Sonic the Hedgehog has always wanted to spend Hallowe'en at the Haunted Zone, so he's finally got round to it. Tails has joined him, but he doesn't think it's a particularly good idea. In fact, he thinks it's a complete waste of time. People say that once a year, on Hallowe'en, "ghosties and goblins" come out to play. Tails recounts the tale of two ghost hunters who came to the Zone one year. They were searching a mine shaft, since the Zone used to have a huge reserve of gold. One of the explorers turned round to ask for a torch and his friend was gone! Tails obviously thought his story would have more of an effect, so the fox turns to Sonic to find he's vanished! Tails panics until Sonic appears behind him, playing a practical joke.
