1
I'm so excited to go to 100's party.
2
It's gonna be awesome!
3
100's parties are always the best.
4
Well, let's hurry and get there.
5
Help!
6
Help!
7
Did you guys hear that?
8
Somebody help me get out of here!
9
That.. that wasn't the wind, right?
10
It sounds like it came from over there.
11
We should follow it.
12
Wait, we don't even know what it is.
13
What if there are monsters in there?
14
We'll be fine.
15
Probably.
16
Help!
17
Help!
18
Well, we have to go and help.
19
Someone might be in trouble.
20
Five's right!
21
Let's go!
22
Please, help!
23
I can't move!
24
There, under the rocks!
25
Help me out of here!
26
I'm trapped!
27
Oh no!
28
We have to help him!
29
Help him?
30
He's a ghost!
31
But I'm friendly!
32
I won't hurt you!
33
I don't know if we should trust him, guys.
34
Ghost or not, he's stuck.
35
Imagine if you were stuck in there.
36
That wouldn't feel nice!
37
Exactly.
38
We have to get him out no matter what.
39
That's the spirit!
40
These rocks are way too heavy to lift.
41
Not if we find something big enough to move them.
42
Hmm.
43
Oh!
44
There might be something inside that abandoned factory that can help!
45
That sounds like a good idea.
46
It's worth a shot!
47
Come on, Three, you're with me.
48
The rest of you stay here and see if you can find another way to get him out.
49
Got it!
50
I think this might be our way in.
51
Let's go.
52
Wow, it's really dark in here.
53
This place is giving me the spooks.
54
Huh?
55
What's that?
56
It's a monster!
57
Quick!
58
Run!
59
Three!
60
No!
61
Ah!
62
Let me go!
63
I don't want to be eaten!
64
Calm down!
65
We don't even know if it's a monster yet!
66
You're not going to get eaten!
67
Ah!
68
Let me go!
69
See?
70
Look!
71
There's a light switch!
72
Oh, so it's not a monster, I guess.
73
What did I tell you?
74
But what is it?
75
It's still scary.
76
It's a hydraulic mech.
77
It's used to move heavy pieces.
78
Can you get it running?
79
Hmm, maybe.
80
Depends if it's still connected to the park's power grid.
81
We'll have to get inside and check.
82
Yes, there's still a battery I can use to start it up.
83
Then let's go!
84
I can't find anything.
85
I wonder where 3 and 5 are.
86
Yeah, they've been gone for a while.
87
Hey, whoa, what's going on?
88
The ground's shaking!
89
Look!
90
What's that?
91
Is that a robot?
92
I can't believe what I'm seeing.
93
Whoa!
94
You're driving a robot?
95
That's the coolest thing ever.
96
Can I have a go?
97
Hey, I saw it first,
98
which means it's my turn.
99
But I asked first, which means it's my turn.
100
Cut it out, guys.
101
We're here to save the ghost, remember?
102
Oh, yeah.
103
Alright, time to move some boulders.
104
Yay, it's working!
105
You-you freed me, after all this time!
106
We couldn't just leave you trapped there.
107
What happened?
108
It was that witch!
109
She trapped me in there!
110
She wants my power, and she's going to drain it,
111
to make herself stronger!
112
She could be back any minute.
113
We should get out of here before it's too late.
114
He's right.
115
Let's skedaddle.
116
Bye.
117
And thank you.
118
What is that?
119
What was what?
120
That!
121
That's a lot of pumpkins.
122
This is a full-blown party.
123
Welcome, travelers, to the pumpkin party.
124
We've been waiting for you.
125
Waiting for us?
126
Yeah, dance with us!
127
I can't remember the last time I had this much fun dancing,
128
but I think it's time we head out now.
129
All right, friends.
130
Bye-bye.
131
Bye.
132
Time to get back on our journey.
133
But how do we do that?
134
All the pumpkins are in the way.
135
Let me try.
136
Uh, ow!
137
I can't get through!
138
How are we going to get past now?
139
I have an idea!
140
Come on, guys!
141
Jump!
142
Whoa!
143
Yay!
144
Yay!
145
Yes, we made it!
146
Good thinking, too!
147
Let's get back on track.
148
Uh-oh!
149
The path splits in two!
150
That can't be good.
151
And we don't know which way leads to 100's place.
152
So which way do we go?
153
Do you just pick any path?
154
I don't know.
155
We could get lost and not be able to find our way back.
156
Hey guys, I found something!
157
Oh!
158
What is it?
159
I don't know.
160
But maybe we're supposed to use it.
161
Like how?
162
Maybe by jumping on it.
163
Good idea!
164
Let me try.
165
Whoa!
166
This thing is bouncy!
167
Well, I wasn't expecting that.
168
It's changing color!
169
Whoa!
170
Whoa, what was that?
171
It came out of whatever that thing is.
172
Yeah, and I didn't do anything.
173
I was just jumping on it.
174
Well, that jumping seemed to have activated it.
175
Do you think it does that for everyone?
176
Maybe.
177
We should try it again.
178
All right, let me see.
179
It worked.
180
So we got them all, but now what?
181
We still need to know which way is correct.
182
And how are these going to help us do that?
183
I think they want us to add them up.
184
That's why those plus signs appeared.
185
Yeah, but what would solving this equation do anyway?
186
I don't know, but let's try it.
187
So it's one plus two plus three plus four plus five, equals what?
188
I don't know.
189
How are we gonna figure it out?
190
Maybe by guessing.
191
Is the answer 10?
192
What about 13?
193
Wait, three stop.
194
I know what we can do.
195
Add up ourselves.
196
We are one to five.
197
Oh yeah, that's genius.
198
Then we'll know the answer.
199
One plus two plus three plus four plus five equals 15.
200
That's the answer.
201
It worked!
202
Let's try it!
203
The answer is 15.
204
Yes!
205
1 plus 2 plus 3 plus 4 plus 5 equals 15.
206
Perfect!
207
The arrow is showing us which way to go.
208
So doing the equation helped us after all.
209
Yeah!
210
Let's go!
211
We're here!
212
Finally!
213
We made it after all this time!
214
Yeah!
215
And 100 even decorated his house!
216
It looks amazing!
217
Hi, guys!
218
Welcome to my haunted Halloween party!
219
There's a bunch of fun stuff to do inside!
220
Games, treats, spooky surprises, you name it!
221
The place looks great, if I do say so myself!
222
Sounds awesome!
223
You really went all out!
224
What can I say?
225
Who doesn't like a good Halloween party?
226
I know, right?
227
Halloween's the coolest.
228
You said it!
229
Yeah, yeah, but can we head inside already?
230
I can't wait to eat the candy!
231
Sure!
232
Everyone in there is ready to party!
233
So let's go!

Practice Tips

To maximize your learning experience with this transcript, consider using a shadowing site or a shadowing app to practice alongside the video. Pay attention to the speed and tone of the characters as they engage in a mix of excitement and urgency. Start by playing the video at a slower speed; this will help you grasp the pronunciation and intonation accurately. As you become more comfortable, gradually increase the playback speed to match the original tone.

Shadow speak by repeating after each character in the video, mimicking their rhythm and emotion as closely as possible. This will not only boost your pronunciation but also enhance your overall listening comprehension. Try to capture the excitement of the moment when they say “Help! Help!” and the urgency in phrases like “We should follow it.” Practicing these emotional cues will help you in real-life conversations.

Remember, consistency is key. Allocate a few minutes each day to enjoy this creative approach to english speaking practice, and soon you will notice a significant improvement in your conversational skills!

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
