Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween Movie Schedule Is Here
Freeform's 31 Nights of Halloween has become as synonymous with the fall holiday as trick-or-treating, haunted houses, or Heidi Klum in full body paint. Every October the network releases a lineup of Halloween-themed movies meant to entertain the whole family, and it's a treat better than candy corn. There's just something so comforting about skipping the crowded parties for a night in to watch a nostalgic spooky film. Plus, no questionably “sexy” costumes required.
Of course, Halloween 2020 will be a lot different for most people…which is why I'm especially grateful for Freeform's 31 Nights of Halloween schedule this year. There's plenty to keep yourself entertained all month long, including my forever favorite Hocus Pocus. Freeform's Halloween movie schedule also features classics like The Craft, Scream, and Ghostbusters—all movies I'm planning to add to my DVR for a rewatch. Beetlejuice is also on my agenda because: Winona Ryder. But I'm most excited to revisit Casper to try and figure out my childhood crush on the friendly ghost. (Therapists of the world—help?)
Anyway, the full Freeform 31 Nights of Halloween schedule is below. All times are Eastern, and the programming is subject to change. Have fun!
