September 8th, 1999

Simon: After the success of our first Halloween movie, Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein, Universal Pictures wanted to do another movie with us. This time, we encounter the wolfman. Also, the girls joined us in the movie.

Alvin: In September of 1999, we started filming for Chipmunks Meet the Wolfman. I was excited, because one, I always enjoyed horror flicks and stories, two, I get to work with Brittany for the first time in a while, three, well... I dunno.

Theodore: They chose me to transform into a wolf man! Me! Can you believe it?

...

Theodore comes out of the make up room. He's transformed into a wolf pup chipmunk.

"Well?" asked Theodore. "How do I look? Scary?"

Alvin laughed. "I'm sorry, but you look cute as a monster wolf!"

"CUTE!?" Theodore reacted. "I'm supposed to be scary! ROAR! I am wolf munk! Fear me!"

"Oh no!" Simon said playfully. "Save me, Alvin!"

"Do something!" said Dave, playfully.

Alvin laughed again.

"Alvin Matthew Seville," said Dave. "Theodore wants to nail this movie, it means so much to him. Please be nice."

"Fine, fine," Alvin said quietly.

...

Theodore: Cute?! I wanted to be scary! This is supposed to be my big break!

...

"Okay," said the director. "This is the scene where Ted first transforms into a wolf pup. When you two see him first, act real scared! Alright?"

"Crystal," said Simon.

"Remember, Theo," said the director. "Don't speak. Make puppy sounds, growl and howl!"

"You got it!" said Theodore.

"Action!"

"Grrr!" Ted growled.

Alvin and Simon scream. Theodore improvised by pouncing on Alvin and licking him.

"Ewww!" Alvin shouted. "Werewolf cooties!"

Dave and the others burst out laughing.

"Cut! Funny," said the director. "But don't act too much like a dog, okay, Ted?"

"Sorry," said Theodore.

September 10th, 1999

Alvin: A day later, we filmed the scene where Dave took away my monster stuff and my privilege to be the lead in the school play. My reaction was too real.

Simon: we also filmed the scene where Ted first acts differently than usual. He had a flat top hairstyle and everything.

Theodore: There was a part where I wanted steak, but it's revealed that I'm a vegetarian. It's true. I don't eat meat. I'm like Paul McCartney. I don't like mincemeat either.

...

"It's not fair!" Theodore pouted.

"What isn't?" asked Eleanor.

"I'm supposed to be scary, but Alvin thinks I'm cute as a werewolf."

"I think you're cute either way," said Eleanor.

"Well, it's supposed to be a Halloween movie, right? So I should be scary."

"Families will be watching, Teddy. It's not gonna be like Pet Semetary."

Theodore sighed. "I know. But I wish Alvin would get a grip and bear with me."

Eleanor gives Theodore a kiss. "It'll be fine, Ted. I promise."
