| + | Haunted by the lack of gossip in the school, Spectra searches for news for her blog. Angered by her punishment for plagiarising an essay, Toralei tells her a rumour about the werewolves of the school having were-fleas. As the rumour sends the werewolf populace into chaos, Spectra observes what she has caused. Draculaura begins to experience hauntings, with her locker acting strange, finding herself talking back to Mr Rotter and someone changing her hairstyle. |

| − | has the Hall Moanitor of the Present add it in, much to Spectra's annoyance, before Revenant leaves for other matters. |
||
| + | Clawdeen confronts Spectra about her post, and urges her to find truthful material. However, she flees when Draculaura, Twyla, Rochelle and Sirena ask her about the hauntings. They follow her to the attic, and watch as she unlocks a door and disappear into it. Still following her the ghouls find themselves on a yacht, piloted by the daughter of the Grim Reaper, River Styxx. With her father away in Las Plagues, River has the boat to herself, even installing confetti cannons onto it. Spectra appears and is shocked by their presence, and explains about the Ghost World, were most ghosts live due to the stigma of their hauntings. River explains that the boat is taking them to Haunted High, Spectra's old school. |
||
| − | Porter is able to create a distraction to allow Spectra and the others to flee on River's boat, but the Hall Moanitors give pursuit, only to discover that the Detention Chains have no effect on solids like Clawdeen, Draculaura, Twyla, and Rochelle. Although they make it back to Monster High safely, one Detention Chain follows them through and captures Spectra when they let their guard down, dragging her back into the Ghost World to imprison in Haunted High, despite their attempts to save her. With Revenant's new rule about no non-ghosts allowed in effect, the only option is to turn the ghouls into ghosts so they can return to Haunted High and get Spectra back. Luckily, Twyla knows just how to do it. |
||
| + | River asks what brings them here, and Draculaura explains her hauntings. River finds that impossible, as there hasn't been a haunting since the notorious Red Lady, a ghost who could move easily between the Ghost and Monster (solid) worlds, until she was apprehended and imprisoned to work off her crimes. The boat falls prey to a pirate ship, the Salty Spectre, led by the ghost pirate Vandala Doubloons, and her pet cuttlefish Aye. However, Vandala becomes seasick and fears the "solids," residents of the monster world. Dressing in reaper robes, the ghouls enter the school (although the doors must be opened instead of phased through). |
||
| − | Back at Haunted High, Spectra is brought into Revenant's office, where Revenant confronts her about Monster High and the other Ghost World residents who are enrolled there. Despite Spectra's assurances that all monsters are welcome at Monster High, Revenant still punishes her with working off an assignment of 10,000 essays, then doing it again. When Spectra worries about her blog, Revenant shows little sympathy for her plight. Before she goes to suffer her fate, Spectra asks about Draculaura's haunting, but Revenant fiercely denies it, even showing some nervousness about there not being another haunting in the Monster World before Spectra brings up the Red Lady legend, which Revenant agrees with before Spectra departs to her fate. However, after Spectra leaves, Revenant, interested in the number of students from the Ghost World enrolled in Monster High, begins concocting a plan to send her Hall Moanitors into the Monster World to increase Haunted High's attendance... |
||
| + | Spectra reminisces in her old school, but is shocked to see the number of students draped in detention chains, handed out by Principal Revenant, and the three Hall Moanitors. They go to the creeperteria to find out the perpetrator of Draculaura's hauntings. There they meet Spectra's old best friend, Kiyomi Haunterly, daughter of the Noppera-Bo, the faceless ghost, who has gone from the shyest to most popular ghoul in school. Draculaura seems to be familiar with Kiyomi, but she rebuffs this and flies away. Their attention is then drawn to Porter "Paintergeist" Geist, son of a poltergeist, who is vandalising the creeperteria with ghost paint, which evaporates quickly. The hall moanitors catch him in the act, and shackle both him and Spectra, who thought to find a scoop in the ordeal. When Spectra pleads she is not a student at this school Revenant has the rules changed, and unveils her friends as solids. They flee, pursued by the Moanitors, who discover the chains do not work on solids. They safely arrive back at Monster High, but Spectra is chained and dragged back to Haunted High. |
||
| − | As for Spectra, she does her best to work on blog posts while having a good talk with Porter, who is puzzled by how Spectra writes for fun, but they soon seem to develop a friendly relationship before Spectra leaves him to his own interests. |
||
| + | To get back into the ghost world Twyla takes them to the Boogey Mansion, and look for the right Boogey sand to turn them into ghosts so they can move around the ghost world undetected. In the process Rochelle is accidentally turned into a blob monster, before Clawdeen sneezes the right powder over them and they turn into ghosts, although floating is harder then it looks. |
||
| − | Back at the Monster World, Twyla brings the others to the Boogey Mansion to show them her father's Boogey Sand that he uses for his work. While they look for the bottle that will turn the ghouls, sans Sirena, into ghosts, back in the Ghost World, the Hall Moanitors begin their assault on Monster High to drag as many of the Ghost World students back to Haunted High, wrapped in Detention Chains. Twyla finally finds the right bottle, and after Clawdeen's werewolf allergies sneezes the sand over them, Clawdeen, Draculaura, Twyla, and Rochelle, have been turned into ghosts, just until they use the sand that will revert them back to their original forms. Sirena is ready to head back to Haunted High at once, but the others still need time to adapt to their new, ghostly forms. |
||
| − | Back at Haunted High, Porter and Spectra continue to build their relationship as they find themselves unable to leave while bound by their Detention Chains, and Porter requests Spectra's help with a feeling he has about Revenant and her being up to something sinister, especially with all the rules and detentions. Meanwhile, the Hall Moanitors' Detention Chains make their way into Monster High and begin to round up all the Ghost World students, including Operetta, [[Johnny Spirit]], [[Scarah Screams/cartoon|Scarah Screams]], and others. Back at Haunted High, Porter and Spectra go to the library to look for information on Revenant's past, while Sirena and the others arrive, and quickly are spotted by Kiyomi and Vandala when they notice the new ghosts struggling with their new forms. While Kiyomi and Vandala help teach Clawdeen, Draculaura, Twyla, and Rochelle how to control their ghost forms, Porter and Spectra come up empty on any information regarding Revenant. As they continue to ponder over how if there is no information on Revenant, that proves she's up to something, Spectra is horrified when she sees many of her classmates from Monster High, including Operetta, Johnny, and Scarah, being welcomed into Haunted High by Revenant. Spectra comes down to see them after Revenant's welcome speech, and promises to help get them home to Monster High. Back with the others, Vandala and Kiyomi finish with training them, and they head off to find Spectra. |
||
| − | As for Spectra, after overhearing some gossip from another ghost and yelling at him about it, Spectra realizes exactly what Clawdeen meant by how gossip can be hurtful, and vows to end posting gossip on her blog and only post truthful news. She is soon reunited with the others, and she tells them about what happened to Operetta, Johnny, Scarah, and the other ghost students from Monster High. As they watch as the Hall Moanitors contiune to persecute ghosts for more silly and pointless rules, much to their own amusement, the Hall Moanitors catch Kiyomi and threaten to punish her for another silly rule, when Draculaura and the others try to protect her. This results in the Moanitors summoning Revenant, who upon seeing how the solids became ghosts, demands to know how they did it. When Porter tries to intervene, Revenant grants the Moanitors permission to shackle Sirena, Twyla, Rochelle, Draculaura, and Clawdeen, in Detention Chains as well. Kiyomi sacrifices herself to protect Dracualura from the first set from the Hall Moanitor of the Present, and tells them to run, with Porter trying to help them out as the Moanitors give pursuit. Porter is able to lead the ghouls into the safety of a secret room, where when Spectra and the others see the amazing artwork inside that he did on his own, Spectra is amazed by it, unable to comprehend that Porter could paint something so beautiful. They also find some antique furniture that he found when he first came across the room, and when the mention of the Boogey Sand is brought up, Draculaura realizes that Kiyomi is the ghost haunting her. Kiyomi confesses and reveals how she was so shy, but upon seeing Monster High and the students there with their freaky flaws, it helped her to overcome her shyness and why she is so popular now at Haunted High. Now she feels remorseful over how it was her fault Spectra was given Detention Chains. Draculaura and the others assure her that it's not her fault, it's Revenant's, and Spectra decides to go talk to her. Porter asks her not to do it, fearful of losing her, but Spectra assures him she'll be fine, and leaves. Porter goes after her after noticing the looks he's getting from the others due to how he has warmed up to Spectra in the time she's been imprisoned at Haunted High. |
||
| + | Dragged into Revenants office Spectra asks about the hauntings, which the principal denies. She is given essays as her punishment, which she takes in her stride as she loves writing, something which greatly puzzles Porter. Spectra and Porter begin to bond, and when Porter questions all the rules and detentions, he and Spectra decide to investigate. Meanwhile, the hall Moanitors move into Monster High and begin to seize the ghost students at the school, such as Operetta, Scarah and Johnny. Re-arriving at Haunted High the ghouls meet Vandala and Kiyomi, who help them to control their ghost forms. Rochelle especially enjoys the freedom with this form, and dives into the school pool. |
||
| − | Spectra eavesdrops on Revenant as she voices her frustration at how if she could know the secret to turning monsters into ghosts, she could double Haunted High's attendence. The Hall Moanitor of the Present worries how the other students would react, but Revenant assures him she has ways of dealing with that. As Spectra writes everything down, she's soon discovered by the Hall Moanitor of the Future, and brought in to Revenant's office. At that point, Revenant reveals herself to have dozens of Detention Chains attached to her, having been passing them onto the students to work off so she does not have to. Luckily for Spectra, before Revenant can pass anymore of her chains onto her, Porter is able to provide a distraction to give Spectra time to escape, before he is personally wrapped in more Detention Chains by Revenant herself. Revenant offers Porter a deal: Tell her where the Monster High students are hiding, and she might undo some of those Detention Chains on him. Only after she tightens them a bit does Porter agree to work out a compromise... |
||
| + | Having found no information about Revenant in the library Spectra and Porter return to the school main hall, and are horrified to find numerous Monster High students chained and being greeted to Haunted High by Revenant. |
||
| − | Back in Porter's hiding place, Kiyomi reveals how she could travel to Monster High to see certain things, similar to the Red Lady, and haunt monsters as well. However, there's a catch: Kiyomi can't risk revealing the Ghost World to the Monster World as many ghosts fear the monsters are out to get them. Although Draculaura assures her it will take some time, that's one thing they don't have as Spectra returns, out of breath, but before she can explain everything, Revenant and the Hall Moanitors find them, and shackle everyone there in Detention Chains. Revenant reveals that Porter sold them out, and proves it as she brings him in to reveal all his chains are gone, further breaking Spectra's spirit as the Hall Moanitors cackle at her to further taunt her. Porter tries to apologize, but Spectra will have none of it. |
||
| − | Revenant then puts Haunted High on lockdown, and spills the beans to the students that monsters have invaded the school, further spreading paranoia to the student body, and then declaring her intentions to ensure that the monsters pay for their threats against the Ghost World. As for Draculaura and the others, Revenant offers a deal to them as well: Give up the secret to what turned them into ghosts, and she'll reduce their Detention Chains. The ghouls refuse, but Revenant will get what she wants, one way or another. That's when she discovers Clawdeen and Spectra's intentions to publicize the truth on her, and confiscates Clawdeen's notebook. From that, she discovers the Boogey Sand, and sends the Hall Moanitors to acquire it, confiscating River's father's skiff as well to travel to the Monster World. |
||
| − | With the fate of both of the Ghost and Monster Worlds now sealed with Revenant's flunkies on their way to acquire the Boogey Sand, Spectra knows who the full blame for this hopeless situation falls on: Porter "Paintergeist" Geiss. |
||
| + | Overhearing ghost students talk about how solids want to haunt them Spectra becomes outraged, labelling the talk as stupid gossip. Spectra realizes this is the exact sort of gossip she spreads, and how it is hurtful. The moanitors behaviour escalates, and they begin to give out chains for seemingly no reason at all. When this happens to Kiyimo the ghouls go to protect her, bringing them to Revenant's attention. Seeing how the ghouls have become ghosts Revenant demands to know how they did so, and when they refuse give the Moanitors permission to shackle them. Kiyomi protects Draculaura and Porter takes them to a safe room only he knows of. Spectra admires the artwork, and Draculaura comes to the realisation that Kiyomi is the one who has been spying on her. Kiyomi feels bad for this, and when Spectra announces her intention to confront Revenant, Porter pleads with her not too, drawing the attention of the others. |
||
| − | The ghosts go to confront Porter, and as he tries to explain himself, the ghosts will have none of it, with Sirena even having Vandala's pet, Aye, attack him. He's finally able to reveal that he stole the key Revenant uses on the Detention Chains, and transfers all of the ghouls' chains to himself as punishment for his actions. This convinces the other ghouls to forgive him immediately. Shocked by this show of sacrifice, Spectra is uncertain of what to say, but Porter entrusts her with the key to help free Operetta and the others, and stop Revenant for good. He even offers her the old furniture he found, revealing he restored it to working order as another gift to Spectra to show how sorry he is. |
||
| − | Meanwhile, at the Boogey Mansion, the Hall Moanitors go through several of the Boogey Sands before finding the ghost one and contact Revenant to let her know they've found it. As she assigns them one more job, back at Haunted High, Spectra and the others get to work transferring all of the Detention Chains from their fellow Monster High students onto Porter to hold onto while ensuring that Revenant never finds out about the key being missing. As more and more Detention Chains are put on Porter, he can only look back with pride at his art piece of freedom from the shackles of the Detention Chains. |
||
| − | With all the Monster High students free, Sirena leads them to Vandala's ship for transport back to Mosnter High, much to everyone's celebration. Before they leave, Spectra goes to say thanks to Porter one more time, but upon seeing all the Detention Chains weighing him down, although worried about him, she and Porter exchange a few more words before they hear Revenant make an announcement about a gathering in the main lobby of the school. Deeply worried by what Revenant means, Spectra goes to investigate, despite Porter's pleas to leave while she still can. When Spectra arrives, Revenant speaks to the gathered Haunted High students, concealing the truth about the theft of the Boogey Sand as being of her own creation, and using it on the Monster High students to turn them into ghosts, and thus give them their well-deserved punishment for making the Haunted High students live in fear of them. While the Haunted High students cheer at this blatant lie of revenge against the Monster World, Spectra, fed up with all the lies and gossip, heads off to stop the Hall Moanitors, some way, some how. However, she returns to get some last minute time with Porter before she heads off. |
||
| + | Spectra eavesdrops on Revenants plan to get more students stuck at Haunted High, and is discovered by one of the hall moanitors. Revenant questions Spectra, until Porter appears and distracts her, giving Spectra a chance to escape, although it means Porter is heavily chained. She forces him to reveal their hiding place by tightening his chains, and the Moanitors capture all the ghouls, causing Spectra to be angry at Porter selling them out. However, Porter reveals he stole the keys to the chains, and transfers all the chains to himself. While Porter had stolen something, as had Revenant, the note book Clawdeen was using to document their journey to give to Spectra for her blog, to use as a true story instead of gossip. From this she discovers the Boogey Sand, and the moanitors take off on River's yacht to find it. Now freed, the ghouls pursue them on Vandala's ship. |
||
| − | With time running out, as Vandala heads for Monster High, Spectra reveals Revenant's plan for the Monster High student body, then realizes herself that Revenant is the Red Lady of legend. The chains she has been putting on the Haunted High students were the ones she was given when punished for her crimes centuries ago. While everyone else heads for Monster High to stop the Hall Moanitors, Spectra returns to the Haunted High library and finds the book with the information she was looking for. As Spectra and Porter go after Revenant, the others put their hopes in Kiyomi to open a window to get them to Monster High before the Hall Moanitors do. Kiyomi succeeds, and the ghouls return to Monster High well ahead of the Hall Moanitors, who arrive in Monster High's main lobby, causing panic amongst the students there, including [[Manny Taur/cartoon|Manny Taur]], [[Deuce Gorgon/cartoon|Deuce Gorgon]], [[Iris Clops/cartoon|Iris Clops]], and others. |
||
| − | Vandala and the others arrive just as the Hall Moanitors open fire with River's skiff's confetti cannon, with Manny and Iris being the first victims to be turned into ghosts and shackled with Detention Chains. Before they can fire on Lagoona and Gil and make them ghosts and shackle them with Detention Chains as well, Vandala grabs their attention and steals the Boogey Sand, forcing the Hall Moanitors to go after them to retrieve it. As Revenant furiously asks what else could go wrong, her worst fears are answered as Spectra reveals Revenant's true identity as being the legendary Red Lady to all of Haunted High. As Haunted High's students are in disbelief at learning the truth, Revenant appears, retrieves the key to her chains, and reveals her true identity, much to the shock of the students. Her plans in ruins, Revenant decides to give Spectra all of her chains as punishment for Spectra preventing her from regaining her freedom. |
||
| − | Back at Monster High, the other ghouls try to outrun the Hall Moanitors, but they're too fast in River's skiff. Kiyomi has had enough, and prepares to open a window to send the Hall Moanitors back to the Ghost World. Seeing she can't do it alone, the other ghouls lend their ghost strength to Kiyomi, and succeed at opening the window wide enough to let the skiff through, much to the shock of the Hall Moanitors. |
||
| + | Spectra stays behind however, to hear Revenant's announcement, and her intention to use the boogey sand in solids as revenge for making the ghosts fear them. Spectra seeks solace in the library and suddenly realises Revenant is the Red Lady of Legend, as she sends the hall Moanitors to do her work and never leaves the building. |
||
| − | Back in Haunted High, Revenant prepares to transfer all of her chains to Spectra, but as she does, River's skiff emerges in the path of the chains, and Revenant only ends up tying up her own flunkies along with River's skiff. Although not what she intended on, Revenant is still free of her own shackles, and prepares to return to the Monster World to resume her crimes. Her victorious cackles are soon silenced when she finds the window refuses to allow her through. Revenant can't believe it, and worse, she finds that she is being re-shackled in more chains. She thinks that someone else is doing it to her, but Spectra reveals that it is Revenant's own fault. Every wrongful detention she gave out, every unjust action, only served to further punish the Red Lady with more and more chains. Revenant is on the verge of tears at being unable to comprehend how her own actions have led to her inevitable downfall, but Spectra makes it clear that gossip can only led to bad things, and deep down, Revenant herself knew that what she was doing was wrong. |
||
| + | Kiyomi opens a portal and they beat the Moanitors to MH, who begin to unleash boogey sand via confetti cannons. Vandala boards their ship however, and retrieves the sand. Back at HH, Spectra reveals that Revenant is the Red Lady. Taking this in her stride Revenant seizes the key, sends all the chains flying at Spectra. |
||
| − | As Spectra makes a solemn vow to end spreading gossip for good, Revenant also sees the error of her ways, and releases the Haunted High students of their Detention Chains, taking them all back, including the ones she wrapped around Porter, River's skiff, and the Hall Moanitors. Afterwards, she asks for the students' forgiveness and allowing her to remain as their principal as she works off her chains she brought upon herself for her own mistakes. She dispels the key to her chains, and watches as this first act of repentance causes the first of her chains to vanish due to her good deed, but Revenant knows it will take a long time for her to work off all of them and earn her freedom, but at least she is on the right path now. |
||
| + | Chased by the Moanitors Kiyomi attempts to open a portal to send them back to the ghost world, and with the help of huge others and their ghost powers, is successful. The yacht appears as Revenant's send her chains flying, and they entangle the boat and moanitors. Although not what she intended Revenant opens a portal and attempts to enter the monster world. In disbelief that she can't, Revenant blames someone for keeping her there, but Spectra tells her that every unjust detention she gave out only served to wrap her in more chains as it warranted more punishment. Seeing the error of her ways Revenant repents, and takes back the chains, her first good act. Porter congratulates Spectra for her heroism, and the ghost students see how gossip is wrong. Inspired by this Spectra decides it's time for the students to get to know each other, and they throw a party at Monster High. Revenant works to get rid of her chains, and the werecats catch sea-fleas aboard Vandala's ship. |
||
| − | As the students cheer Revenant on, showing that they forgive her and are with her on her road to redemption, Porter congratulates Spectra on her heroism. Soon after, when some of the ghost students ask about the gossip on Monster High being wrong, Spectra decides it's time for Monster High and Haunted High to get to know each other much better than before. |
||
| − | Soon after, both schools are enjoying the company of one another. Revenant does whatever good deeds she can to work off her chains, such as serving drinks to the guests, Vandala helps Frankie, Cleo, and Ghoulia attempt to sound like pirates while Toralei and her flunkies get their comeuppance when Vandala reveals they've got sea-fleas. The Hall Moanitors also attempt to work off their debts to society as they swab the deck of River's skiff, and River works with Holt manning the DJ station. Soon, Clawdeen and the others are returned to their normal selves, and the party continues as Spectra and Porter add a little graffiti of their newfound, and romantic, relationship on the wall behind them. |

Revision as of 04:47, 10 August 2015
Lurk what’s waiting for the Monster High ghouls when they bring their killer fashion to the howlways of the spooktacular Haunted High! When the ghouls of Monster High follow Spectra Vondergest one day, they discover a creeperific Ghost World with an all-spirit school. But their scary-cute student bodies are hardly welcome with the very strict Principal Revenant and she punishes Spectra with frightful detention chains that prevent her from re-joining Monster High. Now, it’s up to the imperfectly perfect friends to take on ghostly forms in order to save one of their own from disappearing forever! "Haunted" is the eleventh big Monster High TV special and thirteenth overall. It is the first TV special of 2015. It premiered Spring 2015, and was released to video on March 24. It is part of Volume 5.
Story
Haunted by the lack of gossip in the school, Spectra searches for news for her blog. Angered by her punishment for plagiarising an essay, Toralei tells her a rumour about the werewolves of the school having were-fleas. As the rumour sends the werewolf populace into chaos, Spectra observes what she has caused. Draculaura begins to experience hauntings, with her locker acting strange, finding herself talking back to Mr Rotter and someone changing her hairstyle.
Clawdeen confronts Spectra about her post, and urges her to find truthful material. However, she flees when Draculaura, Twyla, Rochelle and Sirena ask her about the hauntings. They follow her to the attic, and watch as she unlocks a door and disappear into it. Still following her the ghouls find themselves on a yacht, piloted by the daughter of the Grim Reaper, River Styxx. With her father away in Las Plagues, River has the boat to herself, even installing confetti cannons onto it. Spectra appears and is shocked by their presence, and explains about the Ghost World, were most ghosts live due to the stigma of their hauntings. River explains that the boat is taking them to Haunted High, Spectra's old school.
River asks what brings them here, and Draculaura explains her hauntings. River finds that impossible, as there hasn't been a haunting since the notorious Red Lady, a ghost who could move easily between the Ghost and Monster (solid) worlds, until she was apprehended and imprisoned to work off her crimes. The boat falls prey to a pirate ship, the Salty Spectre, led by the ghost pirate Vandala Doubloons, and her pet cuttlefish Aye. However, Vandala becomes seasick and fears the "solids," residents of the monster world. Dressing in reaper robes, the ghouls enter the school (although the doors must be opened instead of phased through).
Spectra reminisces in her old school, but is shocked to see the number of students draped in detention chains, handed out by Principal Revenant, and the three Hall Moanitors. They go to the creeperteria to find out the perpetrator of Draculaura's hauntings. There they meet Spectra's old best friend, Kiyomi Haunterly, daughter of the Noppera-Bo, the faceless ghost, who has gone from the shyest to most popular ghoul in school. Draculaura seems to be familiar with Kiyomi, but she rebuffs this and flies away. Their attention is then drawn to Porter "Paintergeist" Geist, son of a poltergeist, who is vandalising the creeperteria with ghost paint, which evaporates quickly. The hall moanitors catch him in the act, and shackle both him and Spectra, who thought to find a scoop in the ordeal. When Spectra pleads she is not a student at this school Revenant has the rules changed, and unveils her friends as solids. They flee, pursued by the Moanitors, who discover the chains do not work on solids. They safely arrive back at Monster High, but Spectra is chained and dragged back to Haunted High.
To get back into the ghost world Twyla takes them to the Boogey Mansion, and look for the right Boogey sand to turn them into ghosts so they can move around the ghost world undetected. In the process Rochelle is accidentally turned into a blob monster, before Clawdeen sneezes the right powder over them and they turn into ghosts, although floating is harder then it looks.
Dragged into Revenants office Spectra asks about the hauntings, which the principal denies. She is given essays as her punishment, which she takes in her stride as she loves writing, something which greatly puzzles Porter. Spectra and Porter begin to bond, and when Porter questions all the rules and detentions, he and Spectra decide to investigate. Meanwhile, the hall Moanitors move into Monster High and begin to seize the ghost students at the school, such as Operetta, Scarah and Johnny. Re-arriving at Haunted High the ghouls meet Vandala and Kiyomi, who help them to control their ghost forms. Rochelle especially enjoys the freedom with this form, and dives into the school pool.
Having found no information about Revenant in the library Spectra and Porter return to the school main hall, and are horrified to find numerous Monster High students chained and being greeted to Haunted High by Revenant.
Overhearing ghost students talk about how solids want to haunt them Spectra becomes outraged, labelling the talk as stupid gossip. Spectra realizes this is the exact sort of gossip she spreads, and how it is hurtful. The moanitors behaviour escalates, and they begin to give out chains for seemingly no reason at all. When this happens to Kiyimo the ghouls go to protect her, bringing them to Revenant's attention. Seeing how the ghouls have become ghosts Revenant demands to know how they did so, and when they refuse give the Moanitors permission to shackle them. Kiyomi protects Draculaura and Porter takes them to a safe room only he knows of. Spectra admires the artwork, and Draculaura comes to the realisation that Kiyomi is the one who has been spying on her. Kiyomi feels bad for this, and when Spectra announces her intention to confront Revenant, Porter pleads with her not too, drawing the attention of the others.
Spectra eavesdrops on Revenants plan to get more students stuck at Haunted High, and is discovered by one of the hall moanitors. Revenant questions Spectra, until Porter appears and distracts her, giving Spectra a chance to escape, although it means Porter is heavily chained. She forces him to reveal their hiding place by tightening his chains, and the Moanitors capture all the ghouls, causing Spectra to be angry at Porter selling them out.

Spectra seeks solace in the library and suddenly realises Revenant is the Red Lady of Legend, as she sends the hall Moanitors to do her work and never leaves the building.

Spectra and Porter paint the boat to announce their new relationship, and the movie concludes with the hall moanitors cleaning up and playing with the boogey sand.

Notes
Errors
