Spirited away

Chihiro, being unexperienced of such places, insists her parents to turn back and leave the building. 

Eventually, they come across what seems to be an abandoned marketplace and her parents start to feed themselves. Chihiro, being uneasy and skeptical about the new place, decides to take a stroll and ends up meeting Haku. He warns her to immediately evacuate the place, now realizing the danger, Chihiro embarks to inform her parents the same, only to discover that her parents have been captured and taken somewhere.
