Halloween 2024 is in full swing on Freeform, the Disney-owned cable network. As is tradition, Freeform is celebrating with 31 Nights of Halloween, a programming schedule filled with spooky selections and (mostly) family-friendly flicks.

If you’re channel-surfing and hoping to stumble upon a favorite Halloween movie, there’s a good chance you’ll find yourself drawn to Freeform. Throughout October, by our count, “Beetlejuice” will air 10 times on on the channel while “Hocus Pocus” will grace the waves 20 times.

Of particular note, a few selections are new to the schedule this year for Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween:

“The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad,” the 1949 film from Walt Disney Animation Studios which pairs the stories “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” and “The Wind and the Willows” into a feature-length presentation
“Something Wicked This Way Comes,” the 1983 Disney film based on Ray Bradbury’s book
“Arachnophobia,” the 1990 spider-infested flick directed by Frank Marshall
“Hocus Pocus 2,” the 2022 sequel to the 1993 classic
“Haunted Mansion,” the 2023 film based on the Disneyland attraction and starring LaKeith Stanfield and Rosario Dawson

*The Headless Horseman in “The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.”*

Additionally, Sunday, Oct. 13, 2024 is a Tim Burton marathon, featuring: “The Black Cauldron,” “Dumbo” (2019 version), “Frankenweenie” (2012 version), “Dark Shadows” (2012 version), “Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas,” “Beetlejuice,” and “Edward Scissorhands.”

Schedule for Freeform 31 Nights of Halloween 2024

Below is a list of Freeform’s programming schedule for 31 Nights of Halloween 2024. For brevity’s sake, we’ve only included the evening hours (it’s called 31 Nights of Halloween, after all), except for weekends, on which we’ve listed the full day’s programming.

We’ve also edited out a few movies that are technically part of 31 Nights of Halloween, but are not particularly spooky. “Encanto,” “The Incredibles,” “Mrs. Doubtfire,” and a few other films are inexplicably slated to air throughout the month, but we’ve only stuck with spooky movies. As such, you’ll see some days listed as empty.

“Pop N’ Knowledge edition” indicates a screening with pop-up fun facts.
