Coming Soon: Little Lunch Halloween Special!

The much-loved class of Little Lunch is back for a spook-tacular special this Halloween on ABCME.

Little Lunch: The Halloween Horror Story premieres October 31st, 5PM with a repeat screening on Saturday the 5th November.

The half-hour special episode has already made waves internationally prior to its premiere. Ireland and Sweden have acquired the special in sales negotiated by the ACTF. RTE (Ireland) and SVT (Sweden) have acquired the Halloween special along with a second episode (to be aired in Australia in the lead-up to Christmas) titled “The Nightmare before Graduation”.


In “The Halloween Horror Story”, Atticus is delighted to be starring in a Halloween-themed school play. But when Atticus’ mother gets a job in Singapore, he discovers that the day of the play will be his last day of school, forever.

The Halloween Horror Story cracks open the heart of the spooky celebration to explore - beyond a scary costume - what it is that children really fear and how they can overcome it.

Little Lunch: The Halloween Horror Story will also be available on ABC iView after its premiere.
