It's Halloween, children,
and there's much to be afraid of.
Ghouls, goblins,
and those spooky motion sensor decorations.
You know the ones.
But nothing's more frightening
than what we'll see this evening.
The sky will turn red.
Creepy things will happen.
For tonight, there will be a blood moon!
You hear me? I said a blood moon's coming.
-[both laugh] -That's pretty spooky, Grandma.
But we're going to go get ready for Halloween.
Blood moon. [blows raspberry]
We're all doomed.
[thunder
All right, all right, get in.
Lock them up, Bill!
That blood moon's a-coming
and I'm not taking any chances.
All right, Ma.
Ah, there you go.
Sorry, but it's just for tonight.
Be on your best behavior.
[keys rattle]
All set.
Huh? Hello?
Someone there?
[creaking]
Hello?
I'm sure I heard something.
[rattling]
[gulps]
Whoever's in there, just come on out now.
[squawks]
Whew! You almost had me there.
Well, let's get you inside the--
hey, get back here, chicken. Come here, you.
[shrieks]
[laughs] Happy Halloween, Dad.
Bet you wish you'd fixed that hole now, huh?
Did I scare you, Dad?
Uh, Dad?
[inhales]
[screams]
[crows cawing]
[Cricket] I'll take that as a yes.
Can you believe it, Tilly? Our first Halloween in Big City.
My hypothesis is that our evening will be delicious.
I'm going to eat so much candy, I'm going to throw up.
That way, I'll have room for even more candy.
Ooh, I like the costume, Tilly.
What are you? A mad scientist?
Oh, no, I'm just a regular scientist.
If I'm angered at all, it is due to a lack of funding
for my research.
-[knock on door] -[Bill] Hey, kids.
I just finished locking up the animals,
and gave Grandma her many medications.
Which means it's time for...
trick-or-treating!
Actually, Dad, we've got some good news.
We don't need you for Halloween this year.
What are you talking about?
[Cricket] Back in the country,
houses were few and far between.
You had to drive us around just so we could trick-or-treat.
We'd drive for miles and still hardly get any candy.
But here in the city,
homes are all squished together.
We're going to get ten times more candy
than we ever did in the country.
So now your services are completely unnecessary.
Isn't that great, Papa?
Me and Tilly can finally trick-or-treat by ourselves.
But I always take you trick-or-treating.
-Can't we just-- -Shh.
Your years of Halloween service will not be forgotten.
But...
Tilly, you got the bucket of fake blood?
-[Tilly] Fake? -Hmm.
Beware the blood moon.
Oh, Grandma, not this again.
Yes, this again.
Y'all stay inside tonight.
It's happening, Tilly. Grandma's starting to lose it.
I'm warning you both!
A blood moon on Halloween night
is a powerful thing.
After tonight, our family may never be the same!
[all] Aah!
Stay back.
Oh.
It's just the coffee maid from next door.
Hey, I have a life outside of work, you know.
Wait, is that a club?
-Yes. -Ugh, whatever.
Just tell Cricket he left this abomination in the café.
When I see him again, I am going to--
-Booga, booga, booga! -[screams]
[Cricket] Happy Halloween, Gloria.
Uh, Gloria?
Look what you done, boy.
Now we got a body on our hands.
Hi, Gloria. You ready, brother?
Does candy taste sweet?
-Yes. -Big City Halloween awaits!
Timber!
Look, kids, your dad's a lumberjack.
Since Grandma's all worried about tonight,
I figured I'd throw on a costume
and come along as your chaperone.
Oh, we're way ahead of you, Dad.
Remy's coming, and he's bringing his bodyguard Vasquez.
Hey, guys!
Master Remy, allow me to assist you.
No, thank you. I can get down on my--
-Master Remy! -No. Don't help.
-[grunts] -[costume squeaking]
Whoa, you look pretty mad for a hot dog.
I am mad. Did you see Vasquez?
He asked me weeks ago what I was dressing up as for Halloween.
And sure enough, on Halloween night,
he shows up wearing the same thing.
Vasquez stole my idea.
Remy, I hear you, I see you,
but there's no time to worry about costume theft.
We got to go have the greatest night of our lives!
[all] Whoo!
Huh?
Whoa.
[clucks]
-What the...? -[squawks]
-What's wrong with the animals? -I will admit,
their behavior is strange.
[animals groaning]
Very strange.
Oh, I get it. Y'all trying to scare us, huh?
Well, you should leave that to the professionals.
Aah! Demon pig! Demon pig!
Aah! My buttery buns!
Huh? Master Remy!
Baby? Cynthia? What's happening to y'all?
Aww. Life finds a way.
[squeals]
-[screams] -Not good, guys.
This is not good.
Kids, hurry, get inside!
-[growls] -We can't.
-[all squawking] -[yells]
Don't worry, children.
I am your shield.
[all grunt]
What the heck was that?
That is a Halloween blood moon.
I've never seen one myself,
but I've heard grisly tales from times past.
Entire farms have been undone by its wicked curse.
Families torn apart!
Well, hold on.
We're safe as long as we stay inside the house.
I'm sure the blood moon will fade in a few hours,
and everything will be back to normal.
A few hours? I can't wait that long.
Trick-or-treating will be over.
Isn't there anything we can do?
Nothing now. Bill should have penned the animals beforehand.
But I did.
They must have broken out.
[groaning]
Huh?
Welcome back.
[screams]
I got to get out of here.
You can't leave.
No one can leave.
-What? -You're trapped here, Gloria.
We all are.
But I have a party to go to.
There is no way I'm staying here.
-Wait! -I'm coming, party!
Come back! You don't understand!
-Oh, they are so weird. -[growls]
Huh? What?
-[animals snarl] -[fabric ripping]
-[Gloria screams] -Ooh.
Get away. I can't see.
[gasping and panting]
-Is she okay? -Never mind her.
We have a real problem.
There's no escape. No trick-or-treating.
Halloween is ruined!
[kids] Trick or tre
Happy Halloween, kids.
[sighs]
-[bleats angrily] -Aah!
I can't believe this. Our first Halloween in Big City,
and this blood moon comes along
and makes all the farm animals crazy.
As a scientist,
this is a very unique development.
It's trying to get in.
We need to barricade the entrance.
Oh, easy there. They won't get in.
We're safe as long as we stay in the house.
I can feel my youth draining away.
What is a boy without his trick or treats?
Well, you know,
I think I may have a way you can trick-or-treat after all.
Well, don't hold back. Spit it out.
Who says you can't enjoy
the fun of trick-or-treating indoors?
Say what now?
You'll get your trick-or-treating,
and we'll be together as a family.
It'll be fun. Come on, everybody.
[Gloria] Stupid animals. Stupid house.
I can't believe I called in sick tonight
just to be stuck in a house full of bozos.
For once, I had the chance to go to an actual party.
I could have socialized. I could have danced.
But, no. Instead, I'm stuck inside
because of some stupid animals!
[gasps] Oh, my.
Grandma, what happens if you are bitten
by a blood moon animal?
[grunts]
Kevin will be there,
and he'll be alone with Shelby!
Hmm, I reckon she'll either be fine,
or she'll turn into one of them!
[squeals]
[shrieks]
Oh, my goodness, it's begun.
This is an opportunity, Grandma.
We must study her.
Study? I'm afraid it's too late for that, Tilly.
This is the stupidest day of my life.
Huh? What do you think you're doing?
I'm taking no chances.
[grunts and hisses]
It's too dangerous to let her roam free.
We got to keep her locked up in here
until she changes.
Just a second, Grandma.
What if she escapes?
Shouldn't we find some tools to defend ourselves?
Hmm.
Good thinking, Tilly.
I'll go get my bag of weapons.
Don't go near her till I get back.
Okay, I won't.
Don't worry, Gloria, I'm going to help you.
Oh, thank goodness.
You're not crazy like the rest of your family.
I'm going to cure you of the demon illness you possess.
Oh, you're kidding me.
[animals squawking and lowing]
Trick-or-treating indoors. This'll be fun.
How is this even supposed to work?
[Bill] You got to knock on the door.
Hello, I am an old lady.
Bill Green, what are you doing?
There's no Bill here.
My name is... Jill.
Candy, please, Jill.
Oh, I've got something even better than candy.
Tiny porcelain horses.
One for you, and you, and can't forget you.
Ahh...
-[Bill] Remy, don't eat that. -Aww.
[chickens clucking]
-[grunts] -[electricity crackles]
Whoa, what happened to the lights?
Not to worry. I'm sure the lights will be back on soon.
Anyway, onto the next room.
I mean, house.
Master Remy, I'll go check on the power.
You just stay here.
Does that work for you, Master Remy?
Sure. You can do whatever you want, Vasquez.
Whatever makes you happy.
Yes, sir.
Costume stealer.
[animals grunting and snarling]
[Vasquez] What on earth?
That's more shocking than anything I've seen tonight.
I have to tell the others.
[grunting]
Untie me right now.
The subject seems to be changing.
-No, I'm not. -[sniffs]
The subject smells like a farm animal.
-What? -The subject is developing
a taste for human flesh.
Tilly, untie me.
I'm going to miss the party.
Don't you understand?
The subject knows my name
and is trying to manipulate me into sympathizing.
I will not give in.
-What? -She seems so human.
It's me!
[Cricket] Okay, trick or treat. Open up.
Let's see if Dad can top Jill.
Hey, if you don't want your porcelain horse,
can I have it?
What's happening, my dudes?
My name's, uh, Zill.
Come on in, kiddos.
Trick-or-treaters don't usually come inside,
so that's stranger danger right there.
But, okay.
-[bleating] -Eww.
You little dudes like bobbing for apples?
[both] Do we? Yeah!
Great. Of course, I'm fresh out of apples.
But I got these eggs.
It's pretty much the same.
Bite gently now, because they are raw.
Is this some kind of sick joke?
Oh, come on, I'm trying here.
Zill can give you a cool Halloween.
Just give him a chance.
There's nothing cool about salmonella, "Zill."
[grunting]
I got one! I got one!
Aww. I swallowed some shell.
This stinks.
[snarling]
[animals scream fiercely]
I'm back. I even found my old bear traps.
Tilly, what are you doing in there?
-[jiggles doorknob] -I told you to stay away.
[gasps] I'm running out of time.
Let us begin phase two of my research.
-What are you doing? -Hold still.
I just need a small saliva sample.
[grunts]
-[screams] -Tilly!
I'm coming for you, baby!
Get away from my granddaughter, demon!
No, Grandma, stay back.
My research must continue. I've got this under control!
I should be up to my eyes in candy right now.
But instead, all I got is raw eggs
and a man who is terrible at impressions.
I'm doing my best, all right?
-[all gasp] -Friends.
I've seen something horrifying.
The animals didn't break through the garage door.
It was open from the outside.
Oh, great, now the animals are growing fingers
and unlocking their own locks.
It's the apocalypse.
Don't listen to him, Cricket.
He'd steal the bun off your own back
if you weren't looking.
Master Remy, what are you talking about?
[yells]
You stole my costume!
-This is unbelievable... -I need you to listen to me...
Nobody listened to me about the blood moon...
[overlapped shouting]
[squawks]
This is a time for study, not hysteria.
[gasps] Look.
[clucks]
How did that get in?
He must have come in through Cricket's secret entrance.
[roaring]
[all scream]
They're in the house
Miss Brenda is displaying signs of aggression.
Stay back, devil!
[panting]
Get away. I'm warning you.
Don't make me use my outlets.
Tape, pens, rubber bands, tape. How much tape do we need?
[whimpers and screams]
[snarls]
Huh? Wait a second.
Ah! No, bad demon!
Ha-ha!
Your weakness is now my strength.
[clucking]
Everyone, listen up. I'm a genius.
The animals don't like the light.
Get back, demon.
Ah-ha!
Take that, chicken.
Right in the eyes.
[all panting]
Sorry, monsters, your dinner's been moved to never.
Uh-oh.
[all shriek]
Aah!
All right, door is secure.
Aah!
For now.
Is everyone all right?
Oh, yeah. A-okay.
[laughs nervously]
Well, at least we all made it out of there.
[shrieks]
Morale is low. Our one consolation is that
-it will all be over soon. -That's right, sweetie.
The blood moon will be over in a couple hours.
Right. That's what I meant.
A couple of hours? We barely survived one.
Oh, I didn't think it would be this bad.
You didn't think what would be so bad?
What an odd thing to say.
Whatever could you mean by that suspicious thing
you mumbled to yourself?
You're making me real nervous, son,
with those suspicious eyes of yours.
-Huh? -No!
What the... oh, my gosh.
The lock to the garage!
-[all gasp] -Saboteur!
He was in league with the animals.
Wait, no, I can explain.
The truth is...
oh, you're right.
It was me. I let the animals out.
-Why? -I did it because...
I didn't want you to trick-or-treat without me.
I know there wasn't much
to trick-or-treating in the country,
but I loved it.
We'd drive the old country roads, from house to house.
[chuckles]
And then pig out on candy in the truck.
Oh, those were great times.
Halloween was something we did together.
And I wouldn't trade that for the world.
So when I saw you running off by yourselves, I panicked.
But then I remembered the blood moon.
I knew the animals would go crazy and trap you at home.
I figured it would be fine if I was careful.
I just wanted to keep us together.
I realize this whole thing
turned into a big whoopsie-daisy.
Oh, is that what you call this?
A whoopsie-daisy?
You put the whole family in danger.
And also, no trick-or-treating!
Are you hearing this, Tilly?
I hear it, and I cannot absorb it.
Oh, and you broke Tilly while you were at it.
Well, when you put it like that...
Oh, Bill.
Well, you wanted us to spend Halloween together,
so here we are.
Happy Halloween.
Well, I...
[sighs]
What's going to happen to us, Grandma?
Well, we'll either get eaten
or walk away from this event unable to trust Bill ever again.
[both sigh]
[sighs]
Hmm.
What I did was... well, it was downright pathetic.
But, dang it, Halloween's not over yet.
There's an apartment building next door.
If we can get there, you can still trick-or-treat.
Did you forget about the bloodthirsty animals
waiting outside the door?
We're not going through the door.
Let's go get your Halloween.
[all gasp]
[all yelling and coughing]
That was a lot harder than I thought.
[clucking and snarling]
Okay, if we move swiftly, we shouldn't alert the animals.
Everyone be real quiet.
[pounding on door]
Trick or treat!
Oh, no. A trick-or-treater.
-What are you doing? Stop it. -Get away from there.
I know you're in there.
I can hear you rustling around inside.
If you won't come out, then I'll just come in.
[all] No! No! Stop!
-Oh, no! -[animals snarling]
Time to run.
[all panting and whimpering]
[Bill] Come on, go!
[Cricket] Get inside, get inside.
[grunts]
What?
-[kids] Trick-or-treat. -[indistinct chattering]
[kids laughing]
It's beautiful.
-[squawks] -Aah!
Looks like we'll get to trick-or-treat after all.
Sounds great, but move it along!
[all roaring]
[laughs]
[all] Trick or treat!
-Now run for your lives. -Huh?
Aah!
Trick or treat. Run away!
-Give me that! -Huh?
Aah!
[Cricket] Happy Halloween! The animals are coming!
[all panting]
Master Remy, I have something to tell you.
Please, don't take this the wrong way,
but I didn't steal your costume idea.
I think you stole mine.
What? That's ridiculous.
I take you trick-or-treating every year,
and I'm always a hot dog.
Don't you remember?
What? No, I...
Trick or treat.
Wow, I got so much candy!
[both laugh]
Aah!
[sobs]
All along, I was the costume stealer.
You must be so mad at me.
Not at all. In fact, I'm so proud
I positively influenced your life.
I guess we're just a couple of weenies, huh?
We're more than weenies, Master Remy.
We're friends.
[animals roaring]
Huh? Remy!
Keep moving.
[Cricket] Oh, no.
It's a dead end.
Hey, it's the Greens. What's happening?
-Move! -Happy Halloween, Brett.
Great party, but you might want to run now.
What's the hurry? We got chips--
-Whoa! -[all scream]
-[animals roaring] -[guests scream]
Come on, guys. Let's move.
[all panting]
[exclaims]
We're trapped.
I bring you into this world and you take me out?
Just like that fortune-teller predicted.
[whimpers]
Dad? Dad, what are you doing?
I'm buying you some time.
This'll give you a few moments to enjoy your Halloween candy.
It's the least I can do to make up for all this.
Come get me, you bloodthirsty animals.
What?
[animals snarling]
Get away from my dad, you beasts!
Aah!
Cricket, what are you doing?
Sorry, Dad, I was wrong.
I don't want to spend my last moments eating candy.
I want to spend them with you.
[shrieks]
If we're going down...
Then we're going down as a family.
[animals roaring]
Oh, this is it.
Get... huh?
They've all stopped.
The animals are back to normal.
[bleating and lowing]
-[all cheer] -We made it.
From now on, I promise we'll never go trick-or-treating
without you, Dad.
Just don't ever scare us like this again.
-You got it. -Hey, I'm alive.
Master Remy, looks like it's over.
[coughs]
So, what are we dressing up as next year?
[gasping]
I made it! What'd I miss?
[all laugh]
