This is one of my earliest memories of watching something that my grandma recorded on VHS for me lol. I truly wish there was a way to watch this and share it with my daughter. I honestly never knew that Rue McClanahan was the actress that played the witch and that kinda made me love it even more growing up with my mom and watching the Golden Girls. I'm sure that I'm not the only one that would pay good money to be able to own copy of this Halloween Special from so many moons ago. From the witch, to the kid, the puppets, and the 3 tasks of game show fun this mini movie was definitely worth my grandma's efforts to make me happy for so many years.
