The four kids arrive at Creepschool for the first time. Victoria is kidnapped by a shadow and ends up all alone in a bizarre white, featureless dimension with only her own echo for company. It turns out that her echo has a mind of its own and confronts Victoria with her deepest insecurity, namely that no one, least of all her parents, really cares about her. The others go looking for her, and with the help of some of their new Creepschool friends and particularly Demon Dog, they rescue Victoria. The whole experience brings the kids closer together and helps them decide to stay.
2"Just Joshing"March 14, 2004 (2004-03-14)
On the way to class, Josh takes a shortcut with Elliot and they end up in a strange room they've never seen before. Despite a warning sign, Josh pulls out a plug in the floor letting loose an army of mischievous imps who immediately rush off and start causing major problems for Creepschool. What's more, only the person who released the imps can plug them back in. Josh blames the whole thing on a monster he makes up. Being Creepschool, however, the monster Josh imagined comes to life and kidnaps him and Elliot before they have a chance to tell Malcolm what really happened. Finding themselves in a black void, things look very dark for the two boys. Soon Elliot works out that they are in fact imprisoned in Josh's own imagination- Josh merely has to imagine a way out and hey presto, there it is. They escape and with Malcolm's help manage to put every last imp back in the hole. But what about the monster?
3"Wish of the Garbo"March 15, 2004 (2004-03-15)
Janice is in a bad mood, people keep disturbing her. While reading an enchanted book of the Garbo that grants your innermost desires, Janice screams out, "leave me alone," and suddenly finds herself truly on her own - she has all of Creepschool to herself. First she enjoys doing exactly as she pleases without anyone interfering. After a while, however, she begins to feel lonely. To her surprise she discovers that she isn't actually alone. She meets a very bad-tempered old lady, who's been alone for so long she doesn't remember her name. Eventually it is revealed that the crabby old lady is actually Janice as she would become if she spends her life on her own. As she rushes off in search for other people, Janice discovers that she isn't in the real Creepschool, but a miniature model inside a snow globe. Elliot, who has been searching for Janice, sees her inside the globe. Wishing he could help her get out, the Garbo grants his wish, and Janice is reunited with her friends.
4"Tricks That Treat"March 16, 2004 (2004-03-16)
It's almost Halloween. Assuming that Principal Malcolm doesn't know what Halloween is, they offer to teach Creepschool what Halloween is all about by throwing a party for all the monsters. In their search for costumes, the kids come across an armoire full of great costumes they can use for the party. Just after the party starts, a terrible storm breaks out and the lights go out. The guests cry out and when the lights come back on, everyone has vanished except for the four kids. Believing their friends to be in danger, the kids set off looking for them. They soon discover that they cannot remove their costumes, that they have in fact become what they got dressed up as. This comes in handy, however, as they need the powers that come with their new identities in order to overcome the obstacles they come across along the way. In the end it turns out that the monsters were playing a trick on them- in fact, they invented Halloween so there would be one day in the year when the monsters could walk around the city without having to wear disguises.

Whenever he hangs one on the wall, a specific goal appears that Elliot then gets to experience once he leaves the room. He has a great time trying them all out, but then notices that everyone at Creepschool is slowly fading. It turns out that by trying out all the dreams he's been robbing others of their dreams, without which they cease to exist. Eventually even Creepschool itself fades away. Elliot pleads with the Goal Keeper to bring his friends back. The Goal Keeper agrees but wants Elliot's deepest, most cherished desire in return- his true love for Janice. Elliot has no choice- he agrees and is reunited with his friends.

What's better is that his double does anything Josh tells him to do, and is better at everything than he is, in fact he's very good at everything. At first this is a godsend- Josh gets to stay in his room all day playing video games, while his copy goes to class for him- Josh has never gotten such good grades before. In fact, the double is better than Josh at everything, including impressing the girls. Gradually, his double starts acting on his own and showing megalomaniacal tendencies.

Elliot wishes he could have known Master as a boy, whereupon Master gives him an undeveloped picture of himself, the only one ever taken. While trying to develop it, Elliot accidentally spills some strange fluid onto it, but being late for class, hangs it up to dry and rushes off. As the picture develops we see that the figure is missing from the image. In class the children are divided up into two teams and told to go out taking pictures of rare creatures- the rarer the creature the more points for the team. Suddenly a new student, Augustus, appears out of nowhere, and ends up on Elliot's team. Elliot's team is losing miserably, and Augustus is constantly getting them into trouble, particularly with Master, who dislikes the boy intensely right from the start. Soon Elliot's team realizes that they cannot win- no creature is rare enough for them to be able to catch up& except the Screaming Meemie. Going for broke they try to find a way to get the Meemies to come out so they can take a picture. Nothing works until Augustus discovers it by mistake. They rush off with the picture and win the competition, but Augustus fades away before their very eyes. Seeing the picture hanging in the dark room, we see the figure has returned- it was Augustus.

The problems escalate until the school is in total chaos and the students and faculty up in arms. Eventually, she is forced to use up her wishes to avert disaster, using her last one to wish things back the way they were.

9"Laughing Stock"March 21, 2004 (2004-03-21)
Elliot feels uncomfortable in his skin; why can't he be more outgoing and spontaneous, or tell jokes that make people laugh, like Josh does? This weighs particularly heavily on his mind as he perceives these qualities to be the kind that Janice enjoys. He finds a cool-looking jacket that makes him feel very slick and confident whenever he puts it on. In fact, it changes his whole persona, turning him into a scathingly sarcastic, fast talking comedian. At first, everyone is impressed by the sudden change in Elliot, but his put-downs are so harsh that his friends begin to resent him, particularly Josh, whom he humiliates when he steals the MC spot that Josh had his heart set on right from under his nose. Elliot, saddened by what the coat makes him say to his friends, and terrified he'll end up saying something nasty to Janice, tries desperately to remove the jacket, but it's too strong. When he finally finds himself face-to-face with Janice, with a perfect chance to fire off a put-down as she has just ruined her hair preparing for the talent contest, Elliot ends up in a final life-and-death struggle with the jacket. Elliot wins and the jacket comes off, all just in time for the talent show.

Despite being convinced that the children are too old for it to be a problem, Malcolm nonetheless tells them they should stow away any dolls they might have as they could get out of hand. The problem is, the kids are too old- so they are too ashamed to admit to the others that they still have their dolls.

They then force the kids to have a tea party and humiliate them by exchange embarrassing anecdotes from their past when their dolls were their best friends.
