The 40 Best Horror Movies on HBO Max to Stream for Halloween

Warner Brothers

What's better than sitting around, eating candy and watching the best horror movies on HBO Max during the Halloween season? Let's talk about it!

Halloween never ends. Despite America’s penchant for spooky stuff during October, some people aren’t satisfied with reserving their demonic delights for just one month out of the year. Netflix was once home to the greatest horror films ever made, but recently their curation has been lacking. Shudder, a newer site populated exclusively with horror content, has picked up the slack by making rare indie and foreign films available—but it’s missing a lot of classics.

Luckily, HBO Max has filled in those gaps by showcasing some of the greatest scary movies ever made. From sci-fi-inspired stories to barf-inducing torture-porn, we’re counting down the best horror movies on HBO Max that are currently available on this amazing streaming service.
