A Definitive Ranking Of The 9 Best Halloween Movies

Happy Halloween! Nothing screams fall more than cozying on the couch with a glass of warm apple cider, endless amounts of candy and watching more Halloween movies than you're proud to admit. So let's set the record straight and establish the best Halloween movies of all time.. or at least in my opinion.

9. The Babysitter

Best described as 'that Netflix movie you watch when there is literally nothing else to watch' - The Babysitter is one that you keep watching, even if you don't want to.

8. Zodiac

Maybe it is the combination of Jake Gyllenhaal and Robert Downey Jr. or the resemblance to Senator Cruz, but Zodiac is another classic for the books.

7. Return to Halloweentown

Almost as notable as it's predecessor, Halloweentown.

6. The Rocky Horror Picture Show

No matter how many times you've seen RHPS, you can always watch it again.

5. Children of the Corn

After watching Children of the Corn, I get a weird chill down my spine but maybe that's what makes me keep rewatching it.

4. Halloweentown

19 years later and the suspense is still palpable.

3. The Addams Family

One word: Underrated

2. Hocus Pocus

Bette Midler AND Sarah Jessica Parker and a quality Disney movie? Doesn't get much better than that.

1. It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

And, my personal favorite, just good 'ole innocent Charlie Brown and his adored pumpkin.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
