Disney Channel Monstober

4/5 - (320 votes)

What is Monstober? Monstober (previously named Disney Channel’s Hauntober Fest and later called Wiz-tober in 2008) was a nightly marathon of Halloween-related movies that debuted on October 1, 2005 on Disney Channel. In 2012, Wiz-tober was renamed Monstober to prepare for the Girl Vs. Monster premiere. Monstober officially ended after October 2016. Beginning in 2021, Disney Channel ran the “Calling All the Monsters” programming block during October, featuring various Halloween-themed TV specials and original movies. It is rumored that the Disney Channel will be re-launching the Monstober programming event in October 2024.

    How about some classics like The Haunted Mansion, Tower of Terror, maybe the Winnie the Pooh Halloween movie. Something for families with all ages. This lineup is severly disappointing.

    • We agree Courtney, we would have loved to see all three of those included this year.

    This is such a sad lineup. And to put the BEST Halloween Disney movies one time only and at 3am is horrible. Phantom of the megaplex, halloweentown, underwraps, tower of terror, all those should be much easier to watch on the channel especially being that they aren’t available anywhere on the Internet or on DVD. Saddens me what has happened to Disney channel! Play the even stevens and lizzie mcguire Halloween specials too!!!

    Thankful for my DVR. I’ve recorded all of the 3 am movies so far. Apparently The Scream Team and other movies are on Disney on demand, but I’m not paying extra for that. On demand is supposed to be free if you already pay the channel, but not with Disney.

    This is the worst Disney lineup! Why are your movies only airing once and most of them at 3 AM? Halloween town only once?! This is a classic! What about Tower of Terror? October is meant for scary movies overnight, at least give us something! ABC family is even better than this. Very very disappointed

    I know these comments won’t reach anyone but why not give it a try..I’m very disappointed with this line up as well! If you play the TV shows play them in the day time and save the “family movie time” for movies! And what happened to the older movie everyone loves!! I personally try to watch the movie “don’t look under the bed” every year and every year I miss it cause its only played once at a really weird time. Or the “Halloween town” movies everyone loves them!! Not to mention this stops on the 29th!? Disney has been a real let down for Halloween for a little while I just wish people would pull it together!

  • What a really cruddy line up Disney has for Monstober!!! What the heck happened to Halloween town series???? Extremely disappointed !!!!

  • I go along with all the comments above. Disney isn’t the same anymore and yes they say it’s for the better, but what about those of us that remember the original Disney channel? I miss the Classic Disney with Minnie and Mickey Mouse, Halloween town movies, that’s so Raven, and so many others. This whole Disney rewind crap at midnight and later doesn’t cut it! Honestly who’s even up that late to watch any of those great shows? If Disney wants people to continue watching there channel, they either need to fix the scheduling or create a channel for the classic Disney. I have ETC and I get three different Disney stations but none of which show anything worth watching. Come on Disney!!!

    • I completely agree… Like where is twitches… Excuse me… Did you think you could get away with not playing HALLOWEENTOWN!?… This time of year isn’t about the kids anymore.. It’s about us watching the movies that we grew up with. Who knows where I can file a complaint. All I have to say is.. Disney you messed up this time… I’m extremely disappointed.

        My daughter’s and I have made watching Disney during Halloween a tradition. Sad to see our most favorites no longer exist! The Halloween Town franchise, Twitches, Twitches 2, Haunted Mansion and Hocus Pocus. Honestly, we ( 3 generation’s now) were looking forward to keeping this tradition alive. However, no longer! Option now is to buy or watch Netflix….which, is not the same, EHAT A SHAME!
