Halloween season is finally here, meaning there’s no better time to watch a horror movie. Be it a tale of exorcism or a psychological thriller about the dangers lurking in every corner, horror movies have a unique way of tackling our primal fears, making us more alert, and giving us a much-needed fright. The streamer has a considerable collection of horror movies covering every subgenre and theme under the sun, so there’s no better place to be this Halloween season.

Some of the best new movies to stream offer chills and thrills while delivering a high-quality experience for terror-starved audiences. Netflix stays consistent every month with new and exciting arrivals that make up for whatever movies are leaving the service. We also found some of the best movies on Netflix, to give you something to watch between scary movies. With supernatural stories, psychological thrillers, and good old-fashioned slashers, these are the best horror movies that Netflix has to offer, and we wholeheartedly recommend them.

Looking to get your scares elsewhere? We’ve curated guides to the best horror movies on Amazon Prime Video and the best horror movies on Hulu. Need more recommendations? Then check out the best movies on Hulu, the best movies on Amazon Prime Video, the best movies on Max, and the best movies on Disney+.

There’s a certain level of fandom you hit when you research a band’s tour set list before they come to your city. And some of us like to relive great concerts with some quick research on setlist.fm. The next logical step, once we’re armed with this information, is to create a playlist on our preferred streaming service for quick access. Thanks to third-party options like Setify, the process is easy for Apple Music and Spotify users, but you still have to take the time to do it.

Apple Music has now given artists the ability to turn set lists into playlists thanks to info from tour info site Bandsintown. Once an artist has connected the two services, they can select the type of show in Apple Music for Artists (concert, tour or residency) and link it to upcoming dates on Bandsintown. From there, artists can set a publish date and use search to build out the playlist. These collections of songs can include original tunes the artist covers or collaborations with other acts. Apple Music allows unlimited set list playlists for past or future shows, but the service recommends that artists select a track listing that most accurately reflects the whole tour if they’re making one for an entire run of dates.

Set lists playlists aren’t entirely new on Apple Music. The service has been curating playlists for popular tours for a while now, like Zach Bryan’s 2024 Quittin’ Time Tour. What’s more, Apple Music is touting this new tool as a promotional feature for artists, so there are a number of ways to share the playlists once they’re live. However, it will also be a great item for fans who either want more info on the songs they can expect to hear, can’t make it to a stop on a tour or want to relive the experience of seeing the band in person.

Of course, if one of your favorites doesn’t hop on this bandwagon, you still have options for set list playlists. With Setify, you can link either Apple Music or Spotify and pull in data from setlist.fm in order to make your collections. It’s not perfect, but it works well most of the time, and you can always adjust things in the streaming service apps if you need to further curate a playlist. I recently missed one of my all-time favorites at Furnace Fest, but thanks to this combo, I can at least get a small piece of Blindside playing through About a Burning Fire.

NASA astronaut Matthew Dominick is preparing to fly home aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule at the end of the seven-month Crew-8 mission, but he recently found time to snap an incredible night shot featuring the Nile River, the Nile Delta, Cairo, and beyond.

“Moonlight illuminates Cairo and the Mediterranean on a mostly clear night,” Dominick wrote in a message accompanying the photo that was shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday.

“We were up late last night sleep shifting in preparation for undocking and return to Earth in the next few days,” Dominick continued. “Cairo at night is one of my favorite views. I am happy the timing worked out to see it one more time before we depart.”

Captured from 250 miles above Earth, Dominick used a 50mm lens set at f1.2, 1/10 second, and ISO 3200. He doesn’t specify the camera body but going by his earlier work, it’s likely to have been a Nikon Z9.

Dominick, on his first missions to space, has been wowing fans with some incredible imagery taken during his seven months aboard the orbital outpost. But this latest shot must be one of his finest night images yet.

The American astronaut is making final preparations with three other astronauts for the return journey to Earth. The voyage has already been delayed due to poor weather conditions in the splashdown zone off the coast of Florida.

NASA said on Sunday that there had been “a marginal improvement in forecast weather conditions in potential splashdown sites off the coast of Florida for the return of the Crew-8 mission,” adding that Crew-8 is currently targeting undocking from the ISS no earlier than 9:05 p.m. ET on Monday, October 21. It added that the earliest splashdown opportunity for the Crew Dragon spacecraft is about 12:55 p.m. ET on Tuesday, October 22.

Update 10/17/24 11:05am ET: Amazon has raised the price of the 55-inch model by $100, which brings the final price down to $1,297. While not quite as low as it was just a few hours ago, that’s still about $500 off the original price and a good deal.

I don’t know about you but I will be spending most of the upcoming cold months sitting on my couch and watching television (with some books thrown in). The only thing I’m missing is a really good television set and, while I’ll be opting for a more budget-friendly pick, I’m tempted by the sale on LG’s C3 Series OLED TV. Right now, the 55-inch model is down to $1,197 from $1,800 — a 34 percent discount. The all-time low price isn’t the only version on sale, with the 42-inch option dropping to $997 from $1,197.

LG released the C3 series last year as a mid-range OLED option. It offers an a9 AI Processor Gen6, HDR tone mapping, AI upscaling and object-based picture sharpening. The TVs also come with Brightness Booster, which — though not to the level of some of its competitors — makes it easier to watch even in a relatively sunny room.

If you want the newest model then check out LG’s C4 OLED series. The 2024 release is also on sale, with the 55-inch version down to $1,297 from $2,000 — the same 35 percent discount we recently saw on Prime Day. The C4 TVs offer nearly 1,000 nits of brightness and a maximum refresh rate of 144Hz. This model will also wirelessly connect with LG soundbars, foregoing the need for messy cables.
