Plot

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, but the villains have to wait until midnight for him to unleash it.

After a series of cartoons, Jafar, along with Captain Hook, Cruella de Vil, Ursula, Hades, Kaa, the Queen of Hearts, among other villains joining Jafar's plan, take over the house with the musical number "It's Our House Now!". 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 of Mouse's name being changed to the House of Villains.^[2]

Mickey, Donald and Goofy try to take their House back, but Chernabog stops them from entering the building. Minnie makes her attempt after the second-to-last cartoon but is casually thrown out by Hook. After the last cartoon, Mickey dresses in his sorcerer outfit from The Sorcerer's Apprentice and challenges Jafar to a magical duel using fireballs. Just when Mickey's sorcerer hat is knocked off, Aladdin evades from the kitchen on the magic carpet and gives Daisy Duck his lamp. Daisy hands it to Mickey, causing most of the villains to flee before Jafar and the rest of the villains are sucked into the lamp. The other characters are freed and the House of Villains is sabotaged, as the House of Mouse is returned to normal.
