Plot
On Halloween night, Witch Hazel brews a potion while consulting her magic mirror, revealing her fear of aging. Meanwhile, Bugs Bunny, disguised as a witch, visits her for trick-or-treating. Mistaking Bugs for a fellow witch, Hazel becomes jealous when the mirror suggests Bugs is uglier. Devising a plan, she invites Bugs in, intending to use him in her beauty potion.
As Bugs discovers Hazel's intentions, he tries to escape, prompting a comical chase through the house. Hazel, wielding a cleaver, pursues Bugs until he convinces her of his innocence. Moved by his tearful plea, she spares him, but accidentally drinks the beauty potion meant for Bugs, transforming into a stunning redhead.
Shocked by her own beauty, Hazel seeks validation from her magic mirror, only to find the genie infatuated with her. Terrified, she flees on her broomstick, pursued by the enamored genie on a flying carpet. Bugs, now free, cleverly alerts the authorities to the surreal chase unfolding before him.
