Looks like TCM has more variety than AMC FearFest
Where’s the Fog!!!!????
Yeah it’s been like that for every October. I can’t stand watching the same horror titles every year. So I switch over to TCM.

Movies! Channel is an over the air channel and cable channel. I actually looked too see if they had an app to stream but sadly they do not.
I know COX cable in Las Vegas carries it, but you are correct I don’t know of any streaming services that carry it. It can probably be found using a cheap ($20 or so) indoor leaf antenna most places.
What happened to The Wolfman with Lon Chaney and Bride of Frankenstein? They seem to be missing from your lineup about every other year. Why?
I want some Vincent Price for Halloween/October PLEASE🎃
All of those are on Peacock
TCM has specific movies available on HBO Max!

What is “Movies! channel” ? Do you mean The Movie Channel (TMC)?
No it is a channel like MeTV, Retro, Decades that is mostly a free over the air channel with a channel number of the parent channel point something (example here in Las Vegas is channel 8.3 with channel being the local CBS station. It is not a pay channel. The name of the channel is Movies!
Need to see
Ghost Breakers 1940 Bob Hope
The House of Seven Gables 1940 Vincent Price
The Spiral Staircase 1946 Dorothy McGuire
Wow, this really is more like it. I don’t know what’s happened to TCM’s Halloween spirit over the last few years but the lineup has definitely been disappointing.
Discovery took over TCM what a disgrace
Now that’s a lineup!
Discovery took over TCM what a disgrace
https://moviestvnetwork.com/schedule/?date=10/12/2022#calendar
Why are the horror movies shown mostly during the day until the lat week of October? Some of us work during the day, and isn’t horror more appropriate for the evening anyway?
I know that Turner classic movies is the best place to find old movies love this channel but on Halloween the line up should be all universal Horror movies from Frankenstein all the way to the mummy please make this a universal horror Halloween
They should show Browning’s The Devil-Doll 1936. Imo a great film around Halloween time!
Love these BUT you need to add Comet tvs schedule for October too
If you search the TCM site listings by vowel, you can piece together the full month of October – it is missing a few time slots, notably on Halloween night (which I hope they air a combo of Dracula, Frankenstein, and The Wolf Man for their 90th/80th anniversaries) but the majority of the schedule is available…
