Stardate 3018.2: Aliens on a mission of conquest hold the crew captive.

On Pyris VII, Kirk, Spock, and McCoy encounter a haunted castle, and find Sulu and Scott transformed into "zombies." Aliens Korob and Sylvia — disguised as a warlock and a witch — are responsible for the "trick or treat" trappings, using supernatural devices to terrify the men of the Enterprise. Only Spock is unaffected by their scare tactics. The aliens are on a mission of conquest, and have used a matter transmuter to assume human form. Sylvia, affected by her new body, attempts to ensnare Kirk into becoming her partner and lover. When Korob aids Kirk and company to escape, Sylvia changes into a gigantic black cat and crushes him. Kirk destroys the "magic wand" transmuter device, causing the castle to vanish and the aliens to resume their actual forms. In reality, they are fragile creatures, and are destroyed by the planet's atmosphere. Sulu and Scott are returned to normal, and "Halloween" is over.
