DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Special Halloween Episode On Tap With Some Very Spooky & Familiar Faces

Photo Credit: JPI Studios

This week, it’s going to be another Halloween to remember for Days of our Lives fans when head writer, Ron Carlivati does a little “trick or treat” with the viewers when for the the second year in a row, he delivers a special episode that puts a pause on the current story, while moving the story forward by the end of the episode.

DAYS fans can get a taste of what’s in store in the Wednesday, October 31st installment from the latest promo up at NBC.com and posted below; where the voice-over announce sounds a lot like Thaao Penghlis (Andre)!

He says: “A princess, a mummy, some ghoulish foul play, the dead have risen and they won’t go away, so be aware of those things that go bump in the day!”

Carlivati teased the Fright night episode to Soap Opera Digest (in their latest issue on newsstands now): “Originally, I had wanted to do a parody of The Exorcist because Marlena (Deidre Hall) has been possessed, and so it seemed like perfect way to be able to have a nod back to that storyline without really doing it.” He then added,”So, because of Abigail (Marci Miller) who’s pregnant, we were able to have elements of The Exorcist, but it morphed a little more into Rosemary’s Baby!

Check out the latest DAYS promo below, and let us know if you are looking forward to this fun episode in the comment section below.

Why dont we find out that Hattie is really a triplet to Marlena and her late sister Samantha…Tony or Andre…on GH…Sasha is a con hired by Valentin and not Nina’s daughter

I agree about Sasha, Jimmy. I said it from the onset that I had my doubts.
As far as Valentin having a hand in this? I don’t know….the consequences would be ‘murderous’ ( not literally, LOL) if Nina found out. Would he dare?
I just have an observation about Abby and Gabi. What the heck? If my mother, brother and especially my husband had lain any credence on Gabi’s words?….well, yeah!! I’d run and not look back. I just worry about snake-in-the-grass Stefan, who is still in la-la-land, futilely waiting for Gabby.
I understand it may be difficult for everyone to think Abigail is here to stay, considering Gabi’s duplicitous, spiteful past.
Yet, all present incredible signs of behavior belie every real previous behavior. … am I making any sense? Shame on them for not believing her and shame on the writers for making a mockery out of this illness.❤️

A nice twist is that Curtis hired her and he is crooked as well

I’m on very little sleep right now and just stumbled upon this thread. LOL: are you talking about Curtis…our GH Curtis? If so; nooooooooo. He’s not crooked. No way. And IF Sasha turns out to be a scam, I don’t think Valentin knows about it. For all we know it could be a Madeleine scam.

But I’m tending to think she’s the real deal. But perhaps a troublemaker; not as sweet as she first seemed. She definitely has eyes for Griffin and is going to be the perfect weapon in Ava’s revenge. Do unto Kiki as Kiki did unto Ava! Cannot STAND Kiki!

Yay!

I would have nothing to do with any family who did not believe me-even when i lie to them-lol

Of course, Jimmy……that’s what family is for—-even when we lie!! LOL.
Curtis a bad guy? Hmmmm. ….that would really turn and spin everyone on his/her head!!❤️

I think Valentin believes that Sasha is Nina’s daughter. I think she is a con. I think Willow (like we need another new character) is either Nina’s daughter or the original birth mother (Brad/Lucas).

I’m looking forward to the episode. RC is such a fun writer!

ITA, I love Ron Carlivati, even though he blocked me on Twitter, lol

The show has improved greatly…just wish the lookalikes werent so over done…or we find out Hattie is Marlena’s triplet and Bonnie is Adrienne’s twin then maybe

Oh, my gosh, Jimmy…I’m home, for once…..watched today’s ep. I enjoyed the show soooo much.
Deidra Hall was phenomenal !!!!…..had no idea she had a satirical, comedic bone in her. So versatile. I was laughing out loud!! Everyone was drop-dead hilarious, except for Hope and her eyebrow.
At first, I thought it was ‘real’ , until I realized it was a spoof!!
Great show!!

It wasnt real? Then i was fooled-lol

HaHa….that’s why I love you, Jimmy…..your sense of humor !! ❤️

It is fun to watch, 4-ever…..I look forward to the next episode, and the next, and the next…..
It has been quite a while since I’ve felt so drawn ( for lack of a better word) to DOOL!❤️

The show has turned into a cartoon!

i like cartoons…some people think i am a Disney cartoon-especially Goofy!!!!

I❤️ Goofy!! Awwww….l

Agreed. For months I have been looking for a storyline (any storyline) that I can latch onto and care about even a little. Nope.

Maybe I’ll check in on the show again in a month or two, just to see whether anything worthwhile is going on.

The comparison between what I know this could be versus what it actually is seems enormous.

To be fair, though, if a scene consisted of nothing more than Lucas Adams standing there, shirtless, reading the dictionary aloud, I’d watch.

These storylines remind me of the mid-late 90’s and beyond, when story arcs were really “out there,” with no real conclusion. That’s the reason I stopped watching back then. The show was a joke. I started watching again when Eileen Davidson returned about six years ago. I stopped when she left.

I thoroughly enjoyed the episode. Such clever writing!!
Says Abigail to Andre’, ” so, you’re not mad at me for bashing you over the head?”…. hilarious. I have never been more impressed by Deidra Hall as I have while in Hattie “mode”.

Loved the episode. Knew the stuff happening wasnt real and when Abby’s baby was born I got a kick out of them doing Rosemary’s Baby. Hey I love anything that is scary. Great show as usual.

Todays episode was hilarious. Deidre was LOL funny. This episode was almost as funny as when Susan/Kristen married John looking like Elvis.

HaHa…I’m still laughing, Adam. I said on another site that I had no idea Deidre had such a comedic “gift”. Loved her!!

Though the episode was a complete waste. Didn’t find it funny and was disappointed that they interrupted “story” for such silliness. I would have liked a Halloween episode based in reality; I just tuned it out. Just once again broke the fourth wall for me.

“I won’t tune in 365 days a year… I just can’t

this gumption you fly

that fourth wall is my question

que sera que sera

Oh, my gosh, Jimmy….you were right about Sasha and Valentin. The snake. Poor Nina!! She’ll be crushed. Then she finds out Kiki is her daughter but Kevin kills her? Bears, tigers, and lions, ….oh, my…..!! Well, you did predict Nelle. Maybe? I KNOW there’s a baby out there.
Oh, another thing? “Kevin” breaks up with sweet Laura. For a minute I thought he was about to tell her he was impotent and couldn’t perform….the reason about avoiding intimacy. LOL.

Back to “normal” in Salem, Jimmy…..I find it fascinating that its citizens believe Bonnie’s eggs are alive and kicking…..still viable. LOL.
Oh….the baby is so cute….it seemed as though someone cued her to smile at Kingly, Rex. Perfect timing. Beautiful smile.
I had a dog named Rex, once.

Days of our Lives Star, Greg Vaughan, Gives Health Update and Thanks Everyone for Their Support

Greg Vaughan (Eric, Days of our Lives, ex-Lucky, GH, and ex-Diego, Y&R) provided an update on his health on Sunday, March 17th. Vaughan had previously shared that he had become ill during a trip with his sons to Colorado, and had developed altitude sickness when he was having trouble breathing accompanied by terrible headaches and landed in the urgent care.

Now on St. Patrick’s Day, Greg took to his Instagram and shared how he is feeling now, and to thank everyone for their love and support.  As it turned out, Vaughan was diagnosed with high altitude pulmonary edema, commonly known as HAPE. However, he is on the mend slowly and surely.

In his new video post, the DAYS favorite started by expressing, “I just felt such an appreciation and gratitude for everything. . reaching out. Your prayers have been felt. It’s been a struggle, but I’m over the top. And, taking this moment just to say I didn’t realize the things that I was going through. My (original) post was simply just to educate, put some information out there and some things that I was feeling, just share that information and the struggle that I was going through, which I didn’t quite understand. And it wasn’t because I’m stubborn or just because I’m a father, a man, and didn’t want to go to a doctor. It is just something I thought was so minor that I could overcome it, just by taking care of myself.”

The Daytime Emmy winner then revealed his actual diagnosis, “So, basically my situation was high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). With some good friends, doctors that had reached out to me, it kind of gave me some understanding on the aftermath, which was very, very beneficial.”

“But I’ve been resting, taking care of myself even though I live in a hamster wheel,” said the dad of three teenaged boys. “I gotta get up and, you know, do my normal domesticated stuff, eventually. I’m tired of laying down in this bed, but, I am feeling much better.”

Talking on his confusion of trying to understand what could have been ailing him, Vaughan expressed, “I couldn’t quite figure it out, even though I was emphasizing and professing to my children going on our spring break getaway about hydration. I professed it. But, even though I was acting on it, it had a greater effect on me, and for which I did not even think, because my head was such in pain, and I was in a very bad state of mind – not being able to be out there with my kids on the mountain, enjoying their time, as well. I thought I was doing the right thing. Unfortunately, my lungs were full of fluids and my head was in severe pain and even migraine pills didn’t even help. So, I just want anybody that goes into the Colorado Mountains to know, it is no joke. It is this very serious thing which I guess is why they call it the Mile High City.”

Greg had a mountain of ‘thank you’s’ to give for the outreach he received from his original post, “For everybody internationally, wherever you are, I love you and I appreciate you and just the time and the thoughts that you’ve shared with me,” said Vaughan. “I didn’t realize that it would make such an impression on so many people around the world. I feel tremendously loved and I can’t say it enough. I’m good. And I appreciate you.”

The actor concluded his video with, “To all the family and friends that have reached out to me, man, it means the world. So take care of yourself, enjoy your spring break with your families. It’s Saint Patty’s Day, obviously. I wish I could be out there.” Vaughan added, “I feel loved and touched and I can’t emphasize that enough. I’ll take better care of myself, promise you will do the same.” Before he signed off, Greg shared, “Just know, that I’m alive and well and breathing, and I’m sore. So, be well, take care. I mean it. Thank you, tremendously.”

Glad to know that Greg has been on the mend, and shared his appreciation for everyone that reached out to him during this trying time? Comment below.

Days of our Lives Star Greg Vaughan Shares Sudden Health Scare: “I Truly Feel Like I Work & Live in a Soap Opera!”

What started out as an adventure with his sons, quickly turned into a nightmare for Days of our Lives Daytime Emmy winner, Greg Vaughan (Eric Brady).

In a series of Instagram posts, Vaughan shared the sudden health crisis he found himself in.  The images show Greg with an oxygen tank to help him breathe.

The actor began to fill people, sharing, “I’ve said more than a few times, I truly feel like I work & live in a Soap Opera! 🤪 this trip was nothing short of another great Vaughan adventure!”

He went on to say that on a father and son Colorado spring break trip, he began to feel shortness of breath, feeling tired and with a headache and after two days of hoping he would feel better, Vaughan finally went to an Urgent Care to get checked out.

“I finally surrendered & went to urgent care and to my shock I learned that I was experiencing severe altitude sickness.” Vaughan admitted. “My Blood Oxygen was at 54% & my lungs were full of fluids! Blood oxygen, also known as oxygen saturation, represents the percentage of hemoglobin in your red blood cells that is carrying oxygen. Most people have an oxygen level of 95-100%….”

Providing more detail to his health scare, Greg shared, “Well, 4hrs later, a couple of bags of IV & oxygen tank strapped to my face, I was told that I needed to immediately get off the mountain! However I couldn’t, we still had another day to go & wanting the boys to enjoy their last day on the hill tops! I opted to go home with an oxygen tank, a good laugh for everyone, and I know will follow, but my boys looked after their old man & fortunately they had friends on this trip!”

The experience of altitude sickness in the Colorado Rockies gave Vaughan a bit of a new perspective, “In all seriousness, no matter your age, and all the times I’ve ⛷️ & 🏂 in my lifetime, Colorado Rockies is no joke! As they say, ‘ take a breathe and smell the roses!’ That is truly something we need to remember & appreciate! #recover”

Share your well-wishes to Greg as he continues to be on the mend via the comment section below.
