Halloween Gone Wrong: Crazy turns in famous series

Halloween Gone Wrong: Spooky season's crazy turns in famous series - From 'Friends' to 'Stranger Things'

As the claws grasp the feisty beasts, the howls suggest the chilling danger, and the broken skeletons drop from the ceilings, everyone knows that the spooky season has arrived! Halloween might keep the people on their toes, but multiple renowned series have always delivered classic episodes, where somehow everything goes wrong. Whether it’s the relationships or grotesques, it’s meant to twist the scripts, reminding curse of the spooky day. So, here’s a look at the Halloween Gone Wrong moments from the series!

‘Friends’

Monica and Chandler

Well, Velveteen Rabbit might be brown and white, but Monica loves Chandler. So, “It was either a pink bunny, or no bunny at all!” And the chaos followed with Chandler’s “No bunny at all! No bunny at all!” Phoebe was in a dilemma whether to reveal her twin sister’s beau that he was being lied to or not. Meanwhile, Ross, in his ‘Spud-nik’ costume, was trying to impress his girlfriend in the nurse’s outfit with hand wrestling. Rachel, who was newly pregnant, wanted to channel her maternal energy, so she emptied the entire bowl of chocolates by giving it to someone who appreciated her – and then resorting to signing cheques for little children. Well, how can we can’t forget Joey, who came as none other than his best friend, Chandler Bing. For the chaos and unbearable laughter, ‘Friends’ aced the Halloween Gone Wrong theme.

‘Stranger Things’

Stranger Things

Should you see the initial signs of something turning darker and dangerous, call it out…as it only goes down the hill. In the second season of the spooky ‘Stranger Things,’ the regrets start from Eleven not being allowed to go trick-or-treating, resorting to candies, and horror film with Jim Hopper. After being severely mocked by Erica, the boys: Lucas, Will, Mike, and Dustin, go to school as Ghostbusters in their costumes. Turns out, they are the only ones in the outfits from the entire school. Twisting tale acts on, and Will ignores another horrifying experience, leading to his mother finding out his scary drawings. Meanwhile, Nancy cannot help but remember how her friend disappeared – and wishes to investigate, but doesn’t. At the end, Dustin finds a creature near his dustbin, which later in the series turns into an unexplainable, grotesque figure.

‘The Vampire Diaries’

Elena and Vicki

When it’s about ‘The Vampire Diaries,’ the stakes are high – and also in Vicki Donovan’s chest in the Halloween special episode. As the newly turned vampire who is in the thirst for blood, Vicki is trying to figure herself out at the crowded Halloween party of high schoolers. While Damon is exuding all his charm towards Elena, she is busy eye-rolling him. In the devastating moment, when Vicki attacks Elena’s brother, Jeremy, Stefan has no option but to kill the feral teen. Marking one of the major deaths in the season, the moment stunned the fans.

‘The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina’

Dark Baptism

In ‘The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,’ the Halloween turns omen when it’s her dark baptism day. Sabrina Spellman runs away in the middle of completing her ritual, questioning the centuries-old tradition of pledging her soul to the dark lord and becoming a full witch. As she refuses to sign the ‘Book of the Beast’ with her blood, Sabrina awakens the demons, putting everyone in danger.

‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’

Jake and Amy

‘Nine-Nine, Folks!’ After a series of contemplation and dark visuals that gave chills down the spine, ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ gave one of the best episodes in history, where everything went right on Halloween. The well-known bets to win the title of ‘Ultimate Detective/Genius’ have been a tradition in every season. However, when Jake Peralta proposed to Amy Santiago during the heists with the golden cummerband in the evidence room, proving that he is not “yuh boring” and can keep her on her toes – the jaws dropped (and some shed tears too, along with Charles Boyle).
