Betty Boop's Hallowe'en Party is a 1933 Fleischer Studios animated short film. Starring Bonnie Poe as Betty Boop The Plot: It is Halloween, and Jack Frost (in his ice-covered airplane) covers the fields with frost. A chilly scarecrow plucks a wind-blown piece of paper out of the air; it is an invitation to Betty's Hallowe'en party (“p.s., Bring Your Lunch“). Betty is mass-producing jack o'lanterns with the help of her animal friends. The partygoers arrive, and join with Betty in song. Meanwhile, a hulking gorilla gatecrashes the party, and threatens to ruin the evening. Betty disguises as a black cat, and her friends turn the table on the beast, and scare him out the party. Betty sings “Let's All Sing Like the Birdies Sing“, which features background vocals sung by fellow voice actress Mae Questel along with a studio chorus. Bonnie Poe (October 15, 1912 – October 16, 1993) was an actress and voice artist, best known for providing the voice for the Fleischer Studios animated character Betty Boop beginning in 1933, starting with the Popeye the Sailor series and featuring in a dozen cartoons. She voiced her in a live-action segment on the special Hollywood on Parade No. A-8, performing a skit with Bela Lugosi providing a portrayal of Dracula. Mae Questel (September 13, 1908 – January 4, 1998) was an actress and voice actress best known for providing the voices for the animated characters Betty Boop and Olive Oyl from 1931. She began in vaudeville, primarily as an artist impersonator and played occasional small roles on Broadway and on television and films, later in her career, most notably the role of Aunt Bethany in 1989's National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. #BettyBoop #Halloween #VintageCartoons
