Halloween Scenic Ride Review: 6 Spooky Stops with Bradley
Halloween Scenic Ride With Bradley Rose Launches on Peloton
Our review of the 30 minute class that sends riders through six spooky global locations with creative narration from Bradley.
The Halloween Scenic Ride with Bradley Rose is now in the Peloton library, a 30 minute cycling class that travels through spooky locations around the world. Unlike the studio-based Halloween classes and the other new Halloween scenic content, this Halloween Scenic Ride adds a loose story narrated by Bradley from start to finish. He’ll get you thinking, but also have you laughing!

Our Halloween Scenic Ride Review
If you are not drawn to heavy studio makeup classes, or you’re not a fan of punny seasonal playlists, Bradley Rose’s Halloween Scenic Ride offers a different approach, which I appreciated, to get in the seasonal spirit.

The class travels through six spooky locations: Bran Castle in Romania, the abandoned ghost town of Varosha, Savannah’s historic Bonaventure Cemetery, Yugoslavia’s Goli Otok island prison, Colorado’s Last Chance Mines, and a stormy sea.

Most of these are also new standalone scenic rides as well, in shorter durations. (And I am guessing the Savannah scenes come from the much older scenic content Adrian shot there five years ago?)

As of this writing, these are the other Halloween classes (more will follow). You can see the Scenic content that this class pulls from as standalone classes that use Peloton Radio.
Bradley balances a legitimate workout with ghost-story-style narration. He jokes about the cemetery neighborhood’s “quiet residents” and reminds riders he will pedal faster than we do to escape any grave-rising grabs.

In typical semi-serious Bradley fashion, he also offers reflective observations about lives lived, time passed, and what remains behind. This is why I love the guy.

The class plan is full and well paced, with clear cadence, resistance, and out-of-saddle cues. Effort builds steadily, with a brief recovery pace about 16 minutes in before the work picks back up. I took it as a Zone 2-3-4 ride and finished with a good sweat. As with most theme rides, all of the cues were optional.
The music scores shape the atmosphere well, though there are occasional disconnects. About 10 minutes in, Bradley narrates a stormy ocean while the visuals stay on a flat, tranquil cemetery and Harry Potter music plays in the background. That was weird without meaning to be. I also wish these rides could speed up the camera panning along with faster music and higher cadence calls, but that’s not feasible, I realize.
The Halloween Scenic Ride uses straightforward scenic footage rather than the split-screen studio approach of Erik Jäger’s Wanderlust class, for example. It also works better than bare-bones scenic options like the Bachelor Loop ride, which I also took and which lacked narrative guidance and atmospheric music. (It lacked the Halloween badge as well, despite being in this Collection).

The cave footage in the Last Chance Mines was the most unsettling stretch for me (that’s just my own issues about caves, no thank you!), but Bradley sends riders off with a laugh by the end.
What the Halloween Scenic Ride Sounds Like
The playlist is built from movie scores. Max Richter’s “Journey Sequence” opens the class, followed by Howard Shore’s “Strider” and Marco Beltrami’s “Children of the Corn” from the A Quiet Place soundtrack. Later selections include Jóhann Jóhannsson’s “The Beast” from Sicario, Alexandre Desplat’s “Battlefield,” and John Carpenter’s “The Thing.”
Before clipping in, I expected the music to reference the movies within the class, but it works as a backdrop for Bradley’s narration and ride curation. I did not know that Max Richter, a popular choice for Peloton yoga flow and meditation classes, also had music featured in movies.
I am not the biggest Halloween fan in general, so I was glad the Halloween Scenic Ride was not tied to movies I had not seen. I enjoyed the classical soundtrack. Members who want more of this aural pace can try Peloton’s Classical Music rides, several of which are taught by Christine D’Ercole.
How the Halloween Scenic Ride Compares With Past Spooky Classes
In 2025, Peloton offered a variety of spooky classes. The Jason Universe series is the clearest franchise comparison. Peloton partnered with Jason Universe and Horror, Inc., the original owners of the Friday the 13th franchise, and placed instructors at Camp Crystal Lake as camp counselors. The series covered three formats: a Tread Bootcamp with Rebecca Kennedy and a 10 minute meditation with Denis Morton, both released October 28, 2025, and a 30 minute ride with Camila Ramón released October 29, 2025. Those were also “use your imagination” classes.

The Stranger Things rides came next last year. Bradley led one of two Stranger Things rides that arrived in November 2025 for the show’s final season, with Benny Adami leading the other. Our coverage described Bradley’s ride as built on signature tracks and coaching, and Benny’s as the more heavily produced of the two, with custom visuals, audio overlays, and commentary that referenced the show’s storylines and characters. Peloton scheduled both for removal from on demand on February 28, 2026, likely tied to content licensing.

I expected the Halloween Scenic Ride to resemble Benny’s Stranger Things ride, with split screen for the scenic portions and studio effects for the in-person portion. It did not. I did not take Bradley’s Stranger Things ride before it was removed, but I can say both classes lean into each instructor’s strengths. Benny’s last year felt like a themed studio event built on pop-culture tracks. Bradley’s current Halloween Scenic Ride feels closer to an audiobook or ghost story with a full workout underneath.
Halloween falls on Saturday, October 31, which leaves members a few days to fit the Halloween Scenic Ride in alongside the 2026 studio classes. For a seasonal ride with humor, a clear structure, and no distracting costumes, and some creative thought, it should earn a spot in your rotation.
