[Vampirina] "Trick-or-Treaters".

Wow. Cool bats.

[giggling]

[Vampirina] Happy Halloween.

Looks like our decorations
are a screaming success.

They sure are, Papa.

Maybe a little too successful.

We're running out of candy back here.

Mm! Ooh!

Demi, are you eating the candy?

I believe the term is taste-testing.

Someone has to try them
to make sure they're delicious.

And, boy, are they.

You know, I'd better try another.

[laughs] I just love Halloween.

It truly is one of the most
spooktacular days of the year.

And extra special this year,

since we've fully embraced
the human tradition

of sticker greeting.

-You mean trick-or-treating.
-Right.

[laughs] Still getting the hang of it.

Happy Halloween.

I love seeing the monster costumes
humans come up with.

Did you see that gargoyle?

The proportions were all wrong.

Hi, Chef Remy.
Want to help us hand out candy?

Hmm.

All this hubbub is over human candy?

[gulps]

Ugh! This chocolate is dreadfully boring.

I don't know, I think it's pretty good.

Ha! You would not catch me
trekking my bones door-to-door

for such a dull culinary experience.

Trick-or-treating
isn't just about the candy.

It's more than that.

Oh, then tell me.

It's about friends and costumes and--

These cool hats.

Demi, you're supposed
to put the candy in that, not your head.

Oh, that makes more sense.

And yet so much less fashionable.

Well, that may be,

but to a world-renowned chef
of my immense caliber,

the candy is all I care about.

That is why
I'll be spending Halloween

enjoying my favorite candy:
dragon taffy.

Transylvania's finest.

[gasps and exclaims]

My dragon taffies!
They have gone missing.

There were ten pieces in here,
and now there is only one left.

Someone has been eating them!

[chomping]

What? Why's everyone looking at me?

I didn't eat any dragon taffies.

[laughs nervously]

But I may have given them out
to the trick-or-treaters.

[gasps]

You gave my precious sweets to humans?

-Uh-oh.
-Why "uh-oh"?

It's just a little harmless candy, right?
No big deal?

It is a very big deal.

Dragon taffies have a fiery aftertaste.

Literally.

[chomps and gulps]

-Aah!
-[belches]

You gave magical candy out
to the whole neighborhood.

We got to get those dragon taffies back
before a human eats one.

But it would take the whole family

searching the neighborhood
to find them.

Then that's exactly what we'll do.

You do remember we're not supposed
to be seen by humans?

It's Halloween.

If there's one time
for a monster family outing,

tonight's the night.

Ooh! What shall I go as?

A mummy? A witch? A hot dog?

Oh, what about my personal
favorite: a grouchy gargoyle?

[Vampirina laughs]

You don't have to dress up
as anything tonight, Demi.

Vee's right. The humans
will think you're a ghost.

Yippee! I love ghosts.

Oh, I have to start
making my costume.

You're already in your costume.

That's the best part about tonight.

We can all be ourselves.

♪ It's a night of wings
And spooky things ♪

♪ Of goblins, ghosts and elves ♪

♪ Let's break routine
This Halloween ♪

♪ And all be seen
As our spooky selves ♪

♪ Trick or treat ♪

♪ We'll have a ball ♪

♪ We'll wear no costumes
None at all ♪

♪ Without a fuss
We'll go out as us ♪

♪ 'Cause that's how monsters
Trick-or-treat ♪

♪ If any of the neighbors ask ♪

♪ We'll tell them
That your scary face ♪

♪ Is just a mask ♪

♪ Trick or treat ♪

♪ I think we should ♪

♪ Just waltz around
The neighborhood ♪

♪ We'll stroll so far
As the ghouls we are ♪

♪ 'Cause that's how monsters
Trick-or-treat ♪

♪ Yes, that's how monsters
Trick-or-treat ♪

-Hey, Vee.
-Hi.

Happy Halloween. Cool costumes.

Thanks. Uh, Vee, your family's here.

Your whole family.

I'm hoping they'll blend right in.

Hi, Hauntleys!
Look at these costumes.

I just love how much effort
everyone puts into Halloween.

Now if I didn't know better,

I would say I was staring
at a real skeleton.

How delightful!

[laughs]

Looks like you're right.

So, you want to come
trick-or-treating with us?

I wish I could,
but we accidentally

gave out Chef Remy's
Transylvanian candies,

and we've got to get them back.

I just hope we find them
before anyone eats them.

What exactly are these
Transylvanian candies?

Dragon taffies.

Priceless delicacies not to be wasted
on the human palate.

Also, humans probably
should not eat them.

They can be... [chuckles]
...a little hot.

Yeah. Fiery hot.

-We'll help.
-The more, the scarier.

That's what we always say.

Then let's spread out.

If we're going to find those candies,
we got to do it fast.

Better all grab one of these
so we look official.

And some human candy.

After all, we owe
these trick-or-treaters

the candy they should've gotten.

You girls see any dragon taffies yet?

-Not yet.
-You can't miss them.

They glow purple.

If only we had a better view.

Hang on.

Check it out. Look how much I got.

-Ah-ha!
-[boy 2] Whoa.

-[boy 1] Pretty awesome, right?
-Gotcha.

-Great job.
-Nothing like a bat's-eye view.

That's one down, eight to go.

Look, Mom,
someone dressed their baby

to look like an adorable gargoyle.

She's so cute.

Who's she calling a baby?

I'm more than 400 years
older than her.

All I know is people seem
to be loving my ghost costume.

Oh, maybe I should add
some ghost noises.

[ghostly groaning]

[coughs]

Would you just keep your eyes open.

What? It's not like dragon taffy
is just going to walk right past us.

You goofy ghoul, two just did.

[laughs nervously] Oh.

Leave this to your ghostliness.

Ah, piece of cake.

And by cake, I mean candy.

Get it? Get it?
Because they're candy.

[chuckles] Candy.

Yeah, I got it.

Oh, I just hope my precious candies
have not gone too far.

-Nice.
-Don't worry.

We'll find them one way or another.

Either we'll find
a glowing purple wrapper,

or we'll find a human
blowing flames like a dragon.

Ghoul evening.
Your cape is so last century.

I love it.

Penelope, it's impolite to eat
other people's flowers without asking.

[whimpers and spits]

Oh, look.

Good eyes. Maybe you could
give them a hand?

Aah! My bones!

[gasps and laughs]

Mwah, mwah, mwah!

Mes amours. Oh, how I missed you.

I am sorry you were
in the same container

as those boring human candies.

[laughs]

And don't forget these.

[Demi] And ours.

Oh, sacre-boo!

We are still missing a piece.

It could be anywhere,
and anyone could have it.

[Edgar] Dragon taffy?

Spookily cool.

Oh, no.

That anyone is Edgar.

Hey, Mom, is it okay if I head inside?

Of course, dear.

My, you did well tonight.

Yup. I got to go count all my candy,
and try this dragon taffy.

Oh! My beloved taffy.

Edgar can't eat that candy,
or he'll breathe fire like a dragon.

That's why humans
can't eat dragon taffies?

I just thought they were spicy.

What are we going to do?

If only there was a way
to switch out the candy

without Edgar seeing.

Maybe there is a way.

Trick-or-treating got us into this mess,

so what if trick-or-treating
can get us out?

Oh, we knock on the door
and switch out the candy

when he's not looking.

A little trick for a treat. I like it.

We'd have to be fast, which is hard
when you have stone legs.

But it might just work.

Then go, my little bats.
We'll keep Edna occupied.

Edna! Oh, what a lovely costume.

It's so... so you.

[Vampirina] Let's go.

Everyone know the plan?

No! I have never done
the trick-or-treating.

I-I-I do not know how it works.

It's nothing to be scared of.

And I'd know.
I'm scared of most things.

Whoa.

[all] Trick or treat!

Hey, Poppy. Hey, Vee.

And who are you guys?

Ah! Pleased to meet you.
I am a ghost.

I mean, I'm dressed as a ghost,
you know, in a ghost costume,

because that's what I'm looking like.

They're my friends from, uh...

Close by. In the neighborhood.

Hmm.

Now's our chance.

Wait a second.
You didn't buy these costumes.

Um...

You must've made them.

No store sells anything this good.

Oh, oh, that is right.

We-we-we made them ourselves.

Yes. Every last bone.
[laughs nervously]

Well, we'll be seeing you.

Hang on.

You forgot your candy.

He's just giving us candy.

Of course. I've got so much,
I can totally share.

Oh, man.

Since it's your first time
trick-or-treating in Pennsylvania, Vee,

I was going to give you this
really cool dragon candy I got.

Yeah, but it looks like I lost it.

Um...

Maybe you should, uh, check again?

Hey, there it is.

Oh, cool.

Here you go, Vee. Happy Halloween.

Happy Halloween, Edgar.

[Remy] That does it.

The dragon taffies
are now back safe and sound.

And we didn't even have to call
the fire department once.

I owe you all a big merci.

Thank you.

Without you, I might not have
ever found my precious candies.

I guess our first time
trick-or-treating turned out okay.

Okay? I loved it!

Humans give you candy...
just because.

[titters]

That's what trick-or-treating's all about.

-The sweets?
-[laughs] No, Chef Remy.

Being sweet to each other.

Hmm. Well, that's a tradition
I think I can get my bones behind.

Speaking of trick-or-treating,

we've got a few more houses to get to
if you want to come with us.

Totally! I do have the best
vampire costume, after all.

-Anybody else?
-Count me in.

-Sounds terrorific.
-Spooktacular.

Any chance you have room for moi, too?

Of course we do.

You do know it'll be all
human candy, right?

-You won't like it.
-Oh, yes, yes, I know.

To a skeleton chef,
the candy might be boring.

But the company...

[laughs]

...now that is sweet.

[all chattering]

[Vampirina] "Play It Again, Vee".

A little more black paint here. And here.

[laughs]

And over here.

There. All done. You can come in now.

What have you got to show us?

-I'm so excited.
-I love surprises.

My end-of-the-school-year
project is finally ready.

Dracula drum roll, please.

-Hey!
-[chuckles nervously] Sorry.

It's a diorama of the Scare B and B.

-You got it all so small!
-So cute.

It's just like our Scare B and B,
down to the tiniest detail. Look.

There's cobwebs on the windows,
Mama's garden out back.

[Gregoria] Hey, that's a mini-me
up there on the roof.

Aww, look at that tiny stony scowl.

I'll show you a bigger stony scowl.

I'm good.

Oh, and press the doorbell, Papa.

-[doorbell screams]
-[chuckles]

Well, aren't you as smart as a spider?

Your hard work really
screams through, batkins.

Thanks, Mama.

I've never worked so long or so hard
on a school project before,

but I just had to get everything
about our house perfect.

Maybe a little too perfect,
if you ask me.

I think you need to add
a few messes here and there

to make it realistic.

This place attracts them
like werewolves to a full moon.

[doorbell screams]

Bonjour.

[kids shouting]

Oh, dear.

Oh, my bones!

Oh, my pharaoh.

Come along,
mummy's little monsters.

It's time for bed.

No bed!

No sleep!

Hear that? Sounds like a mess.

I guess you're right, Gregoria.

Never a dull moment around here.

Coming, Mary-Margaret.

Excellent work, Vee.
It'll be a scary success.

Mwah.

You'd better get to bed, screamheart.

You'll want to be nice and rested
for your big day tomorrow.

Okay, Mama.

I'm so excited to show everybody at school
what our home's really like.

Good night.

[owl hooting]

[ringing]

Today's the big day.

Or, maybe I should say
the little miniature-sized day.

[laughs]

[indistinct chattering]

See? This place is a mess.

-What do you mean?
-Take a look for yourself.

[Boris] Wolfie, down. You ate my
last pair of loafers for dinner.

It's too cold to go outside
with only one shoe.

-[barks]
-Whoa!

[laughs]

[Mary-Margaret] It's time for breakfast,
my mummified munchkins.

[kids giggle]

Got to boogie.

Ah, magnifique.

Oops.

Watch out for exploding cupcakes.

Whew.

It's crazier than a banshee's
birthday bash in here.

And I've been to a lot of those.

[laughing] I'll be careful.

I just need to grab my backpack
and get my project safely to school.

How hard could it be?

I guess we're about to find out.

[barking]

-Come here, boy.
-Whew!

Whoa!

-[barking]
-Whoa! Whew!

-Vee!
-Look!

-Here, here!
-Sorry. What?

[Mary-Margaret] Sarcopha--

My diorama!

Ah-ha!

Oh, slipped through my fingers.

Whoa!

-Whew.
-Whee!

-Got it. Whoa!
-[barking]

I take that back.
Go long, Vee. Run.

Ah! Whoa!

Whew, that was a close one.

Better get my backpack
and get going.

Fire in the hole!

Oh, no! My project!

[all gasp]

So sorry, Vee.

I can't hand in my project
covered in mummy wraps

and exploding cupcakes.

I worked so hard to make it look perfect.

Oh, batkins, it will be okay.

Yeah, if this was Transylvania.
Monster messes are okay there.

But this is Pennsylvania.
Humans just wouldn't get it.

At all.

As someone who messes up a lot,
I got this.

So, how's it looking, Vee?

Bad. Batty bad.

I wish I could just start this day over.

Well, I mean, you can,
with a repeating spell.

You'll get a chance to try it
all over again.

Oh, oh, one time,
I had this delicious cookie.

It was so good that I just had
to eat it again and again.

Ate it every day for a month.

My point is, if you do over this morning,

you might have a chance
to save your diorama.

Okay. I'm going to do it... again.

Here's the spell. Ghoul luck.

"Witches in willows and cats in clover.

Repeat the day and do it all over."

I hope this works.

[rings]

My diorama.

It's all back together.

The do-over spell worked.

[indistinct chattering]

See? This place is a mess.

But it's not going to mess
with my perfect project.

Not this time.

Hmm. Last time I put my diorama
on the kitchen table,

and it got hit
by an exploding cupcake.

Better find a safer place.

Let's do this do-over.

-[barking]
-Come here, boy.

-Vee!
-Look!

Yeah! Here!

-Cool!
-Whoa!

-Sarcopha-- whoa!
-Sorry.

There. Safe and sound.

Now, can't leave without my backpack.

Oh, is this the school project
I am hearing so much about?

Yep. Here's the kitchen.

Oh. Shoo, shoo, shoo away
from the expl*sive delicacies.

My diorama! Got it!

-Got it?
-[crashing]

[all gasp]

-So sorry, Vee.
-Oh, no!

Don't got it. Not again.

Okay, time to do over this do-over.

The kitchen counter
wasn't a good place,

and neither was the table.

[rings]

[indistinct chattering]

See? This place is a mess.

You don't even know the half of it.

[barking]

Come here, boy.

-Vee!
-Yeah, here!

Whoa!

[barking]

[Vampirina screaming]

Ah.

[Vampirina] Whoa!

Whoa!

[loud crash]

Don't tell me. It's broken. Again.

I am a big fan of making an entrance,
but this is, how you say,

going over the board.

You're right, Chef Remy.
There has to be an easier way.

I just need one more do-over.

Let's do this do-over.

[rings]

Witches always say,
"third time's the charm."

I hope they're right.

[indistinct chattering]

See? This place is--

Whoa! --a mess.

A mess that's not going to get
between me and my diorama,

because this time I'm not
letting go of it.

Sorry. Coming through.

Whew. I made it. Now, time to go.

Sacre-boo! They're going to blow!

Ah!

-So sorry, Vee.
-Oh, no.

Oh, bats.

[sighs]

I'm starting to think a do-over
isn't going to work at all.

[rings]

One last try.

But if I can't save it this time,

I'm just going to have to monster up
and go to school with what I have.

See? This place is a mess.

[laughs]

You can say that again.

-This pl--
-But don't.

I got it the first couple times.

Wolfie, down, boy. You ate my
last pair of loafers for dinner.

It's too cold to go outside
with only one shoe.

And I've got a surprise waiting
for Oxana on the front stoop.

Aww. Papa is the sweetest.

[Mary-Margaret] It's time for breakfast,
my mummified munchkins.

[kids laughing]

-No eat.
-Got to boogie.

[all] We want Vee! We want Vee!

A surprise dance? For me?

Oh! Watch out for exploding cupcakes.

They're for tonight's
spookily special dinner.

I think I've been going about
this do-over all wrong.

Do-over?

That must be why I've been
having some serious déjà vu.

I was so busy trying to protect
my perfect diorama,

I missed some pretty bat-tastic stuff.

Nothing's perfect around here.

And maybe that's a good thing.

-Vee!
-Boogie.

Surprise.

[all giggle]

Oh.

[gasps]

Some special delivery snapdragons
for my bat-tastic wife.

Oh, thank you, Boris.

Ooh, they're absolutely hideous. Mwah.

Try this one. It has just
the right amount of boom.

Mmm, spookilicious.

[laughs]

Now, where should I put my project?

This seems as safe a place as any.

But whatever happens,
I'm definitely done with do-overs.

What now?

-Oh, no!
-So sorry, Vee.

Batkins, it will be okay.

It might need a little bit of love,
but we'll find a way to fix it.

Ah, hmm.

Oh, the good news is,
it tastes like cake.

Cake, huh?

I know what we can do.
