Halloween TV Commercials 2017 Edition Part 2

As promised, here are more spooky TV commercials to put you in that Halloween mood!

It wouldn't be Halloween without the involvement of McDonald's. Here is a Happy Meal commercial with the ever-popular McNugget Buddies!



Next, here are promos for CBS Saturday morning programs from 1981, as well as a promo for two long-forgotten Halloween specials, Bugs Bunny's Howl-O-Ween and Raggedy Ann and Andy and the Pumpkin Who Couldn't Smile (featured previously at this blog)!



I can't let a Countdown to Halloween go by without at least one mention of the Monster Cereals. Here they are pushing their monster-sized marshmallows!



Here is a fun ad for the defunct party supply store iParty involving zombies hungry for Halloween savings!



This is an awesome TV spot from 1980 for the first Friday the 13th movie. I see commercials for horror movies all the time today, but there's something about the older ones that seem to have more...something. I don't know what, but I think you know what I mean!



Vampires are tough. Vampires are ruthless. Vampires...can be stopped by a set of Audi headlights.



This commercial was recorded off of a camera pointed at a TV screen, but it doesn't make watching this ad for Play-Doh's Fuzzy Pumper Monster Shop any less fun!



Finally, here is a great one for T-Mobile. Dr. Frankenstein can be such a condescending bore!



Even better, outtakes from that same commercial!



Maybe--maaaaaaaaaaybe--I'll have one more installment of commercials for this year. I don't want to go this well too often, but I have such a large collection this year that I may not be able to resist.

Thanks!

I looooooooooooooooove these. Especially the F13 one. Love that it is for the original film, then opening in a few days! So cool!

Thanks Joe! I definitely like this collection even more than last week's collection. This set seems more...Halloweeny :)

Hard to imagine a time when F13 didn't exist. Little did the world know what was about to be unleashed on them!
