I was dissapointed when my son received this DVD as it didn't have some episodes I thought it would. Why on earth would they show Emily on the front cover with Thomas (from the newer episode "Halloween") and not even include that episode? It didn't have Flour Power either. Even more misleading is that one of the reviews here lists those episodes as being on this DVD. Unfortunately that was one of the few reviews here when I put it on my son's Christmas list last fall.

While this does have some good episodes that I am happy to own on DVD, I don't understand why they made a Halloween DVD without the newer Halloween episodes and why they made such a misleading cover (Emily isn't in a single episode on this DVD).

Recently my 20-month-old son has become a fan of trains and, specifically, of Thomas. When I saw this DVD set, I couldn't wait to get it, because it contained pretty much all the episodes I'd been hoping to catch on TV. Even better, it had a Halloween caboose to hook up to the wooden train we'd just gotten, and the price was great!
The caboose is very nice--attractive, and great quality. It hooked right up to our Maxim circus train, although it does seem ever-so-slightly bigger than the Maxim cars.
The episodes are everything I'd hoped for, with lots of spooky fun as well as some castles and a Chinese dragon. A couple of notes about the episodes: they seem to be in a strange order, because I'm pretty sure there was a reference to Thomas thinking Percy was a ghost before the episode where that happened. And Halloween, in one of the first episodes, seems to be a hybrid of Halloween and Guy Fawkes/Bonfire Night. Those things don't really bother me, but I did notice.
I'd definitely recommend this collection. It seems more spirited--pun semi-intended--than the average Thomas episode.
An additional note: I've noticed that a Halloween episode--Flour Power--is not on the Halloween DVD, although it's available on the Tales from the Tracks DVD.
Also, there's an episode on the Halloween Adventures DVD called, I think, "Diesel's Devilish Deed." Unfortunately, this segment does not have a happy ending, and the situation isn't remedied elsewhere on the DVD, so that's a bit of a bummer. But I still highly recommend Thomas's Halloween Adventures.

This is a pretty good complimation of episodes from other videos that are about Halloween.Just to let you know,Thomas Gets Tricked,which has George Carlin's narraration for the first time,was put in,because "trick" was in there,as it is a part of "Trick-or-Treat".It also has Diesel's Devious Deed,which was re-named to Diesel's Devilious Deed,or something like that to make it more Halloween-ish.This video is really good for around the holiday times.

Happy Early Halloween!

My son absolutely loves Thomas! This is one of his favorites. As always, there is a moral to each story. Not only does he have fun watching, but he learns something too. He watches this one over and over! The Halloween train that comes with the DVD was a huge bonus for him!

My 3 year old son loved this video and the toy train - I bought it back around Halloween and have since bought the Ultimate Christmas, Calling All Engines, Track Stars, Thomas and the Magic Railroad, and Tales from the Track. We love them all - Calling All Engines is his DVD of choice lately. The Magic Railroad is a great full length movie with Alec Baldwin and Peter Fonda which ties the Island of Sodor to our world. We have yet to be disappointed in our Thomas purchases! Enjoy!!

We enjoyed all the stories and "Boo Boo Choo Choo" but my kid was a little scared watching it...Better for the older Thomas fan!

I saw this product and decided to pick it up for my grandchildren. Little did I know it would become their favorite Thomas episodes! They are still watching it now. This is definetely a favorite of theirs!

Thomas' Halloween Adventures is the latest DVD in the Thomas & Friends children's series about a plucky railroad tank engine. Featuring eleven exciting episodes, a read-along story, two sing-along songs, the DVD game "Learn to count" and a character gallery, Thomas' Halloween Adventures is a wonderful seasonal treat filled with ghosts in the mist and mysteries to solve. A wholesome and entertaining addition to the Thomas & Friends series, recommended for library and family collections alike. 60 minutes, color.
