Plot

Before the events of the film and the Christmas special, Wolf tells the gang about a legendary treasure belonging to a villainous shoebill stork named Reginald E. Scary, saying that anyone who takes it would be haunted for the rest of their lives. They don't believe him, however, as he has been known to prank them on Halloween by scaring them. He promises not to scare them, as they head to Scary's mansion. While there, they are continually scared by automated contraptions Scary left to frighten thieves away. They manage to find the treasure, an amulet, and steal it, but not before Wolf plays one more prank on them.

Back at their hideout, Wolf starts going crazy, hearing music that no one else does, and having a strange dream. Thinking that he has to return the amulet to appease Scary, Wolf rallies the crew to go back to the mansion. They head to the mansion, when the gang is kidnapped, leading to Wolf returning the amulet. It's soon revealed that the others pranked Wolf after he did the same to them. However, when Wolf takes the amulet again, he disintegrates, before revealing that he knew about the prank and manipulated them to use it against them. Furious by how he pranked them twice, the gang lunge at Wolf and attack him.
