It's almost October, which means it's almost Halloween, which means you're probably watching Halloween Movies around this time. There are so many classic movies that I personally watch every year like "Double Double, Toil and Trouble" and "Barney: Halloween." Long story short, I've watched that since I was a little girl, and the tradition stuck! For my second post about loving every part of Fall, here are a few movies you should check out this Scary Season!

1. Halloween (1978)

"The Night He Came Home." This movie is such a classic. I can't choose between the cheesy scares, or the "scary" music for my favorite part of this film.

2. It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

This movie always reminds me of family time. I remember watching Charlie Brown specials when I was a little girl and how being together as a family made me so happy. You can never go wrong with Charlie Brown.

3. Double, Double, Toil & Trouble

Bringing back what I said before, this movie is one of my favorites to watch around Halloween. Even as an adult, this movie still gives me the eebie-jeebies! This movie is perfect for date nigh or family night. Especially if you're a 90s baby like me, you will enjoy the old "Mary-Kate and Ashley" part of this movie.

4. The Conjuring (1 or 2)

This movie is by far my favorite modern day horror film. Based on a true story, this film will make you jump out of your skin. The second one is even better. I highly recommend these movies if you enjoy a scare!

5. Scary Movie (1-4)

Whether you like this movie or not, I guarantee you watch it over and over around this time of the year. The stupid humor and raunchy characters give Halloween and horror movies a whole new meaning.

6. House Of Wax

Three words. Chad. Michael. Murray. Contrary to his beautiful character "Lucas" off of "One Tree Hill", Chad has a different persona in this film. He is still attractive, still strong, but much more dark. This movie is pretty sadistic at times, so be sure to watch the trailer before viewing.

7. The Silence of The Lambs

"Hello Clarice." Even if you've never seen this movie, you know that slogan. This movie sends chills up and down your spine, making you experience fear like never before.

8. Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Although both old and new versions of this movie are phenomenal, I feel that the old one is the superior of the two. There is just something about the story-line that brings this movie to life.

9. Pet Sematary


There are so many more movies that are worthy of watching this season. If you would like a link to the Top 100 Best Horror Movies, click here! If you're satisfied with the list I have given you, I hope you got some thrill and adrenaline pumping through your veins. Happy Scary Movie season!!

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
