Lucasfilm and the LEGO Group have announced the latest Disney+ exclusive following the announcement thatLEGOStar WarsTerrifying Talesis coming to the streaming service on October 1, to help kick off the Mouse House’s celebration of all things spooky. This is the second LEGOStar Warsspecial to hit the platform following the well-received release oflast year’sHoliday Special, which poked fun at the famous legacy of the original 1978 version George Lucas would rather pretend didn’t exist.
Terrifying Talespicks up after the events ofThe Rise of Skywalker, with Poe Dameron and BB-8 making an emergency landing on the planet of Mustafar, the same place Anakin Skywalker cemented his extra crispy turn to the Dark Side inEpisode III: Revenge of the Sith. Our intrepid heroes encounter Graballa the Hutt, the new owner of Darth Vader’s castle who plans to turn it into the galaxy’s first all-inclusive luxury hotel for the Sith, to give you an indication of the tone theStar Warsspecial is aiming for.
