Halloween movies and shows to watch on HBO Max

Working on your Halloween movies and shows list? Here’s what to watch on HBO Max
Watching Halloween movies and shows each Halloween season is tradition. But this year, the spooky holiday is going to look a little bit differently. Who are we kidding? Significantly different. But if you’re a fan of horror movies and shows, it may work in your favor.
Trick-or-treating is discouraged and so are parties due to COVID-19. What are Halloween fans to do? Plan a binge-watch!
I’m not talking about the night of Halloween or even the weekend. Why not make the best of it and enjoy an entire week of movies and shows? Netflix and other streaming services have plenty to offer, but what about HBO Max?
More often than not, I go to Netflix. It simply has a larger variety of content. But I’ve always stated that HBO Max is the place to go for amazing movies, and that couldn’t be more true this Halloween season.
From hit horror films to movies you can watch with the entire family, we’ve put together a quick list! To watch, you’ll need an HBO Max account. Don’t have one? Now is the perfect time to sign up! You’ll kick off your access with a free trial so you can check out everything HBO Max has to offer.
