15 Halloween Horror Movies You Need To Be Watching
Scoop Whoop

Every year for Halloween, there are certain scary movies you need to be watching. If you're reading this thinking you're too late because Halloween has passed, you're wrong. You still need to watch these movies. The devil inside you will thank you.

1. Urban Legend

A fairly cheesy slasher, but an easy one to start with.

2. Scream

Not as cheesy or easy to watch, but it does have some humor thrown in to lighten the mood every now and then.

3. Insidious

This one's a doozy, but you can't hide from it forever. Beware: that devil face still gives me nightmares.

4. The Conjuring

Another doozy, but it has a good story to go along with the jump scares.

5. The Orphan

Number one on the list of creepiest children in horror movies.

6. Pet Sematary

Another creepy child, tied with the Orphan, above.

7. The Shining


More of a thriller but still Halloween-worthy for its scare factor.

8. The Ring

The creepiest of the creepy... at least until you watch the next one.

9. The Grudge

Seriously. This one takes preparation.

10. It Follows

Not as scary as the rest, but a modern film that deserves mad props for a creative plot.

11. Psycho

The original slasher movie.

12. Saw

For anyone who wanted more gore.

13. Nightmare on Elm Street

The special effects make it a little less scary, but its still a classic horror.

14. Friday the 13th

At least Halloween can't fall on Friday the 13th.

15. Halloween

Duh.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
