Everyone on Irving Street knows Jack O'Lantern, but have you met his little brother, Jeff? Jeff has kind eyes, a friendly smile, and a "boo" that sounds more sweet than spooky. No matter how hard he tries, he just can't seem to scare anyone. When it looks like there won't be enough candy for everyone, Jeff sets off on a mission to save the candy bowl—and prove that you don't have to be the scariest pumpkin on the porch to be a hero.

I cast the spell that brings to life this playground of the night.
Here my phantoms come—but not to spook or fright.
They’re here because they want to laugh, to frolic and be merry.
They’re here because they need to take a break from being scary.
When all the trick-or-treating is done and children are tucked in, ghosts are drawn to one special place: the Haunted Playground! Ruled by Rex Magnificus, ghosts arrive not to haunt but to play. But will the appearance of two human children interrupt their revelry?
