🎃 Freeform’s 31 Days of Halloween Schedule Has Arrived 🎃
Gather ’round all of you movie obsessed ghosts, ghouls, and goblins! Freeform is officially retiring their notorious 13 Nights of Halloween, but don’t freak out just yet. They’re expanding the special cinematic event to last the entire month, not just two weeks! So, now we’ve got 31 days of your favorite spooky Halloween inspired films and we are having just a bit of trouble keeping our cool.
They’ll be playing some of the season’s most iconic movies and Freeform frequent flyers such as Hocus Pocus, The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Goonies, and The Addams Family, in addition to some Freeform newcomers including Warm Bodies, Maleficient, and Hotel Transylvania. Of course, they’ve thrown a couple of curveballs in there as well, but even though The Parent Trap, The Breakfast Club, and Disney’s Frozen don’t exactly scream “Halloween!” we will most likely be watching them anyway.  Hocus Pocus fans will surely not be disappointed as the cult classic Bette Midler film is playing almost every day, leading up to an all-day marathon on Halloween itself!

Which movie(s) are you most excited to watch? What’s your favorite Halloween movie ever? Let us know!
Freeform’s 31 Days of Halloween kicks off on October 1st – enjoy!
Having studied Media & Writing at James Madison University, I always knew that I wanted to do some type of creative writing, but being able to write about zombies, Starks, and superheroes on a daily basis for Fan Fest is my actual dream. While I probably shouldn’t be as proud as I am to be so similar to Nick Miller, I do hope to one day write my own “Pepperwood Chronicles’.
