* HypocriticalHumor: Jack makes a remark regarding Tucker being TooOldToTrickOrTreat:
-->'''Jack:''' Isn’t he a little old to be walking around in public in a stupid costume?



* NailsOnABlackboard: Lancer’s biggest fear is having his nails scraped down a chalkboard.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Danny steals the nightmare-creating sword of the literal Spirit of Halloween and incurs the wrath of said spirit, all just to win a haunted house contest. Although, it’s kind of justified considering the punishment if he loses.



* PillarOfLight: Danny stabs the sword into the floor and it sends up a pillar of ghostly light that meets an “ecto-storm” brewing in the sky above the school.
* RhymingTitle
* ScaredOfWhatsBehindYou: Danny pulling the sword out of the pumpkin awakens an army of skeletons. They bow and Danny thinks they’re doing so to honor him, but really they’re doing it for Fright Knight who has appeared behind Danny.
