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.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
