Update Oct 27, 2009: Hey Fanpoppers, I've updated this list so that all the videos are working again and up-to-date just in time for the Holiday. I've added in some new videos to replace some of the shows I can't find working versions for. So check out some of the new finds below too! Enjoy...

Often cited as the second most popular holiday after Christmas, Halloween can certainly stake claim to being one of the "funnest" of all the holidays. Halloween videos are no exception. The quality and entertainment value of Halloween themed video content out there really is second only to the excellent range of movies, commercials, cartoons and sitcoms of Christmas.

Anyway, in keeping with the spirit of this holiday, I've compiled a new list of Halloween videos of all sorts: music videos, commercials, movies, short clips and tv shows. I hope you enjoy them and have a safe and fun holiday.

The Classics
I'm using this term very loosely. Yes, Halloween doesn't really have the same depth of "classic" videos that Christmas has what with Rudolph, A Charlie Brown Christmas and The Grinch. Still, there are some Halloween classics that are a cut above the rest. Here are a few of them:

1. It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown (click to watch)

2. Looney Tunes: Broomstick Bunny (click to watch)

3. Scooby Doo: The Headless Horseman of Halloween (click ...ch)

4. Donald Duck: Trick or Treat (click to watch)

5. The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (click to watch)

6. TV Movie: The Halloween That Almost Wasn't (click to watch)

Scary (and some not-so-scary) Movies
Sure horror films can be enjoyed year round, but this genre was positively made for Halloween. It's no accident that the studios often release some of their biggest budget films in this genre at this time of year. Here are a few picks from the proverbial pumpkin patch:

	JessJ said: Wow, I'm impressed. Greatest list I've ever seen- 'specially because I do love traditional, Holiday-themed shows and movies. However, if you don't mind you did miss some titles if I may add. - The classic and traditional Nightmare before Christmas, and Corpse Bride, as well as of course other Tim Burton's movies, like Coraline, Edward Scissor Hands and more. - Don't forget Halloween Town 1, 2, and 4, seeing as you have the 3'rd Halloween Town listed. - For children, shows like Franklin, Arthur, Clifford, The Berenstain Bear's, plus the really old Berenstain Bear's Spookiest Pumpkin Carving Contest, Max And Ruby, both the Rugrats Halloween shows, All Grown Up, Spongebob, Fairly Odd Parents Halloween, and much more. - Yes you have Caillou's Halloween costume, oh but don't forget the Halloween episodes when he goes trick or treating, or the one where he visits the pumpkin patch, and carves a pumpkin into a jack or lantern. - Hannah Montana, Phil of the Future, That's so Raven, and all the other Disney and Family channel show's Halloween themed-episodes.- - 6teen zombie special, and 6teen Halloween themed-episode. - From the oldest to the newest Scooby Doo series Halloween-themed episodes. - House of Mouse Halloween - Every Loony tunes, Disney, Warner Brothers Halloween specials - Older shows with Halloween specials like Everybody Hates Chris, all six of Sabrina the Teenage Witch's Halloweens, Two of a Kind and all the other Olsen Twins series with Halloween-themed episodes, 8 Simple Rules, What I Like About You, Smart Guy, Sinbad, and sooo much more. - Older or modern popular shows with Halloween-themed episodes like Friends, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and probably The OC, The Hills, One Tree Hill, 90210, etc. And just adding in, it's not necessarily Halloween but it gives you chills- Pretty Little Liars. - Twitches one and two. - Scary Godmother one and two. - Goosebumps Haunted Mask one and two. - The witches, though not really Halloween-related, more of haunting. And of course all of the horror movies out there, they just go with Halloween. Like the famously titled 'Halloween' movies. Also, horror movies such as Freddy vs. Jason, The Excorcist, The Grudge, The Ring, etc. Haha yep I know my stuff, I'm a Halloween fan. Obviously missing other titles myself, but all I got. Anyone else got ideas? Please share! Anyways, other than that, great job, honestly! Better than anyone I know. Thanks for everything! posted 1 year ago.

	sbeat said: Nice list. Some of my favorites aren't listed, though. I like a lot of the 90's sitcoms. Like Boy Meets World, Fresh Prince, or Home Improvement. And all of The Simpsons "Treehouse of Horrors"(especially season 5). posted 1 year ago. last edited 1 year ago

	nachoman said: Great List...but....wasn't there a made for tv movie several years ago, about the Mercury Theater's Halloween broadcast of War Of The Worlds, and the panic that ensued due to the fact that America (well, the East Coast, at least)thought it was an actual invasion? What was the name of that movie? posted 1 year ago.
