Happy Hallowe’en, kiddies! Enjoy this spooky treat. Hahahaha!
Hobo Moon Cartoons aims to preserve the beloved Halloween classics of yesteryear for future generations to enjoy!
The Peanuts gang celebrates Halloween while Linus waits for the Great Pumpkin.
It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown is a 1966 American prime-time animated television special based on the comic strip Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz. A Halloween special, it was the third Peanuts special to be produced and animated by Bill Melendez.
The special features music composed by jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi, whose contributions include the theme song Linus and Lucy. It was also the first Peanuts special whose title used the pattern of a short phrase followed by “Charlie Brown”, a pattern which remained the norm for almost all subsequent Peanuts specials.
That’s awesome! Seems an American tradition for sure:)
YES…and I think luckily they have been passed down. My 21 year old knows them all and when he has kids one day he will do the same.
The renowned classics of yesteryear must live on in the highest esteem and honor for future generations to enjoy forever and ever!
I am also. I have them all but I want the new generation to see them also.
Mine too. I’m glad you enjoyed it. And I’m glad PBS still shows it
My all time favorite Halloween cartoon…from my all time favorite cartoon characters.
