It is barely a week into September but it appears everyone has their sights set on October. And Halloween. And Pumpkin Spice Lattes.
And with good reason. Halloween brings candy, haunted houses, scary movies (and not-so-scary movies), pumpkin carving, hayrides, and cider and doughnuts. What's not to like?
It also calls for a Hocus Pocus marathon. This week Freeform, the network formerly known as ABC Family, released the lineup for its "31 Nights of Halloween," an upped month-long series of Halloween-themed movies and programming.
In fact, Hocus Pocus will air a total of 28 times throughout October culminating with a marathon on Halloween. Other movies include "The Nightmare Before Christmas", "Monsters University", "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street", "The Addams Family", and "Maleficent."
View the complete schedule below. Times listed are for Eastern Standard Time so make sure to check your local TV guide.
We’ve expanded to 31 Nights! Check out the lineup for #31NightsOfHalloween on @FreeformTV.
