Pumpkin Man (2023)

Catherine is obsessed with the legend of Pumpkin Man. She tours Sir Henry’s Haunted Trail and discovers some of the props are historical artifacts.   It turns out Pumpkin Man is a demon and you can summon him if you have the spell.

When she sneaks into an area where the tour doesn’t go, she sees a piano. One of the keys is a dead key and when she hits it, a piece of paper falls out. So no one has hit that key since 1790?

In a huge leap in logic, Catherine believes the paper is proof that Pumpkin Man exists. She believes she’s going to get an A in history because of the note. Sigh.

Why does Catherine want to resurrect a demon?  It will not go well for her, her friends or anyone else in town. And why does no one even consider if there is a spell to stop the demon?

This seems to be a movie for teens.  Catherine looks like she’s in junior high, but I guess she looks young for her age since her best friend applied to college.  The night scenes in the woods are often too dark to tell what is going on.
