If you, the reader, are anything like me, you will probably not be going out this Halloween. So I've compiled a list of some movies you can curl up in the dark with a humongous blanket, a bowl of Halloween candy, and a hot chocolate. Rest your minds, because I've got the list for you to bring on the scariest night of the year.


1. Hocus Pocus

I place Hocus Pocus as the top choice because it's not only a classic, but it's the only original Disney channel movie that deserves any recognition for originality and premise on a major historical event.

2. Dracula

Not just the older, 20th century version, but watching up to the oldest version really shows how the elements of the story come together; and an original scare is the best scare.

3. Saw

It's a creepy movie that makes the night more fun to enjoy.

4. Nightmare on Elm Street

This movie is another classic that never gets old, and it shall never be ruined, no matter how many remakes it produces.

5. Friday the 13th

This movie is no longer just for the day where bad luck occurs. This movie brings thrills and chills.

6. Halloween

Why not have Halloween with Halloween? Michael Myers is the killer to watch on Halloween night, especially when there's no one else around.

7. Jeepers Creepers

Following another great monster, this scarecrow is the demon you have got to watch. It will be the nightmare you won't ever want to live.

8. Harry Potter

Let's not forget our Harry. He is the greatest wizard of all, anyhow.

9. Insidious

Let's face it, the world has been starved of originality until James Wan came along with his own creative styles.

10. American Horror Story

It's not a movie, but it's a show that is worth watching at anytime during the year. What time is better than now to watch this?


Get your ghoul on, and let's scare the living soul out of ourselves tonight

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
