FREEFORM’S ‘31 NIGHTS OF HALLOWEEN’ IS GIVING TRICKS, TREATS AND A TERRIFIC LINEUP OF FAN-FAVORITE FILMS STARTING OCT. 1

Freeform’s beloved “31 Nights of Halloween” returns on Oct. 1 to deliver a wickedly delightful lineup of fan-favorite films that’ll send shivers down your spine all month long. Grab your pumpkin spice lattes, because it’s Halloween time.

Eerily epic Halloween films ranging from classics like “Casper,” “Beetlejuice,” “Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas” and “Edward Scissorhands” to modern fan favorites like 2023’s “Haunted Mansion” and “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil” fill Freeform’s bone-chilling lineup.

The bewitching watchlist includes double features like “Hocus Pocus”/”Hocus Pocus 2,” “Twitches”/”Twitches Too” and “Halloweentown”/“Halloweentown II: Kalabar’s Revenge.”

Tim Burton fans, rejoice! The lineup features a marathon of Tim Burton’s frightfully fantastic films on Monday, Oct. 13, including “Frankenweenie,” “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” and “Sleepy Hollow.”

And don’t miss the chance to visit Dracula’s fang-tastic resort with “Hotel Translyvania”/“Hotel Translyvania 2.”

Last year’s event reached 22 million viewers, and Freeform ranked as a Top 5 cable entertainment network among Adults 18-34 (No. 1) and Adults 18-49 (No. 2).**
