New Ghoul @ School

New Ghoul at School is a Monster High television special.

Description
From the 2010 Press Release:

Animated Special Featuring Music by “American Idol” Allison Iraheta:

Mattel will develop a 30-minute animated special with music from Allison Iraheta, season eight “American Idol” star, whose pop-goth style is a natural fit for the brand. Iraheta’s songs “Scars” and “Friday I’ll Be Over U” touch on the challenges of “fitting in,” a recurring theme within the Monster High property. The special is set to air this fall on a variety of mediums including online, broadcast and mobile. (Fall 2010)

Summary
The special starts with an extended title sequence: the scenes are taken from the webisodes as well as the special and the rap part of the Fright Song is included, ending with the normal Monster High logo and the title 'New Ghoul @ School'.

It starts with Frankie Stein walking in to her first day at Monster High - everything is new to her. She tries to introduce herself in front of everybody, but she sees that the crowd is totally uninterested and keep on walking. Then, she started to worry about having no friends - being 'a loner'.

She enters the classroom, and sees Deuce Gorgon, but Frankie gets tripped over by Slow-Moe and picks up her books. However, Cleo De Nile is entering with Ghoulia Yelps, and trips because Frankie is in the doorway. Cleo is not impressed, and asks Ghoulia to put Frankie in the lowest popularity rank.

Lou Zarr is teaching a boring lesson, with only Ghoulia interested. Frankie gets bored, and turns to the Oracle - an advice column in her magazine. Suddenly, Frankie sees Draculaura, who notices the magazine and sits with Frankie. They talk quickly until the end of the lesson, in which Ghoulia finishes the sum on the blackboard.

Draculaura and Frankie come across some zombies, and end up cornered off, until Clawdeen Wolf lets them in. Frankie befriends her, and they leave after the zombies are gone. Frankie considers this good, but she felt that she needed to find a crew. After trying Chess club, Swim Team and Community Service, she finds it harder than ever to fit in.

Suddenly, she considers trying for the Fear Squad, but she finds out that Cleo is head of the team. Cleo explains the rules and standards she expects, performing the routine to the Fright Song. Then, Frankie performs well, but her foot flies off, landing in Ghoulia's milkshake drink and covering Cleo in mess. Frankie sobs, going to the swimming pool, where she meets Lagoona Blue, who tells her to be herself and to stop trying so hard.

Frankie then imagines herself at the Dawn of the Dance, performing 'Friday I'll Be Over U' and being famous, but then Deuce comes over again, and Frankie gets a crush on him - also meeting Heath Burns, whom Deuce turns to stone. Then Clawdeen and Draculaura reveal that Cleo wants to see Frankie again, and convince her to be the 'dream you', but Lagoona overlooks, disappointed.

The next morning, Frankie wakes up to a magazine. It shows Lagoona telling her to be herself, but a magazine photo about a 'teenage lunchlady' frightens Frankie. She is greeted by Clawdeen and Draculaura, who take her to Cleo. She starts the interview with quick-fire questions, but tension builds up when she asks about a boyfriend. Frankie pretends to have Deuce as a boyfriend, only discovering that he is really Cleo's boyfriend.

Frankie goes back to the swimming pool, about to talk to Lagoona. But this time, Lagoona knows about Frankie's decision, and ignores her. She goes to Clawdeen and Draculaura to apologise and tells them about a plan to make it up to Cleo.

Draculaura and Clawdeen take Cleo to her, only to see Frankie standing with Deuce. She explains that Deuce is not her boyfriend, and shows Cleo a concert featuring Justin Biter that she organized, and (wearing the Dawn of the Dance outfits), they dance the night away, with Cleo giving Frankie another chance but puts her on "Fearleading Probation" and Frankie's school days turn out to be better than expected.

The special ends with the girls in a picture, which goes into the "fearbook" diary. The credits roll with clips of the special, and a backing track of Allison Iraheta's Friday I'll Be Over U.
