Originally expected in September but pushed back for the Halloween season is The School for Good and Evil, the new movie from Paul Feig and headlined by Charlize Theron and Kerry Washington.
Here’s what you can expect from the new fantasy movie based on the books of the same name:
“Best friends Sophie and Agatha find themselves on opposing sides of a modern fairy tale when they’re swept away into an enchanted school where young heroes and villains are trained to protect the balance of good and evil.”

Arriving long after Halloween is over but worth mentioning is 1899, the brand new series from the creators of Netflix’s hit German series, Dark.
Here’s what you can expect from the ambitious series using the world’s most advanced technology:
“A migrant steamship heads west to leave the old continent. The passengers, a mixed bag of European origins, united by their hopes and dreams for the new century and their future abroad. But their journey takes an unexpected turn when they discover another migrant ship adrift on open sea. What they will find on board, will turn their passage to the promised land into a horrifying nightmare.”
Cabinet of Curiosities
Release Date: TBD

There’s still so much we don’t know about the upcoming horror anthology series from the creative mind of Guillermo Del Toro. We’ve got a rough idea of what some of the episodes will be about and who will star in them but beyond that, it’s anyone’s guess.
There’ll be 8 episodes of the horror series while Del Toro is involved with all of the episodes, some will be directed by some of the biggest names in horror. Among the directors to feature includes the directors of The Babadook, Splice, Mandy, and many more.
Wednesday (Season 1)
Release Date: TBD
Picture: Netflix
Years after her last appearance on our screen, Wednesday Addams is back in a new family comedy series that sees the character at school attempting to master her abilities and solve mysteries.
Jenna Ortega will be taking up the role of Wednesday but the series will also see the return of Christina Ricci, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzman and Jamie McShane.
Licensed Halloween Movies Coming to Netflix
The Munsters
Release Date: TBD
Note: Only releasing in the United States.
Rob Zombie is reviving The Munsters and it’ll be coming to Netflix but only in the United States.
The new movie sees the return of Herman and Lily who are on a “hauntingly hilarious trip” from Transylvania to Hollywood.
No release date has been announced for The Munsters as of yet, but previous Universal 1440 releases suggest that it’ll be day and date alongside its VOD release which is scheduled for September 27th.
Morbius
Release Date: TBD
Note: Only coming to Netflix US – also available on Netflix India.
Morbius – Picture: Sony Pictures Releasing
Is Morbius a Halloween movie? Not really but it does feature vampires which is enough of a link for us to include it here.
Despite not getting the best reviews in the world, Morbius has become an internet phenomenon and will no doubt make waves when it comes to Netflix as part of the Sony Pictures first window deal in the States.
No release date for Morbius in the United States just yet despite it already releasing on Netflix in India in the first window in India. If it arrives in the same timeline as Uncharted, we expect Morbius to drop on September 16th, 2022.
