The premise
Phil, Melissa, Mitch, Mary, and Vinnie are high school friends, who unwittingly raise the dead on Halloween night. Once the dead have returned, Pitchford Cove will never be the same again....or will it?
Horror Vault's take
When a group of high school friends stumbles upon an ancient ritual on Halloween night, they accidentally unleash something far bigger than a seasonal scare — the dead themselves begin to walk the streets of Pitchford Cove. What starts as a night of costumes and thrills quickly spirals into supernatural mayhem that puts the whole town at risk. This 1985 TV movie blends horror and humor with a generous helping of 80s charm, making it a uniquely festive experience. Expect catchy music, colorful characters, and monsters with a surprisingly warm heart.
