VO: Here's a sneak peak of the brand new show Xavier Riddle
and the Secret Museum, on PBS Kids! XAVIER: Isn't this exciting? We're spending the whole night
in the museum. YADINA: I know, Dr. Zoom can
barely contain herself. BRAD: Don't you spend every
night in the museum since you, um, live here? YADINA: True, but tonight our
whole nature troop is coming. We get to sleep in sleeping
bags! XAVIER: And tell stories around
a campfire! I said I'd tell the first one. Remember that one I made up?
About the tap dancing turkey? [BRAD LAUGHS] BRAD: Yup, that was funny. [YADINA LAUGHS] Classic Xavier. But remember, campfire stories
are supposed to be spooooky, not silly. You know you're supposed to
scare people, right? XAVIER: I am? YADINA: Mm hm, it's like a
campfire rule. BRAD: I hate to admit it, but,
Yadina's right. [BRAD SCREAMS] XAVIER: But, I've never told a
spooky story before. I'm all about being funny. Hmmm, I'm gonna need some help
on this one! And that means... to the
Secret Museum! YADINA: To the Secret Museum! ♪♪ BRAD: Phew, it's okay guys.
It's just a pretend squirrel. Uh, Xavier? Yadina? [CREEPY MUSIC] BRAD: Wait for me! ♪♪ XAVIER: I wonder who the Secret
Museum will send us to meet. YADINA: And where we'll go! BRAD: And when! YADINA: Look out below! XAVIER: Woohoo! Hi, Berby. YADINA: Hi, Berby. [BERBY MAKES HELLO NOISE] BRAD: Hi, Berby. Ooh! [XAVIER SINGS] XAVIER: We're getting something! [WHOOSH NOISE] BRAD: Is that a... XAVIER: feather? YADINA: Maybe the Secret Museum
is sending us to meet a bird! XAVIER: Mary Shelley.
That's who we're going to meet. YADINA: Well, she doesn't look
like a bird, but, maybe she can turn into
one. That would be a good
spooky story. BRAD: Look! We're going to
England to meet her in the year 1805. XAVIER: That's over 200 years
ago! YADINA: Did they have birds back
then? BRAD: I think yes. XAVIER: I wonder how Mary
Shelley will help me tell the spooky
campfire story. YADINA: Only one way to find
out! XAVIER: Ready for an adventure? YADINA: Ready. [BRAD SIGHS] BRAD: Ready. [BERBY MAKES COMPUTER NOISE] YADINA: Here we go! ♪♪ XAVIER: It's happening! YADINA: Hang on Dr. Zoom! XAVIER: Woohoo! BRAD: Woah! [COMPUTER NOISES] ♪♪ XAVIER: So this is England in
the year 1805. YADINA: Yup, lots of birds. BRAD: Uh oh. [BIRDS CAWING] XAVIER: Look out! [KIDS SCREAM] [RAVEN CAWS] YADINA: Mary Shelley? [BERBY MAKES COMPUTER NOISE] BRAD: Hey, there she is! It's
Mary Shelley! MARY: Oh no! Oh, thank you. I've been working
on this story all morning. YADINA: So that's what the big
feather does, you write with it. MARY: Yes, I write with it. For
hours. XAVIER: Amazing fact! The pens,
crayons, and markers we use to write with didn't
exist in 1805. Can you help me write a spooky
story for our campfire? MARY: Well, maybe... [CHURCH BELL CHIMES] [BRAD GASPS] BRAD: What's that? MARY: That means writing time is
over for the day. This is my favorite part of the
day. But, what I love even more is
imagining! BRAD: Imagining? YADINA: What's that? MARY: That's when I get to tell
stories my own way. Come! I'll show you. YADINA: Sure! MARY: Look at the clouds, tell
me what you see. It could be anything. YADINA: I see a... ghost! Dr.
Zoom sees a pumpkin ghost. MARY: Great! That's using your
imagination! YADINA: Turtle high-five! Your
turn, Brad. BRAD: I heard the word ghost,
and my eyes closed automatically. Xavier? XAVIER: I don't see any pumpkin
ghosts, but I do see a flying pumpkin pie. YADINA: Xavier, you're supposed
to come up with a spooky idea for your story. XAVIER: Oh right, spooky not
silly. Okay, now I see a singing pizza. YADINA: Typical Xavier. XAVIER: Ugh I can't help it. Silly ideas just pop into my
head. MARY: That's okay. That's the
best part of imagining. You can tell stories your own
way. When I use my imagination I see
a... a castle forming in the air. And it's home to a... a wind monster. ALL: A wind monster? XAVIER: I've never heard of a
wind monster. YADINA: I like it. Being a wind
monster would be fun. Spooky fun. MARY: The wind monster's hands
are made of leaves. And with her hands, she searches
for someone to dance with her way up in her
cloud castle. Whoooo? Whoooo will dance with me up in
the air? Whoooo? Perhaps it'll be... BRAD: Don't say Brad. Don't say
Brad. Don't say Brad. YADINA: The shell shadow queen! [BRAD GASPS] YADINA: Dun dun dun! BRAD: Whew. MARY: Yes! Isn't it fun to let your
imagination run wild? A story can be anything you want
it to be. XAVIER: But that's just it. I don't want to tell a story
that'll scare people. BRAD: Scared? Who's scared? XAVIER: I like making people
laugh. Hello, Brad. [BRAD LAUGHS] MARY: Making people laugh is
great. That's your way of telling a
story. My way is with castles and
monsters and dark places. [WIND WHOOSHING] BRAD: Monster! XAVIER: The monsters turn on the
lights and put on a da da da da da da show! [ALL LAUGH] YADINA: Oh, Xavier. XAVIER: Da da ha! Here scarecrow, catch! Guess monsters aren't good
jugglers. [ALL LAUGH] ♪♪ XAVIER: Ugh. Ugh. Ugh! I vant to take a rest. [THUD] YADINA: That's not scary. XAVIER: Ugh, I did it again. I
was being silly. I'll never be able to tell a
good campfire story. MARY: Why would you say that? That was so much spooky, silly
fun! BRAD: Yeah! YADINA: That was great. XAVIER: Wait, could I tell a
story that's spooky and silly? One that'll make people laugh? MARY: Why not? I say let your imagination run
wild and have fun telling stories
your own way. XAVIER: I like that. Thanks, Mary Shelley. Yadina, Brad, we have to get
back to the campout. YADINA: You got it, big brother. Bye, Mary Shelley! Thanks for the spooky stories. BRAD: Yes, but uh, maybe not so
many monsters next time? Please? MARY: Sorry, Brad, but I have to
tell stories my own way and I like monsters. Ta ta! XAVIER: Berby, let's go home. [BERBY MAKES COMPUTER NOISE] YADINA: That was so spooky cool. XAVIER: Yeah! I can't wait to tell a story
around the campfire my way. [XAVIER GASPS] And now I'm imagining a great
idea for it. Come on! BRAD: Time travel. Still dizzy. Oof.
[THUD] XAVIER: And now, every night,
when the museum closes and gets dark and quiet,
like it is right now, the lone ghost comes out and
walks the halls. Woooooo! Listen, can you hear it? [BOTH GULP] XAVIER: Close your eyes. Can you hear the museum ghost? It's saying "I want, I want-" "to tickle your feet!" [YADINA GIGGLES] Not my feet! [BRAD GIGGLES] And then what? XAVIER: The ghost flies around
the whole museum hunting for more toes. Wooo toes! Wooo feet! Toes! Feet! Toes! Toes! Toes! [ALL LAUGH] VO: Xavier Riddle and the Secret
Museum. An all new show starts Monday,
November 11th on PBS Kids and on the PBS Kids video app.
