Last, but not least, Disney XD is getting in on the Halloween action, however the press release doesn’t get into MUCH detail about the Halloween specials. For example they say in the press release:

Disney XD will also host all-new Halloween-themed episodes of its popular animated and live-action shows, including “Lab Rats,” “Mighty Med,” “The 7D,” “Marvel’s Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H,” “Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja” and the upcoming new series “Kirby Buckets,” beginning FRIDAY, OCTOBER 17.

No word on premier dates and times on any of this stuff, so we have to do a bit more digging, and we’ll let you guys know what’s up. Whatever the case, October is gonna get busy.
