Freeform Shares Schedule For This Year’s 31 Nights of Halloween

We’re excited to share the news that a spooktacular month of wickedly wonderful programming is returning to Freeform this October.  The network has just announced the schedule for this year’s “31 Nights of Halloween” and we’ve got all of the frightfully delightful details. 

“31 Nights of Halloween” Highlights for 2023

This year marks the 25th Anniversary of “31 Nights of Halloween” and in celebration, Freeform has come up with a spellbinding lineup of Halloween favorites sure to keep you enchanted throughout October.  Highlights include The Haunted Mansion (2003), Hocus Pocus, Little Shop of Horrors, The Adams Family as well and Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas which is celebrating its 30th Anniversary. 

Last year’s “31 Nights of Halloween” earned Freeform the #1 spot in primetime cable programming for adults 18-34. We suspect this year will be just as beloved and momentous.
