Ellen's Halloween Episode

Steve Returned to the Ellen Show Friday, October 30th!

Here's what Ellen had to say about Steve's Halloween appearance...

"One of my favorite guests, Steve Spangler, is here today. He always brings fun science experiments, and today I think he's bringing some SPOOKY ones. I don't like to be told in advance what he's going to do, I just know it'll be swell."

Watch Steve's Past Appearances

Steve is used to getting students and teachers excited about science, but what about a talk show host? Steve made his first appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show in September of 2007, teaching Ellen how to blow giant smoke rings, and he returned just a month later to demonstrate his exploding pumpkin trick. Last February, Steve wowed Ellen and her audience by letting an audience member walk on water... or at least a giant vat of cornstartch and water... and gave Ellen a little surprise when he ignited hydrogen and oxygen bubbles, right in her hands! In April of 2008, he showed Ellen how to make exploding "fire water" and filled the studio with flying potatoes. On his last appearance, Steve returned to the Ellen show with electric pickles, disappearing ink, Insta-Snow and an explosive liquid nitrogen finale. Last March, Steve got things fired up with a little Methane Mamba fire ball. After Ellen "lit him on fire..." he showed her how to float a ball in mid-air or make some toilet paper fly. But, no one could believe their eyes when Ellen laid down on a bed of nails for Steve's big finale! With all these science adventures, we can't wait to see what Steve will come up with next!
