Cory in the House

This October, Disney has decided to revive its 2005 Hauntober Fest by flooding the air with Halloween-themed movies and episodes.  Participating in the horror festivities are hits like Cory in the House, Shaun the Sheep, Life With Derek and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, which is expected to kickoff its haunted episode, "Arwinstein," this coming Saturday at 8/7c.

Unlike The Suite Life, which already launched a scary-themed episode last year, this will be the first for Cory in the House.  In the episode entitled "Who Let The Dolls Out," Cory faces a predicament since his presidential bobble-head dolls aren't selling.  He decides to try a Sophie doll.  But when Sophie doesn't like it, she scares Cory by pretending the doll is possessed.  Meanwhile, Meena and Candy mistake a friend of Newt's for a leprechaun.

Aside from Cory in the House, the network is also set to air the first Halloween-themed episode of Shaun the Sheep called "Little Sheep of Horrors."  In this episode, The Farmer watches a scary movie called "Arooooo!" while Billy goes in the farm house at night.

Also slated this month is the premiere of Twitches Too, a sequel to the 2005 Disney Channel Original Movie, Twitches, starring Tia and Tamera Mowry.  The movie, which is expected to air on October 12 at 9pm, is preceded by the premiere of Wizards of Waverly Place at 8pm.
