Everyone has their own holiday traditions that they have had since childhood. Our generation is big into movies, specifically Disney movies, even more specifically Halloween Disney movies. These 11 films will transport you back in time to when your only worries were what your Halloween costume would be or which candy you wanted to eat first after Trick-Or-Treating.
1. Halloweentown Movies
No matter which you prefer (personally, I think Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge is the superior), Halloweentown comes to all of our minds when we think of Halloween. I only wish that all kids can experience these movies the way our generation has. Also RIP Debbie Reynolds/Grandma Aggie :(
2. Hocus Pocus
This is one of my favorite movies ever. I got it on VHS one year for Christmas and watched it ALL the time. It's an absolute classic with witches, hidden adult humor and just the right amount of scare.
3. Casper Meets Wendy
A friendship forms between a ghost and a young witch (baby Hilary Duff!) who are pressured by their families to be evil, but want to use their powers for good.
4. The Little Vampire
Another super cute movie with adorable children. This kid is just REALLY into vampires, he ends up befriending some, and finds out they aren't too different from himself (other than the blood and sunlight and all that).
5. Coraline
Okay, this movie is actually super creepy, it's probably the scariest one on this list. A girl enters an alternate universe where everything seems great, then finds out it's all fake and her "fake mom" wants to keep her there forever, with no hope of escaping back to reality. Also, everyone has buttons for eyes, scary af.
6. Phantom Of The Megaplex
A classic Disney Channel Original Movie, this spooky film will make your nostalgia so real.
7. Monster House
Equally parts scary, funny and heartfelt, this movie is a childhood Halloween classic.
8. The Haunted Mansion
Not gonna lie, this movie scared the crap out of me when I was younger. Eddie Murphy movies are always a must, and this is a film (as well as a ride at both Disney World and Disneyland) the whole family can enjoy.
9. Twitches
Imagine meeting your long lost twin AND finding out you both have magical powers. throw in Tia and Tamara Mowry, and you've got the perfect formula for a Disney Channel classic.
10. Tower Of Terror
Inspired by the AMAZING Disney World ride, this movie is extremely underrated.
11. It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
My mom is huge Peanuts fan, so during each holiday growing up, we watched the Charlie Brown Specials. Nothing brings you back to your childhood like Lucy, Linus and Snoopy.
