Two kids on a farm find a scarecrow with a magic spell, and they use it. The scarecrow does whatever they order it to. At first it's great, their new servant puts up an entire fence that they were supposed to build. But they find that it has its drawbacks when they order it to make a baseball dugout and it tears apart the new fence for wood. Things get serious when one of them accidentally orders it to kill.moreless

    This episode is seriously creepy. Could you imagine a scarecrow like that? The scarecrow in the movie was perfect. It's the creepiest scarecrow I've ever seen. I like how they used lighting and music to capture the tone of this one. This is why this series should have kept going...it's too bad the ratings went down when they did.

  • One of the better plots

    A boy and a girl who are grounded find a scarecrow which turns out to do the hard work for them. I know it may be stupid but I am terrified of the scarecrow it is just so scary looking it is like a skeleton with rotting flesh dressed in dark black farm clothing. It was quite freeky to hear the thing growl in the night as he chased down the uncle in the tractor while the kids thought that seperating the dragons would help it only teleported the scarecrow to go after them. Freaky it gives me chills to look at any scarecrow after that episode. (100% better than goosebumps night of the living scarecrows)moreless
