Haunt Season is currently streaming free with ads on Tubi. Epic Pictures’ specialty horror label DREAD originally released the Halloween slasher to a limited theatrical run on October 4, 2024, followed by VOD release on October 8, 2024.
SYNOPSIS: A masked maniac targets cast members at a suburban Halloween haunt attraction, turning their staged injuries into gruesome real-life horrors. As the terror escalates, the lines between performance and reality blur.
Haunt Season was filmed on-location at a working Midwest haunted house during its Halloween season and utilizes practical effects and jaw-dropping SFX makeup to achieve its terrifying kills.
The slasher film features prominent YouTube stars Rob Scallon and Craig Benzine in supporting roles. The soundtrack features songs from YouTube stars Rob Scallon and Andrew Huang and music by Composer Rasheed Thomas of the band Nonpoint.
Epic Pictures CEO Patrick Ewald says, “DREAD is the leader in Halloween films, and with HAUNT SEASON arriving just in time, it promises to kick off the spookiest time of the year in terrifying style. Brace yourself for a cinematic thrill that only DREAD can deliver.”
“HAUNT SEASON is about the world of passionate creatives. Partnering with a real haunted house gave us incredible insight into the world of haunters and there were so many parallels to our world of indie production.” says writer/director Jake Jarvi. “It’s about creative people doing what it takes to turn their dreams into reality. Except in this case one person’s dream is killing a whole lot of people.”
Written, directed, edited and co-produced by Jake Jarvi, the film stars Katelin Stack, Jeremy Warner, Rob Scallon, Brent Bentley, Sarah Elizabeth, Stephen Kristof, Craig Benzine, Tommy Martin, Brooklyn Lehman, Janet Jurado, Kelton Neals, Terry Holt, Cydney Moody and Adam Hinkle.

Jack-O's Review:
"I loved this film, awesome Halloween haunt neon colored scenes, likable characters with good natural acting for an indie film and the killer wears really great costume's for each kill. The kills are mostly off screen but are really creative. The movie ends too soon after the killer's reveal but I love their Conal Cochran-type Halloween III speech. I'll give it ★★★. I would've given it one more star if they showed more of the kills." Jack-O @trickhorrortreater
More Reviews:
“Jarvi and cinematographer Alexander Lakin take advantage of their location’s neon, candy coloured funfair aesthetic, and it’s a refreshing change from the grimy, squint inducing visuals of many of today’s indie horrors (and indeed many horror movies working with Hollywood budgets). By no means a slasher classic, Haunt Season offers enough in its enthusiasm to make it worthy of a spot on your spooky season watchlist…” ★★★½ TheMovieWaffler.com
“While it has some fun moments, Haunt Season suffers from uncertainty over just what kind of a film it wants to be. It bounces back and forth between horror and drama, frequently killing its own momentum in the process. It’s not until it ditches the drama in the final act and concentrates on scares that it really comes to life.” ★★½ VoicesFromTheBalcony.com
