There’s streaming content for all ages, so unless we’re dead wrong, everyone will find something to spook and amuse them. (But if it’s the cost of streaming subscriptions that’s truly scary, there’s Halloween content to be enjoyed on linear TV, too: Check out our guide to Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween.)
