Several Fans Have Made “It’s the Great Pumpkinhead, Charlie Brown” Mashup Art

Published

On October 27th of 1966, the special “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” aired for the first time, which makes this year the 50th anniversary of perhaps THE most beloved Halloween classic of all time. For many, Halloween just isn’t Halloween until they’ve watched Peanuts and the gang celebrate, and that will likely be as true another 50 years from now as it today.

The TV special of course primarily centers on Linus’ desire to meet the Great Pumpkin, a Santa Claus-like figure that he strongly believes in the existence of. Given the title of the special, it was only a matter of time before horror fans drew a parallel between the so-called Great Pumpkin and horror icon Pumpkinhead, and indeed many have mashed the two together in the form of, well…

“IT’S THE GREAT PUMPKINHEAD, CHARLIE BROWN.”

What happens when the lovable gang meets Pumpkinhead? Find out below!

AreYouWatching.com: ‘The Watchers’ Interactive Website Is Full of Creepy Easter Eggs

Published

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
