The streamer has hundreds of original and fan-favorite titles to stream for the spooky season.
We’re merely weeks away from October and that means Halloween fans are starting to plan all the ways in which they will embrace the spirit of All Hallow’s Eve, and while some streaming platforms can be a bit tricky to navigate when it comes to finding seasonal offerings, Paramount+ has launched its slate of Peak Screaming titles to make the process effortless. The platform has hundreds of movies, TV series, and Halloween-centric episodes of content to dive into in the coming weeks, with Paramount+ also breaking down all of its horror content into various groups, from “Killer classics” to “Family Fright Night.” You can check out what to expect from Paramount+’s Peak Screaming content below.
Per press release, “The heart-pounding Paramount+ Peak Screaming collection returns to the service today with a monster-sized lineup of thrills for audiences to enjoy this Halloween season. The popular collection expands each year and features more genre-defining hits and classics than ever before, with over 450 new originals, fan-favorite horror movies, and iconic Halloween episodes from beloved series. The seasonal collection will include the debut of the Paramount+ original film Apartment 7A (September 27th), a haunting prequel to the cult classic Rosemary’s Baby; and SpongeBob SquarePants: Kreepaway Kamp (October 10th), a new hour-long special where, while at Kamp Koral for a reunion, SpongeBob and the gang are stalked by a mysterious figure lurking in the shadows as campers start disappearing one by one.”
