'The Nightmare Before Christmas' on Freeform's 31 Nights Of Halloween 2020

Freeform's 31 Nights Of Halloween Schedule Is Here & It Is SCARY Good

Buena Vista Pictures

Regardless of what the calendars say, Sept. 1 is pretty much the unofficial start of fall. That's why it shouldn't comes as too much of a shock that Freeform announced its 31 Nights of Halloween 2020 schedule the moment August ended and spooky season — aka September — began. So, pack up your swimsuits and bring out the cozy blankets and sweaters, because it's time to get cozy and watch some festive films.

Freeform's annual Halloween content lineup officially kicks off on Oct. 1 and lasts all the way through the big event on Oct. 31. Announcing the schedule a full month ahead of the TV channel's event may seem premature, but many Halloween fans (hello, it's me) wait all year to see these movies, so this announcement couldn't come any sooner.

Once again, Freeform is showing Halloween classics — including Hocus Pocus, Beetlejuice, Casper, Halloweentown, and The Addams Family — multiple time throughout the month. There are also a ton of great movies that don't necessarily scream "Halloween," but it's great they're there anyway, like Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory and The Goonies.

Whatever your favorite spooky or kooky movie is, it's likely it'll show up on Freeform at least once during the month of October. Check out the full lineup for yourself to see everything that's coming up:
