If you were a Netflix subscriber during the spookiest month of the year, you’re likely to have found a nice selection of intriguing content to sort through. And although you may have moved on to November’s new additions, it might be worth looking back over October’s biggest titles to see if you contributed to the rankings by watching some of your favorite movies and shows of the month.
Surprising almost no one, the creepy Netflix Original series The Haunting of Hill House managed to bring in the lion’s share of the platform’s viewership for October. That being said, it also snagged the top spot on the overall streaming charts, scoring an impressive 15.8% of the total viewership across the most popular services.
Meanwhile, the beloved comedy show Schitt’s Creek dropped its sixth and final season on Netflix early last month and came in a close second in viewership. It scored a total of 14.8% of the total streaming share as well, putting it directly above Disney Plus’ The Mandalorian, which grabbed the overall third spot with 13.9%.
And coming in third for Netflix, specifically, was Adam Sandler’s comedy horror mashup Hubie Halloween, grabbing 12.7% of the streaming stake for the month.
Here are the 10 most-streamed films and shows for October:
