Save 40%: As of Oct. 8, get 12 months of AMC+ for $4.99/month ($59.88 billed annually instead of the usual $83.88). You'll save a total of $24.


If you haven't explored its library yet, AMC+ is a versatile streaming service that's great for more than another Walking Dead marathon. While add-ons like Showtime typically cost a little extra, AMC+ subscribers get free access to outside platforms like BBC America, Sundance, IFC, and Shudder — making AMC+ is an especially sweet login to have during spooky season.

Signing up now is definitely the move, too. As of Oct. 8, you can secure a year of the service for 40% less than usual.

After creating an account for the seven-day trial, AMC lets you pick a tier: Commit to a year for $4.99/month (usually $6.99/month without the deal) or get billed monthly for $8.99/month. The deal saves you $24 on the regular annual bill and is technically 50% cheaper than going month by month.

Oh, and AMC+ is ad-free.

Crowd-favorite shows like Mad Men and, of course, the entire Walking Dead universe call AMC+ home, as well as newer goodies like Kevin Can Fuck Himself (hi Annie Murphy!) and Gangs of London.

Shudder is a must-have for fans of horror classics. You can watch the original Halloween, Hellraiser, and Carrie, as well as acclaimed Shudder originals like Host and V/H/S/94. If you need something a little more niche, IFC and Sundance definitely have some scares that you haven't seen yet.
