The film doesn’t make full use of the Muppets or even the haunted mansion. The actors who show up are at least in good form though. Especially Taraji P. Henson as a black widow looking for her next victim. As well as Will Armett as the host of the mansion.

This was just a 50 minute advertisement for the Haunted Mansion. The jokes and humor were cheap. It not feel like the good ole muppets I’m familiar with.

Everything about this looks like a fun and funny Muppet outing. The underlying story works well to explain the tying of two franchises together. There is an insane amount of deep Haunted Mansion references, including a joke about the gift shop outside and the ride breaking down so often.
Unfortunately, Muppets Haunted Mansion just isn't fun, and the jokes largely don't land.
Strangely, there is a reoccurring joke that is a straight rip-off of a joke that started as a deleted scene from "Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure" and was later used in a standalone short called "Ominous Warning". No one from that production seems to be involved in this, but hey, Disney isn't going to sue itself.
Kids may find it fun. Longtime Muppet enthusiast will probably be disappointed by Disney... again.

Striking a fair and entertaining balance between Muppet tradition and modern Disney business, this holiday special delivers on a good time that will please young and old Muppet fans alike!

Finally the Muppets tackle Halloween! And they do it well in cahoots with Disney to promote The Haunted Mansion attraction, somehow never making it feel like they are trying to sell anything more than old Muppet humor and entertainment.
Darren Criss has a great cameo appearance and the musical moments and new songs are terrific (the music is exactly what other recent Muppet projects have been **** Muppets are just not so wonderful without song).
It has the potential of being a staple in my annual Halloween viewing in years to come.
Well done.

Welcome back (again!) Muppets! Let's see more like this one soon!
Every time you slip away, you are missed!
