Chief Turner, who witnessed his head fall down, is frightened by the Jangly Man, and he starts shooting his head, this doesn't kill the Jangly Man however, and his other body parts fall down the chimney afterwards. The body parts attach themselves together, forming the Jangly Man.

After combing together, the Jangly Man snaps Chief Turners neck and throws him at Stella Nicholls' jail cell, killing him. The Jangly Man then enters the room that Stella and Ramón Morales are in, creepily walking towards Ramón's cell and eventually shoving himself in between the bars of the cell. The Jangly Man yells at Ramón and attempts to grab him. Ramón is fortunately freed by Stella and the two escape the police station while the Jangly Man struggles to break free from the bars he's between in.

The Jangly Man somehow manages to get free from his predicament and goes outside in the pouring rain. He chases after Ramón in Chief Turner's car and is able to get on the roof of the car before violently smashing it's windows until getting onto the car's hood. Ramón intentionally crashes the car into a truck, trapping the Jangly Man once again while Ramón escapes and goes to the Bellows house. The Jangly Man struggles escaping before detaching himself and reattaching himself back together, and he follows Ramone to the Bellows house where once they come face to face with each other. He holds up Ramón, though Sarah Bellows ends her curse before the Jangly Man can kill Ramón, provoking the Jangly Man's body parts to collapse, freeing Ramón.

Wait Till Martin Comes

**Wait Till Martin Comes** is a story from Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. The story is meant to be comedic. Based on an African American folktale from the southeastern United States. Variants often changing it to "Emmet," "Patience,: or "Whalem-Balem."

## Plot

An old man was out for a walk. When a storm came up, he looked for a place to take shelter. Soon he came to an old house. He ran up on the porch and knocked on the door, but nobody answered.
By now rain was pouring down, thunder was booming, and lightning was flashing. So he tried the door. When he found it was unlocked, he went inside.

Except for a pile of wooden boxes, the house was empty. He broke up some of the old boxes and made a fire with them. Then he sat down in front of the fire and dried himself. It was so warm and cozy that he fell asleep.

When he woke up, a black cat was sitting near the fire. It stared at him for a while. Then it purred. "That's a nice cat," he thought, and he dozed off again. When he opened his eyes, there was a second cat in the room. But this one was as big as a wolf. It looked at him very closely, and it asked, "Shall we do it now?" "No," said the other cat. "Let's wait till Martin comes."
"I must be dreaming," thought the old man. He closed his eyes again. Then he took another look.
But now there was a third cat in the room, and this one was as big as a tiger. It looked the old man over, and it asked, "Shall we do it now?" "No," said the others. "Let's wait till Martin comes."

The old man jumped up, jumped out the window and started running. "When Martin comes, you tell him I couldn't wait," he called.
The Man In The Middle

**The Man In The Middle** is a story about a woman who has a scary encounter on a subway train. It appears in More Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. Based on a common urban legend in New York, London, and Paris. The story was also used in the turn of the century but with a horse car, or a horse drawn bus in Fifth Avenue, New York during a snowstorm.

## The Story

It was almost midnight. Sally Truitt had just gotten on the subway train at Fiftieth Street after visiting her mother. "Don't worry," Sally had told her. "The subway is safe. There is a policeman on duty." But that night she didn't see one. Except for her, the subway car was empty.
At Forty-second Street, three tough-looking men got on. Two of them were holding up the third, who looked drunk. His head rolled from side to side, and his legs refused to work.
When they got him seated between them, his head came to rest on one of his shoulders. Sally thought he was staring at her. She buried her head in a book and tried not to notice.

At Twenty-eighth Street, one of the men stood up. "Take it easy, Jim," he said to the man in the middle, and he got off. At Twenty-third Street, Jim's other friend stood up.
"You'll be fine," he said, and he got off.

Now the only ones left in the car were Jim and Sally. Just then the train went around a sharp curve, and Jim pitched onto the floor at Sally's feet. When she looked down at him, she saw a trickle of blood on the side of his head and, just above it, a bullet hole.

The Cat's Paw

**The Cat's Paw** is a story about a man who finds a large cat on his property, only to find out it's human after all. The story appears in More Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. Based on an Ozark folktale from Vance Randolph's Ozark Mountain Folks, originally called "The Cat's Foot."

## The Story

Somebody was stealing the meat Jed Smith kept in his smokehouse. Everyday a ham, or some bacon, or something else was missing. Finally, Jed decided he had to put a stop to it. One night he hid in the smokehouse with his rifle and waited for the thief.

He didn't have to wait long, for soon a black she-cat slunk in. She was the biggest cat Jed had ever seen. When she jumped up and pulled down a ham hanging from the ceiling, Jed grabbed his rifle and turned on the lights. But instead of running away, the cat jumped at him. He fired, and shot off one of her paws.

Jed was sure he heard a woman scream right after his gun went off. The cat began tearing around the room, spitting and yowling. Then she ran up the chimney and was gone. Jed stared at the cat's paw. Only it wasn't a cat's paw anymore. A woman's foot lay wriggling on the floor, all shot up and bloody.

"So it's a witch that's been doing it," he told himself. Just then one of Jed's neighbors, a fellow named Burdick, came racing down the road to get a doctor. His wife's foot had been shot in an accident, he told Jed. "She's bleedin' pretty bad," he said. The doctor got to her barely in time. People who were there when it happened say she was "spittin' and yowlin' just like a cat."

May I Carry Your Basket?

**May I Carry Your Basket?** is a story from Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. It tells the story of a basket with a scary surprise inside. It was based on a story told by one of the informants, Tom O' Brien by his English father at the turn of the century. As well as a Native American tale in Mexico about a skull that chases anyone that passes by it.

## Plot

Sam Louis spent the evening, playing chess at his friend's house. It was about midnight when they finished the game, and he started home. Outside, it was icy cold and quiet as a grave.
As he came around a turn in the road, he was surprised to see a woman, walking ahead of him. She was carrying a basket covered with a white cloth. When he got up to her, he looked to see who she was. But she was so bundled up against the cold, it was hard to see her face.

"Good evening," Sam said, "What brings you out so late?" But she didn't answer. Then he said, "May I carry your basket?" She handed it to him. And from under the cloth, a small voice said, "That's very nice of you." And it was followed by a wild laughter. Sam was so startled that he dropped the basket, and out rolled a woman's head. He looked at the head, and he stare at the woman. "It's her head!" he cried, and started to run, and the woman and her head began to chase him.

Soon, the head caught up with him. It mounded into the air and sunk its teeth into Sam's left leg. Sam screamed with pain and ran faster. But the woman and her head stay right behind. Soon the head leaped into the air again, and bit into his other leg. Then they were gone.
Old Woman All Skin and Bone

**Old Woman All Skin and Bones** is a song in Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. It tells the story of a woman who visits a church and realizes that she will become a corpse soon enough.

## Lyrics

There was an old woman all skin and bone

who lived near the graveyard all alone.

O-o-o-o-o-o!

She thought she’d go to church one day

To hear the parson preach and pray.

O-o-o-o-o-o!

And when she came to the church-house stile

She thought she stop and rest awhile.

O-o-o-o-o-o!

When she came up to the door

She thought she’d stop and rest some more.

O-o-o-o-o-o!

But when she turned and looked around

She saw a corpse upon the ground.

O-o-o-o-o-o!

From its nose down to its chin

The worms crawled out, and the worms crawled in.

O-o-o-o-o-o!

The woman to the preacher said,

“Shall I look like that when I am dead?”

O-o-o-o-o-o!

The preacher to the woman said,

“You'll look like that when you are dead!”

“AAAAAAAAAAAH!”
Bess

**Bess** is a story about a man and his beloved horse sharing the same fate. The story appears in Scary Stories 3: More Tales to Chill your Bones. A retelling of a legend associated with Oleg the Wise, collected by Max Luthi.

## The Story

John Nicholas raised horses. He had many horses of all kinds. But his favorite was Bess, a gentle old mare he had grown up with. He no longer rode her, for all she could now was just amble along. Bess spent her days grazing peacefully in the meadow.

That summer, for the fun of it, John Nicholas went into a fortune teller's booth. The fortune teller studied her cards. "I see danger ahead for you," she said. "Your favorite horse will cause you to die. I don't know when, but it will happen. It is in the cards."
John Nicholas laughed. The idea that Bess would cause his death was nonsense. She was as dangerous as a bowl of soup. Yet from then on, whenever he saw her, he remembered the fortune teller's warning.

That fall a farmer from the other end of the county asked if he could have Bess. He had been thinking that the old horse will be perfect for his children to ride.
"That's a good idea," John said. "It will be fun for them and it will give Bess something to do."

Later John told his wife about it. "Now Bess won't kill me," he said, and they both laughed.
A few months later he saw the farmer who had taken her. "How's my Bess?" he asked.
"Oh, she was fine for a while," the farmer said. "The children loved her. Then she got sick. I had to shoot her to put her out of her misery. It was a shame."

Despite himself, John breathed a sigh of relief. He wondered as if some crazy way, through some strange accident, Bess would kill him. Now, of course, she could not. "I like to see her," said John, "just to say good-bye. She was my favorite."

The bones of the dead horse were in a far corner of the man's farm. John knelled down and patted Bess' sun-bleached skull. Just then a rattlesnake, which had made its home inside the skull, sank its fangs into John Nicholas's arm, and killed him.
The Little Black Dog

**The Little Black Dog** is a story from More Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. It is about a ghostly dog who follows a man everywhere he goes. Based on a Ozark Mountains tale "Si Burton's Little Black Dog."

## Plot

Billy Mansfield said that a little black dog followed him wherever he went. But he was the only one who saw it. So people thought he was kind of crazy. To drive the dog away, Billy was always hollering at it, throwing rocks at it. But the dog always came back.

The first time Billy saw that dog was the day he fought Silas Burton. Billy was just a young man then, but the Burtons and Billy's family had been feuding for years. When Billy saw Silas riding toward him, he went for his gun and Burton went for his. But Billy fired first. He hit Burton in the back, knocking him from his horse. Burton's horse ran off, and his gun fell where he couldn't reach it. He lay there on the ground pleading with Billy not to kill him, but Billy killed him anyway. Burton's little black dog was with him when he was shot. The dog kept licking Burton's face, and barking and snarling at Billy. In his anger, Billy killed the dog too.

There wasn't much law enforcement in those days, so Billy wasn't arrested. But all that night he heard Burton's dog outside his cabin, scratching on his door and barking to be let in. "I'm imagining this," Billy said to himself. "I shot that dog. It's dead." But the next morning Billy saw the dog. It was waiting for him outside. From then on there was not a day when he didn't see it. And there wasn't a night when he didn't hear it scratching on his door, barking to be let in.

From then on, Billy was always finding black dog hairs on the sofa, on the floor, in his bed, even in his food. And the house and the yard stank of dog. That's what Billy said. Whenever somebody told him there wasn't any dog to see, he'd say, "Maybe you don't see it, but I do. And I'm not any crazier than you are."

Things went on like that for many years. Then one morning in the middle of the winter, the neighbors didn't see any smoke coming out of Billy's chimney. When they went over to check, Billy wasn't there. A day or so later they found his body lying in the snow in a field back of his cabin. Billy had plenty of enemies, and at first it seemed like somebody might have killed him. But there wasn't a mark on his body. And there weren't any footprints out there, except for Billy's.

The doctor said Billy probably died of old age. But there was something odd about his death. When the neighbors found Billy, there were black dog hairs on his clothes. There were even a few on his face. It smelled like a dog had been out there. Yet no one had seen a dog anywhere.
What Do You Come For?

**What do you come for?** is a story from Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. It tells the story of a corpse who comes down a chimney. Inspired by the 19th century Scottish folktale "The Strange Visitor."

## Plot

There was an old woman who lived all by herself, and she was very lonely. Sitting in the kitchen one night, she said, “Oh, I wish I had some company.”

No sooner had she spoken than down the chimney tumbled two feet from which the flesh had rotted. The old woman’s eyes bulged with terror.

Then two legs dropped to the hearth and attached themselves to the feet.

Then a body tumbled down, then two arms, and a man’s head.

As the old woman watched, the parts came together into a great, gangling man. The man danced around and around the room. Faster and faster he went. Then he stopped, and he looked into her eyes.

“What do you come for?” she asked in a small voice that shivered and shook.

“What do I come for?” he said. “I come—FOR YOU!”

(As you shout the last words, stamp your foot and jump at someone nearby.)

Me Tie Dough-ty Walker!

**Me Tie Dough-ty Walker!** is a story about a haunted house where a severed head falls down the chimney every night. It appears in Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. A retelling of an old Kentucky story named "The Rash Dog and the Bloody Head," collected by Dr. Herbert Halpert in Bloomington, Indiana. It was one of the many stories that inspired the Jangly Man for Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark 2019.

## The Story

There was a haunted house where every night, a bloody head fell down the chimney- At least that's what people said. So nobody would stay there overnight. Then a rich man offered two-hundred dollars to whoever would do it. And this boy said he would try, if he could have his dog with him. So it was all settled. The very next night, the boy went to the house with his dog. To make it more cheerful, he started a fire in the fireplace. Then he sat in front of the fire and waited, and his dog waited with him.

For a while, nothing happened. But a little after midnight, he heard someone singing softly and sadly out in the woods. The singing sounded something like this: "Me Tie Dough-ty Walker!" "It's just somebody singing," the boy told himself, but he was frightened. Then his dog answered the song. Softly and sadly it sang: "Lynchee Kinchy Colly Molly Dingo Dingo!"

The boy could not believe his ears. His dog had never uttered a word before. Then a few minutes later, he heard the singing again. Now it was closer and louder, but the words were the same:
"Me Tie Dough-ty Walker!" This time, the boy tried to stop his dog from answering. He was afraid that whoever was singing would hear it and come after them. But his dog paid no attention and again it sang: "Lynchee Kinchy Colly Molly Dingo Dingo!" A half-hour later, the boy heard the singing again. Now it was in the backyard, and the song was the same. "Me Tie Dough-ty Walker!"

Again the boy tried to keep his dog quiet, but the dog sang louder than ever: "Lynchee Kinchy Colly Molly Dingo Dingo!" Soon, the boy heard the singing again. Now it was coming down the chimney: "ME TIE DOUGH-TY WALKER!" The dog sang right back: "LYNCHEE KINCHY COLLY MOLLY DINGO DINGO!" Suddenly, a bloody head fell out of the chimney. It missed the fire, and landed right next to the dog. The dog took one look, and fell over, dead from fright. The head turned and stared at the boy. It slowly opened its mouth and screamed.
Boo Men

**Boo Men** is the prologue to Scary Stories 3: More Tales to Chill your Bones. It gives a brief summary of the stories in the book as well as society's reasoning to sharing scary stories. Boo Men originated from Newfoundland, as mentioned in "If You Don't Be Good" from "The Boogeyman: Some Preliminary Observations of Frightening Figures" by John Widdowson.

## The Story

The girl was late getting home for supper. So she took a shortcut through the cemetery. But, oh, it made her nervous. When she saw another girl ahead of her, she hurried to catch up. "Do you mind if I walk with you?" she asked. "Walking through the cemetery at night scares me." "I know what you mean," the other girl said. "I used to feel that way myself when I was alive."

There are all sorts of things that scare us. The dead scare us, for one day we will be dead like they are. The dark scares us, for we don't know what is waiting in the dark. At night the sound of leaves rustling, or branches groaning, or someone whispering, makes us uneasy. So do footsteps coming closer. So do strange figures we think we see in the shadows - a human maybe, or a big animal, or some horrible thing we can barely make out.

People call these creatures we think we see "boo men." We imagine them, they say. But now and then a boo man turns out to be real. Queer happenings scare us, too. We hear of a boy or a girl who was raised by an animal, a human being like us who yelps and howls and runs on all fours. The thought of it makes our flesh crawl. we hear of insects that make their nests in a person's body or of a nightmare that comes true, and we shudder. If such things really do happen, then they could happen to us.

It is from such fears that scary stories grow. This is the third book of such stories I have collected. I learned some of them from people I met. I found others, tales that had been written down, in folklore archives and in libraries. As we always do with tales we learn, I have told them in my own way. Some stories in this book have been told only in recent times. But others have been part of our folklore for as long as we know. As one person told another, the details may have changes. But the story itself has not, for what once frightened people still frightens them. I thought at first that one of the stories I found was a modern story. It is the one I call "The Bus Stop." I then discovered that a similar story had been told two thousand years earlier in ancient Rome. but the young woman involved was named Philinnion, not Joanna, as she is in our story.

Are the stories in this book true? The one I call "The Trouble" is true. I can't be sure about the others. Most may have at least a little truth, for strange things sometimes happen, and people love to tell about them and turn them into even better stories.

Nowadays most people say that they don't believe in ghosts and queer happenings and such. Yet they still fear the dead and the dark. And they still see boo men waiting in the shadows. And they still tell scary stories, just as people always have. - Alvin Schwartz.

The Pale Lady eventually does encounter Chuck while walking through the Pennhurst Hospital, slowly approaching the lost Chuck Steinberg. Chuck attempts to find any exit out of the now red lit-up room he is in order to escape the Pale Lady, but the Pale Lady simultaneously appears in every hallway Chuck enters, somehow stalking multiple corridors of the hospital.

The Church

**The Church** is a story from More Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. The story is meant to be comedic. Based on a story collected by Vance Randolph in Sticks in the Knapsack and Other Ozark Folktales.

## Plot

A man named Larry Berger was brave and never feared anybody who was living. But anybody who was dead scared the wits out of him.

One night Larry was out driving in the country in his old jeep when he got caught in a bad thunderstorm. The rain was coming down in sheets. Since his jeep didn't have a top to it, Larry started looking for a place to take shelter.
But at the first place he came to he didn't even slow down. It was an old deserted cabin, probably as dry as a bone inside. But Larry knew for a fact that it was haunted, and he wasn't going to stay there.

A few miles farther, he came to an old abandoned church standing all alone in a field. It hadn't been used in years. All the window glass was gone, but it still had sections of the roof intact. So Larry parked his jeep and ran inside.
It was as dark as could be in there. Larry groped around until he found a pew and sat down. It was nice and dry, just as he had thought it would be, and he stretched out his legs and made himself comfortable.

Suddenly there was a big flash of lightning, and Larry saw that he wasn't the only one in that church. There were people sitting in almost every pew. They all had their heads bowed as if they were praying, and they all were dressed in white. "These must be ghosts sitting in their shrouds," Larry thought. "They must have come in from some graveyard to get dry."

Larry jumped up and ran down the aisle as fast as he could, right smack into one of those ghosts. And the ghost, he went--BAA-A-A!
The Babysitter

**The Babysitter** is a story from Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. It tells the story of a babysitter going through a scary experience. Based on a popular urban legend that was loosely based on the real-life unsolved murder of Janett Christman in 1950.

## The Story

It was nine o'clock in the evening. Everybody was sitting on the couch in front of the TV. There were Richard, Brian, Jenny and Doreen, the babysitter. The telephone rang. "Maybe it's your mother," said Doreen. She picked up the phone. Before she could say a word, a man laughed hysterically and hung up.

"Who was it?" asked Richard. "Some nut," said Doreen. "What did I miss?" At nine-thirty the telephone rang again. Doreen answered it. It was the man who had called before. "I'll be there soon," he said, and he laughed and hung up. "Who was it?" the children asked. "Some crazy person," she said. About ten o'clock the phone rang again. Jenny got it first. "Hello," she said. It was the same man. "One more hour," he said, and he laughed and hung up. "He said, 'One more hour.' What did he mean?" asked Jenny.

"Don't worry," said Doreen. "It's somebody fooling around." "I'm scared," said Jenny. About ten-thirty the telephone rang once more. When Doreen picked it up, the man said, "Pretty soon now," and he laughed. "Why are you doing this?" Doreen screamed, and he hung up. "Was it that guy again?" asked Brian. "Yes," said Doreen. "I'm going to call the operator and complain."

The operator told her to call back if it happened again, and she would try to trace the call.
At eleven o'clock the telephone rang again. Doreen answered it. "Very soon now," the man said, and he laughed and hung up. Doreen called the operator. Almost at once she called back. "That person is calling from a telephone upstairs," she said. "You'd better leave. I'll get the police." Just then a door upstairs opened. A man they had never seen before started down the stairs towards them. As they ran from the house, he was smiling in a very strange way. A few minutes later, the police found him there and arrested him.

Évidence de l'éternel

## Description de l'objet

Trouvé dans des ruines du pays de Pandarie, cette amulette n'a d'origine que les questions qui l'entourent. On ne sait d'où elle vient, pourquoi elle était là, et qui a pu la concevoir. Une cordelette de cuir ornée d'un pendentif taillé pour représenter un cocon archaïque, aux éclats d'ambre, on y sent une légère vibration, ainsi qu'une douce chaleur qui s'en échappe. On suppose que l'objet a autrefois appartenu à un natif du pays, et il semble réagir aux actes violents, luisant quand un coup risque d'être porté.

***Le prix de l'objet est estimé à dix écus d'Or par le Comptoir.***

## Effet(s) connu(s)

* Les éclats d'ambre se mettent à luire quand vous allez subir une attaque. ***[ Bonus de +5 sur le premier jet de défense du combat si l'origine de l'attaque est connue. ]***
* Vous sentez une énergie nouvelle traverser vos membres. ***[ +1 Endurance. Non-cumulable avec un autre bonus de même catégorie. ]***

## Páginas Relevantes

**Uma** es un personaje principal y el antagonista principal que apareció en Descendientes 2. Ella es la hija de Ursula, la archienemiga de Mal y es la líder de su pandilla de piratas. Uma ha usado la ausencia de Mal en la Isla de los Perdidos para subir al poder como la autoproclamada reina de la Isla.

**Uma** es interpretada por China Anne McClain.

## Transfondo

### Personalidad

Uma es pícara, sarcástica y ambiciosa. Aunque tenga una dura apariencia física, le preocupa mucho por su tripulación y otras personas malentendidas en la Isla de los Perdidos. Se muestra que es capaz de ser altruista en momentos más tensos. Cuando Harry regresó del agua tras lanzarse por su garfio, a pesar de que iba de prisa en la pelea contra Mal, Uma se paró un momento y ayudó a su amigo a subir al muelle.

Sin embargo, Uma tiene una diferente forma de tratar a las personas ajenas y enemigos, como Mal. Es manipulativa y usa todas formas posibles para mantener a su rival en la palma de su mano, incluyendo secuestrar a Ben para asegurar que Mal le entregue la Varita Mágica de Hada Madrina.

A pesar de la opinión de la mayoría, Uma es solamente "una chica enojada con un mal plan" que busca ser escuchada.

### Descripción Física

Uma se describe como una chica con el cabello azul turquesa trenzado. Ella tiene por encima del cabello un color marrón. Tiene tez morena. En su mayoría ella usa un traje de cuero azul con brillantes y anillos color aguamarina (turquesa). En Descendants 2 ella lucía una chaqueta de cuero azul turquesa y su cabello era más largo con trenzas largas y más oscuras.
