Meet the Adebanjos is a British-Nigerian sitcom that follows the lives of a traditional African family living in London. In season 1 episode 3, titled "Halloween", the family has fully embraced British traditions and is excited to celebrate Halloween for the first time.

The episode opens with the family discussing their plans for Halloween. Mr. Adebanjo, the patriarch of the family, is excited to dress up as a popular horror movie character, while his wife, Mrs. Adebanjo, is hesitant about the holiday but agrees to go along with the family's plans.

Their daughter, Sade, is excited about dressing up as a princess while her younger brother, Tobi, has decided he will be dressing up as a monster and scaring everyone who comes to their door for candy. However, their plans are thwarted when their conservative aunty, Funke, comes to visit from Nigeria and is horrified by the idea of Halloween.

Aunty Funke, who is very religious, believes that Halloween is a holiday that promotes evil and is not a suitable celebration for Christians. She refuses to participate and tries to persuade the rest of the family to not partake in the holiday. This causes a divide in the family, with some members wanting to follow British traditions while others want to stick to their African roots.

As the family prepares for Halloween, they notice strange occurrences happening in their house. Items are going missing, and doors are opening and closing on their own. This leads to speculation that there might be a ghost haunting their house. Mr. Adebanjo is convinced that it is just a prank being played by his wife and children, but they deny any involvement.

As Halloween night approaches, the family prepares for trick-or-treaters and a Halloween party they are hosting. They soon realize that the strange occurrences in their house are not just a prank and that there might actually be a ghost in their house. The family bands together to capture the ghost, but it ends up being one of their neighbors who had snuck into their house as part of a prank.

Despite the ghost scare, the family continues to celebrate Halloween and has a successful trick-or-treating session. They end the night with a family dance party and reflect on the importance of respecting each other's beliefs. The episode ends with the family sitting together, enjoying the Halloween festivities and embracing their dual heritage.

Overall, the episode explores the intersection of African and British cultures in a humorous and lighthearted way. It showcases the struggles and differences between the two cultures but ultimately highlights the importance of family and unity.
