Good Eats Halloween Special airs next week

October keeps getting better! Not only is it Cookbooktober, the GBBO back on television, and we’re getting a special Halloween-themed Good Eats episode next week. Titled “The House That Dripped Chocolate,” the episode is filmed entirely in black and white and features creepy camera angles, creaking cupboards, and other effects “meant to evoke classic horror films while telling the tale of a cursed cookbook.”

“I’ve been itching to make a classic-style horror film for decades. I finally got to scratch it,” Brown said. His character in the primetime special plays a cook who finds a dusty old volume of candy recipes. Strange and spooky things begin to happen as he makes recipes from the book. Judging from the promo, one of those recipes will be for homemade peppermint patties. The Good Eats Halloween episode airs next Thursday, October 8, on Food Network.
