Plot
Two weeks after the events of the second film, Michael soon forgets about The Mysterious Killer. However, things take it up a notch as Michael begins to see The Mysterious Killer in his dreams from his memories. He asks Daniel at school to help beating out The Mysterious Killer from his memories.

Daniel uses a device and ties up Michael with an electric-type rope that will somehow make him fall asleep from fainting. Daniel then heads to the other room and observes Michael's room to see if something happens during this time period, he will burst right into his room and destroy it.

However, when something paranormal comes approaching to Michael's bed, the screen glitches. Daniel wakes up from his interrupted nap and notices all the screens are malfunctioning. Daniel wonders how could this happen when a shadow figure appears at the door. Daniel was questioning to it and first thought it was his friend Michael, and so the shadow figure points to the creature.

Daniel was soon terrified when the creature wanted his soul and have his life come to an end. He tries to escape but was blocked by a clown with a knife. The creature catches him and the clown possesses him.

Meanwhile, Michael wakes up in one of his memories and sees a black figure holding out a clown box. He walks back and bumps into another black figure, which reveals to be The Mysterious Killer. It then goes to another memory in his school's Halloween party. He then sees his friend Daniel and thought that he worked his way to get into his head. Daniel then urged him to go talk to Michael in a more situated-controlled area. Michael then talks about what he has seen lately throughout his memories and seeing The Mysterious Killer.

After Michael explaining, he notices that his friend was not acting like he is and wants to know who he really is. It was then revealed to be The Mysterious Killer in disguise of Daniel Armstrong. The Mysterious Killer cuts his tongue and lets Michael free-fall until the second before he hits the ground. Meanwhile Daniel being possessed goes into Michael's room and obeys the spirit that tells him to kill Michael with a knife. Michael, still inside his memories, was almost familiar with what he's seeing, when The Mysterious Killer restores his memories of Michael seeing him previous times. Afterwards, The Mysterious Killer faints Michael and made him blackout.

Michael wakes up to see a ghost of himself, which indeed was friendly. The ghost then explains that he's in a forest of nothing but quiet and darkness, especially when somebody has passed over. Michael then sees kids going somewhere and soon chases after them. It reveals to be Michael's grave, assuming that he will die in a matter of minutes. The ghost urges him to wake up, and so Michael wakes up and sees Daniel who is about to kill him. After Michael getting through Daniel, Daniel proceeds to puke out blood, facing up at the ceiling. The blood then transforms into The Mysterious Killer in his creepiest form ever.

Michael and Daniel battles The Mysterious Killer, attempting to kill it. Michael stabs him and then gets caught by the killer with his tentacle. Daniel figures out that killing him with a knife is not going to work, but rather the words of God and its holy name. The Mysterious Killer drops Michael and backs up in horror. He then proceeds to head out the window and sings a tune, which has a murderous message. Michael attempts to stab him with a knife just to let his hands fall of the window, when just then The Mysterious Killer begins to lose grip and says "Fear" to Michael, then letting go of the window.

The next day, Michael and Daniel are in a catholic church where Michael is getting blessed by Daniel, which reveals not only to be a scientist, but also a Christian, to help him get protected by Him from all the evil. Michael felt different about being blessed to God's word, which Daniel explains that He will always be there for him. Daniel soon leaves because of his experiments he needs to take care of, while Michael gets up and believes now to God that He will protect him, and that he will never be alone.
