I love Halloween and there ain't no Halloween Party like a Scranton Halloween Party!

Description: It’s Halloween and the office plans a “Haunted House” for the children in the community. And at an important business meeting, Michael falls into a koi pond. Meanwhile, Pam and Andy go cold calling to drum up more sales.

Don't forget to rate the episode here.

Jim is facebook and Michael is still trying to perfect his Safety Training presentation about suicide (apparently).

Michael: "Why is Christmas the only holiday that gets to have a message?"

Let me go get your stroller!

BookFace.

Oh, Michael, why. Why?

Andy: "Somebody's got a case of the 'definitely's"

Andy - SHUT UP!

Oh Andy. Why do you have to try topping Pam?

And how are they both not thinking of working that angle to get the sales?

"You were way meaner to me than I was to you." Sounds like Junior High!

Dwight: "They're mocking you with word play"

Sensitivity training? Oh, Michael...Michael...Michael...

I was kind of hoping that Michael would spell it "coy pond."

Oh, and Ryan as Edward Cullen? Yeah, Ryan probably thinks he is as hot as him. I don't think he's hot, but a lot of the ladies do.

Huge gut!

Love the list

There they go. Pam and Andy have finally figured it out!

Sex with a terrorist?

Creed: "You are paying way too much for worms. Who's your worm guy?"

Ooh, Andy, a little bit creepy there.

Lil' Soybean!

Yeah, Andy knows Miss Janet, the birthing coach?

Oh, Michael, oh, no, no.

Andy: "It's like a tiny foot just high-fived me."

Pam: "Sometimes we get so excited we even forget where we are... like a business meeting."

Michael's d**k in a box...

I am sooo ready to duct tape Andy's and Micheal's mouths shut! *sigh*

*hands Michael and Andy a shovel to dig themselves a bigger hole*

I too would choose staying late for more sensitivity training to see that video.

JIM!!!!

Oh, Jim, oh,wow.

Poor Andy.

Dwight!!! "Jim is my friend."

Phyllis: "We'll deal with it as it comes."

Love Dwight trying to work out his relationship to Jim. "Jim is my enemy but Jim is also his own worst enemy. And the enemy of my enemy is my friend so Jim is my friend."

Andy + Erin = The New JAM? TNJ

And how cute is Michael, "Jim is jealous of me. Jim is jealous of me?" with his face.

Same here. I was very surprised he spelled it right.



And for a KIDS Haunted House. Michael has no sense of appropriateness. (And apparently, neither does Kelly).

Loved Creed selling blood! That must be left over from Blood Drive.



Everybody talks about Jim's faces (Don't get me wrong, I love them), but Michael's stunned/speechless faces are the best!

Very Good Episode! Jim letting Michael fall in the Coy Pond was great, and Andy is TOO CREEPY!!!! LOL!

Sorry, but I don't really like where they're taking Erin's character...I thought she was going to be somewhat of a fresh face who didn't necessarily have to slip into a "role" yet, but it seems like the writers are pulling her a little too much away from reality at this point.

Solid episode. It didn't bowl me over but it moved a lot of plot lines forward.


One thing I'll say is I really wish they would have included Andy's costume (in Michael Jackson's "Thriller" coat) in the cold open...they kind of chickened out because of it being Michael Jackson. But the preview where it was included didn't seem to me that it would have offended anyone either way. I don't know maybe they couldn't get the rights to it or something, it was a very funny moment in my opinion.

Otherwise I liked the episode, it might be one of those that gets better on repeated viewings. Erin is a cutie pie. We'll see how things play out with her and Andy I guess. I'm not above changing my mind, since I've hit the Andy & Oscar angle hard I thought I would say that I couldn't help but get a feeling at the end.

I don't think it should have been a problem. Troy was dressed up like Michael Jackson (Beat It) in Community. Then again, maybe that's why they didn't do it. Could be too much MJ for one night. Then again, maybe they didn't have time.

I love Erin! I also love how we're slowly getting to know her. I think she's a great addition to the cast much like how Andy and Holly were. She fits in beautifully.

I wish that too!! Also, in case anyone was wondering...

Oscar - Sarah Palin! LOLOL
Kevin - Paul Blart!
No idea about Phyllis, Stanley or Pam (short blonde hair and nightgown)...anyone? Bueller?

Oh, and noticed the do-not-mock board had "Orphan" under Erin's name!!

Oh, that's who Troy was (derr ) I knew his costume looked familiar. Yeah also, I'll probably get over there tomorrow (right now I'm tired) but I thought the Community episode was good tonight in a way that the show as a whole is making more sense to me now. Sorry for going off topic y'all....

I was trying to see that...I was wondering. Thanks for mentioning! Yeah that was some good stuff tonight. (Meredith: Sex with a Terrorist )

That was awesome! And no problem...

P.S. Just found out that Pam was the character Rosemary Woodhouse from the 1968 horror flick Rosemary's Baby. Wow, talk about obscurity!

I haven't seen the picture, but I just read that Pam was dressed up as Rosemary from Rosemary's Baby. Now I'm desperately searching for the picture. If so, then I think she had the best costume!

I also saw that it had Orphan under Erin's name. I'm hoping there's and explanation in the deleted scenes.

Also, Angela as a Black Widow Spider. !!

Oh my, Michael has no boundaries! I was so afraid he'd make a joke about his "package." I wonder if the kids took any candy after Michael's suicide speech.

Jim is creative with those Halloween costumes. Three-hole punch Jim and now Facebook Jim.

Like Nurfin said, this episode moved a lot of plot lines forward. I liked Pam's little matchmaking conversation with Erin at the end.

That was a funny, yet cringy, scene. I really feel sorry for Andy. He so wants to be married and have a family.

Excellent episode!!! Who didn't think that Michael wouldn't quickly realize that by mocking himself, he would draw attention to himself...AND LOVE IT!!!

Daryll was fantastic during the cold opening and I especially loved the subtle "d*ck in a box" reference. And, Oh Jim. Young Skywalker, you are not doing so hot as "day to day" manager. You need Michael more than you would like to admit to. Aren't you missing your desk within eyesight of Pam yet? I am.

Everyone needs a good "worm guy."

Finally a episode I can love! The halloween haunted house ...too funny. Pam and Andy interactions were great...not over the top and real to what I believed the characters behavior would be.

Jim and Michael. Now, this was interesting. I loved it! What a twist on the whole thing.
Now there is a sense of the old office back in the show. Andy had the best line of the night..
One a scale of one to Giesle(sp). I think that's how I'll rate everything now

That made me wonder if Erin really knew who Andy was.


They kind of seemed like the opposite of Jim and Dwight in "Traveling Salesmen".

As for Pam being Rosemary, Rosemary's Baby was directed by Roman Polanski, so, pop culture reference.

And, I guess because she's pregnant?

Did anybody else see Mose just standing in the corner as Dwight rides his tricycle?

I thought Jim's costume was a guy with his nose in a book.

Here are some screen caps of the costumes:


Angela, Kevin, Kelly, Oscar, and Erin


Angela and Erin


Jim


Creed and Ryan


Gangsta Pumpkin


Michael (hanging himself from lack of recognition?)


Mose and Dwight (at first I was wondering who had dressed up like a farmer! )


Phyllis, Stanley, and Pam (is Stanley working on a crossword? and is that the same hat Phyllis wore to Jim and Pam's wedding?)


Andy and Meredith
