At this summer season’s San Diego Comedian-Con, when the particular was introduced, Photo voltaic Opposites‘ creators revealed it will be a direct sequel to the 2022 Halloween particular.

It’s very enjoyable.”
Korvo, because it’s beforehand been established, hates being scared, and due to this fact hates the whole “spooky-ass month” of October. The primary Halloween particular noticed Terry and Jessie scheming to have the best-decorated dwelling on their block—to the purpose of re-animating a chatty Crypt Keeper from a close-by cemetery, to Korvo’s supreme annoyance.
