BBG News

As a hardcore horror enthusiast who has survived countless sleepless nights thanks to my love for all things spooky, I can’t help but get giddy at the prospect of what Peacock has in store this Halloween season! With over 150 new titles dropping between now and October 31st, it’s clear that Peacock is the go-to platform for anyone who wants to immerse themselves in a world of fear and fun.

Even though we’re in August, enthusiasts of Halloween can’t wait and neither should you – it’s always a good time to kick off the festivities or at least start getting ready for the most exciting period of the year. It seems that Peacock shares this sentiment, and it’s one of the many aspects that make us adore this streaming platform!

As a lifelong horror fanatic who has spent countless Halloweens huddled under blankets watching scary movies, I can’t help but get excited about Peacock’s upcoming Halloween lineup. With over 150 new titles dropping between now and Halloween night, it seems that this streaming platform is the ultimate destination for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the spooky spirit of the season. From bone-chilling classics to modern masterpieces, Peacock has a little something for everyone – whether you’re a fan of big scares or prefer a more lighthearted approach to Halloween. As someone who has spent years honing my fear threshold, I can confidently say that this platform is a must-have for any horror enthusiast looking to make the most of this Halloween season. Let the chills and thrills commence!

Teacup

Let’s begin with a sneak peek at “Teacup”, an upcoming horror series by the talented James Wan, who is renowned for his chilling creations in the horror genre. You might recognize Wan as the co-creator of the “Saw” movie franchise. Additionally, he has directed the terrifying movies “Insidious” and “The Conjuring”. In summary, you can expect “Teacup” to be in capable hands!

The story, titled “Teacup,” unfolds in a tranquil rural Georgian setting, where a band of townsfolk are seen struggling against an enigmatic and sinister peril that has infiltrated their small community. This narrative bears a resemblance to the classic horror tale, “IT,”, yet the trailer offers a distinct atmosphere that sets it apart. Give it a watch below and share your thoughts!

It’s a bit of a letdown that the series Teacup doesn’t start until October 10th, with new episodes airing on October 17th, 24th, and 31st. Teacup features Yvonne Strahovski, Scott Speedman, Chaske Spencer, and several other talented actors.

Hysteria! 

If you found the wait for Teacup on October 10 to be lengthy, brace yourself as Hysteria! won’t premiere until October 18. However, there’s some good news: all episodes of Season 1 of Hysteria! will be released simultaneously on the same day. This chilling series is set in the ’80s, amidst the “Satanic Panic,” where a heavy metal band endeavors to cash in on their town’s fascination with Satan cults. But their joy turns sour when they become the suspects for a string of recent murders and abductions after being accused.

Which of these two are you the most excited to watch on Peacock?
