"I can't believe he did that, Jess!" "I mean, I've never met anyone so irresponsible!" "You know I risked my life" " Charlie!" "(doorbell ringing)" "Yeah?" " Bill, Bill Towner, electrician." " [Jesse] Uh, Jesse McLaughlin." " Nice to meet you, Jesse." "A young lady called, said you needed some work done." " She did, huh?" "Oh, wait" " Where's the fuse box, down there in the basement?" " Uh, listen, Bill, I'm sorry to trouble you, but this really isn't the right time." " Hey, that's all right, Jess," "I'm not gonna get in your way." "You just show me what needs fixin'." "This is quite a room you got here." "Yeah, very, very nice." "That's a weird fireplace though." " Yeah, uh, Bill..." " So what do we got in here?" "Ah, there it is." "Freemon 240, these old houses are loaded with 'em." "So this the room you're havin' problem here with, Jess?" " Uh, yeah, all along this wall, but the rest of the house is fine." "(glass shattering)" "I wouldn't worry about that, Jesse." "It didn't look too valuable." "Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep." "Just as I'd expected." "Jess, you got a problem here, but hey, like with any problem, you know, you don't wanna let it get the best of you." "You know, I've been workin' on these houses, oh, about 20 years now and I've seen enough tragedy and disaster to make you wanna up chuck in your shorts." "You see, these old houses, they just got minds of their own, you know, and ya just gotta teach 'em who's boss." "You know, sorta give 'em a spankin'." "(glass shattering)" "Huh, must be foreign made." "Well, I'm gonna fix this old house up for you, Jess, just like it's brand spankin' new." "(buzzing and beeping)" "(whirring)" " What is that?"

"Oh, hey, don't monkey with those switches, Jess." "It'll blow us both to Milwaukee." "It's touch and go from here, pal." "Could go either way, Jess." "Oh, yeah, yeah, Jess, want to step into my office here for a second?" "Listen, buddy, I like to be alone with my work, so if you don't mind..." " Yeah." " You got somethin' to do?" " Sure." " Go do it, buddy, go do it." "Go do it." "(laughing)" "Nice kid." "(heroic music)" "(suspenseful music)" "Whoops." "(mischievous music)" "Weird." "(suspenseful music)" " You see anything?" " Forget it." "I'm not goin' up there." "Gramps can get his own damn skull." " Come on, Charlie, Gramps said they went in here, so don't wimp out on me now." " Hey, buddy." "(screams)" "Oh, scared ya, huh?" "Relax." " Oh, God, Bill, are you all right?" " Yeah, fine." "Fine, fine." " Who is this?" " Uh, Bill." " Bill Towner, electrician." " Charlie Coriell, entrepreneur." " Uh, listen, fellas, we got a little problem in the other room." "I think you'd better come have a look." " Look, Bill, I'm sorry, but this really isn't a good time." "Why don't you pack it up and come back tomorrow?" " I think we better go in the other room and have a look." "(sighs)" "Well, there it is." "Looks like you got some kind of alternate universe in there or somethin'." "(ominous music)" " Thanks." "Come on, Charlie." " [Charlie] Guess I'm next." "Jess, got any spiders in there?" "'Cause you know I" " You comin', Charlie?" " [Bill] Hey, I don't know you guys." "Look, that's an alternate dimension in there or somethin' and..." " [Jesse] Incredible." " Well, hold on a second, will ya?" "I've been through this kinda thing before." "Just don't touch anything till I get there."

" You know, you guys throw one heck of a party and I'd really like to thank you for inviting me along." "Jess, it's been a pleasure and miss, it was a pleasure to meet you." "Oh, and Jess, listen, if you need any more work done just give me a call there, huh?" "Take care, Charlie." " [Charlie] See ya." "(heroic music)" "Who was that man?" "(sniffs)" "(grumbling)" "(squawking)" " Where the hell's the food?" " I'll go check." "(screeching)" " And tell him we're starvin'."
