Snapshots
Starting in the forest, it was a dark and spooky Halloween night under the full moon.
"BOO!" (AHHH!!! Oh, it's just Dora. Hi, Dora! How's it going?)
"It's me, Dora!"
"It's Halloween!"
"Happy Halloween!" (Happy Halloween to you too, Dora!)
She picks up her goody bag of treats.
Dora has a question: "Do YOU like getting dressed up in a costume on Halloween?"
Tell her your thoughts!
"Great!"
"I'm wearing my Halloween costume right now!" she said.
What do you think she is?
What do you think she is?
"I'm a cat!"
"Meow!"
(A black cat! Fitting for Halloween! Who's a cute kitty-kitty-kitty?!)
(A black cat! Fitting for Halloween! Who's a cute kitty-kitty-kitty?!)
Dora has another question: "What are YOU going to be for Halloween?"
Go on, tell her!
"COOL!" said Dora.
(gasps)
Look!
There's Boots!
She sneaks up to him… (Guess it’s time for a little surprise. Shhh… 🤫)
Dora whispers. "Help me surprise Boots!" she asks.
Say,
"BOO!"
BOO!!!
He jumps/flinches.
"WOW! You SURPRISED me!" he went.
(both laughing)
"Happy Halloween, Boots!" she said to him.
"HAPPY Halloween, Dora!"
"Boots, what's YOUR costume?"
What do you think?
What do you think?
He has a mixed costume. "I couldn't decide between a
chicken
and a firefighter,
so I'm BOTH!" (A firefighter-chicken?!)
"I'm a FIRE-chicken!"
"BAWK-BAWK!"
(imitates siren on a firetruck)
"A fire-chicken!"
(You bring a LOT to the chicken coop!)
(You bring a LOT to the chicken coop!)
"That's funny, Boots!"
(both laughing)
"Meow-meow!"
"BAWK-BAWK!
(imitates siren)"
Just then, a young furry purple monster sneaks up to them.
Just then, a young furry purple monster sneaks up to them.
"BOO!" shouts the purple monster.
"WHOOOOA!!!" they shouted. He scared them!
"You SURPRISED us!"
(laughs)
Boots thinks someone is wearing it as a costume. "Hey!
What a cute little monster costume!"
But he is wrong. The little monster laughs and says…
"THIS isn't a costume!
I'm a REAL little monster!"
He gently pulls his fur to prove it. "See?"
"A REAL LITTLE MONSTER?!?!"
Boots is impressed. "Wow. I've never met a real little monster before.”
"Well, nice to meet you.”
They shake hands. "Nice to meet you, too, Little Monster.” (And his name is Little Monster.)
"He's a friendly little monster.”
(clock strikes)
"Uh-oh! It's the clock!"
"The Big Clock!"
What number is the arrow on the clock pointing to?
9?! (It’s 11:45!)
9?! (It’s 11:45!)
"*gasp*!!!" goes Little Monster.
"Oh, I have to hurry and get home right away!"
(Home? But why? What's the mission today?)
(Home? But why? What's the mission today?)
"Because when the arrow gets to 12,
all monsters
MUST be home!"
"It's a RULE!" (Probably the No. 1 rule for him!)
"But, but... I don't know how to get home!"
"I'm lost!"
He's almost about to cry, until…
He's almost about to cry, until…
"Aww, DON'T worry, Little Monster!"
"WE'LL take you home!"
"YOU WILL?!"
"Sure!"
Unfortunately... "But we don't know how to get to Little Monster's house."
"Who do we ask for help when we don't know which way to go?"
Do you remember?
"The Map!"
The Map, that's right! Will you check the map and find out
how to get to Little Monster's house?
You have to say, "Map."
There he is, dressed like a ghost for Halloween! Come on, say it!
GREAT!
(SPRIIIIIIIIIING!!!) Up he goes! Let's see what he has to say…
(SPRIIIIIIIIIING!!!) Up he goes! Let's see what he has to say…
Oooh! Map is a spooky-kooky Halloween ghost map tonight! He's ready for work! "BOO! Happy Halloween!" said Map. Dora and Boots need to help Little Monster get home to his monster house!
"Well, I know how to get to the Monster House!" Listen carefully….
First, go through the pumpkin patch.
Then, go through the Good Witch's Forest,
And that's how you'll get to the monster house, to bring Little Monster home!
"Little Monster, don't be late!!" said Daddy Monster.
"Time to come home, Little Monster!!" said Mommy Monster. (Don’t worry, Mr. and Mrs. Monster! We’ll get your son home!)
"Time to come home, Little Monster!!" said Mommy Monster. (Don’t worry, Mr. and Mrs. Monster! We’ll get your son home!)
Ooh, stars! Try and catch stars along the way!
So remember: Pumpkin, Witch, Monster House!
Pumpkin, Witch, Monster House! Where do we go first?
Pumpkin, right! The pumpkin patch!
Pumpkin, right! The pumpkin patch!
So first we have to find the pumpkin patch.
¿Donde esta? Do you see the pumpkin patch?
(WAIT! All those bats are in the way!)
(WAIT! All those bats are in the way!)
(They're gone! NOW can you see it?)
Over there!
"Yeah, there's the pumpkin patch!"
"Si, alli esta!"
"Hurry, HURRY!"
Come on, ¡vámonos!
Let's bring Little Monster home to his Monster House!
"Before the arrow on the Big Clock
gets to 12!"
(spooky music plays)

That's it! That's the polite way to ask for candy on Halloween!
Candy for Little Monster,

(all cheering) (CANDY-CANDY-CANDY-CANDY-CANDY-CANDY-CANDY!)
"Thank you!"
"¡Gracias!"
(clock strikes)
"THE CLOCK!"

"Look! It's the pumpkin patch!"
And there's our friend, Scarecrow!
Dora has an idea: "Let's surprise him!"
Little Monster agrees. "Yeah! Yeah!"
(all chuckling)
Shh...
On the count of three,
make like a monster and say, "BOO!"
One,
two,
three...
BOO!
"WHOA-WOOOOW!!!
WHOA-
WOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
"Wow!" said Scarecrow. "You're REALLY good at scaring me!"
"And I know a LOT about scaring, because...
I'm a SCARECROW!"
"Scarecrow, we're in a hurry to get Little Monster home!"
"Well, here!"
"This jack-o'-lantern will help you
get through the Pumpkin Patch!"
"To get through the patch, find the pumpkins that match," he explains. "Good luck!"
(Thanks, Mr. Scarecrow!)
Off they go!
Help them find the matching pumpkin! Ready?
We have to find the pumpkin
that looks exactly like jack-o'-lantern.
Let's try this one first.
Does this pumpkin look exactly like jack-o'-lantern?
No!
How about this one?
Does this pumpkin look exactly like jack-o'-lantern?
Yes!
"Yeah!
This pumpkin matches!"
"So we take
THIS pumpkin path!"
Come on!
MORE paths!
Let's find the pumpkin that matches!
Which pumpkin looks exactly like jack-o'-lantern?
That one!
"Yeah, THIS pumpkin matches ours!"
"So we take THIS path!"
Hey, look who's coming to congratulate them!
The Fiesta Trio FINALLY got their Halloween costumes!
Look, the frog is a police officer, the grasshopper is a cowboy, and the snail is a queen.
Look, the frog is a police officer, the grasshopper is a cowboy, and the snail is a queen.
(ZOOM!)
"Where do we go next?" asked Boots.
Help them out!
We went through the Pumpkin Patch, where do we go next?
Witch, right! The Good Witch's Forest!
Witch, right! The Good Witch's Forest!
So next we have to find the Good Witch's Forest.
(OOOOOOH! Those SCARY ghosts are in the way!) ¿Donde esta? Do you see the Good Witch's Forest?
The scary ghosts are gone! NOW can you see the forest?
(click, beep) Right there!
Yeah, THERE it is!
¡Sí, allí esta!
"Come on,

Let's take Little Monster home to his
Monster House!
Before the arrow
on the Big Clock
gets to
12!
(Encore, anyone?)
Here's the "Halloween, Halloween!" song again!
Halloween, Halloween!
Trick-or-treat!

(song ends; all cheering)
(laughing)
Does THAT house look familiar?
"Look! It's mi abuela's house!"
"Can we trick-or-treat at your grandma's house?" asked Boots. (Maybe Little Monster can meet Abuela.)
"Yeah, come on!
Let's
trick-or-treat!"
Little Monster rings the doorbell. (You know the drill!)
"Get ready!"
"When Abuela opens the door,
say, 'trick or treat!'"
Here she comes! (What will be her costume?)
NOW say, "Trick or treat!"
"TRICK OR TREAT!" they all said.
Abuela is impressed. "OY!" she said. "What great costumes!"
Dora tells her to make sure she's not a guest and is her granddaughter. "Abuela, it's me! Dora!"
"OH!" she said.
(laughs)
(laughs)
Have you guessed Abuela's costume?
"Look, mi Abuela got dressed up
"Look, mi Abuela got dressed up
like a pumpkin!"
(all laughing)
Now Little Monster gets his chance. "Abuela, this is our friend, Little Monster."
"HELLO!"
(laughs)
"Abuela, do you have any candy for us?"
"Here are your dulces:
caramelos,
chicles,
y chocolates!"
"Oooh!" (Yummy!)
"¡Gracias!"
"¡De nada!"
(rustling)
Little Monster runs to Dora. He thinks he heard something frightening.
"Uh-oh!"
"That sounds like Swiper the Fox!" Dora told Little Monster (and Boots).
"That sneaky fox
is ALWAYS trying to
swipe our stuff!"
"He'll try to swipe
our candy!"
(Little Monster gasps)
If you see Swiper,
say, "SWIPER!".
Where could he be, and what is his costume?
(woop sound) Hey, who made that shadow?
Swiper is a pirate for Halloween after he first dressed it up that was purple with a purple cape from Treasure Island! (He's standing on that big rock!)
You see Swiper?
WHERE?!
Right behind us?!
There he is! "SWIPER!!!"
(We gotta stop him!)
(We gotta stop him!)
We have to say, "Swiper,
no swiping!".
Say it with us!
Say it with us!
"Swiper, no swiping!"
(hoop sound)
Swiper, no swiping!
Swiper,
(Hey! Where are Dora's whiskers?)
(Hey! Where are Dora's whiskers?)
NO swiping!
(THAT was close!)
(THAT was close!)
"Oh,
maaaaaan!" he moaned.
(Listen, if ye want candy, then ya don't just take it from them, ya scurvy scallywag!)
So Dora tells him. "Swiper, if you want candy on Halloween..."
all you have to say
is...
'Trick or Treat!'"
(Come on, Swiper! It's just a simple little phrase, you can do it!)
(Come on, Swiper! It's just a simple little phrase, you can do it!)
He does so. "TRICK OR TREAT!" he said. (THAT'S it!)
So she gives him some of her candy.
Swiper thanks Dora for the treats (and he IMMEDIATELY reveals his good side once again!). "THANKS!"
"Ooh, treats! YUMMY!" said Swiper.
Tonight be his lucky night! "YIP-YIP-YIPPEE!!!" he cheered loudly.
"YIP-YIP-YIPPEE!!!"
"I LIKE HALLOWEEN!!!"
See ya later, Swiper! And remember to trick-or-treat!
In the meantime, they eventually reach the forest. Look, a gate!
"¡Miren, MIREN!"
"The Good Witch's Forest!"
"But to get IN to the Good Witch's Forest,
we have to open the BIG creaky gate!"
![The gate speaks Spanish. [Now Dora's whiskers are back.]](/wiki/File:Vlcsnap-2022-10-18-17h00m16s010.png "Vlcsnap-2022-10-18-17h00m16s010.png (320 KB)")
The gate speaks Spanish. [Now Dora's whiskers are back.]
So we say, "abre".
Say, "abre"!
¡ABRE!
(gate opens) Listen to that creak!
"It OPENED!"
Little Monster laughs.
"Sure is CREAKY!"
Now let's close the gate.
To close the creaky gate, we say, "cierra"!
Say, "cierra."
Say it!
¡CIERRA!
(gate creaks)
"IT
CLOSED!"
Thanks for saying, "cierra!"
"And look, LOOK!" Boots cried. "A WITCH, A WITCH!"
Little Monster freaks out
and runs! (Little Monster thinks the witch might do something bad.)
"Don't worry, she's a GOOD witch!"
(That's why it's called the Good Witch's Forest!)
He's still nervous…
but moves along anyway. (What a BRAVE little monster!)
"¡Hola!" Dora said to the Witch.
"¡Hola, Dora!" said the Witch. (The witch knows her! See? That IS a good witch.)
(Cat purring)
"Cute kitty!"
(Yep. It's a cute black kitten.)
(Yep. It's a cute black kitten.)
(clock strikes)
UH-OH!
"THE BIG CLOCK!!"
What number is the arrow pointing to now?
11?! (IT’S 11:55! 5 MINUTES LEFT BEFORE MIDNIGHT!) Oh, no! What number comes after 11?
12?!! OH, NO! Soon the arrow will point to 12!
11?! (IT’S 11:55! 5 MINUTES LEFT BEFORE MIDNIGHT!) Oh, no! What number comes after 11?
12?!! OH, NO! Soon the arrow will point to 12!
"I have to get home RIGHT AWAY!"
"When the clock gets to 12,
all monsters
MUST be home!"
"It's a RULE!"
The Good Witch's Forest is SO BIG! "How will we ever get through it?!" asked Boots.
"Toma--
pueden volar
con escoba."
"¡Pero tengan cuidado, porque vuela
MUY rápido!"
"¡GRACIAS!"
"¡De nada!"
Dora explains to Boots and Little Monster more information (in English) what the witch said. "The Good Witch said we can use her broomstick
to fly through the forest."
"But we better hang on TIGHT,
because the broomstick goes
SUPER, SUPER fast!" (And they might lose their bags of candy!)
"Let's put our goody bags in my Backpack
for safe keeping!"
Sounds like a plan!
"Yum-yum-yum…
…¡DELICIOSO!" said Backpack.
"We need YOUR help to
ride through the Good Witch's forest!"
She asks: "Will you help us fly through the Good Witch's forest?"
Will you? Let's help them be safe!
"Great!"
"Put your hands out in front of you…" she instructs.
"…grab on to your broomstick! Hang on tight!"
"And…
ZOOM!"
WHOOOOOO
OOOOOOOO
OOOOOO
OOAAAA
AAAAAA!!!
Oh, no! A big wall!
"We need YOUR help!"
"Point your broomstick up, up, up, up,
UP!"
"And…
ZOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOM!!!"
WHEEEEEE!!!
"I'm gonna fly us
up past the moon!"
"Point your broomstick up to the moon!"
"Up, up, up!"
"¡Arriba, arriba, ARRIBA!"
"UP, UP, UP!"
Will they make it?
"And…
"And…
ZOOM TO THE MOON! ZOOM!"
"¡A LA LUNA!"
(Whooshing and laughing)
What is all that laughing?
What is all that laughing?
"I hear stars!"
Do YOU see stars?
Notice anything special about the stars? Nothing but ORANGE and BLACK! What a traditional color for Halloween!
"Yeah, look! Halloween stars!"
"Estrellas!"
(¡Las Estrellas de Halloween!)
(¡Las Estrellas de Halloween!)
Who's THAT?!
"Look, an explorer star!"
"Look, an explorer star!"
"It's DISCO!"
Wow, look at him go! Disco! Disco!
He’s the singing and dancing disco ball Explorer Star! He can help us celebrate Halloween with music and dancing along the way!
If we can catch him!
We need to catch the stars
Reach up and catch the stars!
Reach up!
And...
Catch them,
catch them,
CATCH THEM!
We caught them! (And we caught Disco!)
Let's put them in the star pocket.
The Halloween stars and Disco are now in the star pocket.
Good star-catching!
What a ride!
HEY! Who's got the broom NOW?!
The Fiesta Trio!
"Where do we go next?"
We went through the Pumpkin Patch; we flew through the Good Witch's Forest; where do we go next?
Monster House, right!
Monster House, right!
So next we need to find the Monster House.
What is that GIANT spider doing here?
"That big, silly spider is right in the way!"
"Little Monster knows what to do!" (Scare it?!)
On the count of three…
make like a monster and say, "BOO!"
One,
two,
three…
BOOOOO!!!
(Shoo, ya pesky spider, you!)
NOW do you see the Monster House?
Sí, allí esta!
"There's my mommy and daddy!"
There they are!
Hi!
"MOMMY! DADDY!!" shouted Little Monster.
"I'M HOME!"
I'M HOME!!!"
"Little Monster! LITTLE MONSTER! You're home! You're home!"
"OH, Little Monster,
I'm SO happy to see you!"
"Did I get home in time?"
"DID I, DID IT?!"
"Let's check the Big Clock." (And let's see if the clock strikes midnight.)
What number is the arrow on the clock pointing to now?
12! (*GASP!* IT'S MIDNIGHT!)
12! (*GASP!* IT'S MIDNIGHT!)
"You made it home
JUST IN TIME!" cheered Daddy Monster.
"YAY!"
"Thank you for helping Little Monster get home," Daddy Monster told Dora and Boots.
He looks at the viewer.
"And you're all just in time… for our HALLOWEEN PARTY!"
Dora and Boots couldn't believe it! "A HALLOWEEN PARTY?!?!" (YES! At midnight!)
"Come on, everybody!"
(Holy master of monster roars and witch potions! Look at all the guests!) "There's plenty of monster cake
and monster cookies,
and monster
fruits
for everyone!"
The kids LOVE the cookies! That’s “SWEET” of the parents to host this party!
May be messy, but NO FOOD RULES on Halloween, anyway!
"YAY! A HALLOWEEN PARTY!" cheered Dora.
(all cheering)
(all cheering)
Let's summon Disco out of the star pocket to celebrate after the last party!
Here he comes!
"Hey, look!" said Little Monster. "Disco's playing music for the party!" (WHAT A GREAT EXPLORER STAR!)
(Dora and Boots laughing)
What a special Halloween night!
(HEY! How did the Fiesta Trio get in THERE?!)
They dance from inside the Big Clock!
WE DID IT!
EVERYONE dance!
Even the monsters!
We did it!
We did it!
We did it!
YAY!
¡Lo hicimos!
You did it!
We taught Swiper the Fox how to trick-or-treat! (Looks like he wants more candy!)
We did it!
We did it!
We
did it! (Lucky night for Swiper!)
"HOORAY!!!" he cheered.
We got
LOTS of yummy goodies to eat!
We did it!
We did it!
We did it!
We did it!
We went through the Pumpkin Patch,
and the Witch's Forest, too!
Let's ALL
make like a monster,
and say,
"BOO!" (Great idea, Little Monster!)
BOO!!!
BOO!!!!
BOO!!!!!
WE DID IT!!!
(music concluding)
WHOO!
(song ends)
(song ends)
(click, beep)
"We had such a
SPOOKY
Halloween adventure today!"
"What was YOUR favorite part of the trip?"
Go on! Tell her what you liked best of this dreadest mission!
Of course, "I like that, too!" said Dora.
Boots' favorite part was
riding the broomstick
past the moon!
"I LOVED that!"
Dora's favorite part
was when Little Monster
got hugs and kisses from his mommy and daddy.
"Let's see how many stars we caught!"
To call the stars,
say, "estrellas!"
¡ESTRELLAS!
"Count with me!"
One,
two,
three,
four,
five,
six!
"¡Seis estrellas!"
"SIX stars!" (And we EVEN caught Disco Star!)
"We couldn't have done it
without you!"
"Thanks for helping!"
"¡GRACIAS!"
The stars fly away! Have a Happy Halloween, everyone!
(click, beep) How spooky…
