Elvira is everywhere this Halloween season.
The Mistress of the Dark not only hosted a Shudder Halloween special, but is also doing a month-long event with Netflix as part of their “Netflix and Chills” lineup.
In addition, she’s making an appearance on ABC’s “The Goldbergs” Halloween episode this month, titled The Hunt for the Great Albino Pumpkin.
In the episode…
“Missing his Pops, Adam finds himself disenchanted with his once favorite time of year, Halloween. Beverly tirelessly tries to resurrect Adam’s Halloween spirit from the dead, encouraging Pop Pop (Judd Hirsch) to spend some quality time with his grandson. A night of mishaps and chaos turns out to be just the adventure Adam needs.
“Meanwhile, with the push and support from Joanne, Barry decides to bring his former alter ego, rapper “Big Tasty,” back to life; and a chance encounter with the legendary Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, brings Barry and Joanne closer together.”
The new episode of “The Goldbergs” is airing Wednesday, October 27 (8:00-8:30 p.m. EDT), on ABC.
This isn’t the first time “The Goldbergs” celebrated a horror icon – three Halloweens ago, you may recall, Robert Englund donned his Freddy Krueger makeup one final time.
You can watch the episode on demand and on Hulu the day after.
