Britt Robertson stars in the new horror film "Books of Blood" coming to Hulu in October, along with "Bad Hair," another Hulu original movie.

Trick-or-treating may be cancelled in 2020 due to COVID-19, but watching Halloween movies is still an option. A new batch of spooky films are coming to Hulu for those celebrating from home.

Hulu removed a few classic scary movies like "Friday the 13th" and "Practical Magic" at the start of September, but next month they're replacing those with a new bunch of seasonal movies and shows. 

"Scream 4," "Interview with a Vampire," and the Olsen twins' "Double, Double, Toil and Trouble" will arrive during the next month, along with other scary movies like "The Eye," "Hostel," "House of 1,000 Corpses," and "The Tooth Fairy."

Less bold viewers searching in the thriller genre will also be able to watch "Terminator: Dark Fate," the fourth and finale Terminator film of the series starring 
Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Hulu is also premiering "Books of Blood" in October. The new horror flick is based on the best selling collection of scary stories by English author Clive Barker. The 2020 film follows other prominent adaptations of Barker's work like "Candyman" (1992) and "The Midnight Meat Train" (2008).

Watch the trailer for "Books of Blood" below. 


Another terrifying new film, "Bad Hair," is also premiering on the platform. The star-studded movie brings Laverne Cox, Lena Waithe, and Kelly Rowland into the same universe for a horror-satire movie about an unfortunate salon experience turned nightmare. 

"Bad Hair" is also a Hulu original movie directed by Justin Simien, known for directing the Netflix series "Dear White People." It will premiere on Oct. 23.
