The other threads are more than 5 years old, so this is a reboot.

YouTubers, TV shows, movies, anything that preferably is widely available, and fun. You can recommend horror movies if you want, but the focus should be fun. So Simpsons Treehouse of Horror would count, Saw movies wouldn't, but feel free to suggest anything.


For years, I was a fan of Cinemassacre Monster Madness. Every year James Rolfe would review horror or sci-fi movies. One review a day all October. Eventually, he gave it up to a lack of material, and having covered all the major horror franchises.
I think these might be the originals. A long time ago the original reviews were pulled due to copyright reasons and inferiour versions with stills instead of clips were used.

AVGN usually had a Halloween episode, and I remember them being good.

A similar show is The Twilight Tober Zone by some guy at Channel Awesome. Same concept. Reviewing every episode of the original Twilight Zone, complete with behind the scenes information, one a day, for October.
This year appears to be the last one, unless he branches out into other shows like The Night Gallery or the 80s Twilight Zone series.
I recommend the compilation versions, as those are just the reviews. A few of the stand alone episodes open with an unfunny Doug Walker skit or a shit tier recreation of the episode.

A final recommendation is Super Best Friends Shitstorm compilations. I've not seen these in years so I could be wrong here. They played a bunch of horror games, one a day, for October. At 40 minutes to an hour per video, each season is a long watch but the fan re-edits get right to the good stuff. One thing I remember is that the episodes were recorded in batches, so they get increasingly easy to scare as a batch wears on.

I don't remember any specific fan edit, but I had some by this user saved so I assume they're good.
I do remember their Silent Hill Downcoming streams where he accidentally throws an axe into the abyss. ...It's funnier in context. Again, fan edits help you here.
 
I always loved the first spongebob one, the ending brain reveal is just the right amount of scary for kids and you get just enough time to linger on it before spongebob undercuts it with his cheery nature.

For years, I was a fan of Cinemassacre Monster Madness
His second one got me into godzilla and eventually the wider tokusatsu genre, bastards the reason I've wasted hundreds on plastic belts and figures.
 
Charlie Brown Halloween special is all you need nigga
And Garfield. Neither one is as good as their respective Christmas specials, but are required viewing. Preferably back-to-back.

I'll also suggest "Catspaw", a second season Star Trek episode. Kirk and the gang run afoul of witches and get trapped in a haunted castle. Or do they? Written by Robert " I also did Psycho" Bloch and originally aired October 27, 1967. Bloch also wrote the Jack the Ripper episode "Wolf in the Fold", but that proto-slasher was Trek's Christmas week episode that year.
 
i always look forward to red letter media's halloween specials and the adorable halloween themed shirts jay wears. 🧩

I only added Cyber Chase since it is the last of the "Real Monsters".

I want to watch the Goblin King 08 film since the wiki states that
"This film calls back to the shared premise of The Boo Brothers, The Ghoul School, and The Reluctant Werewolf films from the late 1980s, where the fantastical elements of the story are genuine, and Scooby and Shaggy alone discover and befriend an entire society of supernatural beings."
And those were the Scooby doo movies I grew up watching before Zombie Island came out.
