The nights are getting longer, the lawns are filling with headstones, and suspicious noises are finally considered seasonal ambiance. The Halloween is finally here! While most of us horror fans keep the darkness comfortably furnished 365 days a year, I love watching everyone else step into the shadows and pretend they aren’t checking the locks afterward. I’m equally excited for FOUND TV’s Occult October releases, with more unsettling viewing to work into an already ambitious watchlist. If you’re planning your own evenings in the dark, here’s what’s coming and when to mark your calendar. Mark your calendars for these releases:
