Alana Thompson sported the perfect “Ghostbusters”getup for Sunday night’s Halloween-themed “Dancing With the Stars: Juniors.” But the Georgia native was left with an unexpected answer to the movie’s theme song lyric “Who you gonna call?”

The dancing pairs went all out −with costumes and moves  − for the first night of the two-night Halloween affair. One team rose to the top with all treats no tricks. “Black-ish” star Miles Brown and his partner Rylee Arnold mastered the fast and technical samba Sunday night, with “I Want Candy” by Bow Wow Wow as the soundtrack. The team scored 27/30, with the judged raving over Mile’s transition from actor to top-notch dancer.

Alana, aka Honey Boo Boo, and her partner Tristan Ianiero tied for the lowest score of the night with spelling bee whiz Akash Vukoti and Kamri Peterson. Both teams scored 21/30 for their Halloween-themed dances. Thompson and her partner Tristan Ianiero were both charismatic as they performed a Jazz combination to the popular “Ghostbusters” by Ray Parker Jr. The judges noted that Alana gave “100 percent” to the dance. The duo even ended their performance by spraying slime.

Though the audience had saved Honey Boo Boo in past rounds, this time they did not “call” on her to go through another week. Alana and Tristan were eliminated during Sunday’s episode.

“Dancing With the Stars: Juniors” airs 8 p.m. Sundays on WSB-TV Channel 2, the local ABC affiliate.
