Disney's Halloween Treat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Disney's Halloween Treat was a 47-minute Halloween-themed clip show which aired on October 30, 1982 on The Wonderful World of Disney and featured a compilation of Disney animated shorts involving spooky or supernatural themes as well as excerpted segments from Disney feature films. The credits also featured footage from Disney's Haunted Mansion ride. The special was narrated by a jack o'lantern puppet. The opening and closing credits feature an orange colorized version of the 1929 Silly Symphonies short "The Skeleton Dance", as well as its own theme song, sung in the opening and closing credits. The lyrics were written by Galen R. Brandt with music by John Debney.
It was shown throughout the 1980s and was also released on VHS in 1984. As of today, Disney's Halloween Treat has not been released on DVD.
