Summary[]
It's Halloween, and Pinky dresses up as a mad scientist with a black swirly dress, and Mr. Guinea Pig is her assistant Igor, dressed in green and has a big eye. Tyler hides in the closet and doesn't want to show his costume, but he steps out dressed up as a Goo Goo Fruity banana. Daddy thought he liked Goo Goo Fruities, but he said he did when he was two. He tells Tyler that it's too late to get a new costume, but he'll try to work something out. This gives Pinky a Halloween story idea. So Pinky, Tyler, and Mr. Guinea Pig travel to the Story Box.
The story takes place on Halloween, and Tyler is out trick or treating as a banana, still thinking he is too cute to be terrifying. At Count Vampula's house, Count comments how scary Daffinee and Nicholas look, who are a witch and ghost respectively and give them both a treat. Tyler arrives and Count admires how adorable he is, which peeves him. Count suggests that he could make a scary noise, so he practices one, and Count says although the noise was pretty scary, he still looks cute. His next visit is the Mummy Lady and he is unsuccessful at scaring her as well. She suggests that if Tyler wants to be scary, then he should try a scary walk like she does.
After that, Tyler goes to Jerry Scary Wolf's house and manages to creep him out with the walk and sound, but he still finds Tyler's costume not terrifying. Jerry states that he should visit the Mad Scientist's castle where she has stuff that can make anybody look scary. When he arrives at the castle, Mr. Guinea Pig (still dressed as Igor) greets him and shows him to the Mad Scientist (which is still Pinky). She also finds him cute and Tyler relentlessly wishes he could look terrifying, so Pinky tries to plan what she should do: put an extra-large gooey pizza on his head, put a Christmas tree also on his head, but then she can't think of a third option.
Pinky decides to think big and gets an idea, she'll make Tyler look terrifying herself. She lures Tyler into the "turn anything scary room" and sits him down on the "turn anything scary chair". Then outside the room, Mr. Guinea Pig fiddles with some knobs and levers, and then Pinky pulls a lever down beside the door, which causes green flashing effects in the room. After it finishes, Tyler comes out with a blue mask and fangs, as well as bat wings. Everyone in Great Big City was so terrified by his costume, he won the award for the most terrifying costume in the city. After the story, Tyler wants to make his costume look scary, and that's when Daddy arrives, also scaring the three, dressed up as a banana as well, also with a blue eye mask and teeth and wings. He puts those things on Tyler's costume, and now he is ready to go trick or treating.
