Transcript:

SCENE: A female ghoul and a male ghoul talking outside—perhaps in a graveyard!

CAPTION: Gertie was the talk of the graveyard! Everyone said she was a real man-eater! But, alas for poor Ed, he wasn’t much of a man anymore!

MALE GHOUL: Don’t you want to be my ghoulfriend?

FEMALE GHOUL: Sorry, I…I think we should eat other people!
