Gary is just there to collect a paycheck and has the kids watch VHS's of old horror movies (the first one being Cujo (1983)) while he sits in the back doing research on the ongoing tremors in the area. Callie starts Phoebe in summer school and meets her teacher Gary ( Paul Rudd) as she drops her off. She notices a chess board with an initial move made so she makes a move from her side of the board. In the following days Phoebe begins exploring the farm while using the PKE meter. Trevor applies to work at the burger joint because he is smitten with the girl who works there named Lucky ( Celeste O'Connor). They find that it's a very small southern town where everyone knew of the mysterious man they all called "the dirt farmer" since there was no evidence he ever grew any crops. Callie takes Trevor and Phoebe into town to eat after she admits to them that they will be staying there for a while until she can figure out what to do. Phoebe spots the PKE meter under the chair her grandfather was in when he died. The ground begins to shake in what appears to be tremors from an earthquake, and the family huddle under a table. As they're looking around, Janine (the Ghostbusters' receptionist) walks in and tells them that Callie's dad (Egon) had a lot of debt and a valueless farm. They find a dilapidated house full of clutter. Callie gets notice that her father has passed away in his farmhouse in Oklahoma and takes the kids with her to collect anything of value including the home. We meet Callie ( Carrie Coon) and her kids Trevor ( Finn Wolfhard) and Phoebe ( Mckenna Grace) as they are getting evicted from their apartment. Back in the house, the PKE meter activates again eluding to a new ghost nearby. A spirit orb is seen leaving the house from outside. Egon is attacked in his chair and the PKE meter falls to the floor and turns off. As fog fills the room, his PKE begins to light up and it's arms extend reminiscent of when a ghost is present. He hides the trap in a compartment under the wood floor and then sits in a chair with his PKE meter. But they short out before powering on the device they were intended for and Egon quickly goes inside and shuts the door. When it is in position, Egon stomps the pedal and several electric towers begin to activate. The old man is Egon Spengler and he readies a foot pedal switch as invisible steps are seen advancing in the dirt across the field. He gets to the porch and turns around and holds up the trap baiting the unseen spirit in the corn field. The man stumbles out into an open field in front of an old farm house. His truck is being chased by an unseen creature that is eventually able to sideswipe the vehicle and send it crashing into a cornfield. He looks down at the passenger seat and touches a ghost trap that's holding a spirit. The driver is a bearded elderly man ( Oliver Cooper) obscured in the darkness of his truck's cabin. Then an old pickup truck comes hauling out of the mine shaft and down a desolate rural road. In the pre-title sequence, a proton blast shoots out the top of a mine shaft at the Shandor Mining Company and into a swirling vortex of clouds under a midnight sky.
