Disney Plus Is Getting A Muppets Halloween Special Featuring Gonzo In The Haunted Mansion

Disney's second annual Hallowstream on Disney+ will be making Muppet history this year with the addition of The Muppets Haunted Mansion, the first Muppets Halloween special ever. Gonzo has to spend one night in the iconic Gracey Manor, known to Disney fans as the Haunted Mansion.

"Inspired by all four of the iconic Disney Haunted Mansion attractions located across the globe at various Disney Parks, the Muppets Haunted Mansion includes many hidden easter eggs for Disney fans and "Muppet-ized" sets," Disney said in a press release.

From the sound of it, we're not going to get Haunted Mansion references from just Disneyland and Walt Disney World, but also Tokyo Disney and Disneyland Paris where it is known as the Phantom Manor.

Ed Mitchell and Steve Morrell are once again returning to the music of the Muppets as the special will features three new original songs: Rest In Peace, Life Hereafter, and Tie The Knot Tango. The last of which could be a reference to the Ghost Host himself or Contance Hatchaway, the Black Widow Bride.

The Muppets Haunted Mansion will join the Lego Star Wars for its upcoming Halloween special, which is also part of Hallowstream this year, with more announcements to come.

The Muppets Haunted Mansion will air exclusively on Disney Plus, October 8.
