This is a normal post No hablo español
So I'm assuming these people had all been fed a story earlier about a ghost kid in the hotel. Otherwise some of those reactions are truly fucking bizarre.

This is a normal post Translation
Firstly, apologies for rusty Spanish:

Banner: "We want to feel fear... but without taking risks"

Presenter: "Corneo(?) is very beautiful, right? *audience groan* Of course, until you take them out of context. That is what we have done in the hidden camera [[god this is hard]]. We took a normal child - normal, without any special effects - (something) memories (something)..."
Female person - "(something something) emotional"
Presenter - "A very beautiful little girl, we put her in a nightgown, a little (something), and we put her in a hotel corridor - nothing more. Nothing more. Never has a hidden camera been so easy. See what happens."

*Cut to VT*

Before we give a little fear we prepare this camera against, transform this adorable girl into a pallid girl. (something about lying in wait)

[[bloody hell this is really difficult]]

How rational are people when they encounter (the child of?) no-one in the corridor of their hotel?

*Cue first clip of woman with glasses walking into corridor*

VO: And she doesn't touch her [as the woman walks along the wall past the girl]

[too many voices cutting to audience laughter for me to get it... sorry guys. Think it begins: "Look, if -"]

*scream*
*Scream*
"Ha Ha" "Incredible"

Cleaning woman: "The maid is scared of her!(?)"

[God, my Spanish has really gone downhill. If anyone wants to do a better job, feel free. I'd love to have a translation and then listen for the bits I missed.]

Next couple at 1:53 - Really hard to tell with the laughter. Think it's "Ho ho, they believe (inaudible)"

Screamy woman screams, then fade back to studio, guy on right says:
"How diplomatic of her!" (?)

Okay, it finishes up with a One Show-type discussion about response to fear: fight, flight, freeze, attack. "Ah yes," says the presenter, "but it can also give us amusement"
*repeat screamy woman*


Translator's note: And I'm spent. I think I deserve a beer. Although I did lose interest at the end. I don't even watch the One Show in English. Is it even still on the air? Because of this fact, I may have fudged the last paragraph. I assure you I am doing my best to find a shit to give. For the time being, though, you'll just have to deal with it.

This is a normal post I haven't spoken a word since...
2008? 2009? And I never learned it at school, either. All self-taught.

Hope it helps make more sense of the set-up, at least. It was good to try Spanish again.

Oh, thanks, by the way. I'll take any compliment I can get :)

This is a normal post I liked the cleaning lady.
And when the little girl jumped. She's only human after all.

This is a normal post this is why people are so fucking stupid
easily led into believing shit like that by watching a few films. Yet give them some simple facts in the form of a book and it goes un-noticed.
