Diego and his friends are gearing up for Halloween, but Glowy the firefly informs him that all the bats in the forest are too scared to come out and fly around at night because of the spooky holiday. Diego decides to investigate and finds out that Freddie the fruit bat is also afraid of Halloween. It turns out that a long time ago, Freddie got stuck in a spider's web on Halloween night and was too scared to ever leave his bat cave again.
Diego and Freddie's friends try to persuade him that Halloween isn't so scary, but nothing seems to work until they come up with the idea to throw a Halloween party in Freddie's bat cave. They show him all the fun things about the holiday, like costumes and decorations, and he starts to feel more comfortable. But when they hear a strange noise outside, Freddie gets scared again and hides in his cave.
Diego and his friends investigate the mysterious noise and find out that it's just some bats playing a prank on them. They explain to Freddie that there's nothing to be afraid of and encourage him to come outside and fly around with them. Freddie finally gains the courage to leave his cave and fly with his friends on a moonlit Halloween night.
As they fly around, they come across a group of lost trick-or-treaters who are in need of help. Diego and his friends use their animal rescue skills to navigate through the forest and safely guide the kids back home. Freddie realizes that Halloween isn't so scary after all and that he can have fun while helping others at the same time. The episode ends with all the animals enjoying the Halloween festivities and Freddie feeling much braver than before.
