Guillermo Del Toro and Netflix&#039;s tie up for a spine-tingling horror series

Guillermo del Toro And Netflix&#8217;s Tie up For a Spine Tingling Horror, &#8216;Cabinet of Curiosities&#8217; Comes With An Experimental Release Schedule

As that time of the year is nearing when the streets get spooky and people
transform into spine-tingling creatures, the streaming services also get a
little scary. Yes, we are indeed talking about Halloween and all of its
traditions in its entirety. Netflix sure knows how to capitalize on such
occasions. The preparations begin some two months prior to the Allhallows
weekend. From combing down the plethora of titles they already have to adding
some new bees, the streaming giant does everything in its power to provide its
audience with a rather spooktacular time. And this time around, it is certainly
in the mood to go big. Netflix has teamed up with the true master of horrors,
Guillermo del Toro to bring a brand new anthology series called Cabinet of
Curiosities to the platform.



Coming to challenge our notions of what true horror is, the eight-part series
sure will bring some blood-curdling terrors. Although there’s not much
information out as of now, we do know one thing about the series’ release
schedule, and it is a rather interesting one. Debuting its first 2 episodes on
October 25, it will drop the other episodes in sets of 2 every day till the 28th
of the same month. While the streaming giant is known for its binge-first
approach, this way of releasing a series is a rare exception. But why did
Netflix adopt such a strategy? Let’s figure it out.


NETFLIX’S RELEASE SCHEDULE OF THE NEW HORROR SHOW BY GUILLERMO DEL TORO COULD
HINT AT SOME MAJOR CHANGES

While Netflix certainly takes pleasure in marketing its daily, weekly, and
monthly Top 10 rundowns with shows garnering a million minutes’ viewing
time, Cabinet of Curiosities
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-experience-the-new-worlds-8-chilling-horror-stories-in-guillermo-del-toro-cabinet-of-curiosities/] is
probably here to bring a change. Since 2022 brought the first large subscriber
loss in Netflix’s history, it’s likely that the horror series is a part of a
larger plan to try alternative methods of providing content to fans around the
world at a time when Netflix is looking into putting advertising into the mix.

> 8 chilling stories. 4 nights of double features. 1 Netflix Halloween event.
> 
> Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities begins October 25.

Notably, for some unscripted shows on the streaming service, like Love Is Blind
[http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/love-is-blind/]and Too Hot to Handle
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-original-too-hot-to-handle-real/], staggered
episode drops have been used. However, it is unknown how effective this
scheduling will be. Nevertheless, the fact that they split the fourth season of
Stranger Things [http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] into two parts
may have been a sign that further adjustments were coming. And well, there is no
better test subject for that sort of stuff than a horror project.
