* TokenHeroicOrc: One lone green-skinned horror tries to warn Lizzy and Luke that they are not safe in [=HorrorLand=] and begs them to get out while they still can. His motives turn out to be somewhat less than heroic; he's just bitter that he wasn't chosen to host the SadisticGameShow run by the horrors, although he still helps the Morris family with their escape.

* NotAMask: Near the end of the story when Lizzie and her entire family gets cornered by hordes of Horrors, a frustrated Lizzie -- who's still thinking the Horrors are merely actors -- grab a nearby Horror's face and tugs at it, intending to see who's under that mask. Unfortunately, the Horrors are ''real'' monster.

Based on ''Literature/OneDayAtHorrorLand'', book #16 of the original ''Literature/{{Goosebumps}}'' series.

Luke and Lizzy Morris, along with their family, end up in a monster-based theme park, and soon find the dangers are real.

!!The episode provides examples of:

* AdaptedOut: Clay does not appear in this version.
* AmbiguouslyGay: The makeup artist horror, given his outfit, profession, and mannerisms.
* DeathByAdaptation: Unlike the book, the Morris family wins a car after surviving Horrorland -- and then are shown to drive dangling onto the edge of a cliff, which the Horror host refers to as a [[LiteralCliffhanger cliffhanger]] [[CliffHanger ending]]. We then see an elderly Horror couple watching the end of the show.
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: The host of ''Raw Deal'' announces that they are going to commercial, just as the show itself cuts to commercial.
* LighterAndSofter: Where the book plays the premise straight, much of the episode (particularly the ''Raw Deal'' segments) is turned into a BlackComedy of sorts.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: “Holly Tosis”, a monster version of Vanna White. Also a PunnyName.
* NotAMask: Near the end of the story when Lizzie and her entire family gets cornered by hordes of Horrors, a frustrated Lizzie -- who's still thinking the Horrors are merely actors -- grab a nearby Horror's face and tugs at it, intending to see who's under that mask. Unfortunately, the Horrors are ''real'' monster.
