Finally, they dropped the Harry Potter movies from the list. They are so overplayed on freeform as it is. This year What the Heck options include Goonies and Mrs. Doutfire on a Halloween countdown?????????

 

[e_xander]

I would also say The Breakfast Club is another one for the What The Heck club.

Here's the promos:



Not sure why Freeform hasn't put up these promos on their own Youtube channel...

I don't know, I had kinda gotten used to seeing the Harry Potter movies on the list of movies each year. But I'm maybe just nostalgic for when it was called "13 Nights of Halloween" on "ABC Family". I'm still getting used to "Freeform".

Goonies, I can understand. But Mrs. Doutfire?!?!?!!?!?!!?

Also: The Jurassic Park movies don't really fit, in my opinion.

Lots of people have tried shoehorning Jurassic Park as a horror movie. Not that i agree with it but still a good movie.

So the complete list of movies includes:

ParaNorman
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Hocus Pocus
Pixar's "Monsters University"
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)
Monster House
The Final Girls (I'm unfamiliar with this one)
The Addams Family (1991)
Teen Spirit (a 2011 "ABC Family" movie)
The Parent Trap
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)
The Goonies
The Breakfast Club
Maleficent
Warm Bodies
The Haunted Mansion
Alice in Wonderland (2010)
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Dark Shadows (2012)
Clue (1985)
Jurassic Park (1993)
Mrs. Doubtfire
The Lost World: Jurassic Park
Despicable Me
The Boxtrolls
Disney's Bolt
Disney's Frozen
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Monsters Inc.
Hotel Transylvania
Disney's Mulan
Maggie (is that the 2015 "Ah-nuld" movie?)
Spooky Buddies (I love the "buddy" dog movies!)
The Witches of Eastwick
Toy Story of Terror
Disney's "Big Hero 6"


I think "Monsters Inc" and Monsters University" are welcome additions, but what the heck are "Frozen" and "Mulan" doing in there? Some of those just make no sense whatsoever.

Disney owend channel. they have to get as much disney as they can..

would love them to play the old Disney Trick r treat special from 60's or 70's

I am little disappointed ... to many repeats and why are they playing this movie. Wish they would have added Twitches, Ghost Busters, Halloweentown, Poltergeist, Lost Boys etc ....

Some of those are a bit too...dark? Or vulgar. Or scary.

The Halloween movies that air on ABC Family (sorry, "Freeform") should be somewhat family friendly.

But admitedly, they're not as scary or gory as what would air on "AMC's FearFest"(where they air stuff like "Nightmare on Elm Street" or "Carrie").

I don't know, "Lost Boys" could air on AMC's FearFest. But what channel would be a good fit for the classics like "Ghost Busters" and "Poltergeist"?

Poltergeist will most likely show up on Scfi channel. NO still will not call it SYFY.
