What's Coming to HBO Max in October 2025

Just in time for Halloween, HBO Max has unveiled their lineup of shows and movies coming to the streaming platform in October. However, the show everyone has been waiting for is the prequel to Stephen King’s It, It: Welcome to Derry. From the same team from the recent It movies, the series takes place in the early 1960s revealing a previous encounter between Pennywise and a group of kids. And yes, Bill Skarsgard will reprise his role from the films. If demonic clowns are not your thing, there are a host of horror titles streaming as well including A24’s Bring Her Back.

Don’t worry, it’s not all screams debuting this month. The new comedy series, The Chair Company, premieres on October 12th. In the series, a man finds himself investigating a far-reaching conspiracy after an embarrassing incident at work.

These are just a few movies and shows streaming this month. Below is a list of everything coming to Max in October. In addition, Max offers a variety of content from several channels including HBO, TLC, HGTV, Food Network, Discovery channel and more.
