"Haunted House" is the fourth episode of the horror black comedy series Scream Queens. It was first aired on October 6, 2015 on Fox.

In this episode, as Halloween approaches, Zayday (Keke Palmer) makes a stunning announcement and in response, Chanel (Emma Roberts) concocts a devious plan. Pete (Diego Boneta) and Grace (Skyler Samuels) visit a mysterious woman connected to Kappa's past. And as Hester (Lea Michele) starts to grow closer to Chad (Glen Powell), Dean Munsch (Jamie Lee Curtis) struggles to keep Wallace University open after the whole murder spree by the Red Devil.
The episode was watched by 2.97 million viewers and received mixed reviews from critics.
The episode opens with Chanel (Emma Roberts) talking about "Chanel-o-ween", where she gives her Instagram followers presents in celebration of Halloween. Some footage shows the girls receiving their present with their reactions being filmed. Some of the presents include a box filled with blood, a box of moths and apples with razors inside of them.
Detective Chisolm (Jim Clock) is interviewing Dean Cathy Munsch (Jamie Lee Curtis), asking if she saw the Red Devil enter the house. Wes (Oliver Hudson) and Gigi (Nasim Pedrad) argue that she's the killer. Denise (Niecy Nash) rushes into the house and tells everyone about the attempted murder of Caulfield (Evan Paley) and says when they get fingerprints from the chainsaw that they'll find them to be Zayday (Keke Palmer)'s. Meanwhile, Grace (Skyler Samuels) and Pete (Diego Boneta) drive to a trailer which is owned by Mandy who tells them what happened 20 years ago. In a flashback to 1995, Mandy and her sorority sisters are forced to wear hoods while Cathy drives to a location to bury Sophia (McKaley Miller)'s body. Cathy tells them to leave the university immediately and never contact each other again. Then they throw her body in the hole. Back in the present, Mandy says one of the sisters killed herself, another was institutilized and another made it into FOX News. She then reveals that the bathtub baby is a girl, much to Grace's confusion as she believed the Red Devil was Chad Radwell (Glen Powell). Later that night, Mandy is watching a horror movie when someone knocks on her door, she grabs a baseball bat and opens the door to find no one there. Soon she hears knocking from outside all around the caravan. She turns on the light and while looking in the mirror she sees the Red Devil pull out a knife behind her as she is heard screaming.
