October is here, and that means it’s time for our 31 Days of Horror! In this video episode of Hack or Slash, we walk you through the official Starter Guide for this year’s challenge.

We cover:
• How we've adopted the 31 Days tradition
• How to approach the calendar themes (and make them your own)
• Tips for pacing yourself during the marathon
• Why TV episodes and shorter formats count
• Our brand-new 31 Days Tracker to log your progress and revisit episodes from our archive
• How to join the community conversation on Discord

Whether you’re new to the challenge or looking to sharpen your watchlist strategy, this guide will get you ready to survive all 31 days.
