Synopsis
Jonathan Winters stars as a security guard working late at Walt Disney Productions Studios on Halloween night. He is accompanied by his dog, Peanuts. The security guard, bitter about working on Halloween night, stumbles upon the prop room at the studio and begins acting out scenes with various props. Eventually, he finds a crystal ball containing a talking jack-o'-lantern (also played by Winters). Jack-o'-lantern is hiding out from Halloween because it is no longer scary like it was back in "the old days". The dialogue between the security guard and the jack-o'-lantern is interspersed with Halloween-related Disney cartoons that jack-o' shows the security guard in his crystal ball.
