Background

During the events of Tales from the Crypt (1972) played by Robin Phillips
Joanne, Maitland, Elliot, Jason and Rogers are taking a tour of some catacombs along with others. The Guide warns everyone to stay close together and then tells the history of the catacombs during the reign of Henry VIII. He again warns them to stay close so they don't lose their way. Joanne notices her brooch is missing and Maitland helps her find it. They find out that while waiting for Joanne to find her brooch, the rest of the group has left them. Jason suggests one way which leads to a dead end and a door suddenly opens. They go inside the room on the other side of the door and when Rogers suggests they go back, the door suddenly closes. The Crypt Keeper appears and when they start asking him questions, he tells them they will have their answers "all in good time". He has them sit down and asks Joanne why she came to the crypt and her story begins. Joanne starts to tell The Crypt Keeper she had no intention of, but then trails off. The Crypt Keeper then questions Maitland about his plans. The Crypt Keeper accuses Maitland of being in a hurry to leave his wife and children and when Elliot accuses The Crypt Keeper of playing games with them, Elliot's story starts.
Elliot stares in contempt at all of the children gathered at Grimsdyke's home. Elliot starts to complain about Grimsdyke to his Father and belittles Grimsdyke's profession and calls his house an eyesore. Father says that he has offered to buy Grimsdyke's house, but Grimsdyke wants to die in the same house his wife died in. Elliot continues that Grimsdyke's home ruins the neighborhood and depreciates the value of their property. Elliot looks out the window and sees Neighbor working on his prize roses. During the night, Elliot digs up the Neighbor's roses and then returns home and tells Father what he has done. The next morning, Neighbor tells the police it was Grimsdyke's dogs that dug up his roses. The next day, Father has a meeting with Councillor Ramsey and convinces him to fire Grimsdyke even though he is two years from retirement and will lose his retirement pay. Elliot smirks to his Father as he sees Grimsdyke coming home early to his empty house after being fired. Father and Elliot have a meeting with Mrs. Davies, Mrs. Carter and Mrs. Phelps and accuses Grimsdyke of being dirty and possibly a pedophile. Elliot tells Father that they will only need to do one more thing to Grimsdyke and then says he is going to send him Valentine's Day cards from "everyone" in town. Later, Elliot notices Jamie whining and Father mentions he hasn't seen Grimsdyke since Valentine's Day. They go to his house and find Grimsdyke hanging from the ceiling in a closet. The Vicar gives Grimsdyke's eulogy as members of his neighborhood watch, including Elliot, Father and Councillor Ramsey, and nearby the neighborhood children sit with Jamie. As he is writing, Elliot finds the left over Valentine's cards he didn't send Grimsdyke and burns them. As Elliot is writing, the corpse of Grimsdyke walks up to him and strangles him.
Elliot admits to The Crypt Keeper that he doesn't like Grimsdyke. Jason asks what he is doing locked in the crypt and The Crypt Keeper tells his story. Rogers walks up to The Crypt Keeper and demands to know what Jason saw. The Crypt Keeper tells Rogers he should heed his warning and another story begins. The Crypt Keeper tells them they may go and the door they entered opens once more. Jason walks to the door and The Crypt Keeper tells them they are there for not repenting for their despicable sins. Jason then falls into a pit of fire and the others get up and walk to the open door to meet their fate.
