About this episode

🎃 Get ready for the spookiest (and silliest) Halloween ever in this two-part Stories for Kids special! 🎃

Join Lisa, Cowy, Billy, and Elliot as they prepare for a haunted house extravaganza! But not everyone likes things that go bump in the night—especially Elliot, who’s more into cute costumes than scary ones.

Luckily, the Lingokids Friends are getting some expert costume advice from a special guest—two-time Oscar-winning costume designer Ruth E. Carter! She’s worked on famous movies, like Black Panther, Dr.Dolittle 2, Daddy Day Care and many more and has some fun ideas for Elliot’s bumblebee costume. But will Elliot be brave enough to face the haunted house?

👻 Tune in for tricks, treats, and the magic of Halloween as we explore how everyone can celebrate—whether you love spooky scares or prefer some Halloween fun without the frights. It’s a Halloween adventure you won’t want to miss!

🎃 Special Guest: Ruth E. Carter

👻Part 1 of a 2-part Halloween Special

👻 Stay tuned for next episode to find out what happens inside the haunted house!

Let’s get spooky with Some Like it Spooky!
