[spooky music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[laughing]
Zombies are not as scary
as I thought they'd be.
I'm proud of ya. You only needed
to change your pants three times.
A new record.
Oh! It's late.
To make it home before dark,
we better take a shortcut
through the creepy cemetery.
[wolf howls]
Nothing scary about that.
Not to a record-breaker like me.
Attaboy, Mugsy.
[sinister music playing]
Hm…
Sure is a lot of tombstones.
Uh-huh.
[thunder rumbles]
Really starting to get dark now.
Some might find that unsettling,
but not me.
Good thing we're so brave.
I can't think of a time
I've been less scared.
-Nothing scary about a graveyard.
-Just a yard.
-For playing.
-We have a yard.
-We should vacation here.
-Live here!
I never wanna leave!
-[thunder cracks]
-[scream]
Well, I know what we're doing tonight.
Things just got a lot more interesting.
Go fish!
[grunts]
Huh?
[gasps]
Did you see that?
It slammed shut outta nowhere!
Okay. Let's get a grip on ourselves.
That was probably the wind.
Wind? What wind?
I didn't feel any wind. No wind.
Oh, no, no, no! It won't budge!
We're trapped!
[thunder cracks]
Relax. It just needs
a little elbow grease.
[strains]
Hm, stuck pretty good.
What are we gonna do?!
First, we're gonna calm down.
But what about g-g-ghosts?
Ah, banana oil! Ghosts ain't real!
[chuckles]
You hear that? We ain't real.
[snickers]
We ain't?
[grunts]
Shh!
Looks like we're stuck. Eh.
Someone will open it in the morning.
Till then, we'll spend the night
and make the best of it.
S-s-spend the night?
But what about the ghosts?
I don't like this, Cuphead.
I'm allergic to dead people.
For the last time, Mugsy.
Ghosts ain't real!
Now you clear a spot,
and I'm gonna get some firewood.
We're separating?
Well, do you wanna come with me
into the deep, dark woods?
[sinister music playing]
Is there a third, less terrifying option?
[sighs] Look, don't worry.
It'll be just like the movie.
You think you're gonna be scared,
but then it won't be so bad.
'Cause why?
'Cause I'm a big, strong man?
Well, sure.
But also because ghosts ain't real.
They better not be.
I'm all outta spare pants.
Just relax.
I'll be back before you know it.
[chattering]
-[owl hoots]
-[yelps]
[Cuphead] That was an owl.
[hooting]
[chuckles nervously]
[gulps]
[Cuphead] Typical Mugman.
Always getting himself
worked up over nothing.
[gasps] What was that?
Ooh!
Who's there?
[giggles]
Whoa!
[grunts]
[groaning]
Huh?
Hello.

Fireflies.
Cuphead was right. Ghosts ain't real.
You know,
it's actually kinda peaceful out here.
Just the sounds
of the wind, the owl, the--
[ghost] Disembodied voice behind you.
Real cute, Cuphead.
[sarcastic] Ha, ha, ha. Hilarious.
I know you're trying to scare me,
but I'm not falling for your--
[grunts]
…tricks.
Not funny, Cuphead.
I thought it was right funny.
But I ain't never heard of no Cuphead.
Top of the evening, love.
Cuphead! Cuphead!
Cuphead!
[both grunt]
[groaning]
I don't wanna alarm you,
but I think I saw a--

[Cuphead] I know it's scary, Mugsy,
but you gotta stop chattering your teeth.
[Mugman] My teeth aren't chattering.

["Funeral March" by Chopin playing]
One minute, we're all having fun.
The next minute, two cups are dead.
Oh, them poor little cups.
Shall we say a few words then?
Huh?
They're gone!
[Mugman] Come on!
[panting]
-We made it.
-Safe at last.
Phew!
[Elder Kettle screams]
Hideous zombies!
