Casper's Scare School Review and GIVEAWAY!

I recently had the pleasure to watch and review the first season of Casper's Scare School. With Halloween coming up, I thought it was the perfect time to watch this series. Casper's Scare School is a CGI animated series starring Casper the Friendly Ghost.The first season premiered on Cartoon Network in 2009 and this year a second season will air starting in October.

I remember that my older daughter used to love to watch the Casper movies when she was little. This time around I watched the episodes with my little one, Buttercup.

She absolutely loved it. She's 7 years old and thought that Casper's Scare School was so much fun. We both loved the characters; they are well done and just scary looking enough. However, they are not so scary that young kids would be afraid.

Like most kids, Casper loves hanging out with friends — but his friends are real monsters! And at Scare School, where they have been “molding monstrous minds for 10,000 years,” that’s a good thing. In fact, the scarier the better! Whether howling at the moon, or taking off their arms to literally ‘lend a hand,’ these are definitely not your average students and Casper is no ordinary ghost. He’s a unique spirit who’d rather make friends than frighten, and he just doesn’t understand why humans (a.k.a. “fleshies”) and creatures can't get along, especially since his best friend IS a “fleshie”! Casper’s determination to be a friendly ghost makes his education at Scare School a challenge, but with his big heart and the support of his friends, Casper is sure to succeed no matter what obstacles head his way.

 

With the start of a brand new school year, Casper’s adventures at Scare School have gotten a whole lot crazier, a whole lot creepier and even more “fleshie”-frightening than ever before! So get ready because Season 2 of Casper’s Scare School is filled with enchanted ghost ships, possessed jack-in-the-boxes, mischievous superheroes, herds of Bog Monsters, boys that turn into ghosts and werewolves that want to be boys…and that’s just the beginning!

 

Be sure to check out Casper's Scare School on Cartoon Network starting October 2, 2012! The series, starring everyone’s favorite ghost,Casper the Friendly Ghost®, features twelve-minute episodes that will air Monday through Friday at 11:00 a.m. EST/PST.

Classic Media has generously offered 2 lucky Adventures of a Homeschool Mom readers their own copy of Casper's Scare School Season One DVD.
