Goofs[]
- Chase could have and should have used his force field to protect himself from the lasers while Adam uses his heat vision from behind Chase.
- It was said that Stephanie only went to Bree's sleepover because of the Davenports' house. However, when she first arrived, it was seen that she was checking out the house for the first time.
- Although this could be just because she heard about the house before.
- When Tasha goes to tell her scary story she walks down the stairs and behind the couch to sit down when she does tell the story the camera is in front of the whole couch yet she looks surprised when Adam and Chase jump up from behind the couch after Bree says they were the ones opening the door.
