Halloween boasts a full hour of deep-sea spooks featuring Nickelodeon's jolly sponge with the cubical trousers. In "Scaredy Pants" easy-to-scare SpongeBob attempts to come up with the scariest costume ever--and exceeds beyond his wildest dreams. "Imitation Krabs" concerns Plankton's evil robotic plan to trick SpongeBob into revealing Mr. Krab's secret krabby patty recipe. "Frankendoodle," a spoof on Frankenstein, has SpongeBob drawing a self-portrait with a magical pencil he found. It proceeds to come to life, wreaking havoc all over Bikini Bottom. SpongeBob turns into a "snailcat" in "I Was a Teenage Gary" when he's accidentally injected with pet Gary's medicine. And in "Squidward the Unfriendly Ghost," SpongeBob and pal, Patrick the starfish, mistake his grumpy talcum powder-covered neighbor for a grown-up Casper. The educational value may be minimal, but the humor quotient is high in these five installments of the popular series. For ages 6 and up. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Customer Reviews

Spongebob Halloween Specials!
Enjoy watching SpongeBob SquarePants? Then you'll definitely enjoy his DVD "Halloween". It contains ten episodes on DVD(five episodes on VHS).

The DVD is featuring these episodes:

Scaredy Pants

Squidward, The Unfriendly Ghost

Frankendoodle

I Was A Teenage Gary

Immitation Krabs

The Secret Box

Band Geeks

Welcome to the Chum Bucket

My Pretty Seahorse

The Idiot Box

10 great episodes, a must buy for all SpongeBob SquarePants fans, or anyone who has seen the show and finds it amusing.

Don't be a Scaredy Pants, buy the Season Sets!
First of all, understand that the content itself is 5 stars easy...it's Spongebob! The 3 stars is simply because these collections aren't as cool as the Season sets. The second release in the continuous line of Spongebob "themed" (compilation) DVDs, Halloween, includes 10 episodes that draw almost evenly from all three seasons of this awesome show. There's only one episode here actually set on Halloween ("Scaredy Pants"), but some of the others do have a related theme. For example, "Squidward the Unfriendly Ghost" and "I was a Teenage Gary". Not to mention there's the hilarious "Band Geeks" and not one but two episodes featuring Plankton, which is always good. As I said it's not the content, it's the representation. Considering all of these episodes will be available on the Season sets I have to recommend that be the way you get them. The "Halloween" DVD offers 3 episodes from Season 1, 3 from Season 2, and 4 from Season 3. For a casual fan wanting a good taste of some choice Spongebob, I would say pick it up, but for us Bikini Bottom loyalists and wanna be residents, the complete Season box sets are the only way to swim!

Here are the episodes (next to each is the season number):
01. Scaredy Pants (1)
02. Immitation Krabs (2)
03. Frankendoodle (3)
04. I was a Teenage Gary (1)
05. Squidward the Unfriendly Ghost (1)
06. The Secret Box (2)
07. Band Geeks (2)
08. Welcome to the Chum Bucket (3)
09. My Pretty Seahorse (3)
10. Idiot Box (3)

Great! But only ONE "Halloween" episode!
My family loves Halloween and especially Halloween specials. So we pre-ordered this one. It's a great DVD packed with 10 great episodes -- some are aboslutely hilarious. But buyers should note that there's only one truly Halloween-themed episode. The other 4 are loosely "spooky-themed" (i.e. monsters, robots, etc.). True, it's labeled as "Spooky Sea Tales" but the huge Halloween type and pumpkin image can be misleading. Nonethless, is this DVD worth it? YES. The extra 5 episodes make it even more of a value. Should you buy it? YES! Is it funny? YES!! This is SpongeBob at his best! Enough reading. Go buy and enjoy.
