Halloween is definitely a spooky time for everyone, but also the one made for various tricks. And a lot of cartoons wanted to jump on a band wagon with one of the most celebrated holidays in America. Ren and Stimpy is no exception. And today's review is all about going to a haunted house and finding a ghost.
The premise is generic, like, the titular characters decided to get rest in one house, that is abandoned. But they are certainly not alone, there's also a ghost, who wants to scare the unwanted visitors. But then again, since we are dealing with a Nickelodeon 90s show, and these shows are known for spicing things up with some jokes and wacky moments. Probably the best scene has to be a reference to a horror classic "Psycho", where Stimpy was taking a bath and the ghost tried to scare the cat, but he actually uses the ghost as a towel. I love the fact that the show doesn't shy away from mentioning more adult films, and turns it into funny situations.
The gross-out and spooky scenes were well done as well. I laughed so hard when the characters didn't even notice the ghost or treated him as a trick-or-treater. The animation was spot-on. It captures the atmosphere well. And without any spoilers, the ending is surprising! Because it had an interesting twist with afterlife.
Definitely a funny and creative episode. Worth a watch, especially on a Halloween night and for Nicktoons fans. Not to mention that as a fan of the show, it had a lot of good elements that cheered me up.
