Toons.TV Description
King Pig is attacked by zombies who want to eat...his huge pile of candy! He's helpless until Bubbles - the Orange Bird - comes trick or treating. Bubbles really can't bear the sight of zombies eating candy, so he must stop this right away.

Plot
On a spooky night, at the spooky cemetery of King Pig's Haunted Palace, King Pig is seen eating a huge pile of candy. He noticed that someone knocked on the door. He opened it, and he saw a pig wearing a mask trick-or-treating to him. He ignored, as he doesn't want to give him candies. Again, he opened the door when he heard someone knocked on it. He got angry with him, but suddenly, the pig removed the mask, and King Pig's afraid to him, it was a Zombie Pig! Then, the zombie pigs are coming to eat his huge pile of candy. King Pig was hiding under the desk, full of fears.

Bubbles came, which he also does trick-or-treating. He knocked on the door, and the zombie pigs opened the door. He said to them that he wants candies. He saw a huge pile of candy and passes over the zombie pigs. He stuffed his bag with candies, but King Pig noticed it. Bubbles brought his bag back to his hideout, but one of the zombie pigs pull his bag. Bubbles also tightly pulled his bag, like a tug of war. But the zombie pig's teeth were dentures. His teeth chase the zombie pig, and it ran away.

Bubbles laughed about it, but the zombie pigs blocked his way to his hideout. He then fights the zombie pigs. King Pig was amazed and proud of him. He hits some zombie pigs using a weighted ball connected to a chain. When he saw the zombie pig, he twists the lollipop around him and laughed. King Pig collects the lollipop directly. When he noticed and saw a zombie pig eating fairy floss, he swings him and lets him go right out through the palace window.

The Zombie Pig gets an idea, he rings the bell from a well to wake up and walk out more zombie piggies from their deaths. Bubbles saw them, and shouted, while King Pig gathers some candies in his cart, and brings it. Bubbles inflated himself into a huge size like his powers in the game. The zombie pigs ran away, but they were being thrown, as well as the candies. King Pig also-ran. He hides behind the curtains, but he left the cart with candies in! Bubbles deflated himself and laughed at the zombie pigs.

Then King Pig saw that the cart was empty, and he cried for it. Bubbles felt sorry for King Pig and dropped him a red gumball, which he eats. But then he saw the zombie pig's dentures (false teeth) again, and it started chasing him around the palace, like the zombie pig earlier.
