I already made a post about this on the lost media subreddit, so I'll just copy and paste the text from that:
So before I go into this, I'll give a brief (though probably unnecessary) backstory to how I learned of this seemingly lost script.
I'm quite a fan of The Oblongs, and Creepy Susie is one of my favorite characters. And while looking for fanart of Susie on deviantart, I saw a claim that her full name was Susane Marcheline Rachelle Garnier. Curious to see if this was truly canon or not, I went on a search to see where this name first appeared regarding Susie. The earliest I found so far was on the Italian Wikipedia page for the Oblongs, which was first posted Dec 20, 2008 (https://it.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Oblongs&oldid=20832292).
During my search, I used the Wayback Machine quite often, especially when it came to Angus Oblong's (the show's creator) websites and social media accounts. When I started browsing Angus Oblong's Myspace account, I found out about the script. (https://web.archive.org/web/20090806002412/http://www.myspace.com/angusoblong)
According to the archived account, Angus had a link to a script for a planned Halloween special.
This was quite a surprise for me. I had known that there would have been a Halloween special had the Oblongs ever received a season 2, but I was unaware that there was apparently a script available to read. And it might even give an answer to my previous search for Susie's full name, since I know that the planned special would have centered around Susie. Plus, the script was posted around five months before the Wikipedia entry, so perhaps that's where they got it from (that is, if the entry wasn't made by someone just inserting there own headcanons into it, which is also plausible).
Unfortunately, the link wasn't saved on the Wayback Machine, and I haven't found any alternate ways to see this script yet. However, I will continue this search to the best of my abilities. Any assistance or tips in my search would be much appreciated! Thanks for reading!
