Now that spooky season is in full gear, one of the most popular horror franchises in the history of cinema has its time to shine. The Universal Monsters have been a staple of pop culture for the better part of a century and for the most part, they’re all available to streaming through various streaming services.
Since NBCUniversal has its own streaming service, most of the films can be found on Peacock Premium. As of this writing, a few dozen monster movies–including most foundational building blocks of the franchise–can be found on the service, including Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy, The Invisible Man, The Bride of Frankenstein, and The Wolf Man. The full list of Universal Monsters movies available to stream on Peacock can be found below:
Interestingly enough, the Creature is the only Universal monster without its main movie on Peacock. Because of licensing issues or arrangements, Creature from the Black Lagoon is streaming on Tubi. The Creature can, however, be seen on Peacock in The Creature Walks Among Us.
Unfortunately for those looking for a comedic take on classic horror, the three Abott and Costello and Universal Monster movie crossovers are not available on any streaming service. The three movies–Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, Abbott and Costello Meet the Invisible Man, and Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy–are instead available to rent through other digital providers.
