Halloween may be over a month away, but Freeform is making no haste when kicking off its own festivities. The network has prepared a 31-day-long roster of Halloween-themed programming pulled from their holiday catalog. Fans can expect to see classics such as Ghostbusters, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Hocus Pocus return to television. Other titles that will be included this year will be Alien, Jaws, and Fright Night remake released in 2011. The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror will interlude between select Halloween movies, and the featurettes include parodied takes on the horror genre.
