* **Chito:** "It's close to midnight, and something evil's lurkin' in the dark

Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to scream, but terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze, as horror looks you right between the eyes
You're paralyzed"

* **Manny:** "Chito that's enough."
* *[His funny worker Chrisy stops him in his tracks]*

* **Chrisy:** "You hear the door slam, and realize there's nowhere left to run You feel the cold hand, and wonder if you'll ever see the sun

You close your eyes, and hope that this is just imagination
Girl, but all the while, you hear a creature creepin' up behind
You're outta time"

* **Manny:** "Ha! Did you *really* think I'd fall for-"[a demonic alebrije scares him which made Manny scream]*[Manny tries to continue but going to a cemetery with Solymar,Chrisy and Tyler where zombies rises from their graves]*
* **Tyler:**Darkness falls across the land The midnight hour is close at hand Creatures crawl in search of blood

To terrorize your neighborhood
And whosoever shall be found
Without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell
And rot inside a corpse's shell
And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist
The evil of the thriller
