Is it just me or does it seem that there is no new content for Halloween.
I loved watching Making Monsters then it was canceled
HGTV and Travel Channel all had something like the Halloween Crazy series and America's Scariest Halloween Attractions.

Last year, it was just reruns of old shows like those I mentioned above and marathons of the same old “Halloween” movies.

Please, please say Halloween Wars will be on this year at least!

I hope Halloween Wars comes back, I LOVE that show! I haven’t heard any rumors about it not, though, so hopefully no worries there.

A couple of other shows I watch in the “horror” genre that will be coming back with a new season in the fall is Midnight Texas and American Horror Story.

Midnight Texas first debuted last summer, so I was thinking it was going to be a summer show, but I just read an article online that says it will come back in the fall on Oct 26, with 1 or 2 main characters having departed the show (Yul Vazquez, who played the Reverend, and Sarah Ramos, who played Creek, but they’re trying to get her to come back).

American Horror Story comes back Sept. 12, and I’m looking forward to it the most! I was kind of disappointed with the last couple seasons, but it looks like the theme this year is “Apocolypse”; which they say is going to be a crossover between Murder House and Coven. My favorite seasons were Murder House and Asylum, so hopefully it will be a good season!

While not mainstream TV, I stumbled unto a channel on youtube a couple weeks ago that is professionally done and reminds me of those types of shows you mentioned they used to run....It's called Hollywood Graveyard:

I've been watching a few shows of it here and there....I really like the way he presents and it's interesting content!.....ZR

I loved a few years ago, when here in Illinois we were going for a Guiness World record for most Jack O Lanterns lit at one time at the Highwood Pumpkin fest, we were competing with a Halloween festival in Another state and the twin Brothers from the TV show, "Property Brothers" were each at a festival. Unfortunately we lost the competition, but man it was so much fun and a cool show too. I think it was aired on HGTV but not 100% on that.

The only series I ever really catch are Halloween Wars and AHS during October but HW barely gets any adverts for it seems like. I'm usually binging movies anyway though, lol.

The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is coming October 26th!

 

[Azza]

Unholy crap! You never get stuff like this in the UK.

 

[MomeWraith]

AHS started pretty strong but it got pretty inconsistent towards the middle. Sometimes it didn't really feel much like horror.
My sister and I watched Roanoke together but not last season. I did watch Midnight, Texas and probably will read the books
that it was based on. I am also really liking Channel Zero. Here's hoping neat stuff is hiding around the corner

My sister discovered this https://www.youtube.com/user/ObsoleteOddity
There's an episode about the Collyer Broither's, abandoned buildings and Lizzie Border.
Very interesting stuff!

I forgot about Channel Zero......I like it, but that show is definitely WEIRD! I didn’t watch the first 2 seasons (didn’t know about the show) but started watching in season 3 “Butcher’s Block”. I need to go back and watch the first 2, maybe I will do that in October....

While I was looking this up to see if there was a trailer to watch, I also came across an article that said Charmed was getting a reboot and will air in the fall on Sundays. I was a bit younger when Charmed was still on, but I loved that show! Could be another fun “witchy” show to watch!

Amazon Prime does have a channel you can subscribe to called Destination Unknown, which is all reality supernatural, ghost hunt or Halloween-centric programming. I think it’s $5 a month.

In the past ABC did The Great Halloween Fright Fight but not sure if it's back this season but my guess is it was a one shot. Haunted Overload won, that's all I remember from that.

For anyone that's still watching, Walking Dead will be back this fall too.

Can’t wait for TWD!

Thanks for posting this ZombieRaider. I have watched several episodes. It's very interesting!

 

[ElPitchfork]

Based on the comic and the comic is really good. Looking forward to this one Zach!!!

When it first came out I knew someone who claimed to have been invited to be on it. They in the end declined, their walk through was a weekend only thing for charity and the producers wanted the full haunt up and running at the end of July, early Aug for filming. They spend several thousand dollars each year doing their home haunt between props, set up, fire marshal requests, insurance, pizza and beer for the staff. Toss in all the work setting it up and taking it all down just to turn around and do it again in a few weeks just wasn't worth it to them.

While there are tons of folks out there doing HUGE Christmas displays most of which center around light shows and LoR controls. I don't think there are enough of us out there doing HUGE Home Haunters displays, with props and accompanying scare staff, to keep a show like this going. I think once a home haunter reaches a certain level of investment in props and staff they tend to go pro. Christmas on the other hand doesn't have the drive to become a paid for pro display thing once one spend a few thousand on lights and controllers.

Wife and I loved the original Charmed. The reboot does not look good from the trailer I saw. Its sad the original cast was all on board to comeback for a new run of their show but the CW opted for this instead.

I miss the classic Disney Channel when they had special movie showings and specials about Halloween for nearly the entire month of October. This was when they made such fun movies as "Halloweentown" and played "Hocus Pocus" to an adoring audience.

While I appreciate Disney Freeform "31 Days of Halloween", it isn't as elaborate or as fun.

I have video of some of the Halloween specials on the Classic Disney Channel. Now I just have to find my old vcr...

 

[AstorReinhardt]

I only watch cooking shows related to Halloween anymore...I don't do horror shows or anything.

Halloween Wars and the other challenge shows are always my favorites.

If you like Halloween Wars, then I think you'll enjoy the Halloween Baking Championship! That one is so much fun because everything they make has to be scary. Amazon also has a station for $5 a month called Shudder. I've had it a few months. I wish they came out with more movies more often, but they have some good TV shows to watch as well as lots of movies. (Warning: some are awful!)

And good news, they did announce Halloween Wars 2018 will air this October!
