A group of monsters lament over a night that changed their undead lives forever, through a series of true-crime style interviews, voiceover and unveiled CCTV footage.

These monsters were having a (somewhat mundane) Halloween party, when an unannounced and uninvited guest crashed the party. The monsters each tell their harrowing tale through talking-head interviews, when finally CCTV footage resurfaces to reveal the events of the day weren’t nearly as dramatic as the monsters made it out to be.
