Local radio station KOZY 102.1 is sponsoring a "Halloween Haunt" featuring an appearance by real-life nu metal band Korn.
Priest Maxi is unhappy about both and conducts a one-man protest campaign, calling Halloween an abomination of God and Korn Satanists that play violent music.
Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, and Kenny McCormick are excited about Halloween, but Eric Cartman is already thinking about Christmas because he expects to be showered with presents.
Cartman intercepts a life-sized blow-up Antonio Banderas sex doll ordered by his mother, which he mistakenly assumes to be a Christmas present for him, and takes it around town to show off.
The Halloween Haunt goes as planned, with Korn debuting "Falling Away from Me" which shocks the crowd, as their cheery personality in the episode is a strong contrast to the song.
During the closing credits, Kenny ends up getting killed by miniature Snowspeeders (à la The Empire Strikes Back) while inside his costume and rats arrive to eat his body.
[citation needed] DVD Verdict wrote "Korn's appearance in the Halloween show is expertly handled, as is the whole Hanna-Barbera animation send-up", and gave the episode a rating of 90.
