Part I: Pet Cemetery
Due to job transfer, Dr. Lewis Quiddie moved to Radlow, Maine with his wife Rachel, two children and a cat. However, the process of moving was not smooth. In addition to traveling, his daughter Ellie accidentally fell down, and her son Cage was stung by a bee, and even the key to his new home could not be found. Just when Lewis was on the verge of emotional collapse, Judson, a neighbor, extended a helping hand, and all the problems were solved.
Judson took good care of their arrival. In the evening, Lewis and Judson were drinking and chatting, and Judson told him that the path behind his house led to the pet cemetery in the forest.
On a sunny evening, Judson took the curious Lewis family to the pet cemetery. He said that nearby pets often die under wheels, and their owners will bury them in this pet cemetery.
Lewis suffered a tragic car accident on his first day at work. A young man named Victor Pascau died in front of Lewis because of his injuries. The intense work of the whole day made Lewis sleep soundly at night. Suddenly, a loud noise woke him up. He saw Pascau, who died during the day, standing at the door of the bedroom. At this point, Pascau's head was in a powder state, and there was dried blood on his face. He smiled and said to Lewis, "Doctor, come with me".
An inexplicable impulse forced Lewis to keep up with Pascal. On the road after Pascau came to the house, Lewis really felt the dew on his bare feet. The pine needle stung his heel and a dead branch poked his shoulder, which made him have to remind himself all the time: "This is a very real dream."
After a while, Pascau stopped, put up a finger and looked not far away. Lewis looked in the direction he pointed to and saw a pile of bones crawling and twisted, as well as a sneer skeleton, front teeth, jaw and a crawling stump.
Extreme fear made Lewis start to cry. He shouted hard, only to find that he could not make a sound. Pascau said to Lewis, "Doctor, no matter how much you need it, don't cross that pile of bones. You and your loved ones will die soon. "
Say that finish, Pascal beckoned, Louis wanted to avoid his hand. Then Cage's cheers woke Lewis up. He got up and uncovered the quilt. He was surprised to find that his feet were covered with mud and pine needles ~ ~ ~
After that night, Pascau never showed up, and Lewis was convinced that it was just a sleepwalking.
Part II: Mikmark Cemetery
Soon, the Lewis family celebrated their first Halloween in Ladlow. Rachel stayed at home and looked after Cage who was sick. Lewis took Ellie to Judson's home alone, and just as everyone was having fun, Norma, the hostess, suddenly fainted in the kitchen. Fortunately, Lewis saved Norma in time, which made Judson regard him as a rescuer.
Norma's dying scene had a great influence on Ellie. Lewis told his daughter the truth of death from the perspective of an adult. When Ellie heard that she would face the death of Jojo, her pet cat, sooner or later, the extent of her grief made Lewis feel uneasy.
In a blink of an eye, Thanksgiving Day arrived. Rachel went back to her hometown with her two children, while Lewis stayed at home. At noon, when he came back from Judson's house, he fell asleep on the sofa. Suddenly, a ringing telephone woke him up, and Judson told him that Jojo had been killed by a car.
Lewis felt sad. He didn't expect Ellie to face Chucky's death so soon. Judson came home with a shovel and a flashlight and handed it to Lewis. He turned and walked to the pet cemetery in the forest.
Soon they arrived at their destination, and Judson shone a flashlight on a pile of dead trees. Lewis remembered that Pascau was referring to this place that night, and they were just a bunch of living bones in their dreams. Lewis said in surprise, "Lao Jia, we can't go there."
"Come with me." Judson climbed up the tree and never looked back. Lewis had to follow in his footsteps. The wind roared around, and soon they were over the stump. Lewis felt goose bumps from head to toe. They walked on, and suddenly their eyes widened. Judson said, "Here we are. This is Mikmark Cemetery." He motioned Lewis to start digging Chucky's grave.
Lewis asked in surprise, "Lao Jia, what's going on?" Why did you bring me here? "
Judson said, "Because you saved Norma's life." He lit a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth. Lewis stopped asking questions. At the moment, he just wants to bury Jojo quickly.
The next afternoon 1 30, Lewis, who was busy in the garage, saw an amazing scene: Chucky came back with his tail up.
Lewis's heart beat faster, so he approached Chugi and reached for it. Yes, this is Chucky, the real Chucky. There is a sour smell floating out, and Lewis always feels that something is wrong. With muddy eyes and clumsy gait, Chuoki couldn't see his original elegant posture at all. Lewis felt that he smelled of putrefaction. He rushed to the bathroom, took off all the clothes he had just changed in the morning and threw them into the dirty laundry basket.
It turns out that the Mikmark cemetery has the magic of "bringing back the dead". Obviously, this secret is Judson's reward for Lewis. Of course, Lewis's resurrection of Jojo is a good thing. He loves his daughter so much that Ellie loves Jojo. He didn't want to see Ellie sad about Jojo's death. For a father, why not cover up the pain for his daughter for a while?
At this time, Lewis has completely forgotten Pascal's warning to him in his dream. People always ignore some kind reminders when life is calm, but when disaster really comes, they fall into the trap they dug step by step and are hard to extricate themselves.
Part III: Humanity and reincarnation.
On Saturday, Cage deliberately ran away from the lawn in front of her house, leaving Lewis to chase after her. When he was about to run to the side of the road, Lewis heard the horn of the truck. He jumped on Cage, and a shrill horn sounded. The truck drove off the road, leaving Cage lying on the side of the road. Four days later, Cage was buried in Jing Yue cemetery.
On the night after the funeral, Lewis drank alone in pain. Inadvertently, his eyes fell on the dull and eccentric Chucky, and an idea came to Lewis's mind: "When did you bury Cage in that place?"
Lewis thought, if I do it again, I will pay any price to keep Cage alive, even if he is as fake as Jojo.
In order to make the plan go smoothly, Lewis persuaded Rachel to take Ellie back to her hometown. The door of the cemetery was closed in the middle of the night, and Liu Yi shut it in effortlessly. Soon, Cage's tombstone appeared. In the dead of night, I can only hear Lewis shoveling. I don't know how long it took, but the shovel hit the coffin lid. When the coffin was opened, a smell choked his throat and he spit it out in an instant.
The weak light of the flashlight shone on Cage. Cage at this time is like a doll with poor workmanship. His head sticks out and his eyes are embedded in deep eye sockets.
When Lewis carried Cage to Mick Mark's cemetery, he felt a twinge of fear. When the muddy sound under his feet disappeared, he put Cage down and cut the bound tape with a knife.
Early in the morning, Lewis came home, and his extreme drowsiness quickly put him into a deep sleep. It was almost dawn, and there was slow and heavy footsteps on the stairs, followed by an unpleasant smell. The shadow came to Lewis's side, and two pale hands reached into the medicine cabinet beside the bed and pulled out a silver scalpel from it.
Judson, who was asleep, was awakened by the sound of opening the door, and a miserable sob scared all the bones of Judson into ice. Cage came in wearing the clothes she wore when she was buried. Chucky suddenly rushed out of the shadows and tripped Judson. Facing Cage with a scalpel, he waved a whip. Cage's skin fell off like a piece of paper. The scalpel scratched Judson again and again until he had no strength to resist.
Rachel, who lost contact with Lewis, returned to Radlow. When Rachel saw that her car was not in the driveway, she intuitively thought that Lewis was not at home. She decided to ask about Judson first. The door is unlocked. She heard Judson moan and ran upstairs. The door suddenly opened. It was Cage. His bloodstained face was barely stitched up after a serious injury. Rachel opened her arms in surprise and called Cage. Cage ran into her arms and inserted the scalpel hidden behind her into Rachel's body.
Lewis woke up and found mud marks on the floor. Following the footprints, he saw the medicine cabinet opened by the bed, and Lewis instantly understood what had happened. He took out the needle and went to Judson's home.
Lewis pushed open the door and saw Judson's outstretched foot. On the second floor, Rachel lay dead in the aisle. Lewis's spirit began to break down. He looked up dully and saw Cage.
When the scalpel stabbed Lewis, he immediately backed off, and Cage lost his balance and fell to the ground. Lewis rode on him, took out the needle in his pocket and inserted it into Cage's body.
It was a long time before Lewis confirmed for the second time that he was bent on saving his son Cage from death. Lewis looked at the floor with empty eyes. Two hours later, he got up and found a barrel of gasoline in Judson's garage, which poured the whole house. Then he wrapped his beloved wife in a sheet and walked firmly to the forest.
At night, Lewis heard the sound of opening the back door. He didn't look back. At this moment, a footstep dragging on the ground is getting closer and closer. Lewis knew that his beloved wife Rachel had returned. But he doesn't know that what awaits him is no longer a happy life, but another tragic reincarnation.
At first, Judson told Lewis this big secret in return for his kindness. Lewis was delighted with Chucky's resurrection because he loved his daughter, but the strangeness after Chucky's resurrection did not make Lewis realize that it was a wrong choice. After his son Cage died unexpectedly, he still chose to revive Cage, perhaps to punish Judson for revealing the secret. Cage killed him first. When his wife Rachel saw Cage after the resurrection, she was carried away by a strong maternal love and finally died by her son's sword. When Lewis saw all this, he was heartbroken, but he still failed to overcome the weakness of human nature. Greed and selfishness prevailed over reason. There is no doubt that Rachel's resurrection will not make life happy again, and the tragedy is bound to continue to repeat itself.
