We’ve got you covered with a complete guide on what’s worth watching.'Clown Panic' Not every scary clown is fictional. Some may even be waiting for you out in a decrepit old cornfield. "Clown Panic" is a documentary revisiting the very real wave of creepy clown sightings that swept the country in 2016, which started when kids in a small South Carolina town swore they'd seen clowns lurking in the woods. It all got out of control from there before it transformed into a full-blown national media frenzy.Created from real, unsettling archival footage, viral videos, and interviews with witnesses, this is a creepy and darkly funny documentary that will set the mood right, just in time for Halloween.Stream on Hulu beginning October 12'VisionQuest' Marvel Television’s VisionQuest | Official Trailer - YouTube Watch On Five years after "WandaVision," Paul Bettany's Vision finally gets a story of his own. "VisionQuest" closes out the trilogy that began with "WandaVision" and continued through "Agatha All Along," picking up with the rebooted White Vision, the memory-flooded version left standing at the end of "WandaVision."Searching for a new sense of purpose, he starts consulting the AI personalities buried in his own programming, among them a returning James Spader as Ultron. It looks like a much trippier, more introspective corner of the MCU, so it looks well worth investing in, fan of the universe or not.Stream on Disney+ beginning October 14Everything new on Hulu and Disney+ in October 2026October 1Hulu: FX’s American Horror Story: 13 (Hulu Original) – Three Episodes @ 9pm PTHulu: FX’s American Horror Story Official Podcast – New Episode @ 9pm PTHulu: Barbarian (2022)Disney+ and Hulu: Dancing with the Stars Official Podcast (Season 35) – New EpisodeHulu: Die Hard (1988)Hulu: Die Hard 2 (1990)Hulu: Die Hard with a Vengeance (1995)Disney+ and Hulu: Disney+ Hulu Throwbacks Podcast – Halloweentown EpisodeHulu: Edward Scissorhands (1990)Hulu: Ghostbusters (1984)Hulu: Ghostbusters II (1989)Hulu: Ghostbusters: Answer the Call (2016)Hulu: Grown Ups (2010)Hulu: Grown Ups 2 (2013)Disney+ and Hulu: Hey Jonas! – New Podcast EpisodeHulu: Hotel Transylvania (2012)Hulu: Hotel Transylvania 2 (2015)Hulu: Live Free or Die Hard (2007)Disney+: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse+ (Season 2) – PremiereHulu: Night at the Museum (2006)Hulu: Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (2009)Hulu: Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb (2014)Hulu: Soulm8te (2026)Hulu: Scrubs (Season 2) (ABC) – Two-Episode PremiereHulu: Shark Tank (Season 18) (ABC) – Two-Episode Premiere Disney+: Stick to Football (Season 1) – New Podcast EpisodeHulu: Surf's Up (2007)Hulu: Surf's Up 2: WaveMania (2017)Disney+ and Hulu: NHL – Chicago Blackhawks vs. Utah Mammoth (ESPN+) – 9:30pm ETOctober 2Disney+ and Hulu: Adventure Time: Side Quests (Season 2) – Premiere – All Episodes StreamingDisney+ and Hulu: Austin City Limits Music Festival 2026 – Livestream Day OneDisney+ and Hulu: Coven Academy (Season 1) – Premiere – All Episodes StreamingDisney+: Pupstruction (Season 3) – PremiereHulu: The Substance (2024)Hulu: Tokyo Revengers: War of the Three Titans Arc (Hulu Original) – PremiereOctober 3Disney+ and Hulu: Africa Earth’s Wild Home (Season 1) – Premiere – All Episodes StreamingDisney+ and Hulu: Austin City Limits Music Festival 2026 – Livestream Day TwoHulu: Celebrity Wheel of Fortune (Season 7) (ABC) – Premiere Disney+: Chibi Tiny Tales: Shorts (Season 7) – New EpisodesHulu: Hereditary (2018)Hulu: Midsommar (2019)Disney+: College GameDay Built by The Home Depot (ESPN) – 9am ETOctober 4Disney+ and Hulu: Austin City Limits Music Festival 2026 – Livestream Day ThreeHulu: The Mess Around with Hannah and Lamorne – New Podcast EpisodeDisney+ and Hulu: We’re Here to Help – New Podcast EpisodeOctober 5Hulu: America’s Funniest Home Videos (Season 37) (ABC) – New EpisodeDisney+ and Hulu: Between Steps (Season 1) (Hulu Original) – PremiereHulu: Gachiakuta (Season 1, Part 1) (Subbed & Dubbed) – All Episodes Streaming\Hulu: FX’s It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (Season 18) (Hulu Original) – New Episode @ 9pm PTDisney+: Pod Meets World – New Podcast EpisodesHulu: That Was Us – New Podcast EpisodeOctober 6Disney+ and Hulu: Best Friends – New Podcast EpisodeDisney+ and Hulu: Between Steps (Season 1) (Hulu Original) – New EpisodeDisney+: Dancing with the Stars (Season 35) (ABC) – Streaming Live @ 8pm ET Hulu: FX’s The Drop: A Snowfall Saga (Hulu Original) – New Episode @ 9pm PTHulu: FX’s The Drop: A Snowfall Saga After Show – New Episode @ 9pm PTDisney+ and Hulu: Hey Jonas! – New Podcast EpisodeDisney+ and Hulu: Perfect Person – New Podcast EpisodeHulu: Prison Breaking With Sarah & Paul – New Podcast EpisodeHulu: Reasonable Doubt (Season 4) (Hulu Original) – Three-Episode PremiereDisney+: Stick to Football (Season 1) – New Podcast EpisodeDisney+: Stick to United with Wayne Rooney (Season 1) – New Podcast EpisodesDisney+ and Hulu: StraightioLab – New Podcast EpisodeDisney+ and Hulu: Thanks Dad with Ego Nwodim – New Podcast EpisodeDisney+ and Hulu: We’re Here to Help – New Podcast EpisodeESPN: NHL – New York Islanders vs. New York Rangers (ESPN) – 8pm ETESPN: NHL – Florida Panthers vs. Los Angeles Kings (ESPN) – 10:30pm ETOctober 7Disney+: Big City Greens (Season 5) – Halloween Special EpisodeHulu: Dancing with the Stars (Season 35) (ABC) – New EpisodeDisney+: Gracie's Corner – New EpisodesDisney+: Gracie's Corner: Shorts – New EpisodesHulu: Jamie Foxx: Take Care of Yourself (Hulu Original) – PremiereDisney+: Kiff – Halloween Special EpisodeDisney+ and Hulu: Merry Berry Love (Season 1) (Hulu Original) – PremiereDisney+: Phineas and Ferb – Halloween Special PremiereHulu: R.J.
