Shudder, AMC Networks’ premium horror haven, is cranking the terror dial with their supersized Season of Screams event. Launching on the perfect date—Friday the 13th—this three-month-long celebration of spine-chilling cinema promises an epic lineup of new film releases, original series, bone-chilling specials, and live watch parties on Shudder TV. And if you’re the kind of horror fiend who likes their frights curated, Shudder’s infamous Ghoul Log and Halloween Hotline are back, with Head of Programming Samuel Zimmerman ready to hook you up with personalized scream-worthy recommendations.
But that’s not all. Season of Screams also offers a blood-curdling deep dive into some of horror’s most iconic franchises, from Friday the 13th to Children of the Corn, making it a must-watch marathon for any genre devotee. To sweeten the pot, Shudder is offering a killer deal—an annual plan at 31% off, perfectly timed to coincide with their “31 Days of October” extravaganza. If you’re looking for scares all year long, this might be the perfect excuse to indulge in nonstop horror bliss.
Of course, it’s the fresh content that’s really going to send shivers down your spine. The event promises much-anticipated releases like In a Violent Nature, the next nightmare-fueled chapter in the V/H/S franchise—V/H/S/Beyond—and the Russell Crowe-led supernatural thriller The Exorcism. Plus, the Boulet Brothers’ hit series Dragula is back for a brand-new season, and horror fans can finally catch The Creep Tapes, a highly anticipated series from Mark Duplass and Patrick Brice.
This year’s Season of Screams isn’t just about new horrors, though. Shudder is digging into its vault of fright-filled treasures, featuring all eight films from the original Friday the 13th franchise, a complete Rob Zombie catalog, and modern cult classics like It Follows and Mike Flanagan’s Hush (which is back on streaming). They’ve even added Halloween-set found footage gem The Houses October Built (2011) and Chucky Season 3, completing the full series run for all you fans of everyone’s favorite killer doll.
With a lineup like this, Shudder’s Season of Screams is shaping up to be an unmissable marathon of nightmares, thrills, and unforgettable horror moments—perfect for fans ready to feast on terror well into the winter months.
