Ep 1. The Haunted Mask, Pt. 1

  • October 27, 1995

When Carly Beth goes shopping for Halloween costumes with her friend Sabrina, she feels unsatisfied with all the choices in the store. Finally, she finds a creepy old mask and decides it's perfect. Sabrina thinks otherwise and warns Carly Beth not to buy it because it looks too scary. Carly Beth disregards her friend's warning and buys the mask, which has a strange smell and feels very real.

Carly Beth wears the mask to scare her little brother, but the mask seems to have a life of its own. It molds itself to her face and won't come off. Carly Beth is desperate to remove the mask, but it won't budge. She goes to the store where she bought it to ask for help, but the old shopkeeper tells her that the mask is cursed and might never come off.

As Carly Beth tries to find a way to remove the mask, she realizes that the mask is turning her into a cruel and vicious person. She starts tormenting her brother and classmates, hurting them physically and emotionally. Carly Beth is scared of the monster she is becoming, but the mask has a hold on her that she can't shake off.

In a desperate attempt to remove the mask, Carly Beth goes to a Halloween party wearing it. There, she meets a boy named Chuck, who also has a mask stuck to his face. Chuck tells Carly Beth that the only way to remove the masks is to find the shopkeeper who sold them and ask for help.

Carly Beth and Chuck go on a journey to find the shopkeeper, but their masks make them unwelcome in most places. They eventually find the shopkeeper's house and confront him about the masks. The shopkeeper tells them that the masks were made by a mad scientist who wanted to create the ultimate Halloween mask that could instill fear in people.

The shopkeeper agrees to help Carly Beth and Chuck remove the masks, but only if they promise to never reveal his identity to anyone. He gives them a potion that should remove the curse, but warns them that the masks will try to resist and fight back.

Carly Beth and Chuck drink the potion and instantly feel its effects. The masks start wriggling and twisting, trying to stay on their faces. But eventually, the masks come off, and Carly Beth sees her true face in the mirror. She is relieved to be free of the cursed mask but traumatized by the monster she became while wearing it.

The episode ends with Carly Beth throwing the mask in the garbage and vowing never to wear a Halloween mask again.
