The friends cope with stress in their lives. Ned is uneasy about Suzie's new beau; Cookie feels under pressure when his status as the smartest kid in school comes under threat; Moze worries about everything.

Principal Pal gives Ned, Moze and Cookie six hours to plan a scary Halloween party, which they do, but perhaps their haunted hallway is a little too frightening. Later, Ned has a nightmare, in which he is a vampire, Moze is a ghost and Cookie is a werewolf, and all of them still are plagued with school-related problems.
