What is FearFest?  In 1997, the AMC network launched Monsterfest, a popular week-long marathon of horror movies and thrillers that aired in late October. On September 26, 2008, AMC announced the launch of a new horror-themed movie marathon for its October schedule called “Fearfest,” which replaced Monsterfest.  Fear Fest typically runs from mid-October every year until Halloween (often the day after, too), and in recent years has run throughout the entire month of October as well.

AMC’s annual horror marathon FearFest brings the frights in the lead-up to Halloween with 31 days of genre programming featuring 80 films and 400 hours of programming. Includes the iconic film franchises Halloween, Friday the 13th, Leprechaun, Alien, and Stephen King classics.
