The critically acclaimed Ghosts, which returns for its second season starting September 29, will debut a new Halloween episode, “Halloween 2: The Ghosts of Hetty’s Past,” on October 27. Existing Halloween episodes from famous shows like Cheers, Frasier, Blue Bloods, and Beverly Hills, 90210 are available to stream in the collection.

There are plenty of family-friendly options in both film and television, depending on your fright level. Paw Patrol, Spongebob Squarepants, and Blues Clues are perfect for the younger crowd. The Addams Family, Are You Afraid of the Dark, and Sabrina The Teenage Witch may be more suitable for older children.
