Disney+ Canada: What to Watch – October 2021

Disney+ revealed its October programming lineup, and it’s loaded with exciting new releases to keep you busy this spooky season.

I’m a Muppets die-hard, so I’m counting down the days until I can stream Muppets Haunted Mansion. The film sees the Muppets’ resident weirdo, The Great Gonzo, spend a night inside a haunted house. What could go wrong?

If you’re into the world of brick building, you may want to check out Lego Star Wars Terrifying Tales. This creepy Lego Stars Wars adventure sees Poe and BB-8 make an emergency landing on the treacherous planet of Mustafar, the former home of Darth Vader. Something tells me Poe and his little droid buddy will have to deal with some alien jerk’s bad vibes.

And October 6th marks the season finale of the animated series Marvel’s What If…? So far, the show has given us Marvel Zombies, a spiritually corrupted Dr. Strange, and a bleak timeline that killed off the Avengers. This beautifully twisted show has only scratched the surface of all the weird places it can go. So, who knows what the show’s saving for its big season finale?

While waiting for his X-Wing to be repaired, Poe, BB-8, Graballa, and Dean (a plucky and courageous young boy who works as Graballa’s mechanic) venture deep into the mysterious castle with Vader’s loyal servant, Vaneé.  Along the way, Vaneé shares three creepy stories linked to ancient artifacts and iconic villains from across all eras of Star Wars. As Vaneé spins his tales and lures our heroes deeper into the shadowy underbelly of the castle, a sinister plan emerges. With the help of Dean, Poe and BB-8 will have to face their fears, stop an ancient evil from rising, and escape to make it back to their friends.
