Teletoon brings the most tremendously terrifying special episodes to TV screens this Halloween.
Halloween-themed episodes of such new shows as George of the Jungle and Ricky Sprocket, along with Teletoon favorites including The Batman and 6TEEN, cast a spell over the Teletoon schedule. With far more treats than tricks for cartoon fans on the weekend of October 27, Teletoon broadcasts six hours of special Halloween episodes plus a spooky Spin Cycle every day after school from Monday, October 22 until All Hallows' Eve.
Spin Cycle gets spooky
The new interactive Spin Cycle continues in October and from October 22 all the way up to and including Halloween. It gets a little spookier as Halloween specials are thrown into the mix. Kids take control of the shows they see after school (4 to 6 p.m. ET/PT), choosing a mix of choice picks from such popular shows as George of The Jungle, Class of the Titans, Carl2 and Wayside.
Zombies
Zombies are on the loose in a special Halloween episode of The Batman airing at 2 p.m. ET/PT Sunday, October 28. Legendary zombie Solomon Grundy emerges from a swamp on Halloween to wreak havoc on Gotham, leaving Batman and Alfred to discover the secret of the monster before it's too late. Zombies also threaten Jude, Wyatt, Jen and the rest of the gang when a mysterious and deadly virus infects everyone in the mall in the 6TEEN special Dude of the Living Dead at 1 pm ET/PT Sunday.
When an unstoppable horde of zombie critters threatens to turn his friends into drones, George is forced to take drastic action in George of the Jungle airing at 2:30 p.m. ET/PT on Halloween. In Class of the Titans at 3:30 p.m. ET/PT October 28, Theresa and the rest of the Titans need to defeat a legion of zombies in order to undo the evil magic of Hectate, Queen of the Dead.
Monsters
At 4:30 p.m. ET/PT October 28, Bugs Bunny's Creature Features spotlights the scariest Looney Tune shorts, including Invasion of the Bunny Snatchers, and The Duxorcist, starring Daffy Duck.
In a monster-ridden Halloween episode of Ricky Sprocket, airing at 12:30 p.m. Saturday, October 27 and 5 p.m. ET/PT Sunday, October 28, Ricky braves werewolves and a possible vampire when he takes on a couple of frightening film roles. In Wayside at 2 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. ET/PT Wednesday, October 31, the kids spook themselves silly with ghost stories and Maurecia falls for a mysterious knight at a costume party, only to discover that underneath the armor, her crush is a little more hairy and stinky than she would like.
Things that go bump in the night
In What's With Andy?, the prankster is given a run for his money when another group of troublemakers manage to freak out the residents of East Gackle with their own Mischief Night stunts. The special episode of the prank-filled show airs at 5:30 p.m. ET/PT Sunday, followed by a scary 6TEEN in which Jonesy makes the mall a little more frightening with a Midnight Madness movie marathon.
In Carl2 at 3 pm ET/PT Sunday, C2 indulges in too much candy and has his first nightmare in which he dreams that another clone, not nearly as friendly as him, threatens to take over the Crashman household.
In Totally Spies!, the girls keep receiving creepy phone calls while babysitting. Are the calls part of a mean prank from their high-school rival Mandy, or is something more sinister going on, something that might be turning their neighbors into horrible ghouls? This super-spooky episode airs at 4 p.m. Sunday, October 28 and at 8:30 a.m. ET/PT on Halloween.
