A new, strange Halloween special is coming to a television near you. But when, how and where can you watch CBS’ Michael Jackson’s Halloween?
Following two millennials and their dog Ichabod who find themselves at a mysterious hotel, Michael Jackson’s Halloween is sure to be a thriller of a Halloween special.
Everyone is trying desperately to be the next big thing, and this could legitimately be the next It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown just because of the inclusion of Michael Jackson.
I mean, honestly what is the biggest kids’ Halloween movie since 1993 when both Hocus Pocus and Nightmare Before Christmas were released?
An argument could be made for Halloweentown — I’m still mad that they changed Marnie’s actress for Return to Halloweentown and expected us not to notice — but Halloweentown is more of a millennial classic and not a classic beloved by multiple generations
Michael Jackson’s Halloween has everything necessary to become a great Halloween movie. It looks to be Nightmare Before Christmas-esque, kid-friendly, features known voices, and, most importantly, has its own, unique draw due to the inclusion of classic, beloved Michael Jackson songs.
Here is how, where and when you can watch live and live stream Michael Jackson’s Halloween:
Date: Friday, Oct. 27
State Time: 8:00 p.m. ET
Title: Michael Jackson’s Halloween
Channel: CBS
Live Stream: Stream 1 | Stream 2
Unfortunately, in order to live stream the show, you will likely have to have access to CBS All-Access. I hate how major networks are pivoting to the pay-to-watch method from the older, free method, but that’s just the way these cash-grabbing networks are now.

The good news is that, if you have yet to sign up, you do get a one week free trial of CBS All-Access so it could definitely be used for Michael Jackson’s Halloween — and whatever else you might want to watch from the network.
