[creepy laughter]

- [gasps]
- [Barbie] Believe it or not,

this all started with
the Swiss Marmot Migration.

No, seriously, it did.

Turns out, when thousands
of burrowing mammals

go on the move,
both documentarians,

i.e. dad, and engineers,
i.e. mom, gotta go check it out.

In Switzerland.

Which would have been
completely cool

except that it was
right before Halloween.

And in the Roberts family
Halloween is serious business.

[clears throat]

- Ta-dah!
- [all exclaiming]

We'll transform the front yard
into a haunted graveyard,

complete with tombstones
and skeletons

and all kinds of scary things.

Any kid brave enough to make
it to the front door

will get a huge treat.

You just found out your parents
won't be here for Halloween.

How did you come up
with all of this so fast?

I always keep a holiday
back-up plan.

Seasonal decorating
emergencies happen
more often than you think.

From Barbie Roberts we would
expect nothing less.

So what do you say?
Are you in?

- Duh.
- You bet!

[Ken] Sounds awesome!

Thank you, guys.

This is going to be
the best Halloween ever!

[grunts]

Oh, Ken!
Oops.

[giggling]

[humming]

[sighs]

Let the traditional Halloween

monster movie marathon begin.

Dream house,
dim the lights, please.

[girl]
Can we watch, too?

I see someone's ready
for Halloween.

- [both giggling]
- You know how much I love it.

We both do.
That's why we want to watch
monster movies with you.

- To get in the mood.
- Are you sure?

Some of the movies
are kinda scary.

Ha! We won't be scared.

- We're not babies.
- What's first?

Creepy Cabin ?
Where's the Werewolf ?

I don't think
you're ready for those.

Are You My Mummy?
Seriously?

Is that even a real
monster movie?

It's a classic.
You make it through this one,

then we'll talk about
watching something
with a little more bite.

- I'm ready.
- Bring it on!

Now that's what
I'm talking about.

[giggles]

I don't know, Teresa.

What's so scary about a...
[yelps]

[laughs]
Sorry, Ken.

Here's the last
of the tombstones.

Put them right there.

Looking good, right?

Yeah. It is, but I feel like
it's missing something.

Something... really scary.

[Mrs. Reardon clears throat]

[both scream]

Oh, Mrs. Reardon.

Mr. Reardon.

Oh, what can I do for you?

What you can do is remove
this tastelessness

from your yard at once.

Chapter , subcategory A:

"Front yard Halloween
decor is limited

to two jack-o-lanterns
and a harvest-themed display

with no more than
one skeleton."

[nervous chuckle]

It is all in
the neighborhood handbook.

I don't remember seeing
any neighborhood handbook...

Look it up.
[snap]

[yelps]

We'll give you one hour
before we alert
the authorities.

What authorities?

[both] Us.
[laughing]

- What now?
- What does that mean?

- What're we gonna do?
- Can I see that?

It does expressly forbid

excessive decorating
in the front yard.

But it doesn't say anything

about decorating
in the back yard!

So, what did you think?

I think you're
holding out on us.

Yeah. Mummies in love
weren't scary at all.

I just don't think you can
handle the real deal.

Try us.

Ok, but don't say
I didn't warn you.

Teen Vampire Stakeout.

That sounds perfect!

Yeah, perfect.

Even better.

- What do you think?
- Pretty scary, right?

It is. But I still feel like
we're missing something.

We are.
Where's Teresa?

[creaking]

Teresa?

- [growls]
- [all screaming]

[all laughing]

- It wasn't that scary.
- It was to me.

You know I hate
being in small spaces.

But you weren't the one
in the small space.

I was next to it.

I know what we're missing.
Ken, fire up the fog.

Oooh.
Now that's scary.

I'm getting scared
just standing here.

[all laughing]

[groans]

Fog is so scary.

You never know what might
pop out of it.

- [yells]
- [all gasping]

Chapter , subheading four,
paragraph :

"No residents shall create a
fog effect that compromises
another resident's property."

- But...
- No buts!

And no fog!

[yelling]

[Mrs. Reardon]
We'll be watching you!

[sighs]
Turn off the fog machine, Ken.

We can't do anything
that annoys the Reardons?

And since
everything annoys them,

I guess that means
no epic spooky house.

Hang on.
The handbook didn't say anything

about decorating
the inside of your house.

[man on TV]
Heed this warning.

The count awaits.

A true vampire, he fears garlic
and has no reflection.

With his dark magic

he transforms into
a blood-thirsty bat.

[screams]

- Hey!
- Sorry.

- Are you OK, Chels?
- Absolutely.

I'm gonna get a snack.

Watching movies
that definitely aren't scary

always makes me hungry.

- Anyone else want popcorn?
- Yes, please.

I'm all out, thanks to you.

Don't bother pausing
it while I'm gone.

Don't be silly, Dr. Wiggles.

I'm sure all of those teenagers
who got turned into vampires

will be just fine.

[scary movie noises]

No, we cannot stay here
until the movie's over.

As much as I want to.

[creepy laughter]

- Quit clowning around.
- You're so funny.

- Did I scare you?
- Hey, Chelsea, how's it going?

Great!
Vampires aren't scary at all.

That's good.

Yep. No bats here.

- Bats?
- But speaking of bats,

come out into the foyer
in about two minutes.

I want to show you something.

- Hey, where's my juice?
- You didn't ask for juice.

Oh, right.

Uh, can I have some juice?

Ok, Theresa, what did
you want us to see?

Something really spooky.
Check it out.

[whirring]

Huh?
What's happening?

[bat screeching]

[panting]
[yelps]

- Chelsea, what happened?
- Barbie! She's a vampire!

[owl hooting]

See? I'm fine.

No teeth marks anywhere.

[sighs]
Sorry to scare you, Chelsea.

The bats were just
a lighting effect I set up.

It's OK.
I wasn't really scared.

- Mmm-hmm.
- Well, a little.

But now that I've seen how it
works I'm not scared anymore.

Good. Maybe it's time
to knock off

the monster movie marathon
for the night.

Yeah, it's getting late.

I was about to call it,
anyhow.

[groans]
No fair.

How come
I have to go to bed?

I'm not the one
who was scared.

- Whoa!
- [both giggling]

It's a really
cool effect, Teresa.

Thanks. Bad timing that
it was bats when your sisters

were watching a vampire movie.

Just to be safe
maybe I should do something

a little less high tech.
[exclaims]

Like rubber spiders.

[yelps]

Spiders.
It had to be spiders.

Oh, I'm sorry, Barbie.

I forgot about your
arachnophobia.

Fear of spiders.

[exhales]
Oh, no. It's not that.

Well, it is actually.

But you just gave me
a great idea.

All this stuff is fun,

but to really make an impact,

we should embrace
what scares us most.

Like Ken
and his fear of clowns.

Pff. Clowns?
That was years ago.

Why would I still be
afraid of clowns?

[yelps]

Ouch.

Because clowns are creepy.

I mean, I used to think so.
[shudders]

It's no big.
We all have things
we're afraid of.

Like Renee
and enclosed spaces,

or Nikki and things
that smell bad.

I had a bad encounter
with a fish once.

But what about Teresa?

She can't sleep
without a night light.

I can.
If it's not dark out.

The point is, if we really want
to be spooky...

Let's start with what scares us.

[snoring]

[door creaks]

[screams]

Stacie, stop. It's only me.

Oh, Chelsea,
what're you doing?

Are you sure that Barbie
isn't a vampire?

Barbie isn't a vampire.
Back me up, Skipper.

[snoring]

Skipper!

[gasps]
I didn't do it!

Barbie isn't a vampire, right?

Of course not.
Vampires aren't real.

Just go back to sleep.

[mumbling]
[snoring]

How can she sleep
at a time like this?

- Come on.
- Where are we going?

To find Barbie so she can prove
that she isn't a vampire.

Then we can all get some sleep.

But what if she turns us
into vampires?

Then we won't need to sleep.

[snoring]
[mumbling]

Being dressed like
a clown isn't so bad.

Kinda itchy, but not bad.

[Renee]
Hey! Help! Let me out!

Whoa!

[chuckles]
It's really hot in there.

When did all this get here?

It's just Barbie's
haunted house stuff.

Nothing to do
with being a vampire.

Anyone want a snack?
I made garlic knots!

- No thanks.
- [gags] Too garlicky for me.

[gasps]
They don't like garlic?

They're all vampires!

Why would a vampire make
garlic knots for other vampires?

Hey, guys, check this out.

See? No reflection.

- Sweet.
- Cool.

- [door slams]
- [gasps]

- Um, what was that?!
- I don't know.

[panting]
Did you see that?

I didn't!
That's the problem!

They don't have reflections!

Tell me there's
another explanation.

I will.
As soon as I think of one.

These smart mirror effects
are great, Teresa.

- Thanks.
- But don't you think
it's a little dark in here?

Haunted houses
are supposed to be dark.

[screaming]

[chuckles] Not afraid
of clowns anymore, huh?

I checked around
for the source of the footsteps

but couldn't find anything.

Maybe it was the wind?
What?

Isn't that what you're supposed
to say when you hear footsteps

while trapped in a haunted house
the night before Halloween?

[chuckles] Relax.

The dream house
isn't haunted, and we're not...

-[span style="bodyStyle"] [alarm blaring]
- [computer voice]
Lockdown mode activated.[/i]

Trapped?

No one is leaving tonight.

[owl hooting]

- Where is everyone?
- Who said that?

- Ow!
- [gasps]

- Who said that?
- Ugh!

[all screaming]

What's happening?

What's this light?

Ken?
What're you doing down there?

Just clowning around.
[chuckles]

What's with the lights?

Somehow the lockdown mode
got activated.

I'll fix it.
Dream house, return to normal.

- [beeping]
- [computer voice]
Access denied.

Lockdown mode cannot
be deactivated at this time.

What were you saying
about not being trapped?

I don't get it.
The lockdown mode
doesn't just trigger itself.

That'll keep them inside.

OK, but how do we change
them back from being vampires?

You don't have
a plan for that?

Me? I didn't even see
the end of the movie.

They did turn back at the end,
didn't they?

I think it might be time
to call mom and dad.

Um, do you have a phone?

I'm a six year old in pajamas.

What do you think?

- [clears throat]
- [thunder crashes]

[both screaming]

The neighborhood handbook
clearly states

that bright lights cannot be
left on after : pm.

What are you doing
out of bed, anyway?

Aren't you children?

Yes, we are, and we could
really use some...

Trey, don't go!

We need help.

[groans]

Do I even wanna know?

[sighs]
You wouldn't believe us, anyway.

Oh, yeah?
Try me.

[door knob jiggles]

Come on, dream house.
Let us out!

- [beeping]
- [computer voice]
Access denied.

- Access denied.
- Every door is locked.

Even the puppy door.

[growling]

Does this room feel
smaller to anyone else?

The lockdown must be blocking
cell signals and WIFI.

- I can't get anything.
- So what do we do now?

Remember our moving day?

The whole squirrel incident
when it chewed our wires

and we couldn't
get into our own house?

After that, Mom put in
a manual reset panel

just in case we ever had
another lockout situation.

I knew the code, but to find
the panel we'd have to...

Go through the entire
haunted house?

The one we just set up
with all the stuff
that scares us the most?

I know, I know,
but it's the only way.

I have no idea
where the panel is

so we have to look everywhere.

Are you in?

OK.
Time to face our fears.

- [thunder crashes]
- [all gasping]

- [creepy laughter]
- [exhales]

[gasps]

[grunting]

Oh... Oh, yay! I made it!

- Way to go!
- Yes!

You're telling me
that you have six vampires

trapped inside your house?

- Yep.
- And one of them is Barbie?

- Yes.
- That is... amazing!

- You mean you believe us?
- Are you kidding me?

Vampires are a serious thr*at.

I've been telling people
that for years.

Come with me.
I have exactly what we need.

[both yelp]

Garlic is in place.

What next?

One sun lamp ready to rock.

I knew my delicate complexion
would come in handy one day.

Ugh!

Oh!

Why does it have to be so dark?

Thanks, guys.

Vampire melters on!

[both shriek]

[laughs]

Whew.
Nothing going on in here.

- Hey!
- [screams]

Sorry.

Guess maybe I am
still afraid of clowns.

[growling]

[Trey] Hold still.
I can't focus.

Perfect. As soon as
those vampires come out

I'll be streaming live
to the world!

I thought you said we were going
to turn them back

so that they wouldn't be
vampires anymore.

Oh, yeah.
Right.

Totally.
After.

We've looked everywhere.

[exclaims]
Not everywhere.

- Your closet?
- It's the perfect place.

Why didn't I think
of it sooner?

- Come on.
- All of us?

Isn't it a really small,
tiny enclosed space?

It's bigger than you think.

That's why I need
all of us.

If you're OK with it.

Oh... OK.

But can I at least
not go first?

[yelps]

- It's pretty dark.
- And crowded.

[all exclaiming]

- Wow.
- Nice.

The power for the closet
is on its own circuit.

That's why I'm sure mom
put the reset panel
in here somewhere.

Leave no shoe unturned.

Except for that one.
[laughs]

A cake box?

[yelps]

[yelps]

[both screaming]

Guys! Guys!
It's just Ken.

Sorry, guys.

In the box.
It's a clown mask.

Who keeps a clown mask
in a cake box?

I didn't put that there,
but I bet I know who did.

- Oh...
- Thank goodness.

- There it is.
- You found it.

[computer voice]
Reset code accepted.

Normal dream house function
successfully restored.

Mission accomplished.

[all cheering]

- Go, Barbie!
- Success!

[yawning]

Oh, no. They figured out
how to reset the system.

What do we do now?

Roll cameras.

For internet glory!

[all yelping]

Get back, immortal fiends!

Trey, what are you doing?

Why aren't you melting already?

Melting?

Chelsea, Stacie, is that you?

[both] Yes.

Don't tell me you
still think I'm a vampire.

Not just you,
all of you.

But you're not,
are you?

No, we're really,
really not.

The last time I trust you two.
One time.

One time it
is gonna be vampires,
and you're gonna be so ready.

[overlapping chatter]

[yawns]

What in the world?

You were right, Skipper.

That movie we watched,
it was too scary.

It put crazy thoughts
in our heads.

It made me think Barbie
was a vampire.

I'm sorry, Barbie.
I guess I am a baby.

Actually, I think
you're incredibly brave.

You thought we were
a real thr*at,

but you put the house
on lockdown

and set all of this up
to try and save us.

You were trying
to save us, right?

Hang on. You two thought Barbie
and her friends were vampires,

and you locked me
in there with them?

Oops.

[Barbie] Fortunately,
since we weren't vampires,

everything worked out OK.

The Halloween Haunted
Dreamhouse was a huge success.

Trick or treaters
really liked our theme.

Face your fear and get a treat.

Or skip your fear
and still get a treat.

No shame either way.

We all have fears,
and most of the time

we get over them
when we're ready.
