New to Disney Plus in October 2024: Muppet Haunted Mansion and Black Widow

Disney Plus launched in 2019 with most of Disney’s back catalog, but the platform hasn’t reached maximum capacity just yet. In addition to original content, like upcoming episodes of Marvel’s What If…?, there’s a host of movies and shows wrapped up under other streaming services and licenses. Each month, a few new titles will trickle onto Disney Plus.

It’s a month full of Halloween specials, including a spooky Lego Star Wars one and the first ever Muppet Halloween special! Also, new episodes of What If… ?, Turner and Hooch, and Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.. Black Widow will be available to all subscribers. From the back catalogue comes Don Bluth’s Thumbelina, two Alvin and the Chipmunk movies, and more.

While waiting for his X-Wing to be repaired, Poe, BB-8, Graballa, and Dean (a plucky and courageous young boy who works as Graballa’s mechanic) venture deep into the mysterious castle with Vader’s loyal servant, Vaneé. Along the way, Vaneé shares three creepy stories linked to ancient artifacts and iconic villains from across all eras of Star Wars. As Vaneé spins his tales and lures our heroes deeper into the shadowy underbelly of the castle, a sinister plan emerges. With the help of Dean, Poe and BB-8 will have to face their fears, stop an ancient evil from rising, and escape to make it back to their friends.
