‘Hocus Pocus,’ ‘Twilight,’ & More: See Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween 2023 Lineup

Break out your coziest knits; it’s almost sweater weather. Freeform has announced its 31 Nights of Halloween 2023 schedule, and it comes with the expected hits like Hocus Pocus and The Nightmare Before Christmas (celebrating its 30th anniversary), plus some fun additions like the Twilight special edition and the Freeform premiere of Encanto.

This year is special: it’s the 25th anniversary of the annual marathon of spooky titles. As always, the programming takes place from October 1 through October 31 on Freeform.

“Hair-raising entertainment awaits with a collection of Halloween films ranging from timeless classics to contemporary gems,” Freeform teases. “Reconnect with beloved movies, including Hocus Pocus, Monsters, Inc., the 30th anniversary of Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas, Cruella, and The Addams Family, and cozy up to the Freeform premieres of Encanto, ZOMBIES, and ZOMBIES 2.”

Last year’s televised event ranked at No. 1 among primetime cable networks in entertainment across Adults 18-34, Women 18-34, and Women 18-49 (excludes news and sports). The network looks forward to continuing its beloved tradition this year.

“Over the last 25 years, our viewers have grown up with ‘31 Nights of Halloween’ as a time-honored tradition to watch Halloween favorites and connect with their loved ones during this special time of the season,” Simran Sethi, EVP of Programming and Content Strategy, ABC Entertainment and Freeform, said in a statement. “There’s something sentimental about these holiday classics that brings a real sense of comfort and nostalgia to people, and we look forward to celebrating this anniversary with another spirited lineup.”
