47 New Titles Hit Netflix US This Week, Kicking Off Halloween Season Early

In the US, Netflix has just wrapped up a remarkably busy week: between September 20 and 26, the service added 47 new titles, including 30 movies and 17 series. According to fan site "What's on Netflix," the latest batch clearly signals the early start of Halloween season with a heavy tilt toward horror and thrillers.

Among the highlights is M. Night Shyamalan’s home‑invasion chiller Knock at the Cabin, a prime pick for at‑home horror viewing. True‑crime and suspense fans get fresh options too, with the Netflix original film Unabomber about the manhunt for Ted Kaczynski and the Spanish mystery limited series The Final Problem, set on a storm‑lashed island off Mallorca where all the guests become suspects in a suspicious death.

The site also notes that Netflix has released its full October 2026 schedule, framing this week’s 47 additions as a kind of prologue to a larger Halloween push that will roll out through next month. While the exact lineup and dates can differ on Netflix Japan, this US snapshot is a useful barometer of how the platform is programming for long autumn evenings and “spooky season” viewing.
