me olde holiday viewing lists

Made around 2012/13...lists of our holiday marathoning material. Easter here. (& in here + here. Peeps book collection was part of the Peep display many years, so evolved into all Easter books grouped up since that was so manageable & logical. The other occasions obviously have great books too, just no uniting Peep theme/altar/throne.

HALLOWEEN:

>>"13 Nights of Halloween" {should include lots of this}
>>CLASSIC HORROR {Svengoolie, TCM/FMC/AMC, etc.--scariness en generale}

Garfield's Halloween
Halloween is Grinch Night
It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (<3 all peanuts)
Mad Monster Party
Spookable Pooh
Spongebob Scaredy-Pants

Alvin & the Chipmunks Meet the Wolfman/Frankenstein
>Simpsons' Treehouses of Horror
>Holiday or appropriately spoopy episodes of good toons/shows (e.g., Hey Arnold!, FOP, Clifford, Arthur, Trek, etc., etc., etc. Holiday eps be dime-a-dozen but some be specialer than others)

  4. #25DaysOfChristmas, like almost everything, used to be so much better. At least one day of almost every Rankin/Bass special. (Thank goodness I recorded those onto VHS.) Stuff like Cranberry Christmas, the Eloise Plaza/Christmastime movies that impossibly aren't on IMDb...PE frequently ofc (grew on me a bit over the years)...
