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.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
