Paramount+ Launches 2025 “Peak Screaming” Collection

Staying in on Halloween? We have just the thing for you. Paramount+ has officially launched its annual Peak Screaming Collection, bringing over 450 horror films, series, and Halloween specials to the platform for the 2025 Halloween season. The collection, available now, includes a wide range of titles from classic franchises to new releases, highlighted by the Paramount+ original film Vicious starring Dakota Fanning.

Written and directed by Bryan Bertino (The Strangers), Vicious follows Polly (Fanning), who receives a mysterious box from a late-night visitor along with one cryptic rule: place inside something you need, something you hate, and something you love. Opening the box plunges her into a surreal nightmare where each choice brings devastating consequences.

The 2025 Peak Screaming lineup also features complete collections from major horror franchises, including Scream, Paranormal Activity, Smile, A Quiet Place, and Pet Sematary.
