Fresh off its Olympic success, Peacock seeks to become Halloween destination

Peacock was the underdog streaming service of the summer with the broadcast of the 2024 Summer Olympics. Now, NBCUniversal’s little streamer that could is gearing up to be the primo destination for spooky season. On Tuesday, Peacock declared its intent to “be your Halloween HQ” this year with the addition of more than 150 new Halloween titles to its catalog, as well as a couple of new horror-bent original series to enjoy. As far as originals go, there’s the previously announced Hysteria!, a Satanic Panic horror comedy starring Julie Bowen (and guest star Bruce Campbell) which premieres October 18. There’s also the James Wan-produced Teacup, which “follows a disparate group of people in rural Georgia who must come together in the face of a mysterious threat in order to survive,” per Peacock’s synopsis. That show, which is inspired by the novel Stinger by Robert McCammon, premieres with two episodes on October 10, and will air two episodes on the 17th leading up to the finale on Halloween. Peacock will also boast the streaming debut of The Mouse Trap, a.k.a. the low-budget slasher that was immediately sent into production as soon as the Mickey Mouse predecessor Steamboat Willie entered the public domain. (Winnie The Pooh: Blood And Honey 2 will also have its exclusive streaming debut with Peacock.)Meanwhile, over the next two months, Peacock’s film library is going to get a major Halloween/horror boost. In addition to classic Universal monster movies like Frankenstein, there are a bunch of iconic horror series being added to the catalog, like the Saw franchise, The Purge movies, the Halloween series, and many more.
