Disney's Halloween Treat (1982) was a Halloween-themed clip show compiling Disney animated shorts involving spooky or supernatural themes. Both short cartoons and excerpted segments from Disney feature films were included in the special.

The forty-seven-minute version that originally aired on Halloween of 1982 featured a jack o'lantern as narrator, and was shown throughout the 1980s. A ninety-minute version in which the Magic Mirror (from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs) served as the narrator aired numerous times on both ABC and the Disney Channel. The Magic Mirror version is properly known as A Disney Halloween. The home video that was released on VHS in 1984 features the jack o'lantern rather than the Magic Mirror, although the Magic Mirror is the version that aired until the late 1990s.
