The new series, inspired by the author’s Scholastic book series, will only be available on Disney+, Hulu and Freeform.

Five episodes of the new series will premiere on Friday, Oct. 13 on Disney+ and Hulu. The premiere is part of Disney+’s “Hallowstream” and Hulu’s “Huluween” celebrations.

After the first five episodes drop on the 13th, the rest will air weekly.

Fans who want to check out the series but don’t have Disney+ or Hulu can watch the first two episodes on Freeform on Oct. 13.

Stine’s work has inspired television shows and movies for decades, including the original series which ran from 1995 to 1998 and “The Haunting Hour: The Series,” from 2010 to 2014.

The original series focused on new characters in each episode, whereas the new show follows five high schoolers as they put on their investigative hats and look into a teenager’s death three decades earlier.
