Stop Everything And Watch These 20 Halloween Movies
Sanderson Sisters

With Halloween right around the corner, it's time to break out the decorations and get spooky! All the candy, costumes and creepiness is so much fun! But besides all of the fun Halloween activities, one of my favorite parts of Halloween is watching movies. I've never been a scary-movie type of person, because I've always hated the pop-ups, blood, guts, and gore type of stuff.

However, I put together a small list of movies that have always been my favorite to watch near Halloween. Check them out!

1. "Corpse Bride"

A shy groom accidentally says the right vows to the wrong woman, who happens to be dead.

2. "Coraline"

Coraline's new house is really boring until she discovers a tiny door that leads her to another world where there are "better" versions of her parents. But she soon learns that her "other" parents may in fact be evil.


3."Halloweentown"

Marnie is a witch...everyone knows this one.


4. "Beetlejuice"

A couple of recently deceased ghosts contact the wrong...or is it the right, guy to help them get rid of the new owners of their house.

5. "The Nightmare Before Christmas"

Jack Skellington, king of Halloweetown, discovers Christmastown but doesn't understand the concept.



6. "It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown"

It's Charlie Brown's Halloween!

7. The Conjuring:

Creepy things happen in a creepy house...

8. "The Addams Family"

They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky



9. "Hocus Pocus"

Who doesn't know the Sanderson sisters?


10. "Halloween"

On Halloween night in 1963, six-year-old Michale Myers stabs and kills his sister. After fifteen years in a mental hospital, he escapes and starts stalking people.


11. "Carrie"

The 2013 version is the third adaptation of this film, based off Stephen King's 1974 novel.



12. "The Birds"

Birds start attacking people of a small town.



13. "The Lost Boys"

When a family moves into a new town, the brothers discover that it's a haven for vampires.



14. "The Haunted Mansion"

A realtor and his wife and children are summoned to a mansion which they soon discover is haunted.

15. "Psycho"

A secretary embezzles $40,000 from her employer, goes on the run, and ends up staying at the Bates Motel.


17. "The Rocky Horror Picture Show"

Let's do the time warp again!

18. Edward Scissorhands:

His name is self-explanatory.

19. "Dark Shadows"

A vampire returns to his family mansion. Based on the gothic television soap opera of the same name.



20. "The Babadook"

A widow discovers that her son was telling the truth about a monster that entered their home through the pages of a child's book.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
