Nervous you’re going to binge Stranger Things on Friday and still have four days left until Halloween? No worries! Here’s the ultimate list of movies to get you in the spooky spirit for Halloween! Everything from not-so-scary to hauntingly scary films across the decades! I’ve starred some of my personal favorites. Plus included where to stream as many of that I could find!

October 27, 2017 at 10:45 amI haven’t seen most of these, but I’ve been getting more into ‘scary’ shows and movies lately so I’ll have to at least check these ‘classics’ off my list first!

October 27, 2017 at 12:04 pmI’m not a scary movie person, but I love all your not-so-scary choices! Clue is one of our favorite movies to put on around Halloween 🙂

October 27, 2017 at 12:41 pmI am a “not so scary” person and appreciate your list. I have not seen Coraline, and it is on my list. Sleepy Hollow and The Nightmare Before Christmas are two of my favorites.

October 27, 2017 at 5:40 pmI watched goosebumps with Jack Black the other day on Netflix and it was awesome! This list is amazing though, I will most likely be referring to it just like you said, after bingeing stranger things lol.

October 28, 2017 at 12:53 pmThis is such a great list, especially for watching with younger kids, since both the adults and kids will enjoy them! My favorites are Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, and Ghost Busters!

October 28, 2017 at 8:55 pmI am not the biggest fan of scary movies, so I’m glad you included non-scary ones too.
Erica @ Coming up Roses
October 29, 2017 at 7:27 amOk I would never watch Paranormal Activity and the fact that you started having things happen has just reaffirmed my stance – too crazy!!!!!
Pam Dollesin

Samantha @ Samantha Rose Says
October 30, 2017 at 6:07 pmOmg some of the scary movies listed give me the chills just thinking about them! The Ring scarred me for life, and I had to stop watching the Paranormal Activity movies after the 3rd one…they got too freaky for me! For some reason, though, I could watch Amytiville Horror over and over again. Must be Ryan Reynolds. Hocus Pocus and The Sixth Sense are my faves! Saving this list, for sure.

October 31, 2017 at 10:48 amYESS!! Amityville and Texas Chainsaw i can watch on a loop! I had to turn paranormal activity off 20 minutes into the first one! All this freaky stuff started happening in our house (dogs freaking out, lights in distant rooms randomly turning on and off, no thank you!)
