Professor Ghoul and Shotzi have tricks and treats for viewers in their first hour-long special. Short films by Memphis-area filmmakers are on the lesson plan, including work by Valarie Morris, J. Lazarus Hawk, Josh McLane & Eric Huber, and Bart Shannon & Ryan Parker. Some of the filmmakers may even be popping by! We’ll also salute the local band Oracle and the Mountain, who perform Professor Ghoul’s opening theme.
