New Hulu TV Shows and Movies in October 2025

For many, October means Huluween, so why not scare yourself with a new show that sheds light on some real-life horror? Patricia Arquette and Jason Clarke star in the platform's latest true crime adaptation, Murdaugh: Death in the Family, which is based on Mandy Matney's Murdaugh Murders Podcast and digs into the case of a wealthy South Carolina family hiding very dark secrets. Murdaugh: Death in the Family premieres on Hulu on Oct. 15.

Earlier in September, Abbott Elementary return for Season 5, which will stream new episodes on Hulu the day after airing on ABC. And if none of that is for you, all the Twilight movies hit Hulu this month. As we all know, Twilight is the great uniter.

Check out everything coming to and leaving Hulu in October below.

Abbott Elementary Season 5 (Oct. 2)

After that fateful visit from the Always Sunny gang, the teachers of Willard R. Abbott Elementary School deserve a break. But they're not getting it, because school is back in session and there are some changes in store for our favorite Philly-based educators. Janine (Quinta Brunson) is now handling a class of 40 second-graders ("I, for one, am excited to see if it will break her," says Janelle James' Ava), Melissa (Lisa Ann Walter) is moving up to teach middle-schoolers, and Gregory (Tyler James Williams) is busy teaching Mr. Johnson (William Stanford Davis) how to ride a bike. Also, the ceiling in the teachers' lounge seems to be caving in. All in a day's work at Abbott. [Trailer]

Murdaugh: Death in the Family (Oct. 15)

The last time Patricia Arquette starred in a Hulu series based on a real-life crime, she won an Emmy, so it makes sense why she'd want to return to that particular niche. Murdaugh: Death in the Family is based on Mandy Matney's Murdaugh Murders Podcast, which dug into the crimes and corruption surrounding the titular Murdaughs, a powerful legal dynasty from South Carolina whose lavish life masked a hidden darkness that was exposed after their son was involved in a deadly boat crash. Arquette stars as matriarch Maggie while Jason Clarke plays her husband, Alex. [Trailer]
