史瑞克惊悚夜

Shrek、Fiona、Donkey和Puss在万圣节的晚上到电影院观看《音乐之声》，引起了Shrek的极度不满。为了让Shrek找回万圣节的感觉，Donkey即兴唱了一段，却引来一群恐怖的僵尸……

Shrek: (rushes out of the cinema) For the love of gingy! Make it stop! I cant get it out of my head!

(Donkey and Puss are singing.)

Fiona: Honey, are you okay? Ive never heard you scream like that before.

Donkey: Yeah, whats the matter with you, man? What kind of person screams when they see singing nuns?

Shrek: ①Its Halloween for petes sake. Thats not the kinda thing I want to see tonight.

史瑞克：（冲出电影院）天啊！停下来啊，我满脑子都是！

（贫嘴驴和靴子猫在唱歌。）

菲奥娜：亲爱的，你没事吧？我从来没听你叫得这么惨过。

贫嘴驴：是啊，伙计，你怎么了？怎么会有人因为看到修女唱歌而惨叫？

史瑞克：今天可是万圣节。我才不想看到那种东西。

Shrek: Hahaha, now this is Halloween.

Donkey: ④Oh, man, man, my big mouth. I knew I shouldve stayed home tonight.

贫嘴驴：好吧，万圣节之王，你想看什么？

史瑞克：我不知道，木乃伊怎么样？或者食人树，起码要有一、两个僵尸。

贫嘴驴：僵尸才不会跟你磨磨唧唧地唱歌。

史瑞克：问题就在这啊。

靴子猫：为什么不把两者结合在一起？恐怖音乐剧怎么样？

贫嘴驴：就是，我都知道可以让谁去演。

史瑞克：你们现在又要干嘛？

贫嘴驴：（唱歌）午夜过后，街上出现一群怪人。

史瑞克：我去叫出租车。

贫嘴驴：哈哈，我找着调了。（唱歌）真是恐怖，小心脏都要被吓得停止跳动。

史瑞克：我讨厌你唱歌。

贫嘴驴：（唱歌）你紧闭双眼，祈祷着这恐怖的气息只是一场幻觉。

史瑞克：（对菲奥娜说）你能让他停下来吗？

贫嘴驴：（唱歌）活生生的恐怖。你屏住呼吸等待一切过去。

史瑞克：别犯傻。

靴子猫：遵命，老大。

菲奥娜：史瑞克。

贫嘴驴：你觉得这个不错，你真该听听我唱提托的歌。

史瑞克：说过了，我不喜欢即兴音乐。

靴子猫：黑暗降临，午夜的钟声就要敲响。动物爬行着渴求鲜血，恐吓你的邻居。无论被发现的是谁，纵然惊魂未定，也要直面来自地狱的追杀，在尸体的皮囊下腐烂。即使你为生存而战，却止不住抖如筛糠，因为肉体凡胎永远无法对抗来自无间的鬼怪。

史瑞克：哈哈，这下才像万圣节嘛。

贫嘴驴：噢，天啊，都怪我的乌鸦嘴。我就说今天应该待在家里。
