00:00While alone in a coffee shop thinking about life, Wilson is approached by a family man
00:04who hands over his cell phone and asks if the man can take a picture of him with his
00:08wife and children.
00:09December has just begun, but everyone is already looking forward to Christmas.
00:13Despite the festive atmosphere, Wilson is as apathetic as every other day and lives
00:18his life in automatic mode.
00:19Later, when he returns home, he realizes that he has locked himself out of the building,
00:24so he calls his neighbor for help.
00:26As soon as she opens the door, Wilson takes the elevator up to his floor and decides
00:30to knock on Red's apartment to thank her for her kindness.
00:33When she discovers that the man is her new neighbor, Red invites him in and says she's
00:38looking for company for Christmas.
00:39During the conversation, the woman discovers that Wilson is an actor and reveals that, when
00:44she was young, she also had her moment in front of the cameras.
00:47The next day, after practicing the lines of a character exhaustively, Wilson is called
00:52to take an acting test, but he passes within the first few minutes, after performing a
00:56sequence of movements described by the assessor.
00:59When he sees Wilson, Finn orders his assistant to send all the other actors home, as he will
01:04be the one chosen to play Pooka.
01:06At this point, Wilson is introduced to the bizarre stuffed rabbit who repeats almost everything
01:10that is said around him.
01:11However, what sets Pooka apart from an ordinary tape recorder is the fact that the person doesn't
01:16choose the phrases that the stuffed animal will record and repeat.
01:19The creature chooses what it will play back according to its mood and Finn wants to make
01:23the toy famous to ensure Christmas sales.
01:26Without understanding why he has been hired, Wilson asks how he can help them with the sales
01:30of that doll, as he is only an actor.
01:32At this point, Finn decides to take him down to the basement, where dozens of copies of
01:37Pooka are stored in gift boxes.
01:39As well as the stuffed animals, there is also a costume very similar to the toy that Wilson
01:44must wear to promote him.
01:45Finn's aim in hiring a professional actor to bring the costume to life is to convey
01:49Pooka's personality.
01:50After putting on the costume, Wilson says he feels comfortable in it and Finn says they
01:55were made for each other.
01:56While testing the actor's mobility inside the costume, Finn asks him to do the same
02:00movements he did during the entrance test and suddenly Wilson runs out of air.
02:04Concerned, the sales director removes his head from the suit to check that the actor
02:08is okay and realizes that he was suffocating.
02:11After recovering, Wilson decides to turn down the job, but when he sees the amount described
02:15in the contract, he changes his mind, as he needs money to support himself while he can't
02:20get a real job.
02:21When he gets home, Wilson puts on the costume once more to try and get used to it, but after
02:26putting it on, the man starts to freak out and destroys everything in sight in a fit of
02:31rage.
02:31Hours later, he opens the door to his apartment and is startled to see all his belongings on
02:36the floor.
02:37Apparently, Wilson takes on a new personality when he's wearing that outfit and doesn't
02:41remember anything he did while embodying Pooka's personality.
02:44Upon being informed of the break-in, Red offers to help Wilson reorganize his home and
02:49the man tries to understand how someone could have broken into the apartment while he was
02:52away, as there was no sign that the door had been damaged.
02:56In gratitude for his neighbor's kindness, Wilson buys her a Christmas tree as a present,
03:00but when the man leaves for work, Red senses that he is being stalked by something dark.
03:05After filming some fun dances to attract the attention of a younger audience, Wilson realizes
03:10that all his efforts are paying off, as Pooka has become a sales phenomenon.
03:14That afternoon, while taking some photos, Wilson spots Melanie with her son in the queue and
03:19is immediately attracted to her.
03:21When he realizes that his co-worker is interested in this woman, Finn decides to go after her
03:26and takes her card, as he discovers that Melanie is a real estate agent.
03:30When he gets home, Wilson immediately starts researching her and discovers that the woman
03:34has advertised a house for sale.
03:36Later, Pooka shows up and finds this information on Wilson's computer.
03:39So he also decides to go and pay Melanie a visit.
03:43As the house is open for viewing, the actor decides to go there and introduces himself
03:47as a possible buyer.
03:49After showing the whole house, Melanie receives an invitation to dinner, but says it's too
03:53early for that and gives Wilson her phone number so that he can contact her again in
03:57the future.
03:58Excited about the meeting, the man goes to Red's house and describes every detail of Melanie,
04:02as he is totally enchanted by the woman.
04:05During the conversation, Wilson hears a noise coming from his apartment and decides to go there
04:09to find out what's going on.
04:11When he gets to his room, he sees Pooka punching the wall with his red eyes, as if he's feeling
04:16very angry.
04:17When the actor appears, the creature lunges at him and Wilson moves away, but soon notices
04:22the presence of bloodstains on his hands and realizes that it was he himself who was
04:26punching the wall.
04:27A few days later, he finally convinces Melanie to join him for dinner and wears gloves to
04:32hide the wound on his hands.
04:33In an attempt to explain why he was wearing that pair of gloves, Wilson claims that he burned
04:38himself while cooking and ends up winning some points with the woman, as she reveals
04:42that she has always been attracted to men who can cook.
04:45The next day, Wilson shows up at Melanie's house with a present for Tyler and the boy
04:49is extremely happy when he finds out that he has won a Pooka doll.
04:52At the end of another working day, Wilson takes the bus home, but this time he decides to go
04:57out wearing his costume.
04:58When he arrives at the building, he takes the elevator and walks to Red's apartment.
05:03When the woman opens the door, the monster attacks her and then leaves.
05:06Throughout the night, Wilson remembers what he did while dressed as Pooka and can't sleep
05:11because he feels like the worst person in the world.
05:14In the morning, he decides to go and check that Red is alright and, when he opens the
05:18door to her apartment, he notices that everything is in place.
05:21Suddenly, his neighbor appears and Wilson is surprised to discover that she is fine, as
05:26the attack the night before never happened.
05:28Even though he knows there's something wrong, the actor decides to keep his job, because it's
05:32what will move his relationship with Melanie forward.
05:34One day, in the middle of the night, Wilson wakes up to the sound of police cars, but when
05:39he looks out of the window he doesn't see any vehicles.
05:42In an attempt to find out what's going on, he walks to his bedroom and finds a body covered
05:47in a white sheet next to a pool of blood.
05:49Worried, he removes the sheet to see the victim's face and comes across two mannequins with holes
05:54in their heads.
05:55Seeing all that blood spreading across the floor, Wilson starts screaming in despair and realizes
06:00that Pooka was responsible for the attack.
06:03When he wakes up, the man is relieved to know that it was all just a bad dream and gets ready
06:07to go to the Christmas party at Melanie's house.
06:10When he finds out that Tyler has called some friends to attend the event, Wilson decides
06:14to surprise the boy and shows up at the party dressed as Pooka.
06:18As soon as the doll appears, all the children celebrate and start dancing with him.
06:22At that moment, one of Tyler's classmates gets jealous and starts teasing the boy.
06:27At this point, they both start fighting and Tyler is the only one who sees Pooka attacking
06:31the young man during the event.
06:33Luckily, the young man wasn't hurt and Melanie tries to find out who the guy under the costume
06:38was.
06:38The woman says that an unbalanced person like that shouldn't work around children and
06:42Wilson tries to apologize by saying that he could never have imagined that something
06:46like that would happen.
06:47At this point, they start arguing and Wilson gets upset, so Melanie orders him to leave immediately.
06:53When he gets home, the man is feeling short of breath, so he puts on the costume
06:57so that he can breathe normally again.
06:59Over the next few days, thousands of Pooka dolls were returned to the stores after malfunctioning.
07:04As a result, Wilson ends up losing his job and Finn turns up to collect the costume, but
07:09the actor can't bear the thought of being away from it.
07:11Bewildered, he decides to go to the house that Melanie is selling, but soon realizes that
07:16the woman isn't there and starts hallucinating.
07:18After seeing a bizarre scene involving the doll, Wilson returns home and goes to talk to Red
07:23in search of some advice, as he is no longer able to distinguish his imagination from reality.
07:28However, when the door opens, the actor realizes that the woman is injured and is thrown out
07:33of her apartment, determined to get his costume back.
07:36Wilson breaks into the store where he used to work with a hammer in hand and dresses up
07:39as Pooka before running out into the street.
07:42When he gets home, he calls Melanie to apologize for the fight and asks for another chance to
07:46rebuild their relationship.
07:47However, instead of telling her directly, Wilson decides to use a Pooka doll to make the recording
07:53and leaves the toy in a box on the woman's doorstep.
07:56Startled by the surprise, Melanie looks out of the window to find out who left the box
08:00on her doorstep and sees Pooka standing across the street.
08:03Just then, Wilson gets into a scuffle with a man who was passing by on the street and ends
08:08up getting beaten up.
08:09When Pooka's mask falls off, Melanie discovers that her ex-boyfriend is the creepy doll that
08:14attacked the boy during the party and is extremely disappointed.
08:17Not knowing what to say for himself, Wilson decides to just leave with half his costume
08:21because a boy has stolen Pooka's head.
08:24On his way, he passes the store where he used to work and sees many dolls lying on the floor,
08:29discarded by dissatisfied customers.
08:32At this point, he decides to go and meet Finn and asks for his help in recovering his head,
08:36which has just been stolen.
08:38Frightened by Wilson's involvement with that character, his friend tries to convince him
08:42that Pooka doesn't exist, but the actor decides to ignore him.
08:45When he gets home, he sees a group of policemen around a body and discovers that Red was attacked
08:50that night.
08:51After falling from the fifth floor, the woman perished and the detective comes to the conclusion
08:55that she jumped out of the window of her own free will.
08:58Convinced that his neighbor would never do that, Wilson rushes to her apartment to find
09:02out who pushed her out of the window and ends up being attacked by Pooka, who approaches
09:06him with his demonic gaze.
09:07While stomping on Wilson, the creature takes a photo of Melanie and Tyler and tears it in
09:13half.
09:14Desperate, the actor orders the monster to leave the family alone and is hit by a cascade
09:18of blood.
09:19At that moment, the man regains consciousness and realizes that he was hallucinating once
09:23again.
09:24In an attempt to protect Melanie and Tyler, Wilson decides to go to them and takes an axe
09:29to hit the monster.
09:30Seeing the creature walking absentmindedly among the Christmas trees, Wilson goes after it
09:34and uses the blade to cut it open.
09:36Although seriously wounded, Pooka tries to knock him down, so the man takes some Christmas
09:41decorations and ties them around the monster's neck.
09:44After eliminating the creature, he runs to Melanie's house and discovers that there are
09:48two elderly people living there.
09:50Confused, Wilson tries to call his ex-girlfriend, but is told that her number no longer exists.
09:55In an attempt to find her, Wilson runs to the house where they met and discovers that
09:59he and Melanie are actually married.
10:01After a fight, the man goes out with his family to buy a new Christmas tree and ends up causing
10:06an accident.
10:07When he wakes up, Wilson realizes that his car has had a head-on collision with Red's
10:11vehicle and everyone involved in the accident, except him, has lost their lives.
10:15While he is overwhelmed by guilt and despair, the man notices the arrival of a car and is
10:20rescued by Finn and another policeman who has been sent to help the victims.
10:24Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Ellie is at home with all the dolls she has collected
10:28from the street and is trying to restore them, as she is also obsessed with Pooka.
10:33Noticing his wife's obsession, Tom gets angry and starts destroying the toys she has brought
10:37home.
10:38While Tom is distracted trying to get the dolls to stop reproducing what he says, Ellie puts
10:43on her mask and embodies the spirit of Pooka, striking her husband several times with a
10:47pair of scissors.
10:49After knocking him out, the woman spreads fuel all over the house and sets fire to everything
10:53and stays inside.
10:55A year later, Derek, a writer who is suffering a major career crisis, travels to the countryside
11:00and stays at the house of Matt and Molly, his longtime friends.
11:03As he enters, he meets Becky, Lauren's nanny, who is wearing a mask identical to Ellie's.
11:09The little girl is one of the few children who still considers Pooka her favorite toy and
11:13also has an imaginary friend called Jenny.
11:15After saying goodbye to their daughter, the couple take Derek to the bar where they used
11:19to go when they were younger and the writer is very surprised when Benny shows up to join
11:24them.
11:24The policeman, who also went to high school with Derek, asks him how his writing career
11:28is going and finds out that he's writing a story about Pooka.
11:31As he's off work, the policeman invites his friends to go out the next day and the group
11:36arranges to meet at Molly's house.
11:38When they get home, Molly and Matt discover that their daughter hasn't been able to sleep
11:42because of nightmares and decide to put her to bed.
11:44While the couple try to get Lauren to sleep, Derek goes to the guest room and takes out his
11:49cell phone to read the attack messages left by people who hate his book.
11:52The next morning, Derek drives to his new job, where he works as a copywriter, and is
11:57startled when he enters the elevator.
11:59As he's distracted by his cell phone, he doesn't see Andy, the social media manager, dressed
12:04as Pooka and mistakes him for a stalker.
12:07The young man tells him that he was taking some photos for the company's social networks
12:11and Derek realizes that he has recognized him.
12:14Hours later, on his way home, the writer discovers that his car has been vandalized and receives
12:19a message from an unknown number with a photo of the graffiti.
12:22At this point, he realizes that his location has already been discovered and returns home
12:26totally frustrated, as he can't wait for the chase to end.
12:29When he gets there, Derek discovers that Molly has gathered together her friends from their
12:34school days to throw a welcome home party and decides to share what's going on.
12:38According to the writer, the content of one of his books has angered a group of influencers,
12:42in particular a guy called Jax, who has set out to ruin his life.
12:46With the support of his base of followers, Jax spread a lot of negative criticism about
12:50Derek's work on the internet and, as a result, sales of his books fell dramatically.
12:55During the conversation, the group talks about the incident that happened the previous year
12:59involving Ellie, a former classmate.
13:01The policeman tells them that she was wearing a Pooka mask when she lost her life and the
13:05doctors were unable to remove it because it melted and got stuck on her face.
13:09While Benny is telling this frightening story, someone knocks on the door and Derek gets up to answer
13:14it, only to discover that his pursuers have discovered the house where he is staying.
13:18In an attempt to fight back against the attacks he has suffered, the writer reacts by spreading
13:23a ritual on the internet to invoke Pooka, during which people will have to eat ashes.
13:27His aim is to play tricks on the people who have contributed to the destruction of his career.
13:32So Derek details the ritual in the most sinister way his mind can imagine.
13:36As planned, his ritual reaches Jax's ears and his followers begin to challenge him to fulfill
13:41each of the steps in a live broadcast.
13:43After the repercussions of his video, the young man makes a new stream to thank his followers
13:47for their engagement and hears someone knocking on his bedroom door.
13:51When he opens the closet, Jax sees nothing but a doll, so he closes the door.
13:55However, when he hears the knock for the third time, he opens the door angrily and is confronted
14:00by a giant Pooka, who hits him on the head with a pair of scissors.
14:04After being hit on the head, Jax tries to climb the steps to call for help and ends up recording
14:09the entire attack, which is broadcast live to his followers.
14:12In the comments, some people start to worry about the influencer, but most are convinced
14:17that it was just a prank.
14:18The next day, after work, Derek invites Susan, his ex-girlfriend from high school, to dinner,
14:24but they end up arguing and the woman decides to go home alone.
14:27When she turns on the lights of her car, Susan spots Pooka with a pair of scissors in his hand
14:32and is startled.
14:33Suddenly, the creature appears on the roof of the car and the woman has to accelerate to
14:37get rid of the monster. As soon as she breaks the car, Derek appears at the window and Susan
14:42gets out to explain what has happened, then realizes that someone has left a note on the
14:46side of the vehicle. Frightened, the woman accompanies Derek to Molly's house to report
14:50what happened and Benny writes down all the features of the suit to investigate the identity
14:54of the criminal. At this point, Susan begins to suspect that someone has discovered that they
14:59were the ones who made the post about the ritual and has decided to pursue them, but Derek
15:03says that this is impossible, as he published his text on an anonymous forum.
15:08The next day, after delivering new work orders to Derek, Andy enters the elevator and is suddenly
15:13attacked by a monster that approaches him from behind. That night, after seeing several reports
15:18of people being attacked by Pooka after fulfilling the challenge, Derek decides to confirm for himself
15:23that the ritual isn't real. After eating the ashes, the man puts on the mask and does the
15:28little dance he described, but absolutely nothing happens. Relieved, Derek continues his work without
15:33realizing that the eyes of all the dolls scattered around the office have turned red. Suddenly,
15:38the writer comes across a man wearing a Pooka costume and is startled to see the monster walking
15:43towards him. However, to his surprise, the creature's eyes turn blue and it walks away. However, just as
15:49Derek begins to believe that he has got rid of Pooka, the monster appears again and tries to strike
15:54him with its claws. Frightened, the writer hides behind the cabins and begins to plot an escape
15:59route. Everywhere he goes, he spots Pooka approaching, but he manages to escape unharmed and goes to meet
16:05his friends to tell them what has just happened. However, he can't convince Matt and Susan that he's
16:10being chased by an entity, even after saying that he did the ritual to summon Pooka. The only one who
16:15believes this story is Molly and she remembers that she warned her friends not to play with spirits the
16:20night Derek published the ritual on the internet. While Lauren's parents are at the bar,
16:24Becky is at home with the girl and, after putting her to bed, she goes downstairs to get to the
16:29kitchen. Just then, she hears a noise like an invasion and suddenly Pooka appears. Frightened,
16:35the young girl starts screaming and tries to run away, but the monster drags her into the laundry
16:39room and destroys Becky's body with its claws. A few minutes after the attack, Molly and Matt arrive
16:45home and, after checking that their daughter is asleep in her room, they are furious because they
16:49believe Becky has gone, leaving Lauren alone. When Benny shows up, Derek says he's been stalked
16:55and reveals that he believes Ellie's spirit has possessed Pooka's body and has returned to
16:59terrorize them. According to Molly, if the creature they are dealing with really is a ghost of the
17:04woman, the only way to get rid of it is to purify the place where Ellie was eliminated. However,
17:09Benny is convinced that the person carrying out the attacks is a criminal wearing a costume and says
17:14he will go after him. In an attempt to help with the investigation, Derek and Susan accompany the
17:19policemen and the trio break into Ellie's old house, as Benny believes that the person in the
17:23costume may be hiding there. When they enter the house, they come across several dolls clustered
17:28together and, among them, they find Andy's body. Meanwhile, Matt and Molly are at home watching TV
17:34and, in the middle of the night, Lauren shows up saying that someone is in her room. According to
17:39the girl, her nanny performed the ritual and posted it on the internet. Since then, she has disappeared
17:44and Lauren is convinced that she has been attacked by Pooka. Convinced that everything is
17:48just a figment of the girl's mind, Matt enters the room to confirm that there is no intruder and
17:53suddenly Lauren's lamp switches itself on. At that moment, he realizes that the light emitted
17:58projects the image of Pooka and, when the carousel stops spinning, the monster comes to life.
18:04During the investigation, when Benny picks up his radio to report the crime, the entity appears and
18:09knocks him down before he has a chance to grab his gun. Even though he's wounded, Benny gets up and
18:14jumps on the enemy, only to be knocked down once again. Seeing their friend about to be eliminated,
18:20Derek and Susan team up to knock Pooka into a hole and take Benny to the hospital.
18:24Seeing the monster walking towards him, Matt gets scared and, hearing her husband's screams,
18:30Molly immediately goes to help him with her baseball bat in hand. Soon after receiving the first blow,
18:35the creature destroys the bat with its claws and Matt has the chance to escape with his wife.
18:39After catching Lauren, the couple hide in the laundry room and find Becky's body.
18:44When Pooka tries to open the door, Molly hits the monster's head with a knife and the creature
18:49turns back into a harmless doll. When she gets a call from Derek, Molly finds out that Benny is in
18:54hospital and goes back to the bar to find her friends. In an attempt to defeat Pooka, the writer
18:59publishes on the internet a step-by-step guide on how to eliminate him and, during the text,
19:04claims that all he has to do is burn the doll and the monster will disappear forever.
19:08After the publication gains thousands of views, Molly and Matt decide to test whether Derek's plan
19:14has worked. But just as they are about to set fire to the doll, they are attacked again.
19:18Seeing her husband being knocked down, Molly strikes the monster and helps Matt escape,
19:23as he has been seriously injured. However, it isn't long before Pooka manages to find them and,
19:28just as the couple are about to be attacked with all their fury, Derek appears. The writer reveals
19:33that people on the internet have altered his story and now, in order to eliminate the monster,
19:37you have to hit it with a knife. The problem is that in order to destroy Pooka's spirit and stop
19:42all the attacks, you need to find the doll that brought the monster to life. While Matt and Molly
19:47are trying to find the right toy, Derek distracts the creature and is knocked down. When she sees her
19:52boyfriend being attacked by the beast, Susan decides to intervene and strikes the creature,
19:57but ends up becoming its new target. Just as the woman is about to be devoured,
20:01Benny appears and shoots the monster. Just then, Molly finds the original doll and Derek uses the
20:07scissors to hit it. When hit, the monster turns to stone and its body breaks apart as it falls to
20:12the ground. After eliminating Pooka, the group believes the war is won, but when they go online
20:17they see that several other dolls are coming to life around the world. Suddenly, all the toyboxes
20:22start to move and the team prepares for yet another battle, as they realize that the Pooka's domination
20:27has only just begun. So what did you think of this series? Leave it in the comments below.
