If you're not up to the stretch of movie-viewing, lots of series have also angled Halloween episodes to scare you. "Will & Grace" will tense you up as the characters try to figure out who Grace's baby daddy is.

TNT is also joining the Halloween fun with a nine-hour "Supernatural" marathon. It starts at 10 am and will run until 7 pm. Some episodes we anticipate are "Yellow Fever" and "The French Mistake."

Scary movies to stream on Netflix

Streaming giant Netflix is not one to be left behind this Halloween. The service just released a slew of new horrors; there's also some oldie but goodies you can tune into.

For the kids, the new show "Prank Encounters" will give them a fright. Additionally, just-released Netflix originals like "Rattlesnake," "Eli," "Fractured," and "In the Tall Grass" are on.

The show "Daybreak" just came out, and Netflix just got ahold off hit thrillers including "Sinister 2," "Scream 2," and the new season of "American Horror Story: Apocalypse."
