Hocus Pocus

Had to start off with a classic! This nostalgic flick will get you right in the spirit for Halloween.

Sixth Sense 

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjS0-6NwundAhVq34MKHYITCd0QjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftenor.com%2Fview%2Fhaley-joel-osment-isee-dead-people-sixth-sense-gif-11333995&psig=AOvVaw260q1m7js0G2TIP_N8AWVR&ust=1538630148070507

This is a classic spooky tale. The eirie factor will stay with you even after the credits role.

Nightmare on Elm Street 

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwinye7ixOndAhXj8YMKHcFECPsQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fitunes.apple.com%2Fca%2Fmovie%2Fa-nightmare-on-elm-street%2Fid308625280&psig=AOvVaw3fjBKVSnhwJJhYh6Pi5eCT&ust=15386307968070

If that picture alone isn't enough to give you nightmares, I don't know what is.

Halloweentown

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwi5v5f5xundAhUE6oMKHVmxBV8QjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.popsugar.com%2Fsmart-living%2FVisit-Real-Halloweentown-38349055&psig=AOvVaw0j_LNp_0D_0mO9-VZOM_1n&ust=1538631423430958

My personal favorite, this movie and its sequels were a Disney Channel staple around Halloween.

Scream

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwit-5aQx-ndAhVDxoMKHe_LBWMQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FScream-Face-Mask-with-Shroud-Halloween-Party-One-Size-Movie-Costume-Fancy-Dress-%2F112549628976&psig=AOvVaw2iM-j67Z4dqYyyE-QoF9rQ&ust=1538631492165499

Odds are you'll see this mask out while trick-or-treating, might as well know the story behind it.

Casper the Friendly Ghost

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjmkZKix-ndAhUK7YMKHTYDBToQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pinterest.com%2Fpin%2F420382946437817228%2F&psig=AOvVaw2Zr6IqKy4Nn5LyesBxe56R&ust=1538631530741862

A feel-good story about a friendly ghost- what more can you want from a Halloween film?

Nightmare Before Christmas

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwj9yLazx-ndAhVs_IMKHS_HCbQQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.shopdisney.com%2Fthe-nightmare-before-christmas-lunch-plates-1485433&psig=AOvVaw1ptVJtkUSWKgLJanWILn11&ust=1538631570222033

Highly contested- I know. Is it a Christmas movie or a Halloween movie? Well, I like to say por que no los dos?

It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown 

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwi4nZ_Ix-ndAhVp9YMKHfC4DbYQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=http%3A%2F%2Fgrantland.com%2Fhollywood-prospectus%2Fits-the-great-pumpkin-charlie-brown-running-diary-an-unblinking-journey-of-autumnal-despair%2F&psig=AOvVaw0RlXNo2NzhYGvbbrmIAJGI&ust=1538631612186544

This. Is. A. CLASSIC.

The Conjuring

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjQpKm_xundAhWn8YMKHZ1RAGYQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Fnews%2Fvolokh-conspiracy%2Fwp%2F2015%2F08%2F22%2Fa-warning-about-government-warnings%2F&psig=AOvVaw25XbIKTzuyl7gdWX5af2xr&ust=1538631323827513

My friend literally left the theater in tears. Watch with caution!

Twitches

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjL9Z6rxundAhVqw4MKHVgqAysQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.imdb.com%2Ftitle%2Ftt0467421%2F&psig=AOvVaw2-iFURudjMSRUxWz-qWh65&ust=1538631280909301

If the last item is too much for you, enjoy this film about the importance of sisterly love and (bonus!) magic.

Insidious 

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjNvsqNxundAhWEzIMKHZaNDGUQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rottentomatoes.com%2Fm%2Finsidious%2F&psig=AOvVaw1pYgdAKAtgOWnkGsPECqdm&ust=1538631220960803

A great flick for the spooky time of October, when the spirit world reportedly mixes with ours.

It's all in the name- need I say more?

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
