About this animated special

Raggedy Ann and Andy help a lonely pumpkin and a boy whose aunt won't allow Halloween.

Plot summary

Raggedy Ann (June Foray), Raggedy Andy (Daws Butler), and their dog, Raggedy Arthur, notice how cruel their neighbor Aunt Agatha (Foray) is and how sad her nephew Ralph (Steven Rosenberg) is on Halloween but realize that Aunt Agatha has a Scrooge-like attitude towards the holiday. At first, the Raggedeys seem upset with how Aunt Agatha treats her nephew and think that she's really mean to treat him in such a way by not allowing Ralph to go trick or treating with the rest of the children in the neighborhood. However, they come up with an idea on how to make Ralph happy. Raggedy Ann reasons that if there's an unhappy little boy where they live, then there must be an unhappy pumpkin somewhere out there waiting for a little boy. The Raggedeys set out to find the pumpkin who's just right for Ralph.
