After the performance, the Maestro agrees to leave and crumbles to dust, but returns as an enormous demon.

He performs magic tricks and dance routines with a ghostly horde, then possesses the mayor, forcing him to dance. The Maestro challenges the mayor to a 'scaring contest': the first to become scared must leave. The children assure the parents the Maestro has done nothing wrong, but the mayor intends to banish him as a 'freak'. The mayor of Normal Valley leads a mob to the mansion of the Maestro, who has been entertaining local children with magic tricks and ghost stories.
