That’s a wrap on our 31 Days of Horror! 👻🎃

What an incredible Halloween season — from our first captured orb to countless scares, laughs, and late-night movie marathons. Thank you to everyone who joined the fun, shared their favorites, and kept the spooky spirit alive all season (and pre-season) long.

But don’t fade back into the shadows yet… our Holiday Horror Playlist is coming in December! 🎄💀 Stay tuned, and let’s keep the Halloween vibes haunting us all year long.

It’s finally Halloween night, and we’re closing out our month of frights with something extra special — John Carpenter’s The Thing (1982).

Fun fact: this is the very movie Laurie Strode was watching on that fateful Halloween night in 1978 when Michael Myers came to town. Now, we’re watching Carpenter’s own chilling remake, starring Kurt Russell, and finishing our spooky season in true Apocalypse Trilogy style.

Stay warm, keep your flamethrower handy, and trust no one. Happy Halloween everyone!

It’s Halloween Eve and our moviefest pick is Evil Dead — you choose between the groovy 1981 original or the blood-soaked 2013 remake!

Sam Raimi’s classic gave us iconic low-budget horror ingenuity, unforgettable camera work, and Bruce Campbell’s legendary Ash. The 2013 version cranks up the intensity with stunning effects, relentless pacing, and a darker, more serious tone that redefines possession horror for a new generation.

Whether you love your horror campy and chaotic or brutal and modern, Evil Dead delivers pure nightmare fuel either way.

Our Halloween movie fest began with long days of canning fall’s best produce and baking sweet treats for our soon-to-arrive guests. As the scent of pumpkin spice fills the air and we add the final eerie touches to our haunt, it’s time for another film!

Tonight’s feature: Zombieland — the perfect mix of chaos, comedy, and creative survival rules. Grab your snacks (Twinkies, anyone?) and join us for some undead fun!

Halloween is almost here and we are feeling incredibly, wonderfully SPOOKY! That means it's the perfect time to settle in with one of our absolute favorite Halloween anthologies: The Witching Season!

We absolutely love it because it captures that perfect feeling of late October—the subtle dread, the small-town autumnal charm, and genuinely unsettling stories that stick with you.

We finally did it — our first orb captured at a local haunt! 🎉🕯️ The spooky season energy is strong, and we’re channeling it straight into tonight’s movie: The Houses That October Built 🏚️

We love this one for how it dives deep into the thrill (and risk) of seeking the scariest haunted house experiences. It’s gritty, atmospheric, and feels a little too real — just how we like it this close to Halloween.

Get ready to sink into gothic shadows with this haunting reinterpretation of the original vampire mythos that is Nosferatu. This period horror is visually stunning with strong performances by Lily-Rose Depp, Bill Skarsgard and Nicholas Hoult. It is a slow burn where the dark, rich and haunting atmosphere shines over the full-on adrenaline thriller experience. If that is your vibe for tonight, then Nosferatu is an excellent choice. Included with your Prime Video subscription.

Up next on the Halloween Moviefest calendar is The Girl in the Photographs. This stylish, underrated gem mixes glossy horror aesthetics with a chillingly grounded sense of dread. We love it for how it blurs the line between beauty and brutality, capturing that uneasy feeling that someone — or something — might be watching. Available on Prime, Hoopla — and free with ads on Fandango.
