British Halloween-themed TV
Halloween has been celebrated in Scotland and Ireland for centuries, however in England it was eclipsed by Bonfire Night (Guy Fawkes Night) after 1605, hence it is not as big as an occasion there as it is in the United States. British Halloween-themed television programmes therefore were historically few and far between, but have become more frequent in the 21st century.

The Canterville Ghost
The Canterville Ghost, based on the novel The Canterville Ghost, is a 1986 made-for-television film starring John Gielgud and Alyssa Milano.
The Halloween Tree
In 1993, Hanna-Barbera produced a made-for-television animated adaptation of Ray Bradbury's classic novel of the same name. Featuring narration by the author himself, the movie explains some of the history of the holiday as experienced via an across-time adventure with a group of trick-or-treating kids. The hand-painted backgrounds, haunting music of John Debney, and Bradbury's narration elevate this to much more than a mere children's Halloween special.
