This year’s Halloween special for Star Wars will be released just in time for the macabre holiday. The new special LEGO Star Wars Terrifying Tales will be launched exclusively on the streaming channel Disney+ on Oct. 1, continuing Lucasfilm and the LEGO Group’s relationship. Disney has published the official key art for the special, which stars Tony Hale and Christian Slater, and you can see it now.
BB-8 and Poe Dameron must do an emergency landing on Mustafar, the volcanic planet after the Star Wars events: The Rise of Skywalker, where they meet Graballa the Hutt, the greedy and deceitful. The crime lord has bought Darth Vader’s castle and is transforming it into the galaxy’s first all-inclusive Sith-inspired luxury hotel. Poe, BB-8, Graballa, and Dean, who is a valiant and courageous young lad who works as Graballa’s mechanic, journey deep inside the mystery castle with Vader’s devoted servant, Vaneé, while waiting for his X-Wing to be repaired.

Vaneé tells three spooky stories about ancient items and renowned villains from all eras of Star Wars along the way. A nefarious scheme emerges as Vaneé weaves his yarns and draws our heroes deeper into the castle’s shadowy underbelly. Poe Dameron is played by Jake Green, Dean by Raphael Alejandro, Graballa the Hutt is by Dana Snyder, and Vaneé is by Tony Hale. Ren is played by Christian Slater, Emperor Palpatine by Trevor Devall, and NI-L8 is played by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn, rounding out the voice cast.
