Family Guy Confirms Release Date for Next Halloween Special With First Look

Excitedly speaking here, I can’t contain my enthusiasm as I share the fantastic news! Your favorite animated family, the Griffins from Family Guy, is returning with a fresh Halloween special later this autumn! Hulu has graciously revealed the release date for this spook-tacular event.

While we eagerly await Season 24 of Family Guy, which Fox plans to unveil sometime next year following the conclusion of its current season (which wrapped up this summer), there’s no need to worry about going without new episodes! The creative minds behind the series have plenty more in store for us throughout the rest of the year.

During the San Diego Comic-Con 2025 weekend, we were treated to a sneak peek at what’s to come, and one of those tantalizing tidbits was a brand new Halloween special! So grab your costumes, folks; it’s going to be a ghoulishly good time!

Last year, Family Guy started a fresh wave of producing exclusive holiday specials on Hulu, and they’re carrying on this tradition this year too. A brand new Halloween special is set to debut on October 6th through the streaming service. As for what we can anticipate from the upcoming holiday special, it hasn’t been hinted at yet. However, a sneak peek into what might be in store for the Griffin family shows a dramatic transformation fitting for the eerie season of Halloween.

What to Know for Family Guy Halloween Special 2025

The latest Halloween special from “Family Guy” titled “A Little Fight Music” premieres on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ on October 6th. The storyline, as hinted by Hulu, involves Brian and Stewie attempting to compose a top-notch Halloween song. Meanwhile, Peter and the gang find out that fabricating trick-or-treat stories can lead to dangerous situations. This is the first of two new holiday specials set to be streamed exclusively on Hulu later in the year.

The upcoming Christmas special on Family Guy will follow a similar pattern as last year’s, and it’s expected to air around December. With no confirmed release date for Family Guy Season 24 on Fox in 2026, these holiday episodes will serve as an enjoyable bridge for fans until the new episodes arrive. If previous specials are any indication, they won’t differ significantly from regular episodes in terms of runtime or other structural changes.

What’s Next for Family Guy?

Over the past couple of years, Family Guy has undergone significant shifts in its broadcast timetable with Fox, but it shows no signs of slowing down. As the animated show gears up for Season 24, it’s been renewed for an additional four seasons as part of a broad agreement between Fox and several of their mature animation franchises, such as The Simpsons, Bob’s Burgers, American Dad, which will reappear on the Fox network next year. What’s more, Hulu has persisted in acquiring the franchise for new holiday specials, including this one.

If Hulu keeps commissioning holiday specials for Family Guy, even while they’re producing other episodes alongside Fox, fans can expect to enjoy the animated series throughout most of the year. Given its popularity on Hulu among streaming viewers (you can currently stream all its episodes there), it’s no surprise that Family Guy has a lot in development.
