This article is about an episode in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. |
Summary
As the teens enjoy Halloween with some of their young friends, Lord Zedd instructs the putties to crash the annual Youth Center Halloween Party by disguising themselves as kids.

Notes
- Jason, Trini, and Zack do not appear in this episode unmorphed as this is the first one filmed after their actors' departure. This is also the only episode of Mighty Morphin after their departure to not feature their replacements Rocky, Aisha, and Adam as they do not appear until the next episode.
- When the Z-Putties transform into children wearing costumes, it appears that they have transformed into the Mutant Rangers from the episode "Mighty Morphin' Mutants", but with "Z" belt buckles instead of pentograms.
- Aside from the new monster Doomstone and the Key Monster, the following monsters appear in Lord Zedd's Haunted Forest:
- Pumpkin Rapper from "Trick or Treat"
- Robogoat from "The Green Dream"
- Primator from "The Wanna-Be Ranger"
- Rhinoblaster from "Football Season"
- The Invenusable Flytrap from "Welcome to Venus Island"
- Snizzard from "Foul Play in the Sky"
- With the exception of Doomstone, the Key Monster, and Snizzard, the remaining 5 monsters are from Zyu2 footage.
- The Snizzard is the only monster, aside from Doomstone, which Tommy had not fought previously.
- Rhinoblaster and Invenusable Flytrap have different voices to their original appearances but Rhinoblaster will go back to speaking with his original in "The Wedding".
- First mention of the World Peace Conference.
- Pumpkin Rapper's zord fight uses footage that was unused from "Trick or Treat".
- Bulk speculates that the Power Rangers have the ability to change size. Three seasons later, in Turbo, Justin Stewart would do just that, morphing from a child to an adult-sized Blue Ranger.
- There's also Kou the Kibaranger from Dairanger.
- Doomstone's epitaph reads, "Here is MHLCAEH". The "C" is backwards.
- For the second Halloween in a row, like last time, Alpha 5 mingles with normal humans, protected from suspicion by their assumption that he is simply in costume and not a real robot. Here, he teleports down, by Zordon's request, to a preschool to care for the children that are remaining at the trick-or-treating excursion, though we never see how he takes care of the preschoolers or how well he does so. Several episodes, in fact, show that Alpha is very good at childcare, such as For Cryin' Out Loud in Zeo.
- The Thunder Megazord and Tigerzord fight was used in a PC game Power Rangers Zeo PowerActive Words.
- Zedd's haunted forest is said to be the monsters' resting place. The same thing can be said with the Shadow World in Lightspeed Rescue, the Abyss of Evil in Ninja Storm, and the Nighlok Heaven in Samurai.
- First time the Thunder Megazord and Tigerzord in warrior mode fight alongside each other.
- Zordon says that Tommy, Kimberly, and Billy are in trouble although they were knocking down monster after monster without any trouble despite being unmorphed.
- This episode during a few reruns in late 1994/early 1995 was erroneously called "Zedd's Halloween Bash", which was later corrected.
- Doomstone and the Key Monster are never destroyed.
Errors
- Zordon says that Lord Zedd has recreated his most vicious monsters in the Dark Dimension, but the Pumpkin Rapper, Snizzard, and Rhinoblaster were Rita's monsters.
- Unmorphed Tommy holds his morpher with his hands switched from his morphing sequence.
- Wires can be seen holding Amy Jo Johnson off the ground when Kimberly attacks Robogoat in the Dark Dimension.
