Eventually, the factory closed, sending Brantford into economic decline. Alan, Judy, and Peter go to the now-abandoned shoe factory where a homeless man tells Alan that Sam abandoned the business to search for his son after his disappearance, until his 1991 death. As Alan makes his way out, he meets Carl, who is now working as a police officer. Peter next rolls a five which releases a lion and a grown up Alan. The game rules state that everything will be restored when the game ends, so they continue playing. Their rolls summon giant mosquitoes and swarms of monkeys. Discovering Jumanji in the attic, Judy and Peter begin playing it. Twenty-six years later, in 1995, Judy and Peter Shepherd move into the now-vacant Parrish mansion with their aunt, Nora, after their parents died in an accident on a ski trip in Canada the winter before. Afterwards, a swarm of bats appears and chases Sarah out of the mansion. Alan then inadvertently rolls the dice after being startled by the chiming clock a message tells him to wait in a jungle until someone rolls a five or eight, and he is sucked into the game. Sarah reads the first message on the board and hears an eerie sound. With each roll of the dice, the game piece moves by itself and a cryptic message describing the roll's outcome appears in the crystal ball at the center of the board. Alan shows her Jumanji and invites her to play. That night, after an argument with his father about attending a boarding school, Alan plans to run away, but his friend, Sarah Whittle, returns his bicycle. He finds a board game called Jumanji, which was buried 100 years earlier, and brings it home. After the bullies attack Alan and steal his bicycle, Alan follows the sound of tribal drumbeats to a construction site. Alan misplaces the shoe and damages a machine, but Carl takes responsibility and loses his job. He meets his friend, Carl Bentley, who reveals a new shoe prototype he made by himself. One day, he escapes a group of bullies and retreats to Sam's shoe company. In 1969, Alan Parrish lives with his parents Sam and Carol-Anne in Brantford, New Hampshire. The film spawned an animated television series, which aired from 1996 to 1999, and was followed by a related film, Zathura: A Space Adventure (2005), and two direct sequels, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) and Jumanji: The Next Level (2019), with Columbia Pictures taking over distribution for all subsequent films. It was the 10th highest-grossing film of 1995. The film was released on December 15, 1995, to mixed reviews, but was a box office success, grossing $263 million worldwide on a budget of approximately $65 million. After tracking down Sarah, the quartet resolves to finish the game in order to reverse all of the destruction it has caused. Twenty-six years later, siblings Judy and Peter Shepherd find the game, begin playing and then unwittingly release the now-adult Alan. As a boy in 1969, Alan Parrish became trapped inside the game itself while playing with his friend, Sarah Whittle. The story centers on a supernatural board game that releases jungle-based hazards upon its players with every turn they take. It stars Robin Williams, Kirsten Dunst, David Alan Grier, Bonnie Hunt, Jonathan Hyde, and Bebe Neuwirth. Loosely based on Chris Van Allsburg's picture book of the same name, the film is the first installment of the Jumanji franchise.

Jumanji is a 1995 American fantasy adventure film directed by Joe Johnston from a screenplay by Jonathan Hensleigh, Greg Taylor, and Jim Strain.
