Fall has arrived and with it comes crisper air, falling leaves, and last but not least, Halloween episodes of our favorite television shows. One such series going all-out for Halloween this year is The Goldbergs, which announced yesterday that they will be giving fans a super-sized cameo for the scariest time of the year. Robert Englund will guest star as Freddy Krueger in the episode, donning his famous make-up, sweater, hat, and glove once more.
Check out the announcement video below, which previews Englund as Krueger once again.
[blockquote-0][scripttag-0]Trick or treat, indeed! It feels like all is right in the world with Englund reprising his iconic role, even just for one special episode of a television series. There's no doubt that he still looks (and sounds) the part, so could this be a sign of something to come in the future? We sure hope so. Don't miss this!
