Nostalgia? Please! Halloween is Grinch Night

I've probably mentioned this one before. For nostalgia? It's good animation! Great if you love the animation. Great if you love everything written by Dr. Seuss, regardless...

But, not the greatest Seuss movie. It's probably better in your kid's memory than if you went back and watched it today. But it is a kid's Halloween movie, so maybe give it a shot if you can.

The Legend of the Scarecrow - A ShellHawk's Nest Tradition

Oh, my dear Halloween friends, I am so sorry I've been absent this year! Things are chaotic around the Nest and there's been a decided lack of Halloween-y love to go around.

Not to worry! We can start of with an old favorite, and perhaps the Great Pumpkin will allow us some Autumn blessings...

Saturday Morning Cartoons - But for Adults!

This is not a cartoon for kids! 

Who's Hungry is a creepy and atmospheric mix of Hansel and Gretel and Jack the Giant-Killer. 

Can we all agree that looking under the bed is a viscerally terrifying thing to do? A grief-stricken boy loses a part of his Ferris wheel under his bed, and - well, strange creatures happen, and magical things ensue.

Enjoy!

Halloween is Grinch Night

 Did you think the Grinch was just an anti-Christmas guy?

He wasn't! There was a prequel to his attempted sabotage of The Other Holiday: Halloween is Grinch Night. 

Released in 1977, after the passing of Boris Karloff, who voiced How the Grinch Stole Christmas, the animated TV show was voiced by Hans Conried. The songs, written by Sesame Street veteran, Joe Raposo, were still sung by the legendary Thurl Ravenscroft. The show won Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Children's Program.

Saturday Morning Cartoons-The Halloween Years

What's Saturday morning without cartoons? Click on the pic to watch.

Sorry I haven't been posting as much this week. Many things going on, which I'll share with you soon!

The Open House is tomorrow, which is the last "live" time to see all my Hallowe'en offerings in one place. Mr. ShellHawk slipped out of town on a special Mission of Mercy and will be home tonight to help, but meanwhile, I'm sweating the time I have left and all the things that need doing!

Oh, and next week, there will be some writings to read...

Hyde and Go Tweet

I remember seeing this as a kid. Still love it!

Still don't understand how the nephew thinks these are "boring."
