Description[]

Eddie wants to go camping. Marilyn has to stay home to study, so the rest of the family goes camping in a National Park. After they arrive, the Park Rangers report them to Superintendent Haskell because they are a little strange looking. That evening the howling of wolves makes Grandpa nostalgic for Transylvania.

The next morning he's gone and the other Munsters hear a radio report that a Transylvanian wolf is in the custody of Park Rangers. Lily decides to go to the Ranger station by herself to claim Grandpa. At the station, the Rangers don't believe Lily's story that the wolf is her father. Lily finds out that Grandpa forgot how to change back. The Rangers won't allow Lily to take the wolf with her, so Herman decides to rescue Grandpa. The Munsters must now get Grandpa out of the park and back to the house in order to use one of his potions to change him back to normal.
