It’s not truly the Halloween season until horror movies are airing on television all day long, and we’re just about a month away from that happening. This morning, in fact, Freeform has announced its 31 Nights of Halloween programming lineup, and we’ve got the full schedule.
As always, Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween kicks off on October 1 and runs straight through Halloween, and it’s loaded up with family-friendly frights including Hocus Pocus, The Addams Family, Beetlejuice, Ghostbusters, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Casper.
This year’s 31 Nights of Halloween celebration will also feature the premiere of “Coven Academy,” a brand new supernatural drama series from creator Tim Federle. Set in New Orleans, teenage witches-in-training are destined to protect their city against dangerous and ancient forces.
Read on for the full Freeform 31 Nights of Halloween 2026 lineup!
