Principal Snyder appoints Buffy, Willow, and Xander to watch after the kids while they go trick-or-treating the following day. Buffy would rather take a vacation since vampires and demons, contrary to common perception, do not enjoy Halloween. Later, when interrogating Xander about Buffy, Larry, the school bully, attacks him, causing Xander to intercede by slamming Larry into a Coke machine. Xander, on the other hand, is enraged by the damage Buffy has done to his image rather than grateful for her rescuing him.
28. “The Lyin’, the Watch, and the Wardrobe,” Ugly Betty
It’s Halloween, and Betty and Hilda are both interrogating Ignacio about his fake Social Security card, but he seems too busy with the festivities. Justin, on the other hand, dons a sailor costume (a la Gene Kelly in On the Town). Betty’s idea of fun is dressing up as a butterfly for a Halloween party at work.

“Fear Itself” from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (#27).

25. “Jacked O’Lantern,” a black-ish film
Dre starts his voiceover by reminding Black-ish viewers of something they already know: he loves Halloween. Dre has loved Halloween since he was a kid, dressing up as the Silver Surfer (not the Tin Man) with a hairnet on his head and stealing money from his mother’s purse to ride the bus to the best Halloween candy houses. Now that he lives in one of the best Halloween candy homes, including his kids’ “hood cousins,” it’s a free-for-all for trick-or-treaters.
“October 31st,” by Kim Possible, 24.
During Monique’s party, Kim spoke with Josh, who was costumed as a pirate. He was enthralled by her princess attire and bionic hand, which he had no idea was part of the Centurion Project. It grew bigger and larger as Kim continued to lie to satisfy him, eventually covering her whole body.
She flew over to the hospital, where the two villains were questioning her parents about her whereabouts while Ron was kept prisoner, using this technology. They battled, and she came out on top. The victory, though, was bittersweet.
When she revealed her lies to her parents and Ron, who already knew the truth from the villains, the cybernetic armor faded back to its original dormant bracelet form.
23. “Who Got Dee Pregnant?” from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
The episode in question was presented as a seductive whodunit, with each character putting together different hazy recollections of Deandra’s alleged impregnation during a Halloween party.
Dee had already stoked the flames by implying that one of the gang members is the father of her unborn child, leading them to plan the crazy night in order to find out who did it with Dee.
Dee admits that she lied and that none of them are the father at the end of the episode, but she won’t reveal his real identity since they’re all such idiots.
22. “Halloween” from Modern Family
Claire loves Halloween and is getting the Dunphy house ready for trick-or-treaters.

Cece and Robby’s Halloween preparations are disrupted by Schmidt. Winston thinks it is past time for him to break up with Shelby.
19. “Treehouse of Horror V,” The Simpsons
Treehouse of Horror V is a short story anthology episode. The Simpsons take over as winter caretakers at Mr. Burns’ mountain resort in “The Shinning,” a parody of The Shining in which Homer goes insane and tries to kill the family. In “Time and Punishment,” Homer repeatedly goes back in time and alters the future.
He tries but fails to undo the changes and settles for a version of reality that is close to his own. In “Nightmare Lunch,” Principal Skinner starts using detained kids as cafeteria food. When Bart and Lisa are about to be killed, he wakes up and realizes it was all a dream, but in the final scene, he and his family are surrounded by a strange fog that turns people inside out. This episode of Treehouses of Horror is one of the darkest and scariest yet. Willie, the groundskeeper, gets axed in every episode.

Frasier and Daphne dress up as Geoffrey Chaucer and the Wife of Bath from The Canterbury Tales, Martin as Sherlock Holmes, Niles as Cyrano de Bergerac, Roz as ‘O,’ the love slave in ‘The Story of O,’ and Bulldog as Waldo from the ‘Where’s Waldo?’ books.

17. “Trick or Treatment,” MASH
The doctors exchange ghost tales while dealing with a Halloween downpour, Hawkeye tries to cure a soldier devastated by the deaths of his friends, and a dead soldier turns out to be not-so-dead. This was the only Halloween episode of M*A*S*H, and it wasn’t the greatest. At times, it may seem disjointed. It has a mix of comedic and serious storylines. In all, there are four stories: ghost stories in the operating room, inebriated marines, Private Scala, and the dead soldier who returns from the dead.
16. “Full Bars” from Bob’s Burgers
The kids ask Bob for permission to go trick-or-treating alone for the first time on Halloween. Teddy is ecstatic that Bob and Linda will be able to join him for his Halloween party. When they arrive, everything is painted black and orange, including Teddy’s guinea pig Frances. After seeing that Bob is the only one at the party who isn’t dressed up, Teddy pulls out a large suit from his closet for him to wear.
The children are unhappy with the poor sweets given by the community during trick-or-treating. As a result, they take a boat to King’s Head Island, a neighboring island with a rich community. They meet up with Milo and Ned, two local boys, and are astonished to find that many people are gifting them full-size chocolate bars, something they are not accustomed to getting back home.
15. “Illuminated” from Teen Wolf
The kids in the neighborhood are carving jack-o-lanterns on Halloween night. From the mist comes a skein of five Demon Warriors.
They pass straight by the children, hardly pausing to glance at them.
Isaac is trembling on Allison’s room floor. He’s trembling. When Allison and her father find him, Chris Argent attacks him, causing Isaac’s werewolf side to awaken and the healing process to begin.
When Isaac recounts the Demon Warriors, who had black, greenish-yellow eyes “like a firefly” and emerged from the shadows, Chris’ face lights up. He asks Isaac and Allison to keep the assault under wraps for the next 24 hours. Chris thinks the creatures were on the lookout for him.
He enters his room and finds a wooden box broken into pieces, which contained one of the Demon’s Hannya.

Lana, Lois, and Chloe are possessed by witches who were burned at the stake after touching a 16th-century magic book.
The three witches have reappeared, disguised as goth girls, seeking revenge as well as the Stones of Power, while causing havoc on the town. When Clark attempts to stop the witches, they take away his powers and force him to reveal the location of the stone he hid in the cave.
“Greg Pikitis” from Parks and Recreation
Leslie visits Pawnee High School in order to face Greg Pikitis, whom she dubs her “arch-nemesis.” Leslie tells Greg that she is aware that he vandalizes the town’s Mayor Percy statue every Halloween, but that she will be on the watch for him this year and will catch him. Greg categorically denies that he has any intentions.
Ann is excited about the Pawnee town hall’s upcoming Halloween event. She asks that the others keep it a secret from Tom, but she is disappointed to learn that Jerry has already told him. Leslie and her boyfriend, Pawnee police officer Dave Sanderson, keep a watch on Greg that night, while Andy, who now works part-time for the parks department, keeps an eye on the statue.
“Meet ‘n Greet” from Parks and Recreation.
Leslie Knope hires Tom Haverford’s Entertainment 720 to organize a meet-and-greet for her and a number of Pawnee business owners, in the hopes of gaining their support for her City Council campaign, particularly the president of the Pawnee Chamber of Commerce, Martin Kernston of Kernston’s Rubber Nipples.
Meanwhile, Andy Dwyer and April Ludgate are throwing a Halloween party at their home without telling their roommate Ben Wyatt, who instead of confronting them directly chooses to be passive-aggressive.
11. “HallowVeen” from Brooklyn Nine-Nine
The episode begins with two police officers walking into the Easter portion of the heist, surprised to find that it is “still going on,” setting the tone for the remainder of the program.
With that introduction, it looks as though the Nine-Nine have been doing this for six months in a row, putting to rest the question of whether they still do their duties. Instead, Heisting’s three vacations are simply the result of ingestion-related pauses and starts, along with the squad’s busy schedules.
“A River of Candy Corn Runs Through It,” Sabrina the Teenage Witch
Valerie announces that she and Sabrina are having the greatest party conceivable at Sabrina’s home, enraged because Libby is throwing a Halloween party that expressly excludes them. When Sabrina unwillingly agrees to help her friend, she discovers that her aunts’ new furniture delivery includes talking couches infested with talking termites.
When Libby’s bored friends disrupt her party, Sabrina calls the band 10,000 Maniacs to amuse her classmates, who misinterpret everything as a “amazing” Halloween special effect, including the talking couch and chairs, the talking cat, and Hilda and Zelda’s candy corn river.
9. “Halloween” from American Horror Story: Murder House
The spirits of the Murder House grow more strong, blurring the line between life and death. Meanwhile, the Harmons seek guidance from the house’s former inhabitants on how to decorate for Halloween. The Rubber Man makes an appearance as well.
Chad Warwick is setting up lights and carving pumpkins in preparation for a Halloween party to pique people’s interest in the house he and his partner bought with the intention of fixing it up and reselling it for a profit.

When an altercation between Topanga and Cory in Feeny’s class escalates, Cory, Topanga, Shawn, Angela, and Kenny all end themselves in detention. When Feeny departs, the words “No One Gets Out Alive” is written in blood on the whiteboard.
The sound of a pounding heart can be heard in the hallway, startling everyone in the area, but it’s only Eric and Jack bouncing a basketball. They described the school as terrifying, particularly when blood was pouring out of the showers. The lights go out, and when they come back on, Kenny is dead, his brain pierced by the big pencil he wanted to borrow from Topanga earlier.
7. “The One with the Halloween Party,” Friends
Monica and Chandler are throwing a costume party for Halloween. Monica gets Chandler a pink rabbit suit, which he despises, and makes him to wear it (she wanted to get him a brown and white bunny costume to dress as The Velveteen Rabbit, his beloved childhood book, but the pink bunny costume was all she could find).
Chandler learns he no longer has the worst costume when Ross comes dressed as “Spud-nik,” a clever play on words combining the Russian satellite Sputnik with a potato.
6. “Slutty Pumpkin” from How I Met Your Mother
Future Ted tells his children about meeting the Slutty Pumpkin at a rooftop Halloween party in 2001, a woman dressed in a provocative pumpkin costume who seemed to be very compatible with Ted. He, on the other hand, lost the Kit Kat bar on which she had written her phone number and waited for her every year in vain.
Ted sees the slutty pumpkin costume on a store display in the present, and the owner happily discloses the name of the lady who rented it in 2001. Ted meets Naomi, the girl in the disguise who has been on the lookout for Ted, and the two begin dating.
Ted realizes he doesn’t love her and that they have no chemistry straight away, but he can’t bring himself to end the relationship so easily after finally finding the slutty pumpkin woman after all these years. When Ted decides it’s time to break up with Naomi, he’s shocked to see her dressed up in the sultry pumpkin costume once again. Ted responds by telling her that he loves her.
5. “Halloween” from “The Office”
As he walks into the office, Pam tells Michael that Jan has called. Michael is well aware that this is because he was supposed to fire someone before the end of the month. He’s been putting it off in the hopes that someone would quit, move, or die before he had to. He has no idea who he will let go of, in fact.
4. “Trick or Treat, Freak” from Stranger Things
Eleven wakes in the Upside Down soon after killing the Demogorgon in a flashback. She searches for Mike frantically, tired and frightened at first. While searching, she comes upon a Demogorgon-built portal. She uses her abilities to enlarge it and escape through it. When she arrives to Mike’s house, she finds him being interrogated by federal officials who inform him that her claims are untrue.
3. “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester,” from Supernatural
Sam and Dean are investigating two inexplicable deaths in a tiny hamlet shortly before Halloween. The boys find hex bags and learn that a witch is sacrificing people in order to raise Samhain, a terrifying creature.
When Castiel arrives in town, he tells Sam and Dean that one of the Seals that would lead to Lucifer’s release is the freedom of Samhain, therefore Castiel has sent a specialized angel called Uriel (guest star Robert Wisdom) to smite the whole town.

The best Halloween TV episodes, according to cinema critics and fans
As we said in the outset, this greatest Halloween TV episode list was compiled not just by us at Fiction Horizon, but we also contacted other movie experts and fans for their suggestions, so let’s see what they have to offer.
Season 2 Episode 2 of Stranger Things
In Stranger Things Season 2: Episode 2, the boys dress up as Ghostbusters and go trick or treating. But their evening is cut short when Will gets a vision of a dark monster from the Upside Down attempting to grab him. Other characters struggle with guilt and relationship issues, and Dustin makes a frightening find in his trash can at the conclusion of the episode! Any Stranger Things or 80s culture lover will love this creepy Halloween episode!
Eymel Daniel of ForChics recommends a Halloween TV episode.
Trick or Treatment in M*A*S*H
MASH is a show that everyone enjoys. When wounded troops begin to arrive, the group attempt to organize a Halloween celebration, which is a wonderful mix of fun and seriousness. This combination is precisely what fans of MASH and its characters have always admired. While not quite a scary episode, this lighter take on a Halloween episode is nonetheless fantastic!
Benjamin Smith from Disco recommends a Halloween TV episode.
This Episode of Psych Sucks | S6 E3
Psych, unlike many other TV programs focused on Halloween, aimed for comedy while paying homage to horror, sometimes with well-known appearances from famous films. As Shawn and Gus investigate a random homicide where the dead was drained of all of their blood, the original Buffy, Kristy Swanson, and Lost Boys alum Corey Feldman joined in on the fun.
Wonderful nods to popular vampires, colorful costumes, a few eerie jolts, and no-holds-barred performances from stars James Roday & Dule Hill (it’s near impossible to not erupt into a giggle fit with their homage to Lestat and Blacula) make this one of the greatest Halloween episodes on television that is far too often missed in Best Of compilations.
Aaron Peterson of The Hollywood Outsider recommends a Halloween TV episode.
Season 2 Episode 13 of MTV’s Scream
MTV’s Scream is the greatest Halloween TV show. The three-season horror series is based on the 1996 film Scream and features a murderer who hides behind a phantom-like mask and tortures his victims by forcing them to play phone games. MTV, on the other hand, has developed a far more contemporary version, in which the murderer uses texting and social media more than real phone conversations. As the program continues, viewers will notice that the background is woven throughout, while the films didn’t disclose the information until the end/finale, when the murderer was revealed.
The program also keeps you wondering from scene to scene, with people changing traditional stereotypes. While Scream the movie was excellent at making fun of itself by addressing traditional horror themes and then veering away from them, the show does away with the narration in favor of more gore. Scream on MTV makes you feel as though no one is safe, pushing you to watch episode after episode out of sheer terror. The greatest thing is that each episode will include at least one kill, leaving you with even more questions about who, why, and what.
Natalie Bickel of natmosfear recommends a Halloween TV show.
Recommendation for several Halloween TV episodes
On television, the Halloween season is chock-full of great moments. Here are a few of my favorites:
1. The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror V – This is an all-time classic that features the Devil Flanders, Homerzilla, Bart, and The Demon Baby, among many other memorable characters. This is a must-see film.
2. Brian vs. Stewie — Family Guy This was one of the first episodes of Family Guy that I ever saw. It was so amusing that I contacted my local cable provider and requested that it be added to the lineup (which they did).
3. A Scause for Applause – South Park Halloween has here, and the fourth grade is in full scary gear. Kyle burns down the school cafeteria in an effort to stop Cartman and Kenny from fighting over food, so he decides to replace it with a haunted house.
Cloom’s Abby Ha recommends a Halloween TV episode.
Halloween on Modern Family (Season 2, Episode 6)
Seasons of Modern Family may have ceased generating relevant and quality material, but excellent episodes like Halloween will always be available in repeats. Everyone but Claire’s Halloween spirit is tired when it’s time to go to the annual Pritchett-Dunphy Haunted House in this poignant and funny episode. It depicts many people who are distressed and anxious, making them desire to avoid going to the Haunted House.
Phil worries that he and Claire may suffer the same fate as a neighbor’s marriage, emphasizing the uncertainty in some relationships and demonstrating how much Phil loves about his and Claire’s marriage. Gloria feels self-conscious about her English mispronunciations while Mitchell tries to fit in at his new law practice. Another reason to like the episode is that these scenes depict how individuals struggle to adapt in society despite their peculiarities. Mitchell struggles to traverse his workplace without being spotted in a ludicrous Spider-Man costume, while Gloria attempts to mimic and fake an American accent.
Claire’s meticulously designed, dope haunted home nailed it as well, with additional features like a multi-scare walk-through with gloomy lighting, thunder, lightning effects, and a massive severed head. This is an episode worth seeing for Halloween masterminds because of the thrills and laughs that come with it.
Katherine Brown of Spyic recommends a Halloween TV episode.
Halloween on Brooklyn Nine-Nine (Season 1, Episode 6)
Jake Peralta, a policeman of the 99th Precinct, is betting with his Captain that he can take his Medal of Valor before midnight. Jake devises the most elaborate antics, using Halloween costumes or whatever, to divert Captain Holt’s attention and steal the Medal. I’ll leave it up to you to figure out if he succeeds in the end.
This first-season episode was so well-received that it sparked a tradition of having a ‘Halloween Heist’ every season, which has become one of the most anticipated episodes of each season.
Patrick Sinclair of Allhomerobotics recommends a Halloween TV episode.
Friendships (Season 8, Episode 6)
You won’t find a battle between a pink bunny and Spudnik, a gigantic potato with antennae, anywhere else.
The hilarious outfits and hilarious rivalry between Chandler and Ross are just half of the entertainment. The candy-hungry youngsters have taken advantage of Rachel’s maternal impulses. Sean Penn (as a special guest star) discovers that there are two Buffays: Phoebe and Ursula, and that the distinctions between them are larger than he previously believed. Finally, Joey is parodying Chandler, much to the amusement of the audience. What’s more, do you know what? It’s still funny after all these years!
Agnieszka Cejrowska of Allhomerobotics recommends a Halloween TV program.
Welcome to Briarcliff from American Horror Story: Asylum (Season 2, Episode 1)
American Horror Story is one of the greatest horror shows out there. Because it’s an anthology of many tales, no two seasons follow the same chronology (with the exception of the last season, which most AHS fans prefer to forget), you don’t need to have seen the first to enjoy it!
You already know you’re in for a wild trip in this episode with a risqué appearance from the oh-so-dreamy Adam Levine right out of the gate. Unlike other shows, American Horror Story jumps straight into the brutal, anxiety-inducing action that has made it the cult classic it is.
The episode (along with the rest of the season) takes place in Briarcliff, a notorious mental institution controlled by religious zealots. You’re immediately uncertain who can be trusted, who is having fun with their victims’ faces after work, and who is (you won’t believe this) a nazi. They also toss in aliens and human experimentation a la Frankenstein’s Monster for good measure. Yes, it’s gory and sexually weird, and it’s definitely worth seeing!
Kristine Daub of byCurated recommends a Halloween TV episode.
Spoons – Salad Fingers
If you’re a lover of creepypastas, you’ve probably heard about Salad Fingers. If you aren’t, one of the more esoteric ideas below may be for you.
Salad Fingers is a series of short, disturbing cartoons that include almost no horror components, yet manages to frighten even the most thick-skinned among us thanks to incredibly creative use of music, visuals, and subtle allusions towards peripheral social oddities like pedophilia and breaking and entering.
If the first episode piques your interest, you may find yourself falling down the rabbit hole with this one, so be prepared. I doubt I’ll ever forget the query, “I’m here to inquire about your spooooons,” or the sound of Salad Fingers stroking a rusted kettle, and you shouldn’t either, so don’t claim you weren’t warned.
Salad Fingers may be found on YouTube, and it’s completely free to watch!
Halloween TV episode recommendation by Stephanie Boll from Spikes & Heels.
Halloween Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Season 2, Episode 6)
In the film “Halloween,” a new store owner provides excellent, cheap Halloween costumes to children only to perform a spell that transforms them into the creature/monster/being they dressed up as.
Only children who purchased their costume from this new store were impacted, which meant that there were very few “kids” since the shop was so inexpensive.
This episode provided a new perspective on the Buffy characters. The store owner turns out to know Giles (Buffy’s watcher) and informs us that Giles was not always the guy he presents himself to be.
Buffy tries to dress Willow in a seductive attire before the swap, but she becomes anxious and puts on a ghost costume she purchased from the store. Willow walks out of her body (the “her” who is lying down with a ghost sheet) and exposes the clothing beneath when she is transformed into that ghost, allowing the characters (and the audience) to perceive Willow as more than just a brain.
SPOILER ALERT: To rescue his companions, Xander transforms into a soldier and enters “protector” mode (whom he has no memory of). Buffy’s memory is also erased. They only know the lives of the characters they dress up as, and they retain some of their memories and abilities after changing back into themselves. (Okay, Buffy’s character was pointless, but Xander retains his abilities, which he later uses to get access to a military facility and steal a weapon.)
Patriot Asset Management’s Lizzy Hosford recommends a Halloween TV show.
Fear Itself from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Season 4, Episode 4)
Halloween only comes once a year, and it’s never complete without viewing one of the many films or television programs that portray the eerie and charming atmosphere that surrounds it. Halloween episodes of any TV program are some of my favorites. Especially the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Halloween episodes.
My all-time favorite episode is Season 4, Episode 4 from 1999. “Fear Itself” is the title. This episode is plenty with drama and comedy, as well as plenty of spookiness, making it the ideal Halloween episode. Blood is inadvertently spilled upon a summoning gateway on the ground, and the “gang” goes to a frat costume party that is arranged like a haunted home, where many strange things happen.
If you’ve watched all the seasons before this one, it’ll be even better since this episode features character growth. It can, however, be seen without knowing who the characters are since it hooks you from the start. The greatest part is the finale, which includes a surprising twist that no one sees coming. This is a must-see episode!
Karen Lee from Things Around the House recommends a Halloween TV episode.
Halloween has always been one of my favorite holidays. I love the costume, the food, the late night trick-or-treating, the spooky decorations, and most importantly, the commercials. I’ve spent many an hour perusing hours worth of commercials, searching for the best ones featuring the most unusual characters. During these searches, I’ve come across some of the most bizarre commercials that I’ve ever seen, but I’ve also stumbled upon some that are actually pretty cool. So, I’m going to take you on another trip down memory lane, and show you some of the best Halloween commercials ever broadcast.. Read more about halloween specials and let us know what you think.
