    This video used to be posted online, but the video was removed. I haven't found it anywhere else yet. You might try searching for the individual sketches.

    Over the years I have put together my own SNL Halloween compilation. Has dozens of skits that do not appear on the official release, nor have they been on any of the other "Halloween Specials" like the 1991 and 1994 episodes. The following is volumte 1:

    SNL Halloween Compilation Volume 1
    Season 17 – The McLaughlin Group
    Season 6 – Curtis Monologue/Clothes Pins
    Season 15 – Helmsley Spook House
    Season 32 – Curse of Frankenstein
    Season 1 – The Exorcist II
    Season 22 – Goth Talk I
    Season 18 – Hans & Franz
    Season 3 – Island of Lost Luggage
    Season 13 – Don’t Go Down to the Basement
    Season 34 – Vincent Price Special I
    Season 24 – Halloween Songs
    Season 7 – Scary Pumpkin Carving
    Season 3 – Curse of Watergate
    Season 30 – Mrs Dr Frankenstein
    Season 23 – Goth Talk II
    Season 7 – Rocky Horror Shop

    I do not have either the Fruiting or the Curse of the Wolfman skit however, and was wondering if you'd be interested in making a trade- your 1994 special for my compiliation. Thanks. Rich in Cleveland

    I'm sorry, but can you reupload the special, if possible?
    The original post is from 2009 and I can't find this anywhere else in 2024.

      Hi Koinzell. Under where it says "Here's the full 1991 special (link takes a few moments to load)," do you see a thumbnail of Phil Hartman in The People's Court sketch? If you click it, it should take you to a downloadable video on OneDrive, at least it does for me.

    Hi Paul, it's working but I had to use a different browser, my fault.
    Thanks for the share.
