Looking for Hocus Pocus 2? You won't find that one here as it's still only available exclusively on Disney+. The hotly anticipated sequel was unleashed on streaming last September -- and the results were big. Upon its release, the movie “broke the record for the total number of minutes watched by a streaming film across its weekend debut,” according to a report from Entertainment Weekly.

Hocus Pocus 3 is also reportedly in the works.

So when can you watch your some of your favorite Halloween movies this fall? Here's the full 2023 TV schedule for Freeform's 31 Nights of Halloween...
