September is turning into a gold rush for Peacock subscribers, a horror lover, especially, and a fan of the original series couldn’t resist. Everything from twisted thrillers to comfort-watch classics is flowing in from the platform, making it the perfect time to dive in. If you’re gearing up for the spooky season or just craving something new to stream, here are ten must-watch titles that will Peacong this month, listed in order of suspense to give you a little extra suspense.
10. Knock at the Cabin
M. Night Shyamalan’s Someday Chamber centers a family in the forest with strangers who say that the fate of the Earth depends on them. It’s very nervous, disquieting, and made for those who like the genre of psychological horror. If you are longing for its theatrical release, then September is your opportunity to see it with the utmost comfort of your space.
9. Abigail
Do you think you’ve read every vampire story? No, really. In this biting, humorous, and gore-filled retelling, a gang of thugs comes across a captive who’s not only young but also fiercely independent. It is a very dark comedy and gore-mongering. Abigail is a mad race that gets you hooked until the very last page.
8. Screamboat
A midnight-movie fever dream: what if Steamboat Willie as a slasher? A horror spoof about a late-night New York City ferry, this horror-comedy unleashes a crazy mouse on unsuspecting passengers. It’s meta, absurd, and destined for cult fame among horror-comedy fans.
7. Brightburn
Shed the “S” on Superman’s chest—the things that go wrong when superpowers go haywire. Directed by James Gunn, Brightburn flips the superhero origin tale on its head into a horror tale of pure power and teenage angst. A dark watch for anyone who likes a darker take on capes and costumes.
6. Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare
Peter Pan, horror. This version of the classic children’s story makes it several times as bad, with Wendy battling to free Michael from Peter before he becomes the next in a series of lost boys. A dark fairy story with a horrifically creepy twist.
5. Horror Marathons Galore
Peacock is going heavy on seasonal programming: every Chucky movie, loads of Amityville installments, and a treasure trove of Universal monster classics. Whether you’re a slasher devotee or a sucker for black-and-white creature features, there’s plenty here to fuel your Halloween countdown.
4. Love Island Games: Season 2
If you are ready for a respite from all that bloodletting, Peacock has you covered with some reality television soap. U.S., U.K., Australia, and global Islanders return for high-pressure competitions and love dramas, hosted by Ariana Madix and narrated by Iain Stirling. Drama levels will be set to eleven.
3. Streaming Premieres of Jeopardy! & Wheel of Fortune
Two of America’s finest game shows are now available to stream. Ken Jennings continues to guide contestants through brain-bending trivia on Jeopardy!, and Ryan Seacrest hosts with Vanna White in a new era of Wheel of Fortune. Perfect palate cleaners after a horror marathon.
2. The Paper (Peacock Original)
From Greg Daniels (The Office) comes The Paper, a mockumentary office comedy series based on a floundering neighborhood newspaper. Expect the same combination of cringe, charm, and dry character work that made The Office a hit. All of the episodes are available at once, so it’s great binge material.
1. Monkey Man
Dev Patel directs his first film with a breakneck action thriller that’s already making a splash. As an India-based underground fighter, Patel delivers intense fight sequences and revenge against corruption. A stylish, emotional, and utterly absorbing film, Monkey Man tops Peacock’s September must-see list.
Peacock’s releases for September are really fantastic and diverse, including scares, laughs, nostalgia, and action-packed originals. The line-up is really perfect to watch at night, whether you decide to binge the classics of horror or to preview the next big original series.
