Petey Punkin is a shy, rather lonely, young punpkin, though cruious about his Sunflower and Punkin Patch. He finds his curiosity partially satisfied, and is a bit less lonely, when, on Hallowee Eve, the Scarecrow in the punkin patch, loses his head in a blustery wind, and a friendly hired hand places Petey on top of Scarecrow's shoulders. But the blustery wind is not finished, and soon, both Petey and Scarecrow are blown right out of the Sun-flower and Punkin Patch, ending up as Petey-Scritchy in the neglected cornfiedl below the B & BRRR Haunted Hotel. Suddenly confronted by a thing-witch-magician they are whisked inside the Haunted Hotel, where their lives, at the stroke of midnight, if Clock chimes on time, and Time and Mrs. Mary Moonlight and the Farmer Beans, Petey and Scritchie all old the same wish feeling-thoughts at the same time, may drastically change. While children will enjoy this story, it is also a coming of age, and adults may enjoy the magical transformations that happen in Petey-Scritchie's life.
