Forget Christmas; for fans of horror, October is the most wonderful time of the fear. And this month on Sling TV, we've got more Halloween goodies than the house down the street handing out full candy bars to trick-or-treaters. From non-stop movie marathons to new episodes of your favorite zombie shows to entirely new (and fun) zombie shows, Sling will fill your “scary movies and shows” pillowcase with delicious horror content all month long. Candy not included, but encouraged.
