In terms of Halloween content, things start pretty tame on Tuesday, with the release of a special of children’s animated series StarBeam. They get a lot more interesting on Wednesday, though, with two big titles arriving. There’s Russian post-apocalyptic horror To the Lake and Adam Sandler’s latest, Hubie Halloween. As his next project after the critically acclaimed Uncut Gems, it’s getting a lot of attention, even though it’s obviously a very different kind of movie.

Hubie Halloween is one of the biggest holiday-themed releases coming to Netflix this month, of course, but perhaps even more exciting is The Haunting of Bly Manor, which arrives on October 9th, delivering what promises to be another round of terror from the people who brought you 2018’s smash hit series The Haunting of Hill House. An adaptation of classic Victorian ghost story The Turn of the Screw, you can’t get better October entertainment than this.

Of course, there’s a lot more going up over the next few days apart from Halloween content, and on Friday, you can catch the second season of animated kids spinoff show Fast & Furious Spy Racers and docuseries Deaf U.
