Calling all goblins, monsters, and witches!
Freeform is getting into the Halloween spirit once again with another year of wicked October programming. The highly anticipated 31 Nights of Halloween is back all month long with a lineup of Halloween films, including beloved classics and recent hits. From October 1-31, join us as we celebrate Halloween at home with haunting movies, including fan favorites Ghostbusters (1984), Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride, Hotel Transylvania 2, Goosebumps (2015), and Shrek. New to the film lineup this year are Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, Fright Night (2011), Jaws, Cowboys & Aliens, and Men in Black II, among several others.
In addition, fans in the Los Angeles area will get a chance to come face-to-face with some of these films at Freeform’s Halloween Road, which will be held at Heritage Square Museum from October 1-5. Tickets are on sale beginning today and can be purchased here.
