Where To Watch
18 photos of TV stars in Halloween costumes to get you in an October mood
Need some inspiration for a Halloween costume? Look no further than 'The Love Boat' and 'Lassie.'
Halloween is a wonderful holiday, but it does come with its unique dilemmas. "What am I going to wear this year?" And, "What candy am I going to eat first?"
Well, we can help you a bit with the first question. At the same time, we can look back at some charming behind-the-scene pictures from television's past. For decades, Halloween episodes have been a staple of fall TV. People just love to dress up — even those who have to dress up every day for a living.
Here are some Halloween promotional photos from classic shows, featuring pirates, devils, felines, Zorro, witches and other assorted ghoulies.
