New ‘Family Guy’ Halloween and Christmas Specials Set for Hulu and Disney+ with Kieran Culkin Guest Starring

July 27, 2026 / / 0 Comments

At this year’s Family Guy San Diego Comic-Con panel, showrunner Rich Appel revealed “Happy Hell-o-ween” and “The Peter Clause,” two specials premiering this year exclusively on Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ internationally in most markets.

Halloween special synopsis: Brian and Stewie find themselves in Hell – not an annoying day, the actual underworld – paying for 24 seasons’ worth of bad behavior. When they manage to annoy even the Devil himself, they end up in charge.

Kieran Culkin guest stars as the Devil.

Christmas special synopsis: It’s Christmas in Quahog, and Peter and the guys compete to become the town’s official Santa. Peter loses, and he can either process his disappointment in a mature manner, or give fans a memorable episode of Family Guy. Thankfully, he chooses option number two.

Family Guy returns with new episodes in 2027.
