We might still have a week left before it officially becomes October, but it’s never too early to start planning the horror movies we’ll be watching in honor of Halloween. Of course, plenty of us have our own physical media collections that allow us to watch whatever we want, whenever we want, but it’s hard to deny how convenient it is to have streamers make our favorite titles available to us immediately.
HBO Max has debuted its upcoming slate of October releases, spanning all genres. In addition to debuting a variety of contemporary hits, the streamer will highlight a number of classics. Specifically in the horror realm, the streamer will include multiple installments of the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, Poltergeist, Trick ‘r Treat, and more.
