[Draculaura] So this year, I didn't ask for much for Nightmore.
Only to celebrate the best monster holiday
by throwing the perfect party for my friends.
After all, I've been collecting inspo
for my first time hosting Nightmore
since I was a baby vamp.
I've got a schedule planned for maximum fun.
I collected everything I need...
and maybe a tiny bit extra.
Oh, zap, my first Nightmore party!
Why is it called Nightmore?
It's the longest night of the year.
More night. Nightmore.
Monsters all over the world use the extra spooky nighttime
to celebrate friendship.
-Aah! -I got you.
I can't wait to eat, dance, and be scary with my boos!
Ooh! [strained voice] Uh, Draculaura,
could you relax with the rigor mortis?
Oops, sorry. Just nerves.
My dad's never let me host Nightmore unchaperoned.
-[door opens] -Hey, light a fire under it!
Lagoona and Clawd are waiting.
Uh, who's carrying that leviathan?
I got it.
Gust of wind, moon so shiny,
-what was big now is tiny! -[gasps]
Aah!
Huh? Whoa!
Witch powers firing on all cylinders!
[Draculaura] I wanted all the beasties to come with us,
but everyone has their own special Nightmore traditions.
Cleo's heading to the pyramids.
Manny and Deuce are off to Mount Olympus.
[both] Gonna party like the Greek gods!
Party like the Greek gods!
And Spectra's floating off to the phantom realm.
Y'all be careful and watch out
for Yetis playing "Yeti Ready 8."
If you get in their way, you get ice popped.
Oh, got to get to the undead dance party.
Have a super dreadful Nightmore. Bye!
Wait, Yetis?
Yetis and my kind, they don't mix.
[chuckles nervously] It's so bad,
they call it freezer burn!
I can't go if there are gonna be Yetis.
Please, Heath.
Dad's mansion isn't in Yeti territory.
That's the next mountain over.
So how do we get to this mountain oasis?
Papi sending the vamp plane?
I wish!
Dad's using it to go to a fancy Nightmore party
with his brood at the Bermuda Triangle.
But I've got transport covered.
-Clawdeen, are we good? -Hmm.
[sniffing]
Coast is clear.
Traveling this way's the best,
in a blink to Mount Neverest!
[wind blowing]
-[rattling] -[all gasp]
Uh, anyone else getting major haunted vibes?
Yeah, and I found a cold spot. Ooh!
[gasps] I should have brought my haunt-o-meter.
It's not haunted.
No way my dad would pay for a haunting
at a house he hardly ever visits.
Haunted or not, my gills are icing.
You said we didn't need coats!
Sorry!
My dad installed monster temp regulators,
but maybe they broke?
Allow me.
[bones cracking]
[grunts]
-[both] Aah! -[gasps]
Oh, stakes!
My dad didn't mention installing those.
Are all Nightmore parties haunted?
They're not supposed to be.
Haunting is a fall holiday thing.
I have a fishy feeling, like I'm being watched.
Haunted blizzard is not the vibe I curated.
My perfect party aesthetic is pastel goth.
But the decorations I brought will set
the right Nightmore mood.
Power of skies, increase the size!
Uh, increase the size!
It must be the elevation. It messes with witchcraft.
Got a bit of brain from a secret witch enthusiast.
Ugh, the spell book didn't cover that!
What are we gonna do?
All the Nightmore stuff is in there.
Our feast, the decor, my plans--
it's all ruined!
This place is huge.
There's got to be stuff in here we can make a party out of.
Spread out and find some fun!
[cheering]
Wait for me!
-Aah! -[gasp]
It must be one of Draculaura's old toys.
Aw, a drool stain!
Board games!
That could be all Nightmore-y, right?
[both grunting]
It's like something
doesn't want us to open this.
[both gasp]
Wait, these aren't wood. Rubber?
Probably a prop from one of my dad's old movies.
Ew, missing toes!
The tradition is that you smooch under them.
May be dusty, but it'll do.
[low rumbling]
What was that?
Sorry, I'm starved!
[panting]
-[grunts] -[yelps]
Ever feel like a house hates you?
[electric buzzing]
-Huh? -Whoa!
So it's not what I planned
and it doesn't match my mood board,
but we can work with an old-school vibe.
Like expired in 1955 old school.
Hey, I think it's dark out!
Yep, sun is set! Nightmore is on!
[all] Dreadful Nightmore!
-Yeah! -Ha ha!
These cans are still good.
-Huh? -[belches]
This can still be a great party.
First up, Clawd will tell a Nightmore spooky story.
Ooh, I love novelas!
[sighs]
It was a dark night, the longest night of the year.
And a young werewolf was invited by his best boos
to a spooky, um, cabin in the woods--
a cabin in Yeti territory.
Yeti, the monster that is so scary,
-it scares other monsters. -[girls gasp]
As the monsters settled in for their party,
they heard a sound.
Thump, thump, thump.
The brave werewolf went toward the sound.
Thump, thump, thump.
He reached for the door!
[tense music]
-[phone chiming] -[all scream]
Your phone nearly stopped my heart.
-I can help with that. -Sorry.
Might have packed the schedule a little tight.
I just got an alert to sing the song I wrote for you all,
but it can wait.
Hold up. You wrote a whole song for us?
We got to hear that. Right, gang?
Yes!
[stammering] This story is stressing me out.
OK, just need to turn the scare-oke machine on and--
-[mic feedback] -Oh!
-[rumbling] -[all scream]
Whoa, killer bass.
Probably just the house settling.
All right, back to my song.
[all screaming]
Stay calm. We're, uh, fine.
The party is gonna be fine.
Look!
A window blew open.
-Ugh! -[rumbling continues]
That wasn't the window!
Are you sure we're not in Yeti territory?
It was probably just the wind banging a branch on the door.
Ah!
Even in my castillo off the coast of Honduras,
we were taught to never tangle with Yetis,
or we'd risk freezing the whole ocean.
Don't open it!
Heath, simmer down.
There's nothing to worry about.
I think?
[gasp]
[suspenseful music]
There's nothing here. See?
-[crash] -[grunts]
Yeti!
-Clawdeen! -Fight mode!
-Bat on and ready to attack! -Wait!
Please, I'm a Yeti, but I'm not an enemy.
And I'm very sorry to snowbank your party,
but you all kept looking everywhere.
I tried to hide inside, so I thought
I'd just wait it out on the roof,
but it's really slippery.
Let me explain, and then
if you still want to, you can attack.
You're a Yeti?
But you seem like a regular monster.
Ooh, ooh, I can smell fear. [sniffs]
And she's more afraid of us than we are of her.
She means no harm.
Welcome. Come on in.
Um, is it OK if I come in, fiery one?
Whoa. Uh, we--welcome.
Let's get this party restarted!
[phone chiming]
[sighs]
So my mom said,
"Abbey Bominable, you are strong and independent--"
Here's some water, pretty-- I mean, Abbey.
Falling off the roof always makes me thirsty.
[gasps] Sorry! I'm very clumsy.
And I didn't mean-- [sizzling]
[gasps] Oh.
No freezer burn.
All good, chica. As a sea monster,
I can gather water vapor from the air.
It is how I breathe on land.
Very cool. Thanks.
So, right, my mom said I could go
on a solo snowboarding trip, and here I am.
Wow, if only the evil moms in my novelas
were as cool as your mom!
Just you, the mountains,
and an avalanche of possibilities.
Sounds voltageous!
Following your instincts.
A girl after my own heart.
[phone chiming]
A solo snowboarding trip?
It took me a literal millennia
to convince my dad to let me come here
with a bunch of friends.
Solo would be a no-go.
How'd you pull that one off?
Oh, um, very carefully.
But I must admit something.
With the blizzard raging, I was stranded
and very, very far from home. I saw the vacant mansion.
And it seemed to have been empty for some time,
-so I let myself in. -[gasps]
I'm so sorry. I was desperate and scared.
I even laid some booby traps for protection.
So that's what was going on.
I thought my party was being sabotaged.
But it was an emergency, and you needed a place to stay.
So what's it like being a dangerous Yeti?
Well, first of all, we're not dangerous.
We mostly keep to ourselves.
It can get lonely.
But if you're lonely, why go on a solo trip?
To find us, her new boo crew.
Will you stay for our Nightmore party?
-Sí, sí. -Come on.
-Please do. -Yes!
I wouldn't want to impose.
-Uh... -[phone chiming]
Yes, of course.
You're just in time for--
We should ask our guest what she wants to do.
Yeah, our plans were ruined anyway.
[girl] What do you want to do, Abbey?
[Abbey] I bet Yeti games are wicked!
Mm, guess I don't need to sing.
I know what game we can play, but first,
you'll have to stand back.
-[all] Whoa! -Ooh!
Ooh, wow.
-[gasps] -Oh, no!
Lagoona! No!
The ice could clog her gills!
We got to get her out of there, stat!
-Oh, my claw! -Oh, no!
Breathe, Lagoona! Breathe!
[eerie music]
[Draculaura] Lagoona, can you hear me?
Have you been frozen?
Can you breathe?
Snowball fight!
[exclaims]
[gasps]
[chuckles]
Yetis can control snow?
I never learned that in my monster books.
I'm still learning.
Really powerful Yetis can even control cold weather,
but I'm not there yet.
Can your mom control the weather?
Yes, of course.
She must miss you.
Maybe, but Yeti backpacking trips
-are usually pretty long, so-- -Backpacking?
I thought you said it was a snowboarding trip.
[grunts]
Oh, ho, ho, it's on!
I need an ally. Ooh, Abbey, you're on my team!
[phone chiming]
[sighs]
Come on, Draculaura!
Whoo-hoo! Let's snowball!
Draculaura, join in!
I want to try the spell in the basement first.
Maybe it'll work in a slightly lower elevation.
Drac, need any help? Hey, Heath!
How'd you even throw that with your hot hands?
No, I got it.
Ugh, I should be happy they're happy.
Being happy with your friends
is what it's supposed to be about.
But I worked so hard on my Nightmore song,
and they don't even care to hear it
because they're so busy with Abbey.
[door opening]
Hey, you OK?
Yep, of course.
Why wouldn't I be?
Some Yetis have this power.
Like a change in the weather,
I can feel a cold cloud inside you.
Are you sad?
I guess.
This isn't the party I envisioned.
It kind of snowballed out of my control--
oh, I'm sorry.
-I didn't mean-- -It's OK.
I did kind of storm in.
You and your friends are very kind.
Why aren't you celebrating Nightmore with your friends?
Actually, I don't have any.
Unless you count Shiver,
but woolly mammoths aren't exactly party animals.
[giggles] No friends?
But you're so fierce.
I'm sorry if I made you feel unwelcome.
All my friends love you.
I may be a little jealous.
You're jealous of me?
But it's me who's jealous of you!
You have all these friends
and a dad who lets you host a mansion party.
And you go to Monster High, the coolest school ever!
I wish I could go there.
Why can't you?
The rule is Yetis can't go to Monster High
because of the dangers
of our weather powers getting out of control.
That's not right. All monsters
should be allowed at Monster High.
Once your solo snowboarding trip is over,
we're changing that rule!
But I'm not on a solo snowboarding trip!
My mom is actually super overprotective.
And I left home after we had a big fight.
I wanted to do what you said--
appeal to Monster High.
Maybe if I showed I could control my powers,
they'd make an exception and let me enroll.
But my mom refused.
I was fed up, so I went out to get some cold air.
But my mom must have freaked out even more
because the blizzard got really, really bad.
And then I got worried, and it got even worse.
And I got lost, and my snowboard got wrecked.
And now, I still can't find my way home.
And I'm worried about my mom!
Sorry.
I didn't mean to do that.
It's OK. You're not alone now.
You have us. We'll get you home.
But first, we got to call your mom.
She must be worried sick.
Oh, Draculaura, thank you,
but we Yetis don't call other monsters.
Not in a million years would my mom have an iCoffin.
[cackles] I'm good at snowball fi--
[grunts]
-[phone ringing] -What's that ringing?
I think it's this thing.
Is it some old iCoffin?
Hello? Dracula residence.
I got this. Ahoy?
Dracula, it's Headmistress Bloodgood.
I've been trying every number I have for you.
There's an angry Yeti in my office
accusing me of hiding her daughter
and demanding to speak to the--
I know Abbey's here.
You bring my daughter to me at once,
or I will tear down this school
with a blizzard so cold your head will freeze off.
-[gasps] -Permanently!
[gasp] That's my mom.
I have to call them back!
-Here, use my iCoffin. -You can use this.
-Pick mine. -Uh...
-[low tone] -Huh?
No service? It must be the storm.
What am I going to do?
If Mom ices Monster High, they'll never let me in.
We're going to fix this.
Monster Squad, bat up and come on!
I can't magic us out of here,
but presenting the Ghoul Mobile!
-[all cheering] -[laughter]
[engine starts]
[tires screeching]
With your driving skills, you should enter the Deadtona 500.
We just have to get to a lower elevation.
Then I should be able to use my witchcraft
to get us the rest of the way home.
We're almost at the Bottomless Ice Chasm of Doom.
It should be quick once we get across.
Mi amiga, did you say the Bottomless Ice Chasm of Doom?
Surely you meant something else?
Nope, that's it. But it's not so bad.
There's a giant bridge.
Easy-peasy, demon slug squeezy.
And here we-- Uh-oh!
Um, I am not seeing the bridge of which you speak.
-Hey, lead foot, the brakes! -[squeals]
I'm trying, but we're not stopping!
[Heath] It can't end in this way, not in ice!
I might have an idea,
but I don't know if I'm powerful enough.
-Abbey, you've got to try. -OK.
-You can do it, Abbey! -Go, Abbey!
-You'll nail it like a coffin. -You got this!
-You rock! -You're a skilled
and charismatic
and beautiful monster.
[all] Whoa!
-[all chanting] -Abbey! Abbey!
Abbey! Abbey!
We're not doomed!
-Yeah, we made it! -Voltageous, Abbey!
[Draculaura] We've reached a low enough elevation.
My magic should work again.
[stammering]
Where is my daughter?
Ms. Bominable, let's discuss this over some hemlock.
Oh, oh!
Amma, stop!
-[gasps] -Oh!
Thank snowness. I knew it.
She was here, and you tried to tell me she wasn't.
No, Amma, you've got it all wrong.
Monster High isn't like that.
You have no idea what this place is like.
We are leaving, end of story.
Amma, please listen to me.
[Ms. Bominable] Abbey, we are going home.
They don't want us here.
[Draculaura] Wait!
Please, Ms. Bominable, listen to what I have to say.
Are you gonna throw more accusations my way?
Blame me for the ice popping of 1999?
Amma, Draculaura is my friend.
Monster High has changed.
We just met her,
but we know Abbey is a wonderfully brave,
silly, slightly clumsy Yeti.
Her powers are spooktacular.
I mean, she made an ice bridge!
Really? That's amazing, snow angel.
But even if she couldn't make a snowflake,
that wouldn't matter. That's not what Monster High is about.
It's a safe space for monsters to be monsters,
to learn and do fantastic things.
But also make mistakes, which is A-OK
when you got the support of friends and teachers.
We thought a lot of things about Yetis that were wrong.
And Abbey helped us see that we still have work to do
to support and uplift Yetis.
But when you stop expecting and start experiencing,
you can find something truly amazing.
So amazing. Snow angel amazing.
And, uh, I'm really sorry we didn't get to meet sooner.
This wasn't the Nightmore I expected or planned for--
and I'll admit that was hard for me at first--
but I'm so happy it turned out the way it did
because I met Abbey.
She reminded me of what the holiday
is all about-- friendship.
And I hope you can see
that we're not what you expected either,
and that can be a good thing.
You have to change the rules so Yetis can enroll.
Is that what you thought?
Oh, my ghoulness.
Yetis haven't been banned from enrolling for years.
That message was flown off to Mount Neverest last century.
I guess I may have shut us off from the world,
including delivery dragons.
I've been hiding up in the mountains for so long,
I had no idea the world had changed beneath me.
I'm so happy to see
you've made friends who accept you for you.
And if this is what you want, you can enroll at Monster High.
Best Nightmore ever!
I guess I'll have to get one of those iCoffin thingamobbies
so we can keep in touch now.
And maybe next time, I'll confirm with Mortimer
that the message was received.
I knew I should have sent the delivery polar bear.
[Draculaura] Nightmore was almost over, but we still
had time to celebrate this non-traditional Nightmore
with all our friends at Monster High.
It wasn't the way it was supposed to be,
but I was ready for a new tradition.
It's Nightmore More!
And I think now would be the right time
for that song you mentioned.
[Draculaura] OK, everyone!
Here's my Nightmore gift to my best boos.
