HBO Max's 'Don't Stream Alone' Promotes Its Halloween Content
Ellen Smith — October 8, 2020 — Marketing
HBO Max's 'Don't Stream Alone' campaign promotes it spooky content ahead of Halloween. This year, Halloween will look a little different than normal. With no horror movie parties or trick or treaters, it may seem like the holiday is cancelled. Luckily, brands like HBO are responding with socially distant ideas that can both terrify and connect consumers during these isolating times.
Its new campaign promotes the streaming service's horror-related content as well as its group watch capabilities. This two-fold message reminds consumers that while it may be safer to be alone physically, we can still leverage watch parties for some virtual comfort and socialization. Some of the halloween-related movies on the platform include Night of the Living Dead or the more modern Invisible Man.
