no more like trembling. Then she falls to

662
00:45:05.880 --> 00:45:09.760
her knees and starts crying. Harpy lowers herself to one

663
00:45:09.800 --> 00:45:14.320
knee and puts a huge hand on her shoulder. Ah, hey,

664
00:45:14.400 --> 00:45:18.079
what's the matter. Why the tears? We got out of

665
00:45:18.079 --> 00:45:21.559
them woods and beat them ghosties. No problem, right? Come on?

666
00:45:21.719 --> 00:45:27.760
Why so sad on Christmas? I hate my life, she

667
00:45:27.960 --> 00:45:32.159
chokes out. I hate this fucking mall, I really hate it.

668
00:45:33.360 --> 00:45:36.440
She makes herself look up at Harpy. I hate my

669
00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:39.719
fucking parents. Nobody has any idea of the hell they

670
00:45:39.719 --> 00:45:42.719
put me through. They pounded the mirror and weighs into

671
00:45:42.719 --> 00:45:46.239
me over and over again. I wasn't allowed to date,

672
00:45:46.320 --> 00:45:50.360
I wasn't allowed to leave the house. I was always homeschooled.

673
00:45:50.800 --> 00:45:54.039
Everything in my life was planned out for me, ruining

674
00:45:54.079 --> 00:45:59.079
my childhood. I was being groomed to take over dad's businesses.

675
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:03.559
Harmony gets up. She makes a fist and screams as

676
00:46:03.559 --> 00:46:07.440
she's about to punch a nearby wall. Harpy quickly stops

677
00:46:07.440 --> 00:46:11.280
her before she punches it and injures herself. She turns

678
00:46:11.320 --> 00:46:16.000
her around. Come on, you can talk to Harpy, She

679
00:46:16.199 --> 00:46:20.079
urges Harmony. I ain't got nothing but time. I'm your

680
00:46:20.159 --> 00:46:23.480
nighttime security guard. Remember or did you really mean it

681
00:46:23.519 --> 00:46:29.159
when you said Harpy was fired? Please don't leave, Harmony begs,

682
00:46:30.000 --> 00:46:33.039
I have to talk to somebody. I can't. I can't

683
00:46:33.039 --> 00:46:38.320
be alone on Christmas again. Please we sit down with

684
00:46:38.400 --> 00:46:41.480
Harmony and let her talk. The two of us are

685
00:46:41.519 --> 00:46:45.440
both sad at hearing how Harmony inherited them all after

686
00:46:45.480 --> 00:46:48.519
her parents were killed by the Angel of Death and

687
00:46:48.679 --> 00:46:51.280
was forced to learn everything about the business on her

688
00:46:51.280 --> 00:46:54.880
own and keep it from going under. She had to

689
00:46:54.960 --> 00:46:58.239
raise money to pay off all the investors who demanded returns.

690
00:46:58.960 --> 00:47:01.199
She ended up getting pressed because she met a man

691
00:47:01.239 --> 00:47:04.719
in a bar when she snuck out one night. When

692
00:47:04.760 --> 00:47:07.840
her parents learned she was pregnant, they wanted to throw

693
00:47:07.840 --> 00:47:11.800
her out. They didn't, though they made her take care

694
00:47:11.840 --> 00:47:16.840
of the baby herself. Harmony had sleepless nights once Melanie

695
00:47:16.880 --> 00:47:21.320
was born. To make matters worse, Harmony ended up losing

696
00:47:21.360 --> 00:47:25.079
Melanie when her grandparents suit her for custody and won.

697
00:47:26.280 --> 00:47:29.239
Since Harmony had to keep this mall going and keep

698
00:47:29.239 --> 00:47:32.239
it from collapsing and having to pay off the investors,

699
00:47:32.280 --> 00:47:36.480
she couldn't make enough quality time for her child. Even

700
00:47:36.519 --> 00:47:39.800
though she brought her daughter to the mall, her grandparents

701
00:47:39.880 --> 00:47:42.800
still didn't think it was an ideal environment for a baby.

702
00:47:43.920 --> 00:47:46.599
It's no secret that the Mirons will turn on anybody,

703
00:47:47.039 --> 00:47:50.639
even their own. Harmony finally had to sell the family

704
00:47:50.719 --> 00:47:54.559
mansion to pay off the debts. She since got the

705
00:47:54.639 --> 00:47:58.320
mall in the black. But now Harmony reveals the mall

706
00:47:58.360 --> 00:48:03.920
itself her home. Guess that explains why she's always here.

707
00:48:05.159 --> 00:48:08.800
Harmony had been crying and trembling while venting to us.

708
00:48:09.679 --> 00:48:14.480
I think she was surprised Harpy was willing to listen. Hey,

709
00:48:15.199 --> 00:48:20.400
you're gonna be okay, Harpy tells her softly. Harmony takes

710
00:48:20.440 --> 00:48:24.559
Harpy's big hand in hers. I know we're on pins

711
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:30.400
and needles, but I'm glad you're here, and thanks for

712
00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:34.559
not kicking my ass. Believe me, I know I deserve it.

713
00:48:35.199 --> 00:48:39.559
Now you just stop right there, Harpy snaps. Remember something,

714
00:48:40.360 --> 00:48:44.119
it's Christmas. It's never too late to change who you are,

715
00:48:44.760 --> 00:48:47.760
and even Harpy knows it's this time of year when

716
00:48:47.800 --> 00:48:51.280
you can do it. I mean it worked for Scrooge, right,

717
00:48:52.239 --> 00:48:56.119
I myself watched a Christmas Carol enough times, we can

718
00:48:56.159 --> 00:48:59.639
see things through our eyes together, regardless of who the

719
00:48:59.679 --> 00:49:04.719
domin and soul is at the time. You really think

720
00:49:04.760 --> 00:49:09.840
I can change, Harmony stammers. You can do what you want.

721
00:49:10.320 --> 00:49:13.639
Harpy tells her, You're still young. It ain't too late.

722
00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:16.159
You don't want to be like Scrooge and be over

723
00:49:16.199 --> 00:49:18.360
the hill and find life passed you by, do you,

724
00:49:19.320 --> 00:49:22.920
especially if you was mean and nasty all your life. Yeah,

725
00:49:23.039 --> 00:49:28.119
you can change. You gotta wana, though, Harmony nods quickly.

726
00:49:29.199 --> 00:49:32.840
Thank you, squawker. I do want to keep working here.

727
00:49:34.000 --> 00:49:37.199
It sure sounds like Harmony's taken a real liking to Harpy.

728
00:49:38.199 --> 00:49:44.639
Harpy smirks, you got it, boss bitch. Then Harpy lifts

729
00:49:44.679 --> 00:49:47.840
Harmony into her arms as the two of them hug.

730
00:49:49.079 --> 00:49:51.920
I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship

731
00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:58.079
between these two frenemies. Also, Harmony promised to keep the

732
00:49:58.239 --> 00:50:04.199
secret Harpy and I share together. The question is will

733
00:50:04.239 --> 00:50:07.920
Harmony change for the better the way Ebenezer Scrooge did.

734
00:50:09.079 --> 00:50:12.239
I guess we'll see. I myself think the spirit of

735
00:50:12.320 --> 00:50:16.199
Christmas caught up to Harmony. If a rough edged Brooklyn

736
00:50:16.199 --> 00:50:19.760
spitfire like Harpie can learn the meaning of Christmas, then

737
00:50:20.519 --> 00:50:25.239
Harmony can learn too. The truth is we can all

738
00:50:25.320 --> 00:50:29.199
learn to embrace the spirit of Christmas. All we have

739
00:50:29.280 --> 00:50:33.559
to do is just open our hearts and let it in.

740
00:50:36.079 --> 00:50:44.800
