From Fear to Eternity is a mini-TV special that is complementary to "Scaris: City of Frights". Most countries had the premier of the latter TV special followed up by From Fear to Eternity, but in the USA it did not air. Being complementary to "Scaris: City of Frights", "From Fear to Eternity" also heavily promotes the Scaris: City of Frights doll assortment.

Summary

Clawdeen Wolf and the ghouls have had a major blast exploring the wonderful 'City Of Frights'. Clawdeen found out that her fashion book came alive the more she wrote fashion designs in it. But their fun has just begun when they took separate planes. Frankie took Clawdeen's bag by accident and the book came to life and ran away. After Frankie found out about the book, Frankie and the ghouls travel around the world—from Scaris to Fangladesh to the Himalayas to Haunt Kong to the Scarehara to Transylvania to Doombai—to get it back before Clawdeen finds out about the book missing. Even getting swallowed whole by a giant sea serpent in the process. They get it back inside the sea monster's stomach and they found out that the book was teaching a lesson to them. The lesson was that chasing the book led them to many places, and that they need to enjoy the trips. They then escape by tickling the sea monster to make it spit them out.

References

• The title From Fear to Eternity is a play on the 1951 novel From Here to Eternity and its better known 1953 movie adaption.
• The title card features the characters posed akin to the 1969 Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! cast in that show's title cards.
• Frankie describes Cleo's tactic to get the Tiki's help as "an offer that they... uhm... could refuse". This is a reference to the famous line "I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse," from the 1972 movie The Godfather.

Errors

Difference between the UK movie (above) and the DVD movie (below, where Cleo and Deuce can be seen with the Scaris Outfits on.

• The background of Haunt Kong features a large wall likely meant to be the Great Wall of China. In actuality, the Great Wall is on the other side of the country.
• The Tiki make a boat for Cleo's group to get home with, but "Scaris: City of Frights" established there to be an airport on the island, which seems like a simpler option for all involved to get the trio off Skull Shores.
• At the Monster High pool, Cleo and Deuce are dressed in their 'Basic' outfits the moment the hot air balloon crashes, but in the next shot, they are in their Scaris: City of Frights outfits.

Other

• The intro-scene in the classroom is taken directly from "Why Do Ghouls Fall in Love?", the two exceptions being the characters sitting in the row being zoomed in on and the animaton on Mr. Rotter.
