On September 1 each year, Shudder begins the 61 Days of Halloween countdown. Along with the library of movies that are already on the horror streaming service, there are new films and series added. Each year also features the Ghoul Log, which is a Halloween flavored take on the Christmas tradition. There is also a Halloween Hotline where callers can receive live, personalized movie recommendations from head curator Samuel Zimmerman. It is a real treat for fans of the season.
This year sees the return of the Ghoul Log and Halloween Hotline, but the channel is going further that it ever has before. There will be an unprecedented lineup of eleven acclaimed, must-see new films and new original series, along with other special treats to be announced. Shudder will truly be “The Home for Halloween.”
“Halloween is the best time of year on Shudder, and this Halloween, we’re featuring the best lineup of programming in our history,” said Shudder General Manager Craig Engler. “We have 11 original and exclusive movie premieres, including a new film from horror master Dario Argento, a Halloween special from superstar host Joe Bob Briggs, and three new series — from Bryan Fuller, The Boulet Brothers, and the producers of Eli Roth’s History of Horror.”
