A Halloween treat. Elmo visits fellow Sesame Street Muppet the Count in the latter's castle--and gets scared for a moment. But only a moment, as more friends from the television program show up, and jokes, songs, and surprises abound. Among the clever tunes: "Transylvania 1-2-3-4-5," "We Are All Monsters," and "Frazzle." --Tom Keogh

 Great video for the little ones November 9, 2002

My daughter is 11 months and about the only things she watches are Elmo and Barney (and we don't let her watch a lot of either because we want her to do other things while we still have some input). Her favorite tapes/dvds are The Best of Elmo, Elmo Says Boo, and Kids Favorite Songs II in the Sesame Street/Elmo series. She gets bored with Elmo's World series as it gets a little too serious for her and she seems to get bored. This tape is great and she doesn't seem to get scared at all. Maybe that will come later, but I don't see how a kid could really get scared at this tape. It's a stitch to me, but I'm not 2 either.
Enjoyable to watch, but a parent needed to help..... August 26, 2000

My Daughter - now 2- is an Elmo fanatic. And while she was quite excited to see the new video, it has taken 3 viewings With Mommy close by to feel comfortable with this video.Between the friendly ghosts, the rattling skeleton and the spooky organ, she was quite unsure - especially when she saw Elmo jump or cry out with fright. She was also very skittish through the Ernie and Bert in Egypt skit - with the "Ernie" statue that moved. That is not to say that she now does not love this video - I just want to caution parents that they may need to be close by to do some explaining and reassuring as it can be a bit spooky. Unlike one like the "Best of Elmo", I think this one needs a big lap to snuggle into to enjoy!
Seasonal fun, and a favorite! November 11, 2000

Our daughter, at 7 months, is already addicted to Elmo (so much for "no TV before age 2"), and has a big attention span when it comes to his videos. She really enjoys this one--more than just "Elmo's World" but less than her favorite, the "Elmo in Grouchland Sing and Play" video. The video's plot is simple--Elmo has come to the Count's castle for a visit, and to trade "spooky" jokes. Everyone in the castle takes part--a skeleton, a pipe organ, the bats. In the usual format, song clips and sketches are introduced. They include the Count singing the "Batty Bat" (that's a favorite) and the Ernie and Bert in Egypt sketch. Funny, I never even stopped to consider whether or not it was too scary! Our daughter wasn't frightened at all. Other reviewers are saying that their toddlers are a bit scared by this one, so maybe next year (we're putting it away 'til next Halloween) we'll get different results!
FUN and very contagious!!!! May 4, 2001

My 2 yr old loves this video. Although I don't find it scary (neither does she), I probably wouldn't show it to a child under 1. I don't think they would get the idea of the video. It's not meant to scare but to make light of irrational fears. The songs are extremely catchy, my daughter and I find ourselves singing them all the time-"Transylvania 1-2-3". It also teaches kids about humor and jokes. Definately a video to watch again and again.
He loves it! August 25, 2001

I bought this video when my son was 18 months old, and out of all 20+ sesame street videos that we have, he wants to see this one over and over again. He loves the Count and Elmo together and laughs at the silly jokes. He also dances to the Count's singing. At 25 months old now, this video is still one of his favorites.
