While not everyone is a fan of the “Don’t go in there!”, we all love to curl up with some hot cocoa and a spooky special. As the 31st is nearing, here are 7 movies that give the thrill without the chill.
The "Harry Potter" Series.

A must-have Disney classic (featuring a pre “Sex and the City” SJP!), along with the sequel released last year.
"The Nightmare Before Christmas".

Tim Burton hits the mark with the story of Jack Skellington bringing some holiday cheer to his otherwise frightful town.

Puppies in Halloween costumes! Need I say more?
"Halloweentown".
Another Disney tradition. Who doesn’t want to visit this October-themed world?
"Twilight".

For a little teenage-hood nostalgia, look no further than the vampire romance movies inspired by the novels that dominated the early 2000’s.
And finally...
"Coraline".

A little on the scarier side, given the eerie tale it’s based on. But our favorite spunky blue-haired girl, her black cat comrade, and their rescue of the ghost children make this film a seasonal gem.
