The Halloween season is upon us once again, and you might be in the mood to watch the best spooky season episodes of TV shows.
Since the dawn of television, we've seen a lot of shows have episodes that center around the Halloween season with horror-themed storylines or characters in costume for the special day.
Let's explore the 10 best Halloween specials from our favorite TV shows below.
Friends - The One with the Halloween Party
Friends has produced a lot of Halloween episodes, but season 8 episode 6's "The One with the Halloween Party" stands out the most due to the iconic costumes of the main characters and its hilarious storyline.
The most memorable part of the episode is Joey's costume as Chandler, which was a point of contention for the best friends but resulted in some of the most hilarious moments in the show's history.
The Simpsons - Treehouse of Horror
Long-time viewers of The Simpsons have become accustomed to the show's annual "Treehouse of Horror" Halloween anthology episodes which feature three spooky-related stories in the half-hour runtime.
Any "Treehouse of Horror" episode would be worth watching, but it would be wiser to revisit the first edition which was the third episode of its second season. The stories still hold up to this day.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine - Halloween
Brooklyn Nine-Nine has a long tradition of doing Halloween episodes throughout its entire run where the characters get involved in an elaborate annual heist that is entertaining to watch.
While every single Halloween episode is worth watching, it would be great to go back to the very first "Halloween" which originated the annual tradition that the series has done until the final season.

Once again, it resulted in some hilarious moments and character moments that show how the ensemble can still get along even in ridiculous situations. While it's not a big iconic episode, it's still worth watching for its premise alone.
Family Guy - Halloween on Spooner Street
Family Guy has produced several Halloween episodes throughout its long run, but "Halloween on Spooner Street" is one of its standouts due to extreme storylines that show why the series is as provocative and hilarious as it is.
