Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	It's nighttime on Sesame Street and the locals (Gordon, Bob, Maria, Mr. Hooper, and the kids) are engaging in evening social activities. Some of them are dancing to some rock music near the stoop, and when they get on his nerves, Oscar decides he's going to have to scare everyone in order to make them go away. Donning a demon mask, he begins making monster noises, but his behavior is interpreted as a performance by the others and they applaud him for it. Oscar concedes he'll have to come up with another idea to make everyone disperse.

 	SCENE 3 	Oscar has decorated the street in the macabre, changing its name to Scary Street and his trash can to Creepy Castle, with cobwebs littered about and boxes rigged to spring with fun house creatures. (The script instructs art director Alan Compton to "use the Vincent Price side of his talent.") Everyone is still on to him, but they decide to fake their fright to humor him. With the flip of a switch Oscar starts the lights and special effects, but as they are being chased by objects flying around on wires, listening to spooky howling, and flashes of thunder and lightning, they all mockingly huddle up to Oscar and ask him to protect them from all the scariness. Oscar reveals his gag and assures everyone it's all fake, giving up his charade and going to bed.
