Chapter 1
In an alternate universe at Canterlot, Pinkie Pie appeared as the Frankenstein bride.
“Greetings, everyone! Welcome to Cantervania. A hallowing world where humans and monsters live side by side.”
Cloudburst appeared as Frankenstein's monster, renamed "Franken-Cloud". He walked up to Shining Star and asked, “Star. Wanna go to party tonight?”
“That sounds great. I will be there.” She answered and the two walked away happily.
Pinkie appeared on the street next.
“A place where zombies would rather greet you than eat you.”
Mind Tempo appeared as a zombie and walked up to Cheese Sandwich. “Hey Cheese, up top.”
Cheese gave Tempo a high-five, but he accidentally took his arm off. “Oh gosh. I am so sorry! Tempo zombie dude.”
He tried to attach Tempo's limb back together, but Tempo got his arm back.
“Oh, just give it to me.” Zombie Tempo walked off after that.
Then Pinkie appeared at the beach next.
“In here, you'll see vampires are glimmering by the pool or at the beach.”
Diamond Glow appeared as a vampire relaxing on the beach chair and took off his shirt, revealing his chiseled, diamond-like body shining at the beach. Some of the ladies were blinded by Diamond and assured them, “Oh don't be afraid, ladies. I don't bite.” He revealed his fangs after that.
Finally, Pinkie appeared out the window in Tempo’s house while also defying gravity.
“So enjoy your stay! You're sure to have a hallowing good time!” She laughed maniacally until she saw Beryl running to the window and ducked to vanish.
In the kitchen, Gloria and Virtue were brewing something in their pot as witches while Beryl looked out of the window feeling nervous. Gloria noticed and questioned him, “Why do you keep looking out the window?”
“Just checking how long before... You know!” Beryl answered.
Virtue asked, “What's the big deal?”
“The big deal is, Shining Star's coming here and I never told her that I'm a werewolf.”
Gloria replied, “What? How long have you kept this secret from her?”
“The same way I'm going through tonight.” He pretended to cough, “I'm... sick. And if that doesn't work, tell her that I'm grounded.”
The door bell rang and Beryl figured that Shining Star would come to Tempo's house.
Beryl informed them, “And don't say anything about the Halloween Big Night of Fright Party we're singing tonight.”
Gloria and Virtue nodded and Beryl opened the door to see his girlfriend, Shining Star.
“Hey! I ran into Franken-Cloud and he invited me to the big fright party you're singing at tonight.”
Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah!
Beryl smiled nervously while Gloria and Virtue looked at each other and cringed.
“Great!” Beryl said, pretending to be excited.

Back in Tempo's house, Shining Star asked Beryl, “Hey, did you know it's a full moon tonight?”
"Really?" Beryl replied. "I didn't know that.”
She continued, "Big party, full moon, our first Halloween together. It's going to be an unforgettable night.”
"Oh you have no idea!” Virtue said, continuing to brew some stuff in the pot.
"Hey,” Beryl retorted until he noticed his hand started to become hairy. He freaked out and hid his hand behind his back.
Star asked, "So, you still up for a little fun in the Cantervania Cemetery?”
Beryl answered, "How about I meet you there in 15 minutes?”
"Sounds great. I'll see you there.”
After Beryl's girlfriend exited the house, Beryl immediately shut the door and panicked. He begged Gloria, "Help me, help me, help me! Use your wand and help me!”
She waved her wand and told Beryl, "Tell her the truth!”
"No, because Star is a normie. A normie don't usually date snarling hairy dog beasts.” Beryl showed them his hairy hand.
"Oh you forgot to add smelly and drooling,” Virtue added.
Beryl rolled his eyes and said, "Just poof me up a razor.”
Virtue used her wand and poofed up a razor on Beryl's hand and Beryl used it to shave the hair on his hand. Then, the rest of his monster buds entered the house.
Vampire Diamond told Franken-Cloud and Zombie Tempo, "The new girl is mine. I saw her first, I'm a hot vampire, I will bite you!”
The monster boy band turned their attention to Beryl and Zombie Tempo asked, "Hey, teen wolf! Wanna practice our dance moves for tonight?”
"I can't. Gotta shave my arms and meet up with Star.”
"All right, but you're gonna look like a real idiot when you can't do this.” Diamond said as he danced with Franken-Cloud and Zombie Tempo until Tempo's arm flew off and landed in the witch’s pot.
Virtue smiled, "Ooh, that'll add some flavor!”
Zombie Tempo hurried to the kitchen and grabbed his arm back. "Woah, woah, no, no. You can't use Righty for one of your smelly potions.”
"For your information, son, we're making a cake.” Gloria told him.
The rain poured outside as Golden Rock dressed in his mad scientist gear, was in his record company and screamed, “IT'S ALIVE! IT'S ALIVE!”
Then his assistant, Shelly Shores, appearing as an alien, entered the lab and asked, “Do you need another singing monster, Dr. Rockenstein?”
“No. It's a live album from FTR.” Dr. Rockenstein showed the album to his assistant.
"Oh, nice.”
Dr. Rockenstein explained, "I'm putting them in the goodie bags for the big night of fright party tonight.”
Then, Filthy Rich, dressed in red with horns on his head, magically appeared alongside with his assistants.
"Hail me!” He said, spooking the pants out of Dr. Rockenstein and his assistant.
Dr. Rockenstein calmed down and asked, "What now, Filthy Rich? The goodie bags are almost done and my monster band is ready to rock your party tonight.”
Devil Filthy Rich informed him, “Yes, about that. New research shows that the monster band is dead.” One of his assistants tossed the big binder to Golden. “In fact, the only one that is popping is Beryl. Because he looks normal on the album cover.”
Shelly put away the album and explained to him, "Yeah! And until there's a full moon, then he's a shag carpet with paws."
"Well, make them normal." Devil Filthy Rich ordered, "Because my big night of fright party is going to be full of board members and stockholders. And they and I want Fun Time Rush to be a hot boy band, not a has-been monster band."
"But that's four hours from now," Rockenstein informed his boss. "That's impossible!"
"Tonight is a big night for me, Rockenstein. So don't let me down! Or else!"
"Or else what?" Dr. Rockenstein taunted.
Devil Filthy Rich magically shrunk the mad scientist down to the size of an ant and the devil was ready to squash him.
"AHHHHHH!" Dr. Rockenstein screamed in terror. "STOP!"
His boss stopped and pleaded, "Okay, okay, fine. I'll get it done!" Devil Filthy Rich stepped his foot back and Dr. Rockenstein informed his assistant, "Shelly, get Franken-Cloud down here right now! We have some experimenting to do."
Devil Filthy Rich and his assistants stepped back and magically teleported out of the record company.
Meanwhile at the community center, Franken-Cloud heard a buzz from his phone and grabbed it. He got a text from Shelly and told his monster buds, "Gotta go see Dr. Rock."
"Well I'm coming too. Maybe Doc Rock will keep the party from falling apart." Zombie Tempo said until his right arm fell down.
"See?" Zombie Tempo proved his point. "You okay there, Righty?"
Righty gave him a thumbs-up.
Then, Vampire Diamond saw the new girl and said, There she is!"
The boys saw the new girl with brown hair and black leather coat was heading towards the pool area.
"Ooh!" Zombie Tempo and Franken-Cloud awed while staring at the new girl.
Vampire Diamond stopped Franken-Cloud and told him, "No, no, flat head. She's mine!"
After Vampire Diamond followed the new girl, Melody’s dog, DJ, grabbed Righty and ran away. Zombie Tempo gasped, "DJ! Drop it! That's my arm, not yours!" He chased DJ afterwards while Franken-Cloud watched and laughed.
In the pool area, Vampire Diamond sat in the new girl's table and greeted her, "Excuse me, but are you from Tennessee? Because you're the only..." Diamond looked around to make sure no one other dude was in the area and continued, "Ten I see."
The new girl chuckled and rolled her eyes in disgust. She turned around and Vampire Diamond unexpectedly appeared. "I'm Diamond. I'm in a band."
"I'm Reina. I'm not interested."
He retorted, "That's because you don't know me yet. I like long walks on the beach and taking gorgeous girls like you out for a quick bite."
Reina saw Diamond's fangs as he smiled. She told him, "On second thought, you know, you're just the type of guy I've been looking for."
"Really?"
She nodded and Vampire Diamond responded, "I mean, of course I am."
Back to Zombie Tempo, he and DJ were playing a game of tug of war with Righty as the rope.
"Release, DJ! Respect personal property!" Zombie Tempo demanded until he pulled Righty back from the dog. He laughed in victory, "Zombie's rule and doggies drool."
DJ growled and bit Tempo's foot. He yelped and said, "DJ, that's my foot!" After that, DJ yanked Tempo's foot off of him and ran away.
"That is SO NOT COOL!" Zombie Tempo yelled before turning his attention to Righty, "Let's get 'em."
Righty gave him a thumbs-up and Zombie Tempo resumed chasing after the dog.
Meanwhile, Beryl sat down with his girlfriend for a nice picnic date at the Canterlot Cemetery.
"I'm really looking forward to watching you sing tonight." Shining Star told him.
"Yeah..." Beryl then looked at the full moon in the sky. "About that." He then noticed his hand was all hairy and his fingernails were long. Beryl screamed and hid his hairy hand.
Star was concerned after hearing him scream while getting the food. "Um, are you okay?"
"Star, there's something I need to tell you."
"I'm listening."
"I'm a were...," Beryl then made up a lie, "I'm aware that the party concert thing is totally going to stink tonight and you should skip it."
Shining Star was confused after hearing what Beryl said.
Beryl repeated himself, "Totally skip it."
"You don't want me to go?"
"No, it's not that I don't want you go. It's just that--" Beryl suddenly howled in front of his girlfriend. He resumed, "We're going to have a lot of fun."
Then out of nowhere, DJ ran off with Zombie Tempo's foot and Zombie Tempo yelled, "Heel! Give me back my heel!"
"Oh, I should go help Tempo now!" Beryl said and ran off on all fours like a werewolf.
Back at Golden Rock Records, Dr. Rockenstein presented Shelly his latest invention.
"I call it, the Hot Boy Band Machine!" Shelly was unfazed and a bit surprised as he continued, "Once the boys go in, their DNA is scrambled and handsomized and voilà! The pop-singing normal boys come out."
Shelly asked, "And you made this in an hour? Are you sure it works?"
Dr. Rockenstein replied, "I'm sure. I have no idea. That's why Franken-Cloud is here to test it out."
Franken-Cloud arrived but has no idea how to open the door. Shelly rolled her eyes and opened the door for him. He entered the lab and Dr. Rockenstein told him, "Okay, Franken-Cloud. Time to play in the pre-funhouse." The mad scientist opened the door and Franken-Cloud start to get terrified with the lights and sounds from the machine.
Shelly brought out two corn dogs from her lab coat. "I got you some corn dogs!" Franken-Cloud smiled and Shelly tossed the corn dogs inside the machine. "Go get 'em!"
"Corn dog!" Franken-Cloud smiled and ran towards inside the machine.
"NOW!" Shelly signaled and Dr. Rockenstein pressed a button to close the door, trapping Franken-Cloud into the machine.
Franken-Cloud screamed in panic, begging for someone to let him out. "I give you hot singing normal boy!" He pulled the lever and the machine was activated.
The lights blared and minutes later, the machine stopped and the door was opened. After the smoke was clear, they did not see Franken-Cloud until they looked down and saw him as a cute, little black bunny.
"Well, he's cute, but... not a boy!" Shelly told Dr. Rockenstein.
"I know that!"
Then Bunny Cloud sang, "I wanna be famous!"
Dr. Rockenstein admitted, "Sings good, though. TRY AGAIN!" He laughed until he closed the door, pulled the lever, turned on the machine, and tried again.
Meanwhile, Reina and Vampire Diamond were on a date in a restaurant.
"That is so crazy," Vampire Diamond said. "I'm allergic to grape jelly too."
Reina asked, "And the dumbest pasta shape ever?"
Both Diamond and Reina answered together, "Bow tie!"
They laughed and Reina admitted, "I have to say, this has been a really great dinner."
"But we haven't had dessert." Vampire Diamond smiled.
She stood up and offered Diamond, "Would you care to dance?"
"I prefer... Tango." Diamond stood up and put a rose in his mouth.
"Isn't that dancing?"
Vampire Diamond nodded and danced the tango together. As Reina leaned, Vampire Diamond held her by the hip with the two of them in position until he hissed and bear his fangs. With quick instinct, Reina sensed the intention of Vampire Diamond biting her neck and immediately pushed him down.
Reina brought out a stake in hand and Vampire Diamond asked, "You wouldn't happen to have that for gardening purposes, would you?"
"Try vampire-slaying purposes," Reina replied and attempted to kill Diamond with a steak.
He dodged the incoming attack and told her, "I'm seriously thinking about not asking you out again." Vampire Diamond screamed and ran out of the restaurant with Reina chasing after him.
Meanwhile, Zombie Tempo and Beryl ran to the record company and entered Dr. Rockenstein's lab.
Beryl told Shelly and Dr. Rockenstein, "Don't talk. You have to help me. I need to be turned into a normal for the concert." He showed them his hairy hands and chest.
Zombie Tempo told them, "And I need a new foot."
Dr. Rockenstein smiled, "I got you covered. Because of my new hot boy band machine, you will no longer be monsters for Spoiled Rich's big night of fright. Observe, new normal Cloudburst... I hope." He turned on the machine again and ten seconds later, he pulled the lever and the machine was off. The door was opened and out of the smoke was a normal... genderbent Cloudburst who's a pageant queen.
"Whoa! Who is that?" Zombie Tempo and Beryl smiled while Dr. Rockenstein and Shelly were not happy with the result.
"It's Cloudburst." Shelly deadpanned.
"Ewwww!" The boys shouted in disgust.
The female Cloudburst spoke in words that everyone couldn't understand and waved at the boys too. Beryl and Tempo uncomfortably waved at "her" until Shelly put the female Cloudburst back into the machine.
"Okay. Too much pageant queen." Dr. Rockenstein admitted. "All right. Now, we press the red button and more Y chromosome." He used the keyboard and pressed the red button until he pulled the lever to activate the machine again. "Yee-haw!"
After it was done, Dr. Rockenstein opened the door and out of the smoke was Cloudburst as a green-striped, furry monster from some kids show.
Shelly and Dr. Rockenstein were confused again and the two boys told them, "Too much Gabba Gabba."
"Back inside. Okay." Shelly told the furry monster nicely and the door was closed again.
Dr. Rockenstein went back to the keyboard and said, "Got to pull back on the striped fur, shorten the arms and add super, powerful voice!" He pulled the lever and the machine was activated. Seconds later, Dr. Rockenstenin deactivated the machine and opened the door. Out of the smoke was Franken-Cloud, but more muscular and angrier.
Franken-Cloud roared and ran to the keyboard. "NO MORE MACHINE!" He forcibly pulled out the plugs from the keyboard and turned his attention to his bandmates. "CLOUDBURST MAD!" He bulldozed two of his friends and exited the lab.
"Too much power!" Dr. Rockenstein noticed.
"But he still has to be improved." Shelly noted.
Franken-Cloud continued his rampage and damaged the furniture in the building.
"Okay! Who's next?" Dr. Rockenstein asked the boys.
Beryl answered, "I think I'm going to pass."
"Yeah. Big pass here," Zombie Tempo replied as the rest of the gang watched Franken-Cloud continued his rampage inside until he exited the record company.
