Our favorite Halloween movie of 2015, the horror anthology Tales of Halloween (read my review) is finally coming home, as Epic Pictures announced today the upcoming release of a massive four-disc Blu-ray collector’s edition set that is loaded with tasty treats.

Epic Pictures Group announced today that they will release a limited edition Blu-ray and DVD collector’s set of Tales of Halloween on September 13, 2016.

“Certified Fresh” by Rotten Tomatoes, the horror anthology film, which brings together an all-star lineup of horror heavyweight directors and actors, premiered to strong critical acclaim at the 2015 Fantasia International Film Festival. Epic Pictures Releasing, the US distribution division of Epic Pictures Group, released the film in theaters and on digital platforms on October 16, 2015.

This critically acclaimed film weaves together ten chilling tales from horror’s top directors. Ghosts, ghouls, monsters, and the devil delight in terrorizing unsuspecting residents of a suburban neighborhood on Halloween night.

The all-star directorial lineup includes Neil Marshall (“Game of Thrones,” The Descent, Lost in Space), Darren Lynn Bousman (Saw 2, 3, 4), Lucky McKee (The Woman, All Cheerleaders Must Die), and Mike Mendez (Gravedancers, Big Ass Spider!), with cameos by horror heavyweights such as Barry Bostwick (The Rocky Horror Picture Show), Lin Shaye (Insidious), John Savage (The Deer Hunter), Adrienne Barbeau (The Fog), John Landis (Director of Animal House), Joe Dante (Director of Gremlins), Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator, We Are Still Here), Booboo Stewart (Twilight), Keir Gilchrist (It Follows), Grace Phipps (Fright Night), Pat Healy (Cheap Thrills), Kristina Klebe (Rob Zombie’s Halloween), Greg Grunberg (“Heroes,” Star Wars: The Force Awakens), Alex Essoe (Starry Eyes), Pollyanna McIntosh (The Woman), and more.

In addition to the feature film on both Blu-ray and DVD, the limited edition collector’s set will also contain a DVD chock-full of bonus features and a CD of the film’s soundtrack featuring original tracks by Lalo Schifrin, Jimmy Psycho, Christopher Drake, and Christian Henson.
