TUBI CARVES OUT SPOOKY GOOD FUN WITH NEW ORIGINAL MOVIE "R.L. STINE'S PUMPKINHEAD"

The New Young-Adult Horror Movie Inspired by R.L. Stine's "The Haunting Hour" Short Story Brings his Iconic Thrills Exclusively to Tubi October 17th

SAN FRANCISCO, SEPTEMBER 23, 2025 - Tubi (www.tubi.tv), Fox Corporation's (NASDAQ: FOXA, FOX) ad-supported streaming service, announced today it is getting into the spirit of Halloween with the upcoming original movie R.L. STINE'S PUMPKINHEAD, premiering exclusively on October 17. Inspired by R.L. Stine's beloved The Haunting Hour, the new young-adult horror movie blends just the right mix of chills and thrills, delivering a frightfully fun experience.

"R.L. STINE'S PUMPKINHEAD is a playful blend of good fun, big scares with an element of adventure that taps into everything audiences love about Halloween and young-adult horror," said Adam Lewinson, Chief Content Officer at Tubi. "We're thrilled to collaborate with the legendary "master of fear," R.L. Stine as part of our growing slate of YA storytelling that bridges generations and delivers fresh, genre-driven entertainment."

A teenager, Sam thought moving to Redhaven was the worst part - until his brother Finn vanishes and no one, not even their mom, remembers he existed. With Halloween ticking down, Sam, his friend Becka, and Rusty, the town's most eccentric outcast, must stop a harvest curse before Finn is lost forever.

"There's something rotten inside these pumpkins--and it isn't pumpkin meat! I'm so happy to see one of my most terrifying Halloween stories brought to chilling life in this new movie!" - R.L. Stine

R.L. STINE'S PUMPKINHEAD stars Bean Reid, Adeline Lo (Sorry For Your Cost), Kevin McNulty (Snakes on a Plane, The Invisible), Bob Frazer (Safe Haven, Motherland: Fort Salem), Matty Finochio (Love Hard, The Order) and Seth Isaac Johnson (My Old Ass, The Killing).
