In those moments, just
cry your heart out, -

Come and hold out your
little hand to me.
I shall take you to
the world of dreams.
As long as you have an
honest heart, all is well.
Tiny, Tiny Guests
Everyone, you love receiving
letters, don't you?
Especially ones that
bring tidings of joy.
Letters can reach even Moominvalley.
Hey!
Did you call out for me just now?
I have a letter for you.
That man's going to fall.
Huh?
Yes. Keep going straight ahead.
Straight -
ahead. A little more.
Just a bit more!
He fell! He fell!
Did you dig that?
Yes. It's cool, isn't it?
Curses! Who dug a hole here?
Are you hurt?
Was it you? Is this pitfall your doing?
No, it's not!
Then who did this?
You!!
My! It was you, wasn't it?
Ah! Wait, Mister!
The letter! Please hand me the letter!
Hey! Wait!
Mamma, we have a letter!
Oh, who is it from?
It's from Mymlan.
I see.
Where is My?
She's running
Hey, tell me.
Was that letter from my sister, Mymlan?
I don't know!
I'm in a hurry to know what my
sister wrote to Moominmamma!
Forgive me, please?
I'm not forgiving you, no matter what.
I've already fallen into three
pitfalls here in Moominvalley.
Three times?!
So I missed the first two times, huh
I'm not forgiving you.
I'll never forgive you!
That's dangerous. I'm
going to fall off!
Fall off! Go and fall off!
Hey, wait! Help me!
Someone, help!
It seems their mother is now doing
well, so Mymlan's coming back here.
That's good to know.
Should we go and clean Mymlan's house?
My doesn't know that her sister's
coming back yet, does she?
She doesn't. She's probably
been caught by the postman.
Did she do something again?
Mamma, Mamma!
You received a letter, right?
Is it from my sister?
What did it say?
A few days later, Mymlan came home.
Mymlan is a much taller girl than My.
That's Moominvalley.
There are no scary people
living there, right?
That's what I heard.
There's smoke coming
out of the chimney.
Let's try going to that
house first, shall we?
That's the Moominvilla.
Are you headed for Moominvalley?
Yes, we intend to go there.
That's great then.
I'm going there as well.
That looks heavy.
Shall I carry that suitcase for you?
No need!
We'll carry it ourselves!
Alright.
If I may ask, what kind of
people live in the Moominvilla?
Will you be staying there?
Yes, if they're nice people
Of course they're nice people.
They're taking care of my
little sister right now.
Well then, let's go.
What's the matter?
You can go ahead.
Is that so? Alright then.
Sister!
My, how have you been?
Great!
Mother's doing great now too.
That's good to hear. Well then,
let's hurry. Everyone's waiting.
Oh, right. On my way home,
I met two strange people.
Strange people?
They seemed like a married couple
to me, but I could be wrong.
They were really strange. They said
they were headed for Moominvalley.
Well, there are countless
strange couples in the world.
Thank you for the tea.
Alright, My. It's time to leave.
It's still early.
We need to go home and clean up.
The house has been shut up
for a long time, after all.
Oh, but I opened up the
doors and the windows the -
other day, so the air inside
should be fresh again.
Thank you, Mamma.
Pappa and Moomin as
well, thank you very -
much for taking care
of My for a long time.
Everyone in this house is
happy because they didn't -
have a single moment of
boredom while I was around.
Right, Moomin?
Thank you very much!
Well, well.
What do you mean by
"Well, well." Pappa?
I just thought our home is going
to become quiet from today on.
Indeed.
I think you should try
knocking, after all
I hope no one scary shows up
It's alright. There aren't any
signs of scary people living here.
Hurry up!
Excuse me, you two
Hey, what's the matter?
You forgot your suitcase.
Ah, w-w-what sh-should
w-w-we d-d-d-d-do?
You two, I'm not a bad person.
I've been living here
in Moominvalley for -
a very long time as
the Chief of Police.
Police?!
And Chief?!
Goodness gracious!!
We're not robbers!
We haven't stolen anything!
It's true! We've done no wrong!
No one's saying you did.
So you're not here to arrest us?
Not at all. I have some business
with the residents of this home.
That suitcase belongs to us.
It's true.
There's no need to be so scared.
Please, go ahead.
Oh, you've really come.
So these two are your
guests, Moominmamma?
Yes, it seems so.
You have a suitcase with you,
so I take it you intend to stay over?
Is that right?
Yes, if it's alright.
You're very welcome!
Let's see
I am Tofslan. This is my wife, Vifslan.
Come, now. Please do come in
and make yourselves at home.
It's alright. Let's go, dear.
We'll be taking you up
on that offer then.
What a strange pair.
Indeed.
Did you need anything, Chief?
Yes Well
I heard Mymlan is back
Yes, she is.
So, she's in your house now?
No. She headed home with
My a little while ago.
Oh, they went home.
Oh, I see. Is that so?
They went home then.
I'll go pay them a visit, then.
Oh. Thank you very much, Madam.
It looks like Chief is
smitten with Mymlan.
What about Mymlan?
I don't know about that.
How are our strange guests?
Moomin is entertaining them.
You can use the closet and
the drawers as you please.
Thank you, Moomin.
Where should we place this?
Why don't we place it in this drawer?
We can fit inside as well.
But then they prepared
us such a lovely bed!
Alright then. Let's at least
hide the trunk, though.
Precaution is needed.
The residents of the Moominhouse
are such kind people!
We can't be too careful, though.
We've had a lot of
guests at home before,
but those two are
really strange.
They say they're from the north, right?
They're called Tofslan and Vifslan.
Hmm, I don't think I've heard of them.
It feels to me as if they ran away from
something
So mysterious runaways are staying
over at the Moominhouse
Want to come and see?
Yes. I'll try meeting them.
Hello. I see you're all here.
The guests?
The room was quiet.
They said they wanted to sleep,
so they're probably sleeping.
What do you think about
those two, Pappa?
Nothing in particular. It seems to
me they're caught in some situation.
What kind of situation?
Well, that, I don't know.
I think they ran away
from somewhere, Pappa.
Who knows. However, I
think it's best not to -
overindulge your imagination
about this, everyone.
Snufkin, Sniff, you'll both
have some tea too, won't you?
Yes.
Yes, please. And some cake too.
Tofslan?
The trunk is gone too.
Oh, what do I do?
Oh dear, what do I do? What do I do?
Oh, what do I do?
You're awake.
So you were under the bed, then.
It's the place I feel safest in.
I feel a sense of foreboding.
It's why I woke up.
That creature is coming.
Do you think she'll
know that we're here?
She'll definitely know.
She'll come here.
When night falls, she'll
definitely come here.
The winds are dreadfully strong
tonight, don't you think?
Yes, and it seems colder
all of the sudden.
Hello.
I see you're awake.
Well, why don't you join us for tea?
Oh, so it's these two!
Ah, these are my friends,
Snufkin and Sniff.
No need to be afraid.
What's the matter?
She's coming!
That creature's coming!
Who is this creature?
Morran!
Morran?
A terrifying woman.
A woman?
Ah. Morran.
Do you know her?
Yes. I haven't seen her, but she's
a terrifying female monster.
M-monster?
So she's after you two?
She'll come. Definitely.
I understand.
No matter what kind of
creature comes, we're not -
letting her take a single
step into the house.
Really?
B-but, she's a monster, you know!
Monster or whatever
else, we must fight -
against whoever is
tormenting these two.
Go and stay quietly in your room.
We'll protect you two no matter what.
Thank you, Moominpappa.
I'll fight too, Pappa.
And I.
Well then, let's prepare for battle.
Yes.
Everyone, it's time for dinner.
Did something happen?
A monster is coming to
attack us tonight, Mamma.
Oh my.
You'll definitely fight
too, won't you, Mamma?
Let's see What else
can we use as weapons?
Oh, it's midnight.
Morran probably isn't coming tonight
I hope that's so.
Is she coming? Is she here?
She's very near!
I'm going home!
No matter how long we wait,
no monster is coming!
Even if we keep watch 'til
morning, she won't come!
I see. Alright then.
Well Well, then. I'm
really heading home now!
Go ahead.
Be careful on your way.
There's nothing to be careful of.
Alright then, good night!
She's here.
You're joking!
There isn't any monster!
The candlelight was just
blown off by the wind!
See? There's no one.
If you really think so, you're free to
open the door and head home, Sniff.
You're all thinking I'm to
scared to do so, aren't you?
Alright! I'll show you!
I'm going home.
There's no one, see.
Ouch, ouch.
What is it, Sniff?
Outside! There! She was!
Where?
Outside! Just outside!
Beside the doorway!
Alright.
No! Don't open the door! She'll get in!
Let's go, everyone.
She's not here.
She's not?
Really?
Oh! She really isn't!
I see.
We were noisy, so she ran away.
Big creature, big coward!
She's over there!
What did you come here for, Morran?
You're not welcome here!
Go away. Else, I'll shoot you.
I'll strike at your head.
I'll beat you with this club.
I'm serious!
You'd better be gone within ten counts.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
Six.
Seven.
Eight.
Nine!
We did it! We did it!
Are you alright?
Look, Snufkin!
It's frozen.
That's Morran's voice.
So cold!
It is.
She's probably not coming back tonight.
Come. Let's go back inside the house.
Morran didn't come again that night.
Even so though, what could
Morran have come for?
Would she really come once again?
What could be inside Tofslan
and Vifslan's suitcase?
We tried asking them, but
they won't tell us at all.
What we do know is that
Morran is coming to my -
house once again to take
back what's inside.
