Another Saturday Night Live alum is visiting Suburgatory. Rachel Dratch will guest-star in the show's Halloween episode, TVGuide.com has learned.

Dratch's guest spot will reunite her with Chris Parnell and his on-screen wife, Ana Gasteyer.  Dratch, 46, will play a "frenemy" of Gasteyer's suburban mom, Sheila Shay, according to creator and executive producer Emily Kapnek. "They grew up together," Kapnek tells TVGuide.com. "She's a woman who stands apart from all the other moms in Chatswin. She lives in East Chatswin and she doesn't subscribe to their ideals or their values. She's kind of a feminist and a little bit of a hippie. The two of them lock horns."

The episode will also feature flashbacks to when Dratch and Gasteyer's characters were kids, starring Gasteyer's own daughter as a young Sheila Shay.
