Guests would head outside and would approach a house with El Cucuy on the roof with a sack with limbs of children sticking out as lights flashing as as if a storm is raging El Cucuy would attack from the right as Guests enter the house.

Guests enter the living room with an altar with offerings, day of the dead decorations, and two day of the dead skeletons sitting at a table, a projection of El Cucuy could be seen on the wall as El Cucuy attacks guests from a door.

Guests then enter into a child's bedroom where a static figure of a little girl could be seen on her bed holding her doll as next to her on the bed is El Cucuy's sack of body parts as El Cucuy's hands could be seen crawling out from under her bed followed by her scream.
