The play starts with three children (Nicholas, Junade and Candice) visiting a library to catch up on homework. While in the library, Nicholas finds a very old book. Inside the book is a map to buried treasure in a very old haunted house. The book states that the treasure can only be found at midnight on Friday the 13th. The children go to the house at midnight on Friday the 13th and follow the map in the book. While in the house, a ghost grabs Nicholas and a zombie grabs Candice and they both turn into zombies. They all frighten Junade. They then take off their masks and costumes and wish Junade a happy birthday.
