Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.
< Growing Up Creepie‎ | Recap‎ | S1‎ | E07

One dark and stormy night, Creepie and her brothers are watching , a zombie horror movie. When Caroleena called her to remind her about it being a school night, when Creepie asked her for just a few more minutes. Eventually, the goth girl fell asleep, the next day in Dr. Pappas's class, he demonstrated about the wasp and Creepie just learned about the karaoke festival that's being plan and she was advised to come. When the recess bell rang, everyone left except for Budge, who got hypnotized by the wasp who escape.

Meanwhile, Chris-Alice was preparing for karaoke night, even selling hats, and she inquires if Creepie can sing and to preform a sound test. - But Gnat decides to sing instead of his sister. Which resulted with an annoying sound wave coming from the speakers.

Lunch break, in the cafeteria the Middlington Middle School students are enjoying their lunch, until Budge came in and stole all of the maple syrup for his lunch. Minutes later, he asked to buy one of the hats from Chris-Alice and didn't pay for the $2.99 hat (The cheery girl assumes that Budge will pay her later and tells him so).

Later on that day, Creepie was getting stuff from her locker and was preparing to go home, when the zombies are keeping inviting her to "join us" in the karaoke. She and Gnat follows their peers down the basement cellar, where they found the missing maple syrups, cocoons, and what their friends are up to: They were using the syrup to cook up an concoction to feed the Mother Wasp. The Creechur siblings then barges in the chanting, inquiring what's going on. Which was a rather unwise choice since Creepie's former friends decided to chase her, and she was determined to find a way to free them from their slavery. No matter where Creepie and Gnat goes, the middle school halls are filled with wasp zombies, chatting "Creepie!" Until they go to the cafeteria hall where the karaoke festival will be held, they were about to evacuate and take Chris-Alice with them, but it turns out that she's also a wasp zombie. Soon the cafeteria became over riddle with zombies and they surround the goth girl.

The wasp queen backs Gnat into the stage were the microphone is, where Gnat's load buzzing knocks her out a bit. This gave Creepie the idea to sing a duet with her brother, the wasp and her nest were killed, and her friends back to normal...But they don't have any recollections of the incident. Though since everyone is in the cafeteria hall, the karaoke party began to commence.

It turns out that Creepie just dream the whole thing.

Or Is It?
