Unbelievable! Disney wants an additional 1 billion dollars from DISH Network to renew the contract they have between the companies. Since they are unable to come to an agreement most of the Disney owned companies have been taken off the air. Guess what that means? No Halloween movies, GREAT! I had The Witches and The Haunted Mansion ready to record on Freeform this morning, instead a DISH employee is announcing that Disney wants an additional 1 billion so that Dish can pass that price increase on to the consumer. Disney also owns ABC but for some reason it’s airing on DISH right now, although it should be taken down. I’m so disappointed in Disney.

Freeform promised we’ll love the schedule, I’ll take that for granted.
No, 31 Nights of Halloween will be here in october, remember?
The 31 nights of Halloween schedule is releasing tomorrow Sept 1 at 8:00am PT/ 11:00am ET on the official Instagram and Facebook Page for 31 nights of Halloween.
I’M so EXCITED!
I hope they have good stuff and definitely no stupid Shrek and MIB.
Please notify me of tge schedule for Freeform Full 31 nights of Halloween 2022 please and tgank you!!
It’s releasing Thursday at 8:00a.m. ET / 5:00a.m PT on the official 31 nights of Halloween Instagram/Facebook page.
The schedule will appear on this site probably 3-5 hours after it’s initial release on social media.
You’re welcome!
Sincerely,
HALLOWEEN PUMPKIN HEAD 🎃
i hope we have more movies with halloween theme nope something like frozen XD, i could past harry potter or twilight only because they really have witches and vampire but i hope for better
The 31 nights of Halloween schedule is most certainly releasing in nearly 2 weeks (September 1st) because that is the prior time they’ve revealed the schedule since 13 nights became 31 nights of Halloween 🎃
I’m hoping I’m more impressed in the schedule than I was last September, I’ve never had such a letdown before.
I can’t wait to see what Freeform has in store for us this year with 31 Nights of Halloween!
