Winter Haunts

Da es draußen heftig schneit, müssen Dachs, Mauly und Ratty, die gerade zu Besuch bei Frosch sind, im Schloss übernachten. Frosch geht frühzeitig zu Bett. Heute nacht will er seinen Freunden beweisen, dass es in seinem Schloss Geister gibt. Zu diesem Zweck verkleidet er sich als Gespenst und schleicht sich in den Keller.

Snowed in at Toad Hall, the four friends recall the episode in which Mole mistakenly thought his house was haunted. Toad, who is proud of his illustrious ancestors (despite Badger's revelation of how one of them made his money in candles), maintains that a few still haunt the Hall, but no one takes him seriously. Deciding to play a trick on them, Toad retires early to bed, then dresses up as a ghost and waits in the cellar to surprise the others. However, the trick suffers a setback when, before going to bed, Mole locks the cellar door. Toad remembers the secret tunnel.
