I’m already emotional for the stop-motion Over the Garden Wall anniversary special

Just when I thought the spooky season couldn't get any better, Over the Garden Wall is coming back for a 10th-anniversary special (and I'm already getting emotional). The animated miniseries originally captured hearts back in 2014 for its dreamy autumnal aesthetic and adorable characters, now fans will be treated to a 2-minute short transporting us back to the mysterious limbo of The Unknown.

Created in collaboration with stop-motion animation legends Aardman, the anniversary short is set to be a stylistic remix of the show's iconic 2D animation style. While there are plenty of animation software options available nowadays, personally nothing quite beats the charm of Aardman's rustic stop-motion style – for me this collaboration is a match made in animation heaven.
