“Something Wicked This Way Comes” to ’31 Nights of Halloween’ on Freeform. Our annual leave the TV on the Freeform for hours at a time while we go about our business will arrive this year again on October 1st, 2024. This year we have a few new additions like ‘Something Wicked this way Comes” and Muppets From Space, along with classics like Hocus Pocus, Goosebumps, and of course the Tim Burton marathon.
Furthermore, new this year is The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad which celebrates the 75th Anniversary.
As the air turns crisp and the nights grow longer, a long-awaited Halloween tradition returns: Freeform’s iconic “31 Nights of Halloween.” From timeless classics like Hocus Pocus, Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Disney and Pixar’s Monsters, Inc., to modern favorites like Cruella, Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story of TERROR!, and the Disney+ series Goosebumps, the program offers a perfectly curated selection of eerie entertainment—all October long.
New to this year’s lineup are Arachnophobia, Hocus Pocus 2, Something Wicked This Way Comes, The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad, Muppets From Space, and the broadcast television premiere of Haunted Mansion (2023).
Grab your popcorn, dim the lights, and prepare for a month of hauntingly good entertainment!
