    Translation

    Translate the following text into English. Mind the word order.

    Ich bin dieses Jahr auf die Halloween-Party im Haus einer Freundin gegangen. Viele Verkleidungen waren wirklich extrem gruselig. Um neun Uhr fingen im Wohnzimmer ein paar Gäste zu singen an. Einer von ihnen sang viel lauter und schlechter als alle anderen. Stell dir das vor – ein schief (flat) singender Graf Dracula! Zum Glück hörte er auch sehr bald (wieder) auf. Alles in allem war es ein ziemlich lustiger Abend.
