Freeform's 31 Nights Of Halloween Lineup: Hocus Pocus, Ghostbusters Tribute, Scream, Simpsons And More
At first glance, Freeform's annual 31 Days of Halloween lineup looks like it's just a bunch of Hocus Pocus — and that's not entirely false.
Over the next month, the cable network will broadcast the beloved 1993 Walt Disney film starring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy a total of 30 — yes, 30! — times.
In addition, Freeform will debut 31 Nights of Halloween Fan Fest. Airing Saturday, Oct. 5 (at 8/7c), the 90-minute special will pay tribute to Hocus Pocus and The Addams Family, and celebrate both the 35th anniversary of Ghostbusters and the 50th anniversary of The Haunted Mansion. Vanessa Hudgens and Jordan Fisher will preside over the broadcast, which is set to feature appearances by Dan Aykroyd and Ghostbusters director Ivan Reitman; Hocus Pocus' Omri Katz, Vinessa Shaw, Doug Jones, Larry Bagby and Tobias Jelenik; and performances by Christina Aguilera, Kristin Chenoweth and JD McCreary, In Real Life, Salt-N-Pepa and Ray Parker Jr.
