Trivia

Quotes
Linus:
You didn't tell me you were gonna kill it!
Goofs
When Sally decides she's going to join Linus in the pumpkin patch, her ghost costume she was holding just vanishes.
Crazy Credits
Linus and Charlie Brown are at the wall and Charlie tells Linus that he's done stupid things in his life, too. Then Linus keeps on shouting during the credits about how sitting and waiting in a pumpkin patch wasn't stupid.
Alternate Versions
The original 1966 version had longer opening credits to acknowledge the sponsors. Modern broadcast versions and home video releases have the opening fade away after an owl approaches. One scene that followed was the gang, in their Halloween costumes, being frightened by a ghost dancing on a pumpkin. They run away, and the "ghost" then throws off his white sheet, and we see it was actually Snoopy, who continues dancing.
