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.

    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.moreless

    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!moreless

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

    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.moreless

    This was such a great episode! I love how he encounters a new enemy and is able to defeat him. The Fright Knight sent chills up and down my spine and the ep was so creative! This definitely goes down on my list of faves. Need 100 words, so.............
