‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ might be the best-known Peanuts television special, but the gang’s Halloween special also cemented its place in television history. Sure there wouldn’t be a Halloween cartoon without the holiday one, but there wouldn’t be a Peanuts gang on television for more than 40 years without ‘The Great Pumpkin.’
As we showed in our lost Disney songs list, no Disney film is set in stone from start to finish. Plots get written, songs get dropped and characters get redesigned. Looking at early Disney concept art is like finally reading that novel that your favorite movie was based on only to discover it's totally different.

We're really getting into the Halloween spirit here at TheFW. It's nothing new -- it's always been one of our favorite holidays (right after Arbor Day).

These are the songs from our childhood that really get us in the mood for trick or treating, which we're apparently too "old" to do anymore, unless our plan to dress up like a scary six-year-old finally works.

With 'Sinister' opening this weekend and Halloween right around the corner, we started thinking about kids from horror movies over the years that have really gotten under our skin -- and what happened to those kids, anyway? We take a look at some of the most memorable kids from horror films and where they are now.
Most celebrities have glam squads kept on retainer to advise and style everything from hair to clothes to makeup. Unfortunately, though, sometimes the image entourage takes a nap and things fall through the cracks -- or, worse yet, the stars try to handle things themselves and flame out in spectacular fashion
Reduce, reuse, recycle. That seems to be the motto of the entertainment industry: To “reduce” the cost of production, why not “reuse” or “recycle” movie and TV props for other projects?
