Line 213:
* ''[[The Twisted Tales of Felix the Cat]]'': Felix is persuaded to join the Black Cat Society, a secret society for people dressing and acting as black cats. He runs away when they try to take off Felix's mask (i.e., his face). When they discover that he is an actual black cat, they name him their king.
* ''[[Pinky and The Brain]]'': Pinky sells his soul to the Devil so that Brain can take over the world. [[Chess with Death|Brain then challenges Satan to a gymnastic competition for Pinky's soul]], and loses. However, when Pinky signed the contract giving his soul to the Devil, the Devil forgot to give him some sort of gizmo (with a really weird name and a vague explanation of its function), thus rendering the contract null and void, and saving Pinky's soul.
* [[Gravity Falls]] had one with an odd [[Christmas in July]] version of Halloween called "Summerween"; the in-universe explanation was that the town of Gravity Falls loves Halloween so much, they have it twice. [[Word of God]], however, states that the show's general theme was pretty much begging for a Halloween episode, even though the whole series took place over one summer. Whatever the case, the plot involved Dipper torn between going trick-or-treating with his sister and wanting to do "more mature" activities with Wendy (who he has a crush on) all the while threatened by the Sumerween Trickster, who threatens to ''eat'' children who reject holiday spirit.
* ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures|Tiny Toons' Night Ghoulery]]'': A parody of ''[[Rod Serling|Rod Serling's]] [[Night Gallery]]'' with Babs Bunny in the Rod Serling role. One story is a parody of ''Frankenstein'' with Elmyra as Doctor Frankenstein, Dizzy as Igor, and the Gossamer as Frankenstein's Monster. Another is a parody of [[Stephen King]]'s ''[[Pet Sematary]]'' with Elmyra's dead pets coming back from the grave as zombies. Another is a parody of ''[[Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein]]'', with Plucky Duck as Costello and Buster Bunny as Abbott. The final story is a parody of ''[[The Twilight Zone]]'' episode "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet", with Plucky Duck as the William Shatner character and the gremlin from the Looney Tunes short ''Falling Hare'' as the monster (it also, to some extent, spoofs the final segment of ''[[Twilight Zone the Movie]]'').
* ''[[Garfield]]'s Halloween Adventure'' has the titular cat and Odie trick-or-treating. But when attempting to cross a river on a boat for extra candy, the two end up in a haunted mansion. Also features [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiIJw6dIAwQ really] [[Ear Worm|catchy songs]].
