Flint invents a monster son and Sam faces candy-fueled haunted house chaos. What could go wrong?
There is some monstrous Halloween fun brewing in Swallow Falls! Flint accidentally creates his own Frankenstein- like monster. The Monster quickly becomes attached to Flint, and Flint has to learn to live with his new "son". Things get even more frightful when Mayor Shelbourne buys up ALL the town's candy at Halloween, and promises to give it to any kid who can make it through his super-scary haunted house. Is Candy-obsessed Sam up to the challenge?

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This TV special aired five years after the theatrical sequel flopped, keeping the franchise alive through sheer Halloween desperation.
The Frankenstein parallels are blatant, but the 'monster as misunderstood child' twist directly riffs on Young Frankenstein's softer take on the classic.
