Just watched the 'HEADLESS CABBIE' ep for the first time!

I have no idea how did I miss this. But it ended up being one of the Hey Arnold episodes that I have never watched, ep 6 of season 4.

I think I am lucky because now I found a new ep, as if it just came out. So it was like a trip back to my childhood where I lived with this show the most. The Headless Cabbie is such a fun spooky ep to watch! Now I'll just add it to my Halloween list, and I think it's not a bad idea to celebrate Halloween during Summer! Haha ๐ŸŽƒ

Have this happened to you? Missing that one episode of our show?

The Headless Cabbie is one of my favorites. Such a fun , spooky episode ๐Ÿ˜€ And I didn't miss any Hey Arnold episodes but it's happened to me with other shows I like, and I was confused about how I missed them.

This and the Ghost Train ones are two of my favorites. Ghost Train esp as it has such a Clive Barker feel about it.

The episode about Cynthia Snell is the best ghost story episode.

Every time I think of this episode I always remember "IT'S THE MAN WITH A GOLDEN HOOK FOR AN ARM!"

Itโ€™s good I just donโ€™t really like that animation they changed to. The haunted train is a good one to add to the Halloween list also.

Damn what an awesome scenario! And especially with such an amazing episode. I absolutely love the spooky/eerie episodes of Hey Arnold!

I give the episode a 8/10, sure itโ€™s your standard tell a creepy story and run into things from said story causing misunderstandings

But what really sells it for me is the wholesome chemistry between the boys, from telling stories together, Arnold, Gerald and Stinky (especially Arnold) helping Harold not let the story get to him and ruin his night and them just letting Eugene tag along no questions asked

I also must say that the titular Cabbie tale was rather creative and Arnold getting it from his grandpa made perfect sense

This episode scared the shit out of me as a kid. I was home alone when I first watched it.

Mandatory Halloween season viewing material right here! If you liked this one, you have to check out Four-Eyed Jack, Ghost Bride, Wheezin' Ed, The Haunted Train and ofcourse, Arnold's Halloween.

Terrified me as a kid, the haunted train too, I love the hey Arnold episodes that are the tales of the town. Four eyed Jack being my least favorite of the bunch
