    The Great Pumpkin

    On Halloween night, the Great Pumpkin rises out of his pumpkin patch and flies through the air with his bag of toys for all the children…or at least that’s what Linus van Pelt believed.

To cap off this year’s spooky season, we celebrate the first and best Halloween TV special and ask ourselves: Does Linus still believe in THE GREAT PUMPKIN?

    Tarman and the Wraith

    October always makes us nostalgic for the good old days of the VHS era, when the local rental store was sure to have its shelves stocked with schlocky straight-to-video sequels to all our favorite horror movies and the television airwaves were replete with seasonal Halloween specials. In this DEALER'S CHOICE DOUBLE OR NOTHING DOUBLEHEADER episode, we blind-challenge each other to improvise follow-ups to a couple of our favorite spooky movies.
