Thank you. Thank you to all our fans.

We love you.

[both laugh]

This song sounds pretty solid.

All we have to do is add
Poppy on drums

and we'll be ready
for the talent show tomorrow.

Where is Poppy anyway?

Well, Poppy's at home working on
a new Ghoul Girls song.

I did it.
I finished the new song.

Poppy, that's great.

Now we can play something new
for the talent show tomorrow.

I hope you like it.
I worked so hard on this song.

And, Vee, I gave you the best
spookylele solo ever.

A solo? That I play all by myself?

Yup. Want to hear it?

[guitar solo plays over phone]

Whoa, that sounds wild.

Really wild.

I hope I can pull it off.

You can do it, Vee.

You're a great musician.

Uh, yeah.

Yeah, I can totally do this.
Let's play our new song.

A one, a two, a one, two, three, four.

[playing rock music]

Your solo, Vee.

[soloing]

[playing off-key]

[string twangs]

Uh, let me try that again.

[soloing]

-Oops.
-Oh, no.

Did I make the solo too hard?

It's a little tougher than I thought.

Maybe we should go back
to our old song?

No way.
Poppy worked really hard on this song.

And besides, everyone at school's
has already heard our old one.

I think this one could be
a real Ghoul Girls classic.

-Ready?
-Let's do this, Ghoul Girls.

Ghoul Girls rule.

I've always wanted to say that.

[playing rock song]

[sighs]

[yawns]

Over to you, Vee.

[strings snap]

Oh, this solo's gone
from bad to batty.

I just can't get it.

[Oxana] Vee, darling, it's time for bed.

Bed? But we're not done
practicing for the talent show.

It's okay, Vee.
I think I'm all practiced out.

Me too. Besides, we should get
some rest before tomorrow.

Okay.

And don't worry.

I'll keep practicing the solo.

I promise. I'm going to get this.

-Mm-hmm.
-Bye.

I hope.

[Oxana] Ghoul morning, batkins.

-Time for school.
-And the big day for the talent show.

I have a feeling you'll knock them dead.

It's time to go already?
I'm still practicing my solo.

Uh, Vee, how long have you been
practicing, exactly?

Not that long. Just a few hours.

Well, a lot of hours.

Okay, the whole night.

But I'm getting close.

Just let me practice one more time?

Well, all right.

See you downstairs.

Great ghosts. It's musical mayhem in here.

I'd call it one big, scary mess.

It's because I've been
practicing my solo all night.

And I still can't get it.

Oh, I'm sure it's not as bad
as you think, Vee.

Or maybe it is.

We'll be able to tell
if you play it for us.

Okay. [soloing]

-Whoa. Watch out, Vee.
-Whoa!

-[both gasp]
-Whoa!

It's as bad as she thinks.

-Whoa!
-Oh, give her a chance!

She's not done yet!

And she's done.

What am I going to do?

I promised Poppy and Bridget
I'd get the solo.

That's why I never
promise anyone anything.

Vee, don't be so hard on yourself.

There's no way a person, or vampire,
could do that solo.

A ghost, yes. Check me out.

[imitating guitar solo]

It doesn't count if it's air guitar.

My friends are going to be
so disappointed.

Nonsense. You will play that solo.

And I know how.

We can cast a spell
on your spookylele

so it can play the solo by itself.

That idea is genius!

That idea is terrible!

What if something goes wrong?

Magic isn't always
the best solution, you know.

But the talent show is today,

and it's the only way
I'll be able to play the solo.

I can't let my friends down.

All right, but don't say
I didn't warn you.

Play the solo, play it well,
once I cast this spooky spell.

Did it work? Can it play my solo?

[soloing]

It worked! Demi, you're the best.

Well, I try.

And I succeed, if I do say so myself.

Got to go to school now.
Bye, Demi. Bye, Gregoria.

Let's go.

-Uh, go where?
-To Vee's school.

We need to make sure that
spookylele spell of yours

stays under control.

[school bell rings]

[Poppy] So, Vee, did you get the solo?

Can we play Poppy's new song
in the talent show?

Put it this way:
the solo is all taken care of.

-Yeah! Whoo-hoo!
-I knew you'd get it.

Now I really can't wait
to play in the talent show.

[soloing]

-What was that?
-Uh, I didn't hear anything. Nope.

It sounded like something
started to play.

-[soloing]
-Quiet.

You're supposed to wait
until the talent show.

Vee, who are you talking to?

Who, me? Uh, no one.

No one at all.

Hey, a game.

I love this game. Let's play.

[soloing]

[gasps]

Uh, you two can start without me.

Mr. Gore, I'll be right back.

All right, Vee.

Whoa!

Spookylele.

Whoa!

Come back right now.

Whoa!

Whew!

-Hello.
-Ah!

Demi? Gregoria?

I'm so glad you're both here.

Looks like the spell
is causing some problems,

which I said might happen,
but does anyone listen to me?

No.

There must be a magic word

that is making your spookylele
play on its own.

[plays power chords]

Hmm, what word could make it play?

-[plays heavy notes]
-Demi, that's the magic word.

"Play."

-Play?
-[playing]

Aah!

[exhales]

Hey, I'm still in here!

Sorry. What are we going to do?

Don't worry, Vee.
I just need to figure out

how to un-enchant your spookylele.

We'll keep it in here,
just to play it safe.

-Oh!
-You said "play."

-Now I said it.
-[school bell rings]

Just try to figure out
how to un-enchant it, fast.

[Poppy] Okay, Ghoul Girls.

Are we ready to rock
this talent show?

I am.

We should get our instruments
and warm up.

Good idea. Mine's in my locker.

On second thought,
we don't need to warm up.

We've got this thing in the bag.

Vee, is everything okay?

You've been acting really strange today.

Sure. Everything's screechy-peachy.

Come on, let's go outside and play.

Oh, no.

-Whoa!
-What?

Sorry. We tried to stop it.

That uke's sure got some spook.

Uh, Vee,
what is going on?

Why is your spookylele flying around?

I'll explain everything.

But first, we need to catch that uke.

[all grunt]

Got it.

[Mr. Gore] Welcome, everyone,
to the talent show.

Okay, Vee, now will you
tell us what's going on?

[sighs]

The truth is, I practiced
and practiced the solo.

But I couldn't get it.

It was too hard.

So Demi put a spell on the spookylele,
so it would play the solo...

-[soloing]
-[gasps]

...by itself.

I just... I didn't know
it would get so out of control.

But, Vee, why didn't you just tell us
you couldn't get the solo?

I knew how excited you both were
for the new song.

I didn't want to let you down.

Vee, we're a band.
We're in this together.

And we'll figure it out together too.

-Really?
-Really.

But first, we should probably
make the spell go away.

Okay, I went home,
looked through my ghost guide,

then I dropped the book
and some pages fell out,

which made the book
very angry and chompy.

-But then--
-Demi!

Oh, sorry. The good news is,

I figured out how to break the spell.

Thanks, Demi.

Next up, the Ghoul Girls.

-[cheers and applause]
-That's us.

What are we going to do?

I still can't play the solo.

Should we cancel the act?

I don't know. But I can't do it alone.

Then I have a much better idea.

That was terrific.

I haven't partied like that
since 1499.

You got my stone feet
moving and grooving.

[laughs]
Thanks. We were pretty good.

Poppy, Bridget, splitting
the solo was the best idea ever.

And you're the best friends ever.

Ghoul Girl group hug.

Oh, no.

[soloing]

Demi?

See? I told you I knew how to play.

[all laugh]

[Vampirina] "Fright at the Museum".

Now just a reminder, class,

that your science presentations
are due tomorrow.

And, boy, am I excited.

I've been practicing
my "wow" face, see?

Wow.

We're going to "wow" him, all right.

As in, "Wow, that was the worst
presentation on dinosaurs

I've ever heard."

We've been practicing all week
and we're still not ready.

There's just so many names
to remember.

And they all end in "saurus."

I knew we should've done
our project on clouds instead.

No "sauruses" there.

I'm sure we'll get it.

We've still got tonight to practice.

And I think I know a couple of ghouls
who might be able to help us study.

Tri-scare-atops.

Haunt-o-saurus.

And my personal favorite:
the scare-odactyl.

Demi, Gregoria,

our presentation isn't on dino-monsters.

Well, why didn't you say so?

We did. Twice.

Huh. Guess I was just excited
to break out Vee's

old dino-monster flashcard set.

Oops!

Forgot these actually flash
when you set them down.

Not a single picture of regular
dinosaurs in here?

"Regular" isn't a word
that describes much at my house.

Ugh, if only you could see
the dinosaurs in person.

That would help you remember them.

-Remind me why we can't?
-Because they're extinct.

Right. Yeah, I knew that. Yup.

Demi, you're a genius!

Well, I couldn't agree with you more.

[laughs] Just remind me,

why, exactly, am I a genius
in this exact moment?

We can go see the dinosaurs,
at the museum.

And we can even get pictures
of them for our presentation.

That way we won't get the names mixed up.

There's one small problem.

The museum is closed.

And our presentation is tomorrow.

Don't worry. Luckily for us,
we know a guy.

Well, technically he's not a guy.

He's a mummy.

Mama, Papa,

would it be all right
if we had a sleepover

at the museum?

Oh, that sounds scary to me.
So much fun.

Why at the museum?

It could really help us
with our science project.

And King Pepi invited us
to come over for a sleepover

last time he came over for dinner.

King Pepi is a fangtastic host.
I wish we could go.

But we have tickets to the scare-opera
in Transylvania tonight.

They're doing Madam Bat-terfly.

[singing operatically]

Ah, don't worry about a thing.

Gregoria and I will be happy
to go along to the museum

and chaperone.

Chaperoning a sleepover?

Oh, this is going to be a long night.

As long as Poppy and Bridget's
parents agree,

I think it's a bat-tastic idea.

I'll send King Pepi a message
on the World Wide Cobweb

and let him know you're coming.

Then we better go
pack our creeping bags.

I mean, our sleeping bags.

I can't believe it.

We're going to be spending
a night at the museum.

I hope we don't see anything
spooky while we're here.

The only thing you have
to worry about tonight

is Gregoria's snoring.

Now that is scary.

Hey, you try breathing
out of a stone nose.

-[all laugh]
-[gasps]

Greetings and salutations,
my dear friends,

and welcome back to
the Museum of Natural History.

-Hi, King Pepi.
-Your Excellency.

Please, please. We're friends now.

And in my kingdom, friends hug it out.

Or in? No, I think it's out.

[all laugh]

My it's good seeing you all.

It's been 600 years since this pharaoh
hosted a sleepover, and I must admit,

I'm kind of excited.

We are too, King Pepi.

Where are my manners?
Come in. Come in.

-Wow.
-So cool.

You went to all this trouble for us?

Of course. I've prepared
an entire night of mummy chess,

mummy tag, and my favorite:

mummy charades.

Can you guess who I am?

Uh... King Pepi?

She's a natural.

You're on my team.

King Pepi, there's something
we should tell you.

Oh, I can't watch.

We actually...

[chuckles]

...well, we came to see the dinosaurs.

The dinosaurs.

I thought I'd become cooler
than those bags of bones.

It's for a school project.

[sighs] I get it.

I'm not one to stand in the way
of education.

I'll show you the dinosaur
exhibit under one condition.

We play one game
of mummy charades tonight.

You've got yourself a deal.

I welcome you to...

Jurassic Hall.

[all] Wow.

I have a feeling we'll definitely

get to know our dinosaurs tonight.

Look at these.

We should get a picture of it
for our presentation.

-[camera shutters click]
-It's kind of cute.

I know a way that it can
actually be cuter.

Put it in a bonnet? Or a bow?

Or a pink tutu with matching socks?

That's how I usually dress
Miss Cuddle Cakes.

I had something else in mind.

I bet this is going to be a bad idea.

"Run fast as the wind.
Legs tall as a door.

Make this dinosaur
give us a roar."

Huh.

The spell didn't work.

I really wanted it to make
a little dino roar for us.

[loud roar]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like that. But, you know, cuter.

Your spell did work, Demi,
on the wrong dinosaur.

[roars]

Oh, y-yes, I-I see that now.

And I think that huge dinosaur
sees me.

[yelping]

[camera whines and clicks]

[Gregoria] I told you this was going
to be a bad idea.

Oh, careful.
Those are older than I am.

Watch the tail. Whew.

[Vampirina] We have to do something

before the T. rex destroys
the entire exhibit.

I got this.

"Stop the presses. Hold the phones.

Make this dinosaur
quit moving its bones."

We've got to get him to hold still.

Maybe we can use these.

Let's try it. Everyone grab one.

Here he comes.

And there he goes.

What's he doing now?

I think he's... hungry.

-[stomach gurgles]
-Oh. He's not the only one.

Maybe we can get him
to hold still with some food.

[sniffs and huffs]

It's a good thing you made
extra pizza for the sleepover.

I call it King Pepi-roni.

With extra cheese.

-Demi!
-Sorry.

All this dinosaur chasing
can really make a ghost hungry.

-[T. rex snarls]
-Here he comes.

All right, everyone.
You know the plan.

Hold on to your bats.

Now, Demi.

He barely even slowed down.

[Gregoria] Talk about fast food.

Face it, there's no way we'll be able
to wrangle that T. Rex on our own.

You're right. We need some backup.

You know, I think I can help with that.

[cracks knuckles and whistles]

Whoa. So cool.

Yeah, I've got a few friends
around the museum.

It's like the saying goes,

the bond between mummies
is stronger than our cloths.

Stronger than your cloths, huh?

This has to work.

[King Pepi] Good thing a mummy
carries extra cloths.

And good thing there's still
more King Pepi-roni pizza

with extra cheese.

Demi, that's the bait to lure
the T. rex here.

[sniffs and snarls]

He's coming for the pizza.

[whimpers]

-Get ready.
-One counter charm, coming up.

I sure hope this works.

[roars]

-Demi, now!
-"Stop the presses.

Hold the phones. Make this dinosaur
quit moving its bones."

-It worked!
-Yay!

Well, looks like we wrapped that up.

[laughs] Get it?
You see? Wrapped it up?

You know, a little mummy humor
in honor of our most esteemed hosts.

Well, you all get it.

Oh, no.

We stopped the T. rex,
but we destroyed the exhibit.

I know it might not seem like it

but, secretly, I did kind of like
the dinosaurs.

You know, as much as
you can like a bunch of bones.

I feel terrible.

I just wanted us to see them
in person and get some pictures

so we would have
a good science project.

Now we don't have pictures,
and we ruined the museum.

Maybe there's a way we could
put them back together?

Only someone who knows
a lot about dinosaurs could fix this.

Well, I have spent what feels like years
next door to them.

Probably because it has been years.

And it sounds like you have been
studying them quite some time.

Only all week.

If we put our heads together,

it might be enough to rebuild
these Jurassic giants.

King Pepi's right.
We have to at least try.

And Gregoria and I know a ton
about dino-monsters.

Uh, which, most likely,
will just confuse everyone.

What Demi's saying is
we're willing to help too.

Then let's build some dinosaurs.

weren't dinosaur experts before,

you certainly are now.

-Clever girls.
-Thanks.

I kind of do feel like an expert.

-Me too.
-Yeah.

I guess we kind of are.

And now we can finally
get those pictures.

It looks like we're going to be ready
for our science presentation after all.

And it's thanks to you, King Pepi,
for letting us stay the night.

Helping out friends
is the greatest pleasure

a king can have.

The second greatest, of course,

is playing a game of mummy charades.

What do you all say?

-We're in.
-Yay!

And that's why we love
the dinosaurs.

[applause]

That was the most sensational
dinosaur presentation

that I have ever heard.

I am so proud of you three.

Thanks. We had a little help
from some mummies.

Or... friends.

[laughs nervously]

Some friends.

And the photos you brought in,

they really help us
see these terrific creatures.

This one in particular.
I'm a regular at the museum,

but I have never seen a photo
of the T. rex this good.

It almost looks alive.

Yup, it almost does.

[all laugh]

[theme music playing]
