Ardal O’Hanlon to play The Ghastly Ghoul

New animated show for Sky Kids

Ardal O’Hanlon is to voice a cute monster in a new animated Halloween show for Sky Kids.

The comic plays the lead role of Gary in The Ghastly Ghoul, who doesn’t believe he’s scary enough, so disguises himself as something more terrifying to enter the human world.

There he forms a friendship with a young girl Beatrix who is facing her own fears around Halloween, as they  try to find a way to get Gary home.

The show – aimed at 5- to 7- year olds will launch on October 7 and also features the voices of  Sophie Okenedo, and Michael McElhatton 

It is produced by studios Lupus Films (The Tiger Who Came to Tea) and Dublin based Dream Logic (The Christmas Letter).

The Ghastly Ghoul is one of four new Halloween shows revealed by Sky Kids today. The others are MC Grammar’s Halloween Party (14 October, age 5+), KIDZ BOP Haunted Halloween (21 October, 8+)  and Tom Gates: A Monster Halloween (24 October, 7+), featuring the YouTuber DanTDM.
