In the first episode of this new animated series of shorts, Addison (voice of Meg Donnelly) is hosting Seabrook High’s Halloween Fall Ball. She’s going above and beyond to ensure the event is fa-boo-lous. After she gives the “Shrimpy” mascot costume a makeover using stones from the Wolf Den, a mysterious power brings the costume to life. As “Monster Shrimpy” terrorizes the town and smashes everything in his path, she and Zed (voice of Milo Manheim) must work together to save the Halloween Fall Ball… and Seabrook itself.
LEGO Star Wars Terrifying Tales—Friday, October 1, on Disney+
After the events of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, Poe Dameron (voice of Jake Green) and BB-8 must make an emergency landing on the planet Mustafar. There, they meet the greedy and conniving Graballa the Hutt (voice of Dana Snyder), who has purchased Darth Vader’s castle and is renovating it into the galaxy’s first all-inclusive Sith-inspired luxury hotel. While waiting for his X-Wing to be repaired, Poe, BB-8, Graballa, and a mechanic named Dean (voice of Raphael Alejandro) venture deep into the mysterious castle with Vader’s loyal servant, Vaneé (voice of Tony Hale). Along the way, Vaneé shares three creepy stories linked to ancient artifacts and iconic villains from across all eras of Star Wars. As Vaneé spins his tales and lures the group even deeper into the shadowy underbelly of the castle, a sinister plan emerges. With Dean’s help, Poe and BB-8 must face their fears, stop an ancient evil from rising, and escape to make it back to their friends.
