Plot
Like the show, the film shows several Disney cartoons. In fact, these shorts make up more of the movie than the actual narrative. However, all their title cards are edited out.
House of Mouse:
- Lonesome Ghosts (1937)
- Donald Duck and the Gorilla (1944)
- Trick or Treat (1952)
- Mickey's Mechanical House
- How to Haunt a House
- Dance of the Goofys
House of Villains:
- Donald's Halloween Scare
- Hansel and Gretel
It is Halloween night at the House of Mouse, and a lot of villains are showing up. Jafar has a trick in store for the usual heroes of the House, but the villains have to wait until midnight for him to unleash it.
After a series of cartoons, Jafar, along with his new henchmen Captain Hook, Cruella de Vil, Ursula, Hades and Maleficent take over the house with the musical number "It's Our House Now!" All the other villains soon join Jafar's plan. The heroes, princesses and other characters are trapped in the kitchen while Mickey and several others are thrown out into the street. They witness the House's name being changed to the House of Villains.[2]
Mickey, Donald, Goofy and Minnie try to take their House back, but Chernabog stops them from entering the building. Minnie makes her own attempt after the second-to-last cartoon, but is thrown out casually by Hook. After the last cartoon, Mickey dresses in his sorcerer outfit from Fantasia (and Fantasia 2000) and challenges Jafar to a magical duel using fireballs. Just when Mickey's sorcerer hat is knocked off, Aladdin escapes from the kitchen, flying on the magic carpet and gives Daisy Duck the magical lamp. Daisy hands it to Mickey who uses the lamp to suck Jafar into it. The rest of the villains run away (and are possibly arrested by the police) and the House of Mouse is returned to normal.
