Halloween TV specials

When I was a kid, I remember always having to be home in time to watch “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” on TV around this time of year.

It’s on tomorrow night (Tues. 10/30) at 8 p.m. on ABC so set your DVR (or VCR if you’re still old-school like myself).

Many regularly scheduled shows will be airing their Halloween-ish episodes this week including: The Big Bang Theory, Pushing Daisies, Bones, Reaper, Kid Nation, CSI: NY and others.

When can you catch some horrifying (or sometimes delightful) Halloween TV or movies?

As for favorites, you may laugh but I love to go back and watch the 11th episode of “Dawson’s Creek” entitled “The Scare”. Really about Friday the 13th, it’s still a scary-ish episode that always makes me think of Halloween. My favorite Halloween movie though has to be “Hocus Pocus.”

So what’s your favorite Halloween classic? Whether it’s a movie, a TV episode or other, I want to know!
