Looking for the best list of Halloween movies to watch this October? I’m sharing everything from classic scary movies, to family friendly cartoons, to the latest new horror movies, to the best kids halloween movies on Disney+.
You will love these thrillers, slashers, comedies, and animation Halloween films which you can stream on Prime Video, Netflix, Disney, or Hulu!
I do want to note, the no-so-scary halloween movie list does not mean they are all are for kids! While this is a list of the top 100 halloween movies for the family, it's also for friends and everyone! While some of the Halloween movies for kids are suitable for young children, others aren't. The not-so-scary Halloween movie list is exactly that: not-so-scary.
I can't believe I have to say this, but based on some of the messages I received: please use your best judgment, watch trailers, and make a choice appropriate to you or your child's level of scare! If you are looking for Halloween stuff for toddlers, check out this post on 100 Halloween Books For Kids [For Babies, Young and Older Children!] or Fun + Easy Halloween Activities For Toddlers!

I 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!
yassss to Halloweentown! Need to watch all of those this weekend!
Legit those movies were the bestttt! I actually prefer them over Hocus Pocus!
I’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 🙂
Charlie Brown, Practical Magic, and Clue are my Hallowe’en faves. All about Stranger Things 2 this weekend, though.
I 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.
Omg I love so many of these! My favorite Halloween movies are Halloweentown and Hocus Pocus!
This is a great list. I forgot about Gremlins!
I’ve never really been into Halloween but I absolutely loved the Halloweentown movies!! They were all sooo good!
Tori
Okay I need to watch all of these like now!!! I love Halloween town the best lol so old!!!
I 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.
I’ve seen so many of these! Can’t wait to watch them again and good snacks!
I LOVEEEEE The Great Pumpkin and I love Hotel Transylvania! So good! I cannot handle scary stuff though! haha.
WHat a good list!! Me and Edward Scissorhands need a date this weekend I think!
I watched ‘The Nightmare on Elm Street’ on Halloween when I was at a slumber party and it was my first scary-scary movie and I totally couldn’t sleep all night haha
This 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!
Love this list! I’m usually not a big Halloween movie person but I love that you included a lot of other stuff in here as well. 🙂
Halloweentown is my favourite – so glad it made your list. Great post!
This is an amazing list! I’m always looking for new scary movies to add to my rotation each October.
Hotel Transylvania was super cute!! So funny!! This is a great list!
I am not the biggest fan of scary movies, so I’m glad you included non-scary ones too.
