is a derivative of "Scaredy Pants".

Script:

 * French Narrator: Halloween is no different under the waves. Pirates, skeletons, and sea monsters. [laughs evilly] Ohh, sorry. Everyone having fun. Well, almost everyone. [Penny is washing the dishes in the Blacksmith Mansion kitchen. The door creaks open, and Penny jumps in surprise]
 * Penny: Huh? Who's there? [door creaks open some more as Penny goes back to washing some dishes. Turns around and three pieces of paper spelling out "boo" turn on the ordering turntable. Penny speeds up the cleaning of the dishes until he finishes]
 * Penny: Okay, Emmy, the dishes are done, I'm leaving! [tries running out, but Emmy stops him in his tracks]
 * Emmy: Hold on. Don't you want to hear my annual scary story?
 * Penny: No thank you, Emmy. Uhh, does it have monsters in it?
 * Emmy: Aye, the worst monster of them all.
 * Penny: Uhh... no. [opens the door then turns around] Is it a true story?
 * Emmy: True as the deep blue.
 * Penny: Okay, maybe just a little.
 * Emmy: Have a seat, me boy. [runs while saying "hot, hot, hot when carrying the campfire" sits on a log. Emmy puts a campfire in the middle of them] Every year on Halloween night, the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost descends on Rosemary-Land, in a pirate ship, just like this. [holds up a Krabby Patty] Only bigger!
 * Penny: Excuse me, did his ship look like a Krabby Patty?
 * Emmy: Like I was saying, the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost swoops down and starts stealing people's souls. [holds up a pickle]
 * Penny: Do souls look like pickles?
 * Emmy: Aye, as a matter of fact, they do. And he puts them where you can never get them... in his soul bag. [drops the pickle into a bag that has the words "Blacksmith Mansion" crossed out and the word "soul" written above it. Emmy laughs evilly as Samson appears behind Penny in a pirate suit]
 * Samson: I've come for your pickle. [Penny jumps up screaming]
 * Emmy: Ah, ScaredyCat gets easier to scare every year! [Samson takes his costume off as Penny, in a barrel, sees the pirate was Samson]
 * Penny: Humph, Samson!
 * Emmy: Nothing like a good ghost story, eh, me boy? Hope you're not too scared to come to me party tonight, Penny ScaredyCat! [laughs while walking out]
 * Samson: [walks up behind Penny] Steal your soul. [Penny jumps out of the Blacksmith Mansion screaming and beings to walk home. As he is walking home, he sees a jack-o-lantern and then he walks up to a kid in a cowboy costume]
 * Kid: Twick-ow-tweat! [Penny screams and runs away. The kid’s parents walk up next to their son]
 * Mother: It's okay, son. That's just Penny ScaredyCat. [Penny is walking home until Miranda drives up and honks the horn, sending Penny screaming and jumping to hold onto the street light]
 * Miranda: Happy Halloween, ScaredyCat. [drives off laughing]
 * Penny: The name's SquarePants. It's SquarePants! [Cut later at his house, inside a pumpkin. Penny and Amaya are inside of it] I don't get it, Amaya. Every Halloween, no matter how hard I try, everybody scares me.
 * Amaya: Meow.
 * Penny: [carves his pumpkin from the inside] Well, I'm sick of it. [Penny comes out] No more ScaredyCat! [notices his pumpkin and screams while running into his closet]
 * Katie: Penny!
 * Penny: Amaya, it's Katie! I'm going to scare him! It's my turn. [opens the door and tries to scare Katie] Rawr! [Katie has some funny glasses on]
 * Katie: Hiya, Penny! [Penny screams. Katie takes his glasses off] Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.
 * Penny: Why can't I be frightening for once? Where's my chance?
 * Katie: Well, if you want to be scary, you got to need a good costume. [later, Penny walks out of his closet with a big, white sheet on]
 * Penny: What do you think?
 * Katie: Great! You're going as my trick-or-treat bag!
 * Penny: No, no! I'm the ghost of the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost!
 * Katie: Uhh... something's missing. I know! [Katie runs inside Penny's closet. A tree falls down but then gets sawed down by Katie. Katie comes out with a pair of clogs] Step into these babies, Hans. [Penny steps into the clogs] Terrifying.
 * Penny: I don't know, Katie. [doorbell rings]
 * Katie: Come on, Penny. It's little kids! Little kids are easy to scare! [door opens]
 * Kids: Trick-or-treat!
 * Penny: [jumps out and tries to scare the kids like he did Katie] Rawr-rawr! [kids laugh]
 * Kid #1: Look, it's the haunted mattress!
 * Penny: Okay, okay, here's your candy.
 * Kid #1: No, please, that was enough of a treat, thank you. [kids walk away laughing]
 * Penny: I don't get it, Katie.
 * Katie: Penny, look at my new paper ghost! [Katie holds scissors in his right hand a has a puppet on his left hand] Oooh, scary.
 * Penny: That is it, Katie!
 * Katie: What's it?
 * Penny: What's the difference between that ghost and me? [Katie concentrates]
 * Katie: No, no, no wait. Don't tell me. [concentrates more] D-don't tell me. Don't tell me! Don't tell me! I can do this. Don't tell me! Don't tell me! Okay, tell me.
 * Penny: I have a square head and a real ghost has a round one. All we have to do is make my head round and boo, I'm scary! [Penny is now sitting on a chair in his bathroom. Katie has goggles on]
 * Katie: Okay, are you ready?
 * Penny: [shows paper ghost] Remember, like this. [Penny is a round ghost] What do you think?
 * Katie: Perfect. Now that's scary! [Katie puts on his funny glasses] Let's go scare somebody. [Penny runs down a street trying to scare people]
 * Penny: Oooh... I'm the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost!
 * Katie: Oooh... I don't know who I am! [man opens door]
 * Penny: Rawr! Rawr! I'm the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost!
 * Katie: Oooh, I'm the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost's best friend! [both run off laughing]
 * Man: Hey, don't you kids want your candy? [both jump behind some coral in the shape of a skeleton head]
 * Katie: Oh, boy, that was something. Your costume really packs a punch.
 * Penny: Do you think?
 * Katie: Oh, no question! You scared the barnacles off that guy!
 * Penny: Who should we scare next?
 * Katie: There's a whole party just full of people down at the Blacksmith Mansion and the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost is going to show up uninvited. [kids laughing] Oh! Here comes someone now! [Penny jumps out to scare the kids from earlier]
 * Penny: Rawr! Rawr! I'm the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost! [Penny & Katie run off laughing again]
 * Kid #2: Wasn't that the Haunted Mattress?
 * Kid #3: I guess he's been demoted to a haunted sleeping bag! [kids laugh.]
 * [Later, Emmy is bobbing for apples with his daughter Benny, who is dressed up as Frankenstein's bride. Emmy successfully bobs an apple, but accidentally swallows it. Emmy chokes on an apple]
 * Benny: Oh, dad, you're embarrassing me again! [cries and runs off. Emmy spits out the apple which shoots past Samson and Frostina, breaking a window off-screen in the process]
 * Frostina: Howdy, Samson, I mean, Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost. Great party, huh?
 * Samson: What are you supposed to be?
 * Frostina: Why, I'm a pet goldfish in a bowl!
 * Samson: I don't get it. [Penny and Katie are on the roof of the Blacksmith Mansion. Penny is tied up with some rope which Katie will lower him in with. Penny opens a door on the roof to peek through to look at the party]
 * Katie: Are you ready, Penny? [thumbs up from Penny]
 * Penny: Okay, Katie, kill the lights!
 * [lights go off. As soon as this happens, everybody begins panicking and running around screaming. Penny is lowered in appearing with a scary look. Katie begins talking through a megaphone to scare everyone. Emmy even hides in the apple barrel]
 * Katie: Wa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! I am the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost! Booga, booga, booga, booga! Give me your souls! [a jellyfish comes up behind Katie and zaps him in the butt.] Huh? [Katie stands there a few seconds. He screams and starts running around in circles] Ow! Ow!
 * Penny: Whoa! [flails around in and around, then dangles upside down, revealing his pants]
 * Kid #3: [notices Penny's pants] Hey, that's no Balloon Ghost, that's Penny!
 * Frostina: Penny?
 * Samson: Penny. [everyone laughs]
 * Penny: [still dangling] Help! Help!
 * Katie: [using megaphone] I am not Penny. Those are my street clothes! [thunder appears and the front doors are open]
 * Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost: Enough! [everyone gasps as green smoke comes into the Blacksmith Mansion. A green figure appears, it turns out to be the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost. He does an evil laugh making everyone scream in terror.]
 * Emmy: It's the real Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost! [he faints]
 * Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost: You bet your white lily livers I'm the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost. And I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. I'm going to steal your souls. [everyone screams] Quiet! [breathes out flames to burn them] You had it coming, you little crybabies. Every year, people dressing up like me. [Samson takes his costume off and whistles nonchalantly] Turning the Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost name in a laughingstock. But that's not the reason I'm taking your souls. [pointing at Penny, who is hanging upside down] No, this is the straw that broke the camel's back. Out of all the Balloon Ghost costumes I've seen, yours is the most insulting.
 * Penny: Do you mean I'm not scary?
 * Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost: You? Scary?! [cackles, then cuts the rope holding Penny, and he falls to the floor] Let me tell you about scary, kid. There's all kinds of scary things in the world. Spiders are scary, uhh, I'm scary. You... you're not scary. Okay, let's get this over with. [flies back to the partygoers to steal their souls and evilly laughs in their faces again which makes everyone scream in terror again, one fish even shaking his head begging for mercy]
 * Frostina: Penny!
 * Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost: First, I gotta get rid of this stupid costume. [removes Penny's ghost costume...then stares at Penny in horror. The Balloon-Like Bedsheet Ghost flies out of the Blacksmith Mansion screaming. Penny is now shown as skinless with just a brain, eyes, and a mouth with the lower half of his body]
 * Penny: Hey, what do you know? I scared him! [laughs. Everyone else, except Katie and himself, runs out screaming] It worked, Katie. I scared everybody!
 * Katie: Yeah, I guess it was your pink hat.
 * Penny: Pink hat? Oh, that's not a hat. That's my brain.
 * Katie: Ohh... [he runs away screaming. fade to black]
 * Penny: [off-screen] Don't worry, it grows back!
