6 must-watch shows on Disney+ in October 2024

As a parent who has been through countless Halloween seasons, I can confidently say that Disney+ is a lifesaver during October. The platform has always managed to keep both my kids and me entertained with its diverse content, but this year’s offerings are particularly noteworthy.

October is the scariest month of the year. While you want some jumps, you don’t want to worry about the kids having nightmares. The great thing about Disney+ is that it has something for the whole family, and Disney is definitely treating us all to some Halloween-themed content!

Absolutely, you’ll find fresh episodes of “Agatha All Along” and “Ayla and the Mirrors” running all through the month. Interestingly, “Dancing with the Stars” will be broadcasted simultaneously on ABC and Disney+. However, this post is focusing on the new content, and there’s a lot of it to look forward to!

In October 2024, here’s a lineup of 6 exciting shows premiering on Disney+, arranged by their release date. There’s something for everyone to enjoy!

Mickey’s Spooky Stories

Are you searching for something fun to engage preschoolers? Starting October 2nd, five episodes of Disney Junior’s Mickey’s Spooky Stories will be available on Disney+ as well as aired on Disney Junior.

The long-awaited comeback is here! “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place” brings back Justin Russo, a wizard living among humans, yearning for an ordinary life. His task now is to guide Billie, a budding wizard with immense powers, in managing her abilities. Since she must master them in the human world, the stakes are undeniably high.

Absolutely! You’ll notice several familiar faces from the initial show, with Selena Gomez reprising her role as Alex Russo. In addition to acting, Gomez will also serve as an executive producer for the series. The first eight episodes are scheduled to debut on Disney+ on Halloween, October 30th.
