Synopsis[]
A television commercial appears as "Ghost Trappers", starring Chip Fligginton, tip-toeing quietly to hunt for ghosts. Mistakenly, he almost catches the female Sapling Scout with a trapping net. The girl protested that she is not one of the ghosts, because she is selling cookies for the orphanage. Chip persuaded that one of the people will catch a ghost with a video. Lil Rob seriously accepts his challenge.
At night, the Grinders arrived at an abandoned mansion. Interuppted, Jay Jay shrieks that Meaty made a smell. Goggles digs in his backpack, searching for the neutraliser that looks like a vacuum, but the machine electrocuted the Grinders. Jack Knife reminded himself that the house was exactly like his grandmother's. Lil Rob interrupted next as he creates a story of Jack Knife's grandmother's house that is haunted. Meaty interrupts last as he makes a flatulence. Lil Rob madly contents of Meaty's ending.
The Grinders enter the abandoned mansion, with their head stacked. Meaty then cuts off, which the Grinders collasped. As the Grinders sneak to the hallways, their hear the sounds of the children singing. Lil Rob spotted the chorus children, telling them to go home (the chorus children are reminded that they live in an orphanage).
Rob grabs Goggles neutralizer, before they head to another set of hallways. Lil Rob ponders that the mansion is haunted, but Spitball was capture by a fake ghost. Rob attacks, but the neutralizer sucks Meaty in and electrocuted him. Jay Jay pretends to hear his mother, but was caught that he is proven that his lips move. Lil Rob commands that they will never leave until they capture the ghost, but they are interrupted by a demonic voice. Jack Knife leads to the wrong direction, saying "I'll be right back" (as the first classic mistake of the horror), as he was captured by the fake ghost. Rob tries to rescue Jack Knife by vacuuming the ghost, but it captures Meaty and electrocutes him again. Emo Crys decides to "contact the dead".
The quad, especially Meaty, are located in a dusty fortune room, which Emo Crys shouts to the dead, but lead Meaty as his stomach grumbles. Emo Crys was being possessed by a demonic spirit that his head was turning, and he is crawling up to the wall and made a sinister cackle. Jay Jay frantically leaves the room, but accidentally swipe his hand to the candle and the wall move which sends Jay Jay to another location. Goggles examined the trick of the candle, and switched to the wall that Jay jay was on. Jay Jay nervously warned Goggles that he cannot turn the switch on, but Goggles ignores him, leading Jay Jay to another room.
Jay Jay was stuck on the sofa, stuffed with old trinket and food. Meaty eats the foul lollipop. Then Jay Jay falls off the portrait and on the floating carpet, screaming. He flew to the toilet, which flushing Jay Jay away. Lil' Rob, Goggles, and Meaty escapes from the bathroom. The trio decides to stare each other, but Lil Rob protested that it's going to be alright (as a second classic mistake), which sends Goggles and Meaty falling down to the floor trap. Lil Rob is the only character left.
Lil Rob angrily persuades Chip Fligginton that he will capture the ghost, but did not look forward as he was hit by a wall. Lil Rob halts and sees Goggles with black long hair and a demonic voice, coming after Lil Rob. The horror-looking Goggles uses a screwdriver to get out of the television box. Rob backs off and hits a vampire Emo Crys, Were-Meaty, and the Mummy Jay Jay. Rob screams and flees back. Rob spots a masked Jack Knife contently, but holds a hockey stick with a chainsaw inside.
