Freeform Reveals Full "31 Nights of Halloween" Television Schedule

The 2020 lineup is stacked with spooky shows and scary movies.

Freeform has revealed the full lineup for this year's 31 Days of Halloween. The 2020 lineup is stacked with spooky shows and scary movies. The graphic features several highlighted programs, and the full schedule can be found below.


There's a little something for everyone on during Freeform's Halloween celebration this year. For the younger crowd, Decorating Disney: Halloween Magic is a must-see, and family-friendly films like Casper, Hotel Transylvania (1, 2, 3,) Monster's Inc., Halloweentown, and others will be great for a not-so-scary night on the couch.


For the big kids, The Simpson: Treehouse of Horror marathon is not to be missed, nor are flicks like Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Mummy, Sleepy Hollow, Corpse Bride, Scream, and The Craft.


Several screenings of the cult classic Ghostbusters (1984) and Ghostbusters II will be in heavy rotation. On October 26, the re-boot Ghostbusters (2016) makes its premiere on Freeform. Fans will also have several chances to catch the original The Addams Family (1991) and Addams Family Values.


As always, the schedule's crown jewel is one of the great Halloween gems of all time - Hocus Pocus. The family-friendly classic will air several times throughout the month. For the grand finale on October 31, The Addams Family (1991) kicks off an early prime time at 5:10pm EST, followed by Addams Family Values, Hocus Pocus, and the original Ghostbusters (1984).
