Though more details will reportedly be announced in the coming weeks, the tweet includes a photograph of two people named Vincent and Victoria — who reportedly meet on Halloween night — and a dog named Ichabod, all standing in front of an eerie-looking hotel at 777 Jackson Street named "This Place Hotel."

According to the publication, the special will also feature an animated Jackson busting some of his signature dance moves.

Jackson is already known for creating the Halloween anthem, and what's perhaps the greatest music video of all-time, Thriller, so this animated feature better be ready to bring the zombies, ghouls, and werewolves.
