               [A bustling scene on a dock. A large lake is behind the dock, 
               a stage is off to the left, and the whole place is being dressed 
               for Halloween. Beyond the lake, a lighthouse looks over the scene. 
               At center is a booth for a radio station. The camera moves in]

                         Haunt at the South Park docks! Come 
                         on down! We've got a haunted house  
                         and everyone is decorating for tomorrow 
                         night,  HALLOWEEN, when the band KoRn, 
                         that's right, KoRn, is going to play 
                         live! And don't forget to wear a costume 
                         tomorrow, because there's a big first

                         the Halloween Haunt now!  Say boys,

                         This one time, like eight months ago, 
                         I saw two guys kissing in a park. And 
                         that was the gayest thing I'd ever seen, 
                         until I saw the KOZY-FM Halloween Haunt.

                         more months till Christmas! You'd better

                         would be stiff and dry, so he would 
                         have to have it soaked in warm water

                         It is highly possible that he has created 
                         new orifices in her decomposing flesh, 
                         leaving her to look something like —

                          Now, he probably would make love to 
                         the dead body in a cool dry place, so 
                         as not to allow further decomposition.

                         Okay, people. I know we all want to 
                         get down to the docks for the Halloween 
                         Haunt, but first we just need to inform 
                         you about thee- people or persons out 
                         there digging up bodies to have sex 
                         with them. Gentlemen?

                         Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. 
                         A person who steals bodies to have sex 
                         with them is called a necrophiliac. 
                         So that you all know what to expect, 
                         my partner Alan has a sketch of what 
                         having sex with a dead body might look 
                         like.

                         best you not look at it. Now, Alan will 
                         demostrate what having sex with a dead 
                         body might sound like.

                         They're not pirate ghosts, Jonathan, 
                         they're ghost pirates.

                                     DAVID
                         "Pirate ghost" would suggest that a 
                         pirate died, and became a ghost, but 
                         a ghost pirate is a ghost that later 
                         made a conscious decision to be a pirate.
 
                         
                                     MUNKY
                         No, David. Then they are pirate ghosts, 
                         because they're the ghosts of pirates.
 
                         
                                     FIELDY
                         You're wrong, because there were no 
                         pirates in Colorado. So these must be 
                         ghosts that have decided to become pirates 
                         after the fact.

                         But that makes them pirate ghosts.
 
                         
                                     DAVID
                         No. It makes them ghost pirates.

                         It's simple. Priest Maxi didn't want 
                         there to be a Halloween, so he decided 
                         to scare everyone away from the docks.

                         and some cotton swabs to create the 
                         ghosts.

                         a mirror, and two squirrels.

                         Well thanks a lot, KoRn! You KoRn powers 
                         really came through for us!

                         Yes! We were wrong about you. Will you 
                         please play for our Halloween party?

                         Well, sure. Why the heck not?

                         Oh, no! The pirate ghosts are back! 
                         
 
                                     ALL
                         Nibblet!

                                     NIBBLET
                         Uh oh!

               The mob is spread out in front of the stage. Jonathan takes the 
               mic.]
 
                                     JONATHAN
                         Well, this sure has been a wacky night, 
                         but me and the gang learned a lot, and 
                         we hope you did too. You all perceived 
                         us to be mean, evil people, but, really, 
                         we're just normal guys. And we all perceived 
                         pirate ghosts to be real when, actually, 
                         they were just cotton swabs. So I guess 
                         the lesson is: it's easy to perceive 
                         somethin' someway, and then be wrong. 
                         So we all need to learn to be a little 
                         less perceptive.
 
                                     ALL
                          Yeah.

                         The gang and I wrote a song about it, 
                         and it goes goes a little somethin' 
                         like this:
 
               And a-one, and-a-two, and a [goes right into "Falling Away From 
               Me." The strobe lights come on, and the crowd looks a little 
               stunned. The fifth graders are at the very front of the crowd, 
               and the body of Grandma Broflovski inches up to them]

               by and wraps a cable around his costume's legs. He begins to
