School season 5 episode 2, titled "Halloween Hazing", revolves around the high school's traditional Halloween party. The episode starts with the students getting ready for the big night, with everyone excited to show off their costumes. Amidst the preparations, a rumor spreads that reveals a past Halloween party where a student was allegedly bullied and hazed by his seniors. The rumor further suggests that the student later transferred to a different school due to the trauma.
The management of the school takes the rumor seriously and decides to take action to prevent such an incident from occurring again. They call an emergency meeting with the student council and inform them that they need to change the tradition of the Halloween party. The student council members suggest that they can still have a Halloween party, but they will include some games and activities that don't involve hazings.
However, not everyone is willing to give up on the traditional way of celebrating Halloween. A group of seniors, led by the popular and influential student, Mark, refuse to follow the new guidelines. Mark thinks that the new rules are just for show and that everyone still wants to continue with the traditional way of celebrating Halloween.
As the party begins, the students are unsure of what to do, and there is tension in the air. The student council has arranged various activities like bobbing for apples, pumpkin carving, and playing horror movie trivia. Despite the new guidelines, Mark and his group of friends find ways to involve hazings in these activities. They make the bobbing for apples tougher by putting hot chili peppers in the water and give consequences like shaving someone's head or stealing their clothes if they don't answer the trivia questions correctly.
Things escalate when Mark and his friends start taking it too far with the hazings, and the victim is none other than Eric, a nerdy and socially awkward student. Eric is chosen by Mark to perform a dare which involves him going into the school's attic and finding a specific object within a time limit. Eric reluctantly agrees, not realizing the danger that awaits him.
Eric goes to the attic with a flashlight and starts searching for the object, but he soon realizes that he is not alone. Someone, or something, is following him. As he turned around, he saw a ghostly figure staring at him, the ghost of a former student who was hazed and bullied on the night of a Halloween party just like this one. Eric tries to run back to the party, but the ghostly figure keeps following him. The episode ends with Eric stumbling into the party, terrified and pleading for help.
