Trick or Threat is an Eddsworld Halloween short, animated by Brandon "Wazzaldorp" Turner, and released on October 23, 2015. This episode was made entirely in secret, until it was revealed on Eddsworld's official Twitter page. It features an original song sung by Todd Bryanton.

Trivia[]

  • This is the first episode animated by Brandon Turner
  • This is the first holiday-themed Eddsworld animation to be released since the death of Edd Gould (that being Zanta Claws III in 2010), as well as the first Halloween-themed Eddsworld animation to be released since Matt Sucks in 2008.
  • This is the first musical Eddsworld episode that was mainly focused on an original song.
  • This short was released on Eddsworld co-writer/producer Eddie Bowley's birthday, though it's most likely a coincidence.
  • This episode reveals that Tom was possessed throughout his whole life.
  • This is the first (and currently only) eddisode to use 4K resolution.
  • In the first part where the little girl knocked on the door, it looked like Dora The Explorer's arm because it looked dark and the short sleeve is pink (however, the girl has blond hair).

Cameos/References[]

  • When the Eddsworld logo dissolves into bats, one of the bats looks identical to Vampire Matt's bat form from Matt Sucks.
  • In the first shot of the house, Edd's broken sword from Mirror Mirror can be seen thrown into a recycling bin.
    • The bin says "RECYCLED GLASS" printed on it with the "GL" faded away, a reference to Spares.
  • In the same shot, a kid can be seen wearing a costume very similar to that of Charlie Brown's ghost costume from It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!
    • The kid is also holding a rock, which was part of a running gag in the movie.
  • The moon appears to have a face similar to the moon from the Nintendo 64 game, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.

  • In the scene where Edd and Tom are sleeping, Tom can be seen holding a Tomee Bear while he sleeps.
