Basil Hears a Noise is a 1990 special made by the Canadian co-production of Sesame Street, known as "Canadian Sesame Street" (later formally titled Sesame Park). Premiering on CBC on December 26, 1990 at 7pm (and later airing in the United States over The Disney Channel), Basil Hears a Noise featured a prominent guest appearance by Elmo.

Elmo joins the Canadian Muppets Dodi, Basil, and Louis on a camping trip in the woods. Basil is frightened, however, so Dodi tells a fantasy story by the campfire, leading Basil to imagine that they are all in costume as kings, dragons, and princesses.
