Lizzie (Hilary Duff) would love to be "Dungeon Mistress Vampira" at her middle school's Halloween Fright Night celebration, but her rival, Kate (Ashlie Brillault), has already assigned herself that role. In fact, Kate has taken over managing the event, riding roughshod over everyone's feelings. When she goes a step too far by dissing Miranda's (Lalaine) traditional honoring of the Mexican Day of the Dead, it is clearly time for Kate to be taught a lesson. The question: are those hideous ghoulies, ghosties, and beasties who begin tormenting Kate really Lizzie and her friends in costume -- or are they the genuine articles?
