The ‘Haul Out…’ movies

Haul Out the Holly (2022)
As noted above, the first entry in the ‘Haul Out…’ movie series made its debut in 2022. The film followed the story of Emily – a young woman who unexpectedly spends the holiday season alone at her parents’ house on Evergreen Lane.
However, what should be a fairly chilled time soon becomes a little more chaotic than expected. The local homeowners association is organising Christmas festivities and insists Emily participates. (84 mins)
Haul Out the Holly: Lit Up (2023)
In Haul Out the Holly: Lit Up, a year has passed since the events of the previous film, and as the holidays approach, Emily and her boyfriend Jared are looking forward to celebrating the festive season together again. Emily is even ready to embrace Evergreen Lane’s unique festive spirit to make this year’s Christmas celebrations the best yet.
However, when a house on the block goes up for sale, it causes quite a stir with the local residents. The new neighbours are holiday royalty, and it looks like this year’s festive competition is set to heat up.
Haul Out the Halloween (2025)
In this third instalment in the ‘Haul Out…‘ movie series, the focus switches from Christmas to Halloween. However, while Evergreen Lane is renowned for its Christmas displays, things are less impressive as far as Halloween is concerned.
But when spooky new neighbours, Luna and Marvin move to the block, Emily, Jared, and the rest of the homeowners association agree to get in on the seasonal spirit. This leads to an ‘EverScream Lane’ fundraising event, as well as a touch of rediscovered joy for Emily.
