From Disney's "Halloweentown" to 2018's "Halloween" October is overflowing with treats

The start of spooky season is here! To welcome in the long-awaited season, Freeform has released their “31 Nights of Halloween” schedule for October 2022. The long standing tradition (that I will always remember as ABC Family’s 31 Nights of Halloween) is still going strong; including Halloween staples like ‘Hocus Pocus’ and ‘Beetlejuice,’ as well as Freeform premieres of newer fan-favorite flicks! Jordan Peele’s ‘Get Out’ and David Gordan Green’s ‘Halloween’ are among a few of the big hits joining the October schedule, along with other recent horror favorites like 2017’s Happy Death Day and 2018’s ‘A Quiet Place.’

2018’s ‘Halloween’ premieres on Sunday Oct.9 at 9:25p/8:25,  just five days before the trilogy comes to a close with the release of ‘Halloween’ Ends on Oct.14.

Check out Freeform’s schedule down below and get ready for some chilly, spooky nights with a month’s worth of ghosts, vampires, and witches to keep you company!
