Freeform Releases 31 Nights of Halloween Lineup for 2024

As a self-proclaimed connoisseur of all things spooky and fantastical, I must say that this lineup of Halloween-themed movies has my heart racing with anticipation! With over two decades worth of Tim Burton’s enchanting masterpieces, spine-tingling classics like Hocus Pocus, and modern marvels such as Disney-Pixar’s Monsters Inc. sequels, it seems that the powers that be have taken great care in curating a cinematic journey through the realm of the supernatural.


As August draws to a close, it signals that Halloween is fast approaching. This is evident in the influx of Halloween-themed treats and sweets appearing on store shelves, as well as the commencement of Halloween-themed events like Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights. For entertainment enthusiasts, this transition also signifies the beginning of planning for what spooky movies to watch leading up to the holiday itself. Each year, Freeform simplifies this task with their 31 Nights of Halloween programming event. This year marks the 26th edition of this special broadcast, and it’s packed with chilling delights, such as the upcoming Haunted Mansion, Hocus Pocus 2, the Goosebumps series, and many more.

This year, Freeform offers an abundance of chilling content, ranging from timeless hits such as Halloweentown and the initial Beetlejuice, to more recent additions, plus a few premieres exclusive to Freeform. Prepare yourself for 31 Days of Halloween programming with a full schedule ahead!
