Freeform's 31 Nights Of Halloween Lineup Is Scary Good
Staff Writer, Jasmine Williams, covers a variety of topics from home decor to beauty and everything in between. She has bylines at Motherly, The Everymom, and Byrdie where she wrote about motherhood, beauty, health and relationships. Jasmine knew she wanted to be a writer when she realized she was actually interested in reading the articles in her mom's favorite magazines — and she may or may not have ripped her favorite articles out to study them later. When she's not working, you can find Jasmine playing make-believe with her toddler, spending an undisclosed amount of time in Target or TJ Maxx, and searching for a family-friendly puppy to add to her family.
It's time to get your pumpkin snacks and BOO-zy Halloween cocktails ready because we're halfway through Freeform's 31 Nights of Halloween! But don't worry, it's not too late to tune in. I'm a total scream queen, so this makes me as giddy as a fall capsule collection does. Ever since my introduction to horror as a kid — I'm talking under the age of five — I've faithfully tuned into thriller and horror movie lineups each fall.
The great thing about Freeform's lineup is there's a movie that suits everyone's fear factor level. From slapstick comedies to our beloved Sanderson sisters, here's an overview of the schedule for Freeform's 31 Nights of Halloween!
