Squeaky Doom

(THEME SONG PLAYING)
(LAUGHS)
MINA: A long time ago,
in the days of the Vikings,
there lived a merciless,
friendless Viking named
Friendless Sven
the Destroyer.
If you had gold, he took it.
If your beard was longer
than his
-He took it.
-(GROANS)
If you had a puppy
-(WHIMPERS)
-He took it.
It wasn't hard to see why
he didn't have any friends.
And if you were unfortunate
enough to look into his eyes,
you'd see the hatred
actually burning in his soul.
Hang on. I thought this was
supposed to be a ghost story?
It is Well, not yet.
But trust me,
it gets really creepy.
(GIGGLING)
MINA: Sven eventually sailed
to the American South
searching for gold aplenty.
There he met his end
in the swamps of Louisiana,
where even
the meanest Viking
is no match
for an alligator's
digestive system.
Many years later,
on the very spot
where Sven met his end,
the Fancy French doll factory
was built.
Sven's angry spirit
lived on
Evil found a way.
(YELLING)
How did they finally stop him?
A mysterious figure
trapped him
by using an enchanted
Transylvanian amulet.
When it was
hung around his neck,
he was instantly frozen,
his evil imprisoned
in the porcelain doll forever.
Na-na-na-na-na-na.
(GIGGLING)
No way.
Transylvanian amulet?
(TALKING GIBBERISH)
Sven swore an oath that night,
that he would have his revenge
on the one who trapped him
inside the doll.
Uh-oh.
You should never
joke about possessed dolls.
Yeah, you're just making
that up.
No, it's totally true.
My aunt told me this story
when I was little.
BECKY: What makes you think
she didn't make it up?
Because, she gave me
This!
(CAT SCREECHING)
(LAUGHING)
-You guys were so scared,
you were like
-No, we weren't.
"Oh, I'm so scared."
(ALL LAUGHING)
(ALL SIGH)
-(GRUNTS)
-Whoa!
Hey, Chester. Check it out.
(TOY SQUEAKING)
Oh, yeah.
Hey, that's That's great.
(CHUCKLES) Right?
(TOY SQUEAKING)
Why is your tail all fluffy
like that?
Is Mina telling ghost
stories again?
Actually, it's a scary
Viking story.
You know what will
take your mind off it?
What? Oh, no.
No, no, no, no, no.
I don't wanna play.
I don't wanna play.
Chester, what's
wrong with you?
(CHAIR RATTLING)
MINA: (SIGHS) Okay, you two.
If you wanted to go outside,
all you had to do is ask.
I just wanted to play.
Wow, look at all the stars.
HAROLD: They're beautiful.
(PURRING)
Pretty, pretty.
We should come out here
more often, you know?
Yeah, you just do what
you gotta do
and let's go back inside.
I don't have to do anything,
I thought you did.
I never go out here,
you know that!
I got a little box inside.
How do you get away with that?
I mean, the last time
I went in there,
everybody freaked out.
I dunno, man.
(STOMACH GROWLING)
Hungry, hungry, hungry.
(SQUEAKS)
(SQUEAKING)
No way.
HAROLD: 2015, six dozen-one.
Ready or not, here I
You're not doing it right.
I count, you hide.
-I don't wanna play games.
-Oh.
Well, how about the one
where you pass $200
and collect go?
Harold, it's the middle
of the night,
and it's creepy out here.
Lacrosse?
(SLURPING)
(LAUGHS)
(SQUEAKS)
(CLANG)
At least you'll play with me.
-(SQUEAKING)
-Oh, good one.
Yeah, look at you go.
There you are. Isn't this fun?
-HAROLD: What? Stop?
-(SQUEAKING)
Aw! No one wants to play.
I asked Chester, he said no.
I asked Mina, she said no.
I asked Mina's dad,
he said no.
HAROLD: But you wanna play,
don't you?
You look like you got a lot
of really fun games
that just the two of us
can play, huh?
You know, together?
How about that game
with the tall guys and hoops,
you know?
Lacrosse?
(SQUEAKING)
Okay, then, what do you
wanna play?
Oh, charades?
Brilliant, go ahead.
You want
-You want to
-(SQUEAKING)
You want to play
-You want to play
with someone.
-(SQUEAKS)
Yeah, I know.
(WHISPERS)
I'm really good at this.
Uh, who do you wanna
play with?
One word
You want to play with
A hamburger!
You want to watch
a space movie.
-You broke the internet?
-(SQUEAKS)
Oh, oh Bun
Okay Neck.
Bun Neck, something.
Me? Okay, not me You?
Bun-neck-you-something?
You wanna play with
bunneckyousomething!
Neck-you
Bun-neck-you
-(GASPS) Law.
-(SQUEAKS)
You want to play with
Bunneckcyoulaw Bunnicula.
Yeah, that's a great idea.
I'll go get him. What?
Oh, you wanna
get the place ready
before I go get him.
-Oh, I love surprise games.
-(SQUEAKS)
BECKY: Oh, no. Look, Mina,
your doll is broken.
MARSHA: And the Transylvanian
amulet is gone.
MINA: Ooh, I wonder if
Friendless Sven's ghost
is drifting through
the house right now.
MARSHA: Cut it out, Mina.
Oh, this is nuts.
Yeah, go ahead and laugh.
What they don't know is
Sven the Destroyer's ghost
really is in the house.
-Hey, Chester.
-Hey, buddy.
Waiting for his chance to jump
out and tear the living
CHESTER: Oh, my gosh!
Friendless Sven
the Destroyer.
-How is that, Sven?
-(SQUEAKS)
(CHESTER WHIMPERING)
Hi, Chester. Whatcha doin'?
Could I talk to you
for a second?
Sure. I'll be
right back, Sven.
-What are you doing?
-Playing a game
with my friend.
He is not your friend!
Clearly, the evil soul of
Friendless Sven the Viking
has possessed your
squeaky chicken toy,
so he can exact his revenge
on the one who
imprisoned his soul in
a creepy porcelain doll
with that magic
Transylvanian amulet!
That's crazy talk, Chestie.
Look at the evil fire
in his eyes.
That's what evil
looks like, pal.
That's a trap for someone.
(GASPS) Bunnicula.
It's not a trap, it's a game.
Okay All right,
different approach.
Different approach.
Look, Harold.
This new friend of yours,
what did he say his name was?
-Sven the Destroyer.
-Okay.
Let's just focus
on the last name.
The "Destroyer" part.
Does someone who calls himself
the Destroyer
really sound like
the name of a guy
with whom you should be
building a trap?
-He's my friend.
-Oh, forget it.
I've gotta find that amulet
and warn Bunnicula.
-HAROLD: Sven?
-(SQUEAKS)
I just wanna tell you
that I'm having a great time
playing with you.
You're a really good friend.
And I figure with a last name
like the Destroyer,
you probably don't have
a lot of friends.
But I promise,
no matter how busy I am,
I'll always be nice to you.
Because you're my friend.
And that's what friends do.
Anyways,
I'll go get Bunnicula.
Okay, Sven doesn't suspect me.
So, maybe while I distract
the chicken,
you come up from behind
with this.
(TALKING GIBBERISH)
Wait, you can't just go up
there by yourself and
-And what?
-Harold!
-Tell him it's a trap.
-It's not a trap, it's a game.
Don't go, Bunnicula,
don't do it.
Oh, look. Isn't that nice?
(EXCLAIMING)
Who needs to play games when
there's Viking floor cake?
(ROARING)
(SQUEAKING)
(TALKING GIBBERISH)
-(SQUEAKS)
-Huh?
(SQUEAKING)
(TALKING GIBBERISH)
Oh, no, Chester!
Oh, well, do not pass $200,
do not collect go.
(ALL LAUGHING)
