Halloween Marathons: Wherever you look, Halloween is in the air — and airwaves. Turner Classic Movies continues its two-day movie marathon, devoting much of the day to foundational Universal classics from the 1930s: The Invisible Man (1 pm/12c), Dracula (2:15 pm/1:15c) with Bela Lugosi, a Boris Karloff bonanza with The Mummy (3:45/2:45c), Frankenstein (5:15/4:15c) and Bride of Frankenstein (6:30/5:30c). The channel turns to real-life chills in prime time with 1967’s In Cold Blood (8/7c), then reverts to cult favorites overnight, starting with George A. Romero‘s Night of the Living Dead (12:30 am/11:30c).

Syfy‘s full day of more contemporary horror flicks builds to back-to-back showings of 2022’s Halloween Ends (8/7c), the last in the franchise — for now. For more light-hearted Halloween fun, FXX airs 17 consecutive hours of “Treehouse of Horror” episodes from the archives of The Simpsons, starting at 7 am/6c. Antenna TV presents a Bewitched Witch-O-Ween Marathon (starting at 5 am/4c) of the classic sitcom starring Elizabeth Montgomery as the twitchy Samantha Stephens.
