Description[]
Toralei plays cat and mouse games as Frankie and friends fright to have their photo featured in the Gory Gazette.
Summary[]
Frankie takes her friends into the corn maze at Monster High to get the best time through it. Her friends aren't as thrilled about the activity as she is until Gil points out that the winners will have their photo placed in the Gory Gazette. Now interested, the group is interrupted by the werecats, who hold the current record of thirty minutes. The trio mocks the group for even thinking they can beat them, but the group is not intimidated.
Inside the maze, the group discusses which route to take when Heath offers a round of popcorn. He picks a corncob and roasts it with his hair, but the popcorn carries the flames over to map Frankie's holding. With no map, not only is it unlikely the group will beat the current record, it is also uncertain they'll ever get out of the maze at all. The situation starts looking better when they find Manny Taur also walking around in the maze. Because he is a minotaur, his fellow students assume he can get them out of the maze easily and go after him. However, the werecats, who have followed the group to prevent them from breaking their record, throw corn on the path, causing a flock of crows to gather to eat the corn and block the path. Luckily for the group, Manny's footprints are still visible and they can still follow him.
Elsewhere, the werecats unleash three demonic canines to hunt the group, which has just caught up with Manny. Manny is crying to himself and, when asked why, confesses that he is the only one in his whole family who cannot find his way out of a maze. Also, he's terrified of the creatures lurking in the maze. Just then, the canines catch up with the group, and Manny runs for his life right through the corn walls out of the maze. The group quickly takes the path he cleared and leaves the maze, setting a new record of twenty-nine minutes. While the group has their picture taken, the canines within the maze turn on the werecats.
