Elizabeth and her cousin, Birdie, are very excited about their favorite night of the year, Halloween. They are taking Elizabeth's younger brother out trick or treating, while their parents stay back to spook the neighborhood kids in their haunted graveyard. Although Elizabeth has been looking forward to this night for a long time, she becomes quite shaken when the Chinese food delivery man gives her a warning about the night ahead of her. Elizabeth decides to ignore the warning and heads out anyway. Everything is going great until they get to Mr. Peabody's house. As they head up to the front door, the uneasy feeling comes back to Elizabeth but by the time they knock, it's too late.
