Fun Freetime: Power Rangers Halloween

Saban’s Power Rangers Megaforce is celebrating the Halloween season in a SUPER CHARGED way. Fans are in for a treat with a variety of Power Rangers activities throughout October.

To kick off the month, the Power Rangers have a POWERED UP Halloween safety campaign, highlighting safety tips for kids to use while trick-or-treating. 

Fans can also attend the Power Rangers Weekend at the Nickelodeon Suites Resort in Orlando, Fla., October 18-20. This action-packed weekend will feature a “Train Like a Ranger” lunch, meet-and-greets with the Power Rangers and a sneak peek screening of the Halloween special, “Raising Spirits,” before it airs on Nickelodeon. Attendees will also receive MEGA giveaways.

For even more Halloween fun, the Power Rangers have joined forces with Spirit Halloween for a second annual Power Rangers “Spirit of Children Week,” in which the Power Rangers Megaforce will visit 16 hospitals across the country to entertain young patients, bring to life the Halloween spirit and provide them the opportunity to meet some of their favorite superheroes!

In addition, Power Rangers costumes, including all-new Power Rangers Megaforce costumes, are now available at Spirit Halloween locations nationwide, the largest seasonal Halloween retailer in North America, and online at SpiritHalloween.com.

On October 19 at 1:00 p.m. (ET/PT), Nickelodeon will air an all-new Power Rangers Megaforce Halloween-themed episode, “Raising Spirits.” During the special, which takes place on Halloween, the scariest night of the year, the Rangers come across a mysterious cloaked Medium who conjures “visions” of monsters past, with many spooky twists and turns along the way!

Watch all-new episodes of Power Rangers Megaforce every Saturday on Nickelodeon at 1:00 p.m. (ET/PT). For more information, please visit PowerRangers.com/Halloween.
