6The story follows Phineas, Ferb, and his friends on Halloween night. In a true Phineas-and-Ferb fashion, Ferb is given, as they think, the coolest costume in history by being transformed by genetic engineering into a 200-pound green werewolf. Unfortunately, [[TheMindIsAPlaythingOfTheBody Ferb loses his mind shortly after Trick-or-Treating is over]] and begins to attack. Using [[OriginalCharacter Jessie's]] cleverness, Candace's strength, and [[spoiler:Perry's venom]], the gang tries to turn Ferb back to normal.

8Its reviews have been almost universally positive, some even considering it one of the best fics ever written for the franchise.
