Lucy!

So far, no trace of her.
70
I tried to put myself in her shoes, but I don't think she's wearing any.
71
Lucy?
72
Lucy!
73
Typically when she sleepwalks, she doesn't go very far.
74
but I've already biked past school and Lucy's house.
75
No luck.
76
Lucy!
77
I'm heading to the graveyard next so I can get a good view of the entire town.

Reporter's Recorder, entry number 562, part 2.
80
Mina's Musings.
81
I made it back to the graveyard, but it's nearly impossible to see anything because a thick fog has taken over Whitby.
82
I've never seen anything like it, but to be fair, I'm never usually awake at this hour.
83
Back to the task at hand.
84
Where is Lucy West?
85
I'm standing on our favorite bench, trying to see if I can spot her.
86
So far, I only see fog.
87
And more fog.
88
Lucy!
89
She's on the beach!

101
It's so foggy.
102
You were sleepwalking again.
103
Ugh.
104
My mom's not gonna be happy.
105
She'll understand.
106
It's the fourth time this month.
107
How do I get all the way to the shore?
108
Usually we find you in the kitchen or in the dog bed.
109
It's getting worse.
110
It'll be okay.
111
How do you know?
112
Did you sleepwalk like this too?
113
You mean, after my parents died?
114
Yeah.
115
No, but that was mostly because I couldn't sleep at all.
116
It doesn't get any easier, does it?
117
Losing your dad is still fresh loose.
118
It's not that it gets easier, but it changes.
119
How?
120
I mean, I lost my parents on Halloween.
121
And at first, I thought that would ruin it.
122
But in some ways, Halloween is even more special now.
123
Remembering and celebrating them on a holiday that we loved as a family.
124
One that honors and respects death.
125
Mina, it's hard.
126
But I try to remember that they're never really gone.
127
Mina, do you hear those whispers?
128
I think they're coming from the ocean.
129
I'm trying to be sincere here.
130
We always carried them with us.
131
Mina, it's getting louder.
132
Look out!
133
Ah!
134
Tell me that's not an old -timey ship that almost ran us over
135
It's not an old -timey ship that almost ran us over Actually, it is And it's definitely haunted

Chapter One The Night Before Halloween The...
139
Demeter?
140
Do you think anyone is on board the ship?
141
Uh, that's not a ship, Mina.
142
That's a shipwreck.
143
We need to check it out.
144
I just woke up on the beach, Mina.
145
I'm not trying to get on a haunted ship.
146
You love haunted stuff.
147
And you're always telling me gnarly injury stories.
148
I also love REM sleep.
149
You'll sleep when you're dead.
150
Hey, there's a ladder next to the plank.
151
Help me reach it.
152
You're taller.
153
Fine.
154
One, two, three.
155
Got it.
156
I made it.
157
Here, I'll drop the ladder down for you.
158
No thanks.
159
I'm good.
160
What happened to your sense of adventure, Luz?
161
It's back at your house.
162
Warm in bed.
163
Waiting for me to return.
164
Oh, come on!
165
Nina, when are you going to give this up?
166
How's never a clock?
167
You owe me.
168
Here, grab my hand.
169
Wow, it's like a pirate ship.
170
Where are the pirates?
171
No captain.
172
No crew?
173
Where did it come from?

176
Mina's Musings.
177
Hey, Luce, do you have your night photography camera?
178
Gee, didn't think to bring it with me while I was sleepwalking.
179
Okay, okay.
180
Lucy and I just witnessed a ghostly shipwreck of epic proportions on the Whitby shoreline.
181
It's no Titanic, but still pretty big.
182
We're walking along the ship's top deck to check for survivors.
183
But there isn't a soul in sight.
184
Hey, maybe these stairs lead below deck.
185
I guarantee there's some creepiness down there.
186
That's the spirit
187
Reporters update the stairs led us to the hull of the ship which is hardly intact and is also boring and empty.
188
Let's go What happened?
189
I tripped over a.. a velvet bag?
190
Huh.
191
That's a full -blown satchel right there.
192
Where is that growl coming from?
193
Um, maybe from the beast with the red glowing eyes?
194
It's.. a giant wolf.
195
Mina, look out!
196
Go, go, go.
197
Whoa.
198
Are you okay?
199
That wolf tried to take off your hand.
200
I'm fine.
201
I think I just wanted this satchel.
202
Go!
203
Shut the door!
204
Let's get out of here!
205
Go!
206
Hurry, come on!
207
We gotta go!
208
Let's go!
209
Go!
210
Go!
211
Go!
212
Go!
213
Go!
214
Go!
215
I think it's gone.
216
Gone where?
217
I don't know.
218
But I don't hear...
219
What's in my hair?
220
What is that?
221
It's a bat.
222
A bat came through the porthole.
223
Get it out!
224
Get it out!
225
Don't panic.
226
There's a bat in my hair.
227
I think I'm allowed to panic a little.
228
Get it out!
229
Okay, okay, it's out.
230
Let's get out of here.
231
Okay, come on, come on.
232
Off the boat, let's go, come on.
233
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Lucy.
234
Good morning.
235
Your zombie costumes turned out wonderfully.
236
Nice work.
237
We aren't wearing our costumes yet, Mr. Harker.
238
Oh.
239
Jonathan, time for school.
240
Your perfectly normally dressed friends are here.
241
Thanks, Dad.
242
Bye, Dad.
243
Okay.
244
What's up with you two?
245
You look paler than usual.
246
I, for one, think we look excellent, considering we dodged two wild animals last night on an ancient haunted ship.
247
Okay.
248
One, ghosts aren't real.
249
And two, a ship hasn't docked in Whitby in decades.
250
It's too rocky and dangerous.
251
I wouldn't say it docked.
252
More like a violent crashing on the beach.
253
Sure, and you met
254
Jack Sparrow and Captain Hook on board.
255
They were just dying to visit Whitby, weren't they?
256
I wish I'd gotten some pictures, because he's not going to believe it until he sees it.
257
So let's show him.
258
No way!
259
We can't be late for school.
260
It'll take two minutes.
261
Prepare to be amazed and horrified.
262
Uh, am I missing something?
263
Mina, where'd the ship go?
264
I, I don't know.
265
It's not here.
266
Do you think it got swept back out to sea?
267
You saw it.
268
It was way too wrecked for that.
269
Okay, weird prank.
270
Let's go.
271
This is not a prank.
272
We are way more skilled pranksters than this.
273
So I guess this alleged ancient ship grew wings and flew off.
274
Yes, that is my exact hypothesis, Jonathan.
275
Lucy, how does a shipwreck just disappear?
276
Jonathan, I know you make questionable fashion choices, but why is there a big ugly hat over there on your desk?
277
There's a human boy under that hat.
278
Who is it?
279
I don't know, but he's in my seat.
280
Uh, hey, I'm Jonathan.
281
Uh, hello?
282
Oh, I think he's asleep.
283
I wish I was asleep.
284
Is he even breathing?
285
Loose, check his pulse.
286
Why me?
287
Your mom's a nurse.
288
Yeah, my mom is.
289
I'm not.
290
Fine, I'll do it.
291
Hello.
292
Hello.
293
Wow, his skin is freezing.
294
Good morning, class.
295
Why is it so dark in here?
296
Time to let the light in.
297
He's alive. And hissing.
298
Hey, easy, dude.
299
Oh, uh, sorry about that.
300
Class, we have a new student with us today.
301
New student?
302
Please give a warm Whitby Middle School welcome to...
303
Oh, didn't anyone tell you Halloween costumes aren't allowed until after school?
304
What costume?
305
Isn't that a farmer costume?
306
The big straw hat?
307
It needs to go, I'm afraid.
308
School policy.
309
You will let me wear my hat at all times and not give me any more grief about it.
310
Uh, because I have a sensitivity to UV light.
311
I will not give you any more grief about wearing your hat, even though it is against school policy.
312
Great.
313
Glad we straightened that out.
314
Hi, everybody.
315
My name is Vladimir.
316
You can call me...
317
Vlad.
318
Vlad?
319
Thank you.
320
Hi, I'm Suri Marrero.
321

And we play Mina and Lucy in Mina and Lucy's Guide to Slaying Dracula.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
