A Muppets Halloween special titled, Muppets Haunted Mansion, is coming to Disney+ this fall. Throughout their ups and downs since the premiere of The Muppet Show in 1976, the Muppets have remained some of pop culture’s most endearing and adored icons. Disney+ has proven itself the home of the latest Muppet renaissance – the streaming service made all five seasons of The Muppet Show available to stream for the very first time earlier this year, and Disney recently announced they would be teaming up with The Jim Henson Company to create a biopic of the beloved man behind The Muppets.
Now, Disney+ is set to be the official home of the first-ever Muppet Halloween Special. In a video posted to The Muppets’ official YouTube channel, Gonzo and Pepe The King Prawn teamed up to announce an “all-new tale of total scariness – Muppets Haunted Mansion.” Watch the full video below:
Accompanied by a copious amount of lightning, Gonzo promises to give viewers their most “hilarious and harrowing Halloween ever”– which is all that’s currently known about the plot of Muppets Haunted Mansion. That being said, the title and its font choice suggest that the Muppets will be exploring one of Disney’s most enduring and scariest theme park attractions – which is set to be getting another movie adaptation of its own. The Muppets’ general love of mayhem is perfectly suited to the spookiest night of the year, and Muppets Haunted Mansion is sure to be much more hilarious than harrowing.
