Disney+ and Hulu set Hallowstream and Huluween 2023 schedules

Technically, Halloween arrives at the end of October. But Disney+ and Hulu aren’t waiting around to start rolling out the Halloween programing. For the sixth year in a row, Hulu will launch its Huluween slate of programming. Huluween will kick off tomorrow, September 15, with the Hulu premiere of Marvel’s Werewolf by Night. The Boogeyman, a Stephen King adaptation that was originally slated as a Hulu original, will finally arrive at its intended destination on October 6. Stephen King’s Rose Red is also on the schedule, alongside a number of Hulu originals and classic shows. There’s even a four-episode event for American Horror Stories.

Disney+ is holding off a little longer for the launch of its fourth annual Hallowstream. This year’s event begins on October 4 with the Disney+ premiere of Haunted Mansion and continues on October 13 with a new Goosebumps series that will also stream on Hulu. On October 20, Werewolf by Night will be getting a rerelease in color for the first time. However, most of the programming that Disney+ listed for October 31 are things that the streamer already has, like The Nightmare Before Christmas and The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror Collection.

What’s new on Disney+ in December 2024

Disney+ has dropped a lot of coal in the stockings of subscribers who were used to a full-service streamer prior to this year. Even now, much of the content in the Disney+ December lineup is shared with Hulu, including the first 20 seasons of Law & Order, the horror film Cuckoo, and the action series Paris Has Fallen. What's the point of having two streaming services — even in a Disney bundle — if they're already sharing content?

Thankfully, Disney+ is also bringing some Christmas gifts in December to serve as a reminder of why this streamer was once considered the best alternative to Netflix. Where else are you going to get a new Star Wars series (Skeleton Crew), the third season of Marvel Studios' animated show What If...?, a new Doctor Who Christmas special, and an Elton John special? Those are the kind of things that make Disney+ worth the money, rather than a warmed-over Hulu alternative. Disney+ should spend 2025 embracing the idea of actually giving people the special content that they signed up for in the first place.
