One of two specials filmed after the original series, The Halloween Horror Special features all your favourite Little Lunch characters and the same trademark humour.

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.

Alex King wakes up on his birthday to find that time has reset itself and he must live through his most excruciating year of high school – all over again. Worst Year of My Life, Again! is a comedy about friendship, destiny and second chances and explores issues based around consequences, stereotypes, and decision making.

In the episode titled ‘October – Halloween’, Alex creates a cool Grim Reaper costume to wear to Nicola’s Halloween celebrations – now he just has to get to the party without getting tricked or treated! Side-tracked by an unexpected detour to the hospital, his costume proves a bit too convincing when he ends up wandering the halls of a geriatric ward and scaring the patients. The second time around, Alex actually makes it to party event of the year. But will his costume once again be his undoing or can he rise above disaster and impress his dream girl this time?
