Crackle is actually embracing more than just four new terror-filled channels this spooky season. They’re adding five new channels total in October, plus a ton of great horror movies and even an 80s British horror anthology series.
Let’s check out what all they’re offering.
Crackle New Channels
Starting October 1, Crackle is launching five new channels. Four of them are horror movie-heavy. The fifth is fantasy-related. I’ve included it too, because a lot of times there’s crossover between horror and fantasy, right?
Creatures of the Night
Turn out the lights, but watch your back as you check out the modern zombie classics, Train to Busan, the Crackle original tour de fierce, The Clearing, the gore-fest Day of the Dead, and a splattering of vampires with 30 Days of Night: Dark Days, plus so much more!
Stream Your Head Off
On Crackle, no one can hear you scream since they’re screaming WITH you! Lock down with Quarantine 2, the urban legend Boogeyman II, film legend The Blob, and pray for protection during The Exorcist III.
Don’t Go in the Water
Stick your toe in to test these waters and pull back a stub! You’ll be drowning in terror with titled misnomers Lake Placid 2 and Lake Placid 3, hooked by Frankenfish, and dragged to the bottom of Shark Lake!
Screen Queens
Don’t let the good looks fool you, these beauties are as tough as the terrors they face! Check out the high queen of scream herself, Jamie Lee Curtis in Prom Night, get stuck in House of Flying Daggers, and just try to survive Resident Evil: Apocalypse and Rise: Blood Hunter.
Swords and Sandals
Just to mix things up, Crackle charges into the fray swinging the sharpest films around! Battle to improve your entertainment world with the Crackle exclusive Robert the Bruce, continuing the timeline from the Oscar-winning historical classic, Braveheart, Terry Gilliam’s 30-year-in-the-making magnum opus, The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, the swashbuckling The Legend of Zorro, and watch the cast of Merlin cast their magical spell!
Speaking of Braveheart, if you’re a fan, you might be interested in a new Crackle exclusive feature also launching October 1: Robert the Bruce.
This Crackle exclusive picks up the dramatic historical timeline from the film Braveheart about the liberation of Scotland. Robert the Bruce (Angus Macfadyen) finds himself abandoned, wounded and on the run from the English army. Suffering a disastrous defeat, he takes shelter with a former soldier’s wife (Anna Hutchison) and her children who save his life and nurse him back to health. He becomes a part of their family, and they become the first soldiers in his new army as he sets out to claim his long-awaited crown of freedom.
Crackle TV October Spooky Spotlight Titles
Crackle is an advertising-supported video-on-demand (AVOD) network. If you don’t mind the ads, here are some great horror movies and TV shows you can also find on the streamer in October.
Spides
Sci-fi intrigue at its best! This Crackle TV original series has it all. When police investigators start digging into the distribution of the latest synthetic club drug on the street they find more than they bargained for – mutant teens, underworld mobsters, and alien body snatchers!
The Sonata
This terrifying Crackle exclusive tells the story of a beautiful violin virtuoso (Freya Tingley) who inherits the estate of her estranged composer father (Rutger Hauer) after his passing. Only after she moves in does she realize her father’s obsession with secret societies, music, and the end of the world could create a horrifying symphony of disaster!
I streamed this one and have to say I was pleasantly surprised by it. If you’re a fan of Netflix’s The Haunting of Hill House, you might enjoy Crackle’s The Sonata too.
Being Human
What happens when a vampire and a werewolf become roommates in a house haunted by the loveliest ghost? Watch season one of Being Human and find out for yourself!
Resident Evil: Apocalypse
The second installment of the classic horror film franchise has the gorgeously tough Milla Jovovich battling a reanimated army of zombies hungry for her destruction!
Resident Evil: Extinction
The third time is definitely the charm with the charmingly lethal Milla Jovovich single-handedly saving a rag-tag band of survivors in the Nevada desert battling the evil Umbrella Corp.
Resident Evil: Afterlife
Just when you thought it was safe to be undead, Milla Jovovich returns again to defend a group of survivors hiding in an abandoned prison while sending zombies to the unhappy beyond.
Resident Evil: The Final Chapter
In the film series’ final installment, the indestructible Milla Jovovich gives the diabolical Umbrella Corp and their zombie hordes an explosive grand finale they won’t soon forget.
Boogeyman 2
In the sequel to the terrifying original, a young woman checks herself into a mental health facility in the hopes of banishing her fear of the boogeyman. Check the closet and under the bed before hitting play on this one!
Rise: Blood Hunter
You know the old saying “Hell hath no fury like a woman turned into a vampire.” Join Lucy Liu as she goes on a rampage of revenge against the blood-suckers who turned her into one of them.
The Exorcist III
The third installment of the horror series written and directed by the author of the original novel, takes place 17 years after the initial events and takes the story in a terrifying new direction!

Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.
This is awesome news. We have Crackle in our tv package!
