The "Live" morning show shoots an annual Halloween holiday card. This year, Ryan Seacrest and Kelly Ripa decided to transform into "The Addams Family."

The spooky family was created by cartoonist Charles Addams in 1938. It went on to inspire the ABC sitcom, two live-action films, and a newly-released animated movie.
