Revision as of 18:33, 29 October 2020
Since 2007, every year The Brothers Chaps released full-length Halloween toons, they would also release teasers in advance, announcing that the Halloween toon will be put on the site later. The characters’ costumes are represented as vague silhouettes. Strong Bad is the exception, as he always has on an unbelievably realistic and recognizable costume which is never the same in the full toon. Also, in every teaser, one can decompile the Flash file to see words written behind the silhouettes. There is always some action that occurs after waiting, the first two referencing the previous year's toon. The first three teasers link back to the Halloween-themed Main Page 7 (by the time the remaining teasers were released, it had become standard to not use "back" links). There were no teasers from 2010 to 2013, as there were no accompanying full-length toons.
