Transcript:
Mom: Would you like a rainbow on your cheek? Alice: OK. Voices: EEEK! EEP! AGhk! The horror! The horror! Mom: Are Dill's brothers running the Haunted House? Alice: I think so, why? Boy: My psyche is scarred!
I kind of want to know how many there are and how old…. all i know right now is that one’s old enough to be a vet… Maybe they are wilder in my imagination and are better left unseen. But i am so curious!

Oribassi, I think RT established at one point that Dill had four older brothers.
The brother who’s a vet would pretty much have to be at least 24, but I imagine the other three are closer to Dill’s age. I think of them as being fiendishly clever teenagers, like the three older boys on “Malcolm in the Middle.”

sometimes it is better for little children not to go to haunted houses without adult supervision, and this must be one of them

Little children are easily spooked so it could’ve something as simple as a chainsaw massacre.
