Sydney Gordon is Howard's daughter, who is coping with the big move from Brooklyn to Bridge Hollow, although she finds it difficult to fit in due to the fact she's never celebrated Halloween with her parents, and the locals are obsessed with it. However, when she discovers a lantern in her new home, she inadvertently unleashes a curse that seriously changes the way her family thinks about the supernatural.
