Top Ten Movies to Watch For Halloween

Hosted by The Broke and the Bookish


BEETLEJUICE: I vaguely remember this one being fun / eerie. Definitely need to rewatch it!

CASPER: I love Casper, he's just adorable. It's been years since I've seen this.

HALLOWEENTOWN: Loved this as a kid! So fun and creative.

MEAN GIRLS: OKAY, it's not really a Halloween movie, but there is a scene set during Halloween so it counts. Plus, this movie is never stops being amusing, and sometimes, you just need a fun movie in between the scary ones.


SLEEPY HOLLOW: Eerie, people's heads get chopped off, magic, Johnny Depp...it's perfect for Halloween.

SCREAM: I mean, obviously.

URBAN LEGEND: So, this is not a great movie, but I thought it was an interesting horror movie revolving around urban legends.

THE CONJURING: Very eerie and well done. The clapping game always gives me chills.

HALLOWEEN (Rob Zombie version): Creepy. Creepy. Creepy. That is all.


BONUS! PRACTICAL MAGIC: Thanks to Juju's recommendation, I decided to check out Practical Magic and it is wonderful. Witches, romance, family, and more! Absolutely perfect for Halloween.

  1. I love this list! I completely agree with you about Hocus Pocus (the best!), Casper and Beetlejuice. I feel like those are classics now. :) The Conjuring sounds way too scary for me..haha. I do like Scream and Mean Girls is just an awesome movie all-around. Happy Halloween!

  2. My sister and I loved Scream and Urban Legend when we were teens. I wouldn't be able to watch that kind of movie now! I liked Hocus Pocus and Casper too. I was thinking of watching Hocus Pocus again just the other day so I might do that on Halloween. It's been years! Nice list!

  5. I'm surprised that I haven't seen The Craft on any blogs yet!

    And I know what you mean about Mean Girls, I love the Halloween scene! "What are you supposed to be?" "A mouse, duh!"

  6. Practical Magic is a great Halloween movie! The book is also really good, though a bit darker in tone.

  9. For the past two years I have not been able to watch the Halloweentown movies because its become a tradition. Near Halloween itself, I watch Hocus Pocus.

  10. I love Practical Magic, Casper, Hocus Pocus and Halloweentown (I pretend that the third movie doesn't exist lol). I haven't seen any of the others...and I'm too much of a wimp to see The Conjuring--just the previews of that clapping game had me on edge!!!

  12. I've never watched Mean Girls but I've heard so much about it I think it has to go on my list. I love Hocus Pocus (I watch it every year) and my husband is a huge fan of Practical Magic.
