Streaming Movie Suggestions
I’m here to stop you from doomscrolling and to save you from the horrors of choice paralysis! There’s only five mainstream streaming services worth a damn when it comes to Halloween horror (and if you’re a Criterion or Shudder subscriber you certainly don’t need my recommendations), and good news, the two best ones are free!
Tubi really needs to be your streaming home this Halloween season. With nearly 200 horror movies that I have personally seen and vouch for, absolutely no one else even comes close to their catalog. The app is free, the movies are free, so what’s holding you back?
If the answer is “ads,” well then I can’t entirely blame you…BUT there’s another great option! Kanopy partners with your local library to offer another deep bench of streaming favorites, this time ad free! Amazon Prime also has a pretty deep bench, while HBO Max and Peacock have a few heavy hitters on their roster.
Want to know what I think of each movie? Click through on the Letterboxd link and get taken directly to my shortform review!
Want to hear a spooky story? Curl up by the virtual fireplace, make yourself a mug of hot apple cider and enjoy these classic radio programs hosted by the best names in horror. Vincent Price reads Edgar Allan Poe, Christopher Lee reads Frankenstein, all this and more for a cozy, scary time.

These links, updated throughout the month, feature capsule reviews of the best and sometimes underseen gems from the past century of horror films.

Halloween Links
The origin point of my love of Halloween. Matt’s been blogging about everything seasonal for more than 20 years, and is a must-follow every Halloween. Make sure to check out his Halloween Jukebox, chat with the devoted in Dino Drac After Dark and listen to the Purple Stuff Podcast while you’re there.
This album, along with its two sequels, are genuinely some of the greatest modern-day callbacks to Halloween yore. Keller perfectly captures the verisimilitude of pretty much every genre of Halloween music, from the ‘60s surf rock to ‘80s horror movie theme songs to local rock operas. Everything is featured and everything is pitch perfect. I genuinely forget that these are modern throwbacks half the time I hear one come up on my Halloween mix. They’re must-buys.
Start your day with Laura Hall’s Halloween email newsletter. Usually just a quick bite of some fun links, images, videos or more, it’s the perfect way to get into the season while you eat your Count Chocula.
This narrative nonfiction podcast details the creation of the infamous Chicago World’s Fair while also detailing the crimes of H.H. Holmes, often considered one of America’s first serial killers! Fun fact, I appear in several small roles throughout!
Monsters Never Die
A horror movie podcast that I host with Matt Curione, editor-at-large at Talk Film Society. Each episode of Monsters Never Die covers a film with a monster—human or otherwise—as well as every one of its sequels, remakes, and rip-offs. We’ve covered 247 films so far in only 38 episodes of the show. No other podcast gives you this much bang for your buck!
Start at the beginning with our journey through the Universal Monster films, or hop around. Highlights include our episode on the Invasion of the Body Snatchers films, every King Kong movie, Gremlins knock-offs, and horror musicals!
