13 Must Watch Throwback Halloween Movies

It's just a bunch of hocus pocus!

13 Must Watch Throwback Halloween Movies
Walt Disney Pictures

1. Mom's Got a Date with a Vampire

How annoyed were you when watching this? Because I was infuriated. Seriously, come on Hilda Spellman — I mean...mom? The dude is obviously a vampire! Now it's up to Taylor (the boy who strangely reminded me of Macaulay Culkin) and his siblings to save his mom. Nice job, mom.

2. Phantom of the Megaplex

Holy smokes! This movie used to scared to living daylights out of me. But of course, I still watched it. Who in the world is messing with the films? And when you'd see that cape whip by your heart would stop for a minute.

3. Under Wraps

My suggestion is to watch this after watching 'Phantom of the Megaplex'. The humor will help you forget about that scary phantom. Because who doesn't want to watch a movie about a group of kids who accidentally bring a mummy to life on Halloween?

4. Don't Look Under the Bed

This movie terrified me as a child and chances are it still does today. I'm not even kidding you, for a kids movie this was some intense stuff. This movie is the fuel of nightmares.

5. Twitches

This movie brings me so much happiness. Because when you see it on T.V. you KNOW it's Halloween. I wanted a bedroom like Camryn so bad! And that Halloween party she threw looked bomb; well you know, until the darkness crashed it.

6. Tower of Terror

This movie only intensified my fear of the basement for years. I'm telling you, I don't know how this thing was produced by Disney.

7. The Halloweentown Series

Oh yeah! If these don't scream nostalgia then I don't know what does! While my favorite was the first one, I still have to watch all of them because you can't just not watch the whole series. There was something so magical about these movies. My absolute favorite part was when the Piper kids had to go around Halloweentown to collect the ingredients for the potion. * Sigh * So nostalgic.

8. The Little Vampire

I cannot even stress to you how much I loved this movie when I was younger. I mean what's not to love? Jonathan Lipnicki was the cutest little kid ever. Let's just say it was NOT Halloween to me if I didn't see this movie.

9. Casper


Oh, you know the one I'm talking about. Two words: Christina. Ricci. How cool was that scene where Wendy took that little rollercoaster ride down through Casper's 'Up and At 'Em Machine'. And spoiler: Casper turns out to be a total babe (or at least he was back in the day).

10. Casper Meets Wendy

Obviously, you loved this movie because it starred Hilary Duff aka Lizzie McGuire. Who didn't love her? And anyone who says they didn't is lying. Also, the scene where Wendy and Casper get revenge on the little punk kid that's rude to Wendy is awesome. Don't act like you don't agree with me.

11. The Nightmare Before Christmas

First of all, let me just say that this movie is applicable to both Halloween and Christmas. That is one of the coolest things ever.

12. Double, Double Toil and Trouble

Who knew that a Mary-Kate and Ashley movie could be so scary? But I am here to tell you the one does indeed exist. I still have chills when I think about how petrifying that movie was to me.

13. Hocus Pocus

You didn't really think I'd forget about this one, did you? It's only the best Halloween movie to exist. I mean it's Bette Midler as a witch, come on! Not to mention there's a talking cat named Binx! And don't even get me started on Max; he's so dreamy, am I right? Plus, that musical number is the bomb. 'Nuff said.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
