It’s virtually assured that Lacey Chabert will seem at the very least as soon as every year on Hallmark’s film schedule main as much as the vacations — they don’t name her the Queen of Christmas for nothing! Nonetheless, this yr we gained’t even have to attend that lengthy, as her subsequent film has been introduced, and it has her celebrating a distinct vacation. Chabert will star in Haul Out the Halloween, which is coming to the 2025 TV schedule this fall.
As you could possibly inform from the title, Haul Out the Halloween is the third film in Lacey Chabert’s earlier Countdown to Christmas films Haul Out the Holly (2022) and its 2023 sequel, Haul Out the Holly: Lit Up. We could also be subbing out the new cocoa for pumpkin spice, however I can solely think about that the neighbors on Evergreen Lane convey simply as a lot spirit to their Halloween decorations as they do round Christmastime.
In response to TV Insider, the entire gang can be again for the threequel, together with Wes Brown alongside Lacey Chabert. We’ll additionally see their neighbors performed by Melissa Peterman, Stephen Tobolowsky and Ellen Travolta. Simply as Haul Out the Holly: Lit Up featured a brand new household on the block, Haul Out the Halloween will introduce some new neighbors performed by a fairly particular couple.
Holding with the theme of the season, Halloweentown veteran Kimberly Brown will play Luna, along with her Halloweentown II co-star and real-life husband Daniel Kountz enjoying Marvin, the brand new residents of Evergreen Lane. Brown and Lacey Chabert have been mates for years, with the Hallmark queen even throwing the previous Nickelodeon star a bridal bathe.
Hallmark has been producing much more Christmas film sequels recently (Vacation Landing: A Payments Love Story and Three Wiser Males and a Boy, for instance), however that is the primary I can consider that takes a longtime Christmas story and strikes it to a distinct vacation. I daresay Haul Out the Halloween is perhaps the most effective Halloween/Christmas mashup since The Nightmare Earlier than Christmas.
The official synopsis describes the film as follows:
For a neighborhood as famend for its spectacular vacation shows as Evergreen Lane, the road has lengthy been modest on the subject of Halloween. However when enjoyable and spooky new neighbors, Luna (Brown) and Marvin (Kountz) transfer to the block, Emily (Chabert), Jared (Brown), and the remainder of the HOA comply with get in on the seasonal enjoyable and launch EverSCREAM Lane to fundraise for an area charity. Because the block pulls collectively to plan creepy contests, spine-chilling décor and a spooktacular carnival, new haunted hijinks ensue with Pamela (Peterson), Ned (Tobolowsky), Mary Louise (Travolta), and the remainder of the block. By way of the method, Emily rediscovers the thrill of the vacation that she and her late grandmother as soon as cherished.
It’s all the time nice to see Lacey Chabert announce a brand new Hallmark film, and I’m actually excited to see what she brings to the presumably not-so-spooky season. It’s an added bonus that we don’t have to attend till the Countdown to Christmas to see her subsequent mission! No date has been introduced for the movie but, so maintain your eyes out for updates.
