We’ve really enjoyed these nifty little FEARnet ads starring “Sam” from Michael Dougherty’s TRICK ‘R TREAT. We’ve seen the little bugger celebrate Father’s Day and Easter, and now he’s getting ready to embark on his first day of school. Naturally, he’ll have to bring some supplies, but this being Sam and FEARnet, he’s naturally packing some unusual items. Some of them alive…

Best of all, the end of the clip reminds us that there’s only two more months until Halloween – and FEARnet’s nonstop TRICK ‘R TREAT marathon.
