Episode 112	Scare Master	Aired: October 31 2015
At her cottage, Fluttershy trembles in fear as she struggles to get all possible access points closed off with the help of her animal friends. Things look ready but Fluttershy remains uneasy until she sees everything needed to survive the night under her bed. Angel notes her empty bucket for her carrots and refuses to accept any other vegetable, leaving Fluttershy to venture outside to get some and that's not something she's thrilled about as it's Nightmare Night. The journey takes longer than expected as Fluttershy finds herself frightened at every turn. Big Mac and Granny Smith are preparing for their haunted hayride and pick up the last few bales of hay when they find Fluttershy and wonder why she's out and about on the one night they know scares her. Nevertheless, they don't make it better for her as they scare her to the point where she runs away. She arrives at Twilight's castle, which also seems a bit ominous and once inside, she finds Spike wearing his soon-to-be-finished costume. Spike gets exicted when he feels Fluttershy came to brave the evening's festivaties but she really came to get vegetables for Angel and would never venture out during this holiday. Spike figures everyone would be much happier if Fluttershy came along, especially since she officially is out on Nightmare Night. Fluttershy agrees and arrives as the others are telling ghost stories in Twilight's library. She breaks the news but RD understandably isn't convinced so Rarity shuts her up before noting how wonderful the news is but the reminder of the corn maze brings back her uneasy feelings. Rarity offers to help pick out a costume but the duo each have trouble agreeing on the right one until Fluttershy decides to just wear the dress, which forces the others to fake their approval. They begin the festivaties but Pinkie Pie opts to save scarier games for next year when Fluttershy has gotten used to the ordeal. However, Fluttershy's fears begin to swing everyone else into following her wishes and the group realize that their fun is being taken away. As a compromise, Twilight suggests Fluttershy come up with something to scare them but RD doesn't take the idea seriously right away. Fluttershy likes the idea and says to meet at her cottage in an hour. The hour elapses and the group arrives to a less-than-scary tea party and are left more confused than scared. It isn't long before they discover Fluttershy hiding behind the couch next to the table and Fluttershy admits she lacks good scaring skills. Despite the others offering to stay, Fluttershy suggests they go out and have fun as they'd been waiting all year for the events. Fluttershy had been taking baby steps but Angel has quite the idea up her tiny sleeve. Elsewhere, the Mane Six venture into the corn maze with scares along the way even though RD sees right through the bones on the ground. A trio of ghosts appear and chase them through the maze and into a hole where they find themselves trapped. Applejack finds Granny Smith but it's just a a replica and the group becomes legitimately scared as none of them know who's behind it. AJ figures Big Mac and Granny Smith are responsible but GS and Big Mac are busy scaring a group of fillies above ground. Worse still, a rumbling fills the area and a greenish monster appears to give chase. The Mane Six find themselves trapped in a web as the monster moves closer. Twilight gets the group out of the cave but Fluttershy appears and takes of Spike's fake head before revealing herself apologetically. The group thouroughly enjoyed the scare and learn which of Fluttershy's animal friends helped make it all possible. However, Fluttershy finds Nightmare Night not something she wants to continue doing because she doesn't want the others to feel like they're in danger. The group respects her decision and hugs her before Fluttershy returns home for what she calls a perfect Nightmare Night.
