It’s Halloween and what better way for horror fans to celebrate than with the announcement of a brand new, free-to-air and free-to-stream (or scream!) TV channel dedicated to horror – SCREAM TV.

NYX Media Corporation will launch SCREAM TV in North America at 6am EST on October 13th, 2024. SCREAM TV will be available to view within the DistroTV app on any Roku and Amazon Fire TV as well as IOS and Android devices, with many more ways to view coming soon.

“We are so excited to launch SCREAM TV and bring our unique horror entertainment experience to the fans across North America for free,” says NYX Media Corporation CEO Corinne Ferguson. “One of our passions as horror fans is to painstakingly craft a journey through the horror genre worthy of the viewer's time every night and 24/7. Our programming is done with the utmost respect towards our viewer's time – which we feel is one of the most precious commodities – and we want the viewer to have the best experience possible, so lean back and let us entertain you.

SCREAM TV also has great respect for the content creators, and we are excited to share the success of the film on our channel with them, both in terms of publicity and financial aspects. We really want the content creators to feel respected, valued and appreciated too. At SCREAM TV, there truly is something for every type of horror fan, even the young ones, so tune in.”
