Deutsch
Teenager Derek und sein kleiner Bruder Tobey sind neu in der Stadt und wissen noch nicht, dass man die Abkürzung zur High School über das verwilderte Gelände der mysteriösen Familie Hartley besser nicht benutzt. Zu viel Schlimmes sei da den Gerüchten zufolge bereits geschehen. Tobey aber lässt sich nicht abschrecken, stolpert prompt über einen toten Hund und wird vom alten Mr. Hartley verjagt. Das aber macht Derek nur neugierig. Gemeinsam mit dem Schulrowdy, der seinen Hund vermisst, will er das Hartley-Haus einer nächtlichen Inspektion unterziehen.

Nederlands
Een kort weggetje door het bos waarmee de doorgaande route af te snijden is, scheelt een hoop tijd voor menig schoolgaand kind. Maar niemand uit de naburige stadswijk durfde het ooit te nemen. Het pad leidde onder meer langs een spookachtig huis waarvan de bewoner bezoekers kenbaar maakte vooral niet naderbij te komen. Een oude dorpslegende vertelt dat de man ooit betrokken is geweest bij vermissingen van kinderen lange tijd geleden. Nu sommige van de kinderen opgegroeid zijn tot tieners, neemt hun nieuwsgierigheid zodanige proporties aan dat ze besluiten eens uit te zoeken hoe het zit met het betreffende optrekje van wie de bewoner nog steeds schijnt te leven.

Türkçe

Derek, yanına arkadaşlarına da alarak kestirme yolu keşfe çıkar. Yol onları yaşlı adamın tuhaf evine götürür. Bu evde onları büyük bir tehlike beklemektedir.

Atrás da escola há um atalho vedado que poucos se atrevem a tomar. Na cidade, poucos falam abertamente do homem assustador que aparece lá ou das crianças que desapareceram por ali, há muito tempo atrás. Mas um grupo de jovens decide descobrir a verdade.

Пряк път през гората, спестява много време, за да стигнат учениците до училище, но децата растящи в крайградския квартал не смеят да тръгнат по него. Маршрутът преминава в близост до призрачна къща, обитавана от зловещ старец, който ги предупреждава да не се приближават. Градската легенда гласи, че той бил виновен за изчезването на няколко деца, преди време. Но любопитството е характерна черта на младостта и няколко тийнейджъра, решават да разберат истината, която се крие зад историите за стареца и неговата къща.

Amikor Derek (AnDrew Seeley) új városba költözik, rátalál egy, az erdőn át vezető ösvényre a középiskolához, amit senki nem használ, mert egy legenda szerint évekkel ezelőtt egy őrült elrabolt egy tinédzsercsoportot. Nem törődve a figyelmeztetéssel, Derek és barátai elindultak az erdő mélyén eltemetett sötét titok feltárására. De túl fogják élni, hogy elmondják?

Pусский
Старая легенда гласит, что кратчайший путь из деревни в школу проходит мимо загадочного дома, обитатель которого, старик, крайне опасен для детей и подростков, идущих в одиночку через лес. Дети смеялись над страшилкой, но короткой дорогой не ходили. Спустя годы бывшие школьники, ставшие подростками, смело шагают по кратчайшему пути, чтобы проверить легенду и развеять собственные страхи. Каково же было их удивление, когда они набрели на тот самый дом и страшный старик, ожидающий их давно, тоже был там…
