It’s Halloweentime and Hulu continues to celebrate with the best of them with their annual Huluween event, this time being haunted by a malevolent presence!
“Uluh, an evil spirit, has been watching from inside as brave viewers sign-in to catch their favorite Halloween classics, or find new ones to satisfy their hunger for fear,” revealed the press release.
“Hulu has been putting viewers at the center of a spooky and immersive on-channel world as the mysterious Uluh made herself known throughout the month. It wasn’t clear what, or who, she wanted…until today.
Uluh’s origin story was revealed today in a short film titled “The Veil”!
Viewers finally have the chance to learn more about the tragic fate of Uluh, a would-be Hollywood star whose career was cut short by a fatal automobile accident. Now she returns to Hulu to claim the fame that eluded her when she was alive. Watch the short now and then ENTER THE HULUWEEN HUB…IF YOU DARE!
From the press release:
“Last year, Hulu subscribers spent their month glued to the screen, watching over 120 million hours of Huluween programming, and there is no shortage of creepy content available for those looking to get into the holiday spirit all month long.
“Hulu has premiered 18 brand new Bite Size Halloween shorts, ranging from the terrifying to the ridiculous, and featuring some familiar faces including Eric Roberts, Troian Bellisario (Pretty Little Liars), and Yalitza Aparicio (Roma). The short films explore different areas of the horror genre and provide a platform for exciting up-and-coming filmmakers.
“The experience will also feature Original and acquired programming in the curated Huluween Hub, including the premieres of horror favorites like Censor (premiering 10/14), The Evil Next Door (premiering 10/21), and Gaia (premiering 10/22), and classics like The Rocky Horror Picture Show (premiering 10/1), as well as bone-chilling TV episodes and movies from the Hulu library curated into hand-picked collections like “Humorous Horror,” Frights for the Whole Family,” “Terrifying TV,” “Foreign Frights,” and many more!
