Hulu's Huluween and Disney+'s Hallowstream Line-Up; Shining Vale Returns October 13 on STARZ
Disney+ and Hulu subscribers are in for the greatest treat this Halloween season with the return of fan-favorite Huluween and Hallowstream celebrations and content premieres. Over the next several weeks, viewers looking for every level of scare (including the not-so-scary) will be able to stream highly-anticipated new titles like Disney's Haunted Mansion, The Boogeyman, American Horror Stories, Appendage, The Mill, Marvel Studios' Werewolf by Night in Color, along with The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror Collection and beloved classics like Hocus Pocus, The Omen, The Craft, and more as they get in the spirit of the season. The streaming platforms debuted trailers for several of these including Goosebumps, which will premiere on Disney+ and Hulu on Friday, October 13, Mickey and Friends Trick or Treats, streaming on Disney+ and Hulu on Monday, October 2, and Appendage, streaming on Hulu on Monday, October 2.
STARZ has released the trailer and key art for season two of its hit horror comedy, Shining Vale, which returns to haunt viewers' screens on the frightfully appropriate Friday, October 13. The hysterical, spine-chilling trailer and key art teases the repercussions following last season’s nail biting cliffhanger when Pat (Courteney Cox) landed herself in a psychiatric hospital for trying to murder her family with an ax. Pat (Cox) went through extensive Electroshock Therapy, and when she returns home she meets a mysterious woman who introduces her to a host of ancient remedies used to “cure” women of depression, including the apocryphal Smile Masks. Season two explores what’s in store for the Phelps family as they continue to be haunted by ghosts while Pat struggles to live with mental illness among a broken family, battling demons both internally...and externally.
Shining Vale season two is set to premiere on Friday, October 13, at midnight ET on the STARZ app, all STARZ streaming and on-demand platforms and on LIONSGATE+ streaming platform in the U.K. and Ireland. On linear, it will debut on STARZ on Friday, October 13, at 9PM ET/PT in the U.S. and Canada. New episodes will be available to stream weekly on Fridays at midnight on the STARZ app, all STARZ streaming and on-demand platforms and will air weekly on the STARZ linear platform. Shining Vale, stars Emmy Award® nominee Courteney Cox (Friends, Cougar Town), Academy Award® nominee and Emmy Award® winner Greg Kinnear (As Good as It Gets, The Kennedys) and Academy Award® winner Mira Sorvino (Hollywood, The Expecting).
