Synopsis

It's holler-day time again, but things never run smoothly for our ghosties. Intead of a luxury cruise, the friends find themselves aboard a ship of phantom pirates--how frightful!
And when the friendly ghosties discover that the pirates plan to invade a still-alive ship, they simply have to help--after all, it is the polite thing to do!
