Episodes
1. First Day
Maggot and Fungus are excited to go to "human school" for the very first time in their entire lives, but the other hotel residents are worried, including Funerella who decided that she should check on the children to make sure they are doing okay. Maggot and Fungus met Sam for the first time and became friends after Sam found out about their Zombie powers.
2. Love is in the Air
Maggot and Fungus decide to kickstart the Colonel’s lovelife, to help him find the woman of his dreams. It seems that love is impossible between Dame Fedora and himself. On the advice of Sam, they go to a matrimonial agency… but behind the agency are two sharks determined to rip off the “old” colonel... they are in for a big surprise!
3. Plumbing the Depths
In order to repair the plumbing, cash is needed and in order to get some ready cash, the Zombies decide to have a garage sale. This works really well and they would certainly have enough to get the pipes back in order if certain other problems didn’t crop up: Dame Fedora has disappeared and a snoring Zombie of the worst possible sort has worked his way into the hotel. The school headmaster, who managed to buy a porcelaine dog containing Dame Fedora’s ghostly perfume at the garage sale, cannot comprehend why his school is suddenly accused of being haunted by a ghost who plays practical jokes.
