Episode Summary

In an attempt to beat Dash in a haunted house decorating contest, Danny "borrows" the enchanted sword of the Spirit of Halloween, the Fright Knight! When the evil, ghostly knight comes to retrieve his magic saber, he decides to stick around long enough to turn the real world into his own stormy realm of terror. Danny Phantom has other ideas, however, and tries to banish the Fright Knight back to the Ghost Zone.

    I love this Halloween special! hide show

    Is it just me, or are Halloween episodes always so good? I loved everything about this episode. Danny's haunted house was absolutely adorable, and I loved the final scene where Danny grabs Sam just as shes about to fly up in teh air and he grabs the pipes under the wood. The plot was great, as well, and I loved how, once someone was struck with the sword, they were transported into the place they worst feared (Tucker's was hilarious). In the end, Danny, of course, was successful and makes everything right. This was certainly a great holiday special episode.

    This was a very cool eppie! hide show

    Wow, this one was cool! I learned Danny is a talented artist (on top of everything else- he rocks!) The action really was exciting! Plus, the animation was amazing! And I liked the poem at the end- "To cease the fight, to end the fear, sheathe the sword in pumkin near!" And there was a D/S moment! Yay! It was a fantastic episode (again)! The last scene (where Danny sheathed the sword "in pumpkin near") was awesome! And I'm proud of Danny for being honest in the end, even though he didn't win... I'd like to see what Danny does for revenge! (But that's another story) Awesome ep!

    When forced to create a Halloween room for detention, Danny 'borrows' the Fright Knight's sword to make his room more scary. hide show

    This episode was great! It was interesting to see the Halloween rooms Danny and Dash created. I didn't like the bet they made though. I mean, come on, eating Dash's underwear? What in the world? That was disgusting. The Fright Night was cool. I thought it was weird how he could only be defeated by having his sword stuck in a pumpkin. I especially liked the parts where, when struck with the sword, Tucker and Mr. Lancer were transported to a different dimension in which their true fears become reality. That was awesome! I wonder what Danny and Sam's fears would have been.

View All

  • In one scene, an ax swings at Danny and cuts his costume, but in the next scene, his costume is suddenly repaired. []
  • Danny shouldn’t have been able to pull the Soul Shredder from the pumpkin since he was in human mode and the Soul Shredder is a ghostly object and humans are supposed to phase through ghostly objects in the Ghost Zone. []
More Trivia

  • The name of this episode is a play-on with words with the Fright Knight and it's a frightening night on Halloween. []

    Danny: (Getting stronger, and glowing white) To cease the Storm, to end the Fear, the sword must sheath in pumpkin near.

  • Sam: (After Danny puts the Soul Shredder in a pumpkin) Everything is being sucked back into the Ghost Zone! It's working! (Sam starts rising up) Ahhhh!
    Danny: Sam! (Pulls her back down) []
  • Dash: (To Danny, after he loses the bet and is forced to eat Dash's underwear) Bon appe-tighty whitey, loser! []

    The armor of the Fright Knight bares resemblance to the Marvel Comics villain, Magneto. []
