Added DiffLines:

Emma (Rachael Netherton) and Dominic (Nathan O. Miller) are a couple in love, but can only ever meet for a few minutes every three months. Oh, and Emma is being stalked by some guy who's wearing a skull mask.

The hook of the film is that, unlike most Anthology Films, this one forgoes having a host presenting the stories. Rather, it jumps between the stories as they happen over the course of a single night.

''One Night In October'' is a [[HorrorFilms Horror Film]] by Christopher M. Carter.

In a small town, three events occur on the night before Halloween.

Michelle (Jessica Morgan) has recently moved to town, and is busy decorating for the festivities. However, she soon finds herself bound in the garage by a couple of masked folks who want to rob her. However, they never counted on her [[TheKillerInMe having a more insane split personality]].

Kate (Casey Norman) and her girlfriend Charlie (Kaitlin Renee) are out with their friends Marcos (Andrew Kincaid) and his girlfriend Britnee (Sara Jackson) on the road when they decide to stop at a farm. The owner, however, isn't too keen on having four strangers on her property, and tells them to leave. That night, their car breaks down, and they can't get it to work. They decide to ask the farmer if they can use her phone, so Kate and Charlie head out to find her. Unfortunately for them, they're not alone in the cornfield.

The movie was released on October 6th, 2017.
