With Halloween being on a Tuesday this year, if you have any classes before like 11 on Wednesday, your options of what you can do are pretty limited. That's where I'm at too. Sure, I plan on going to Rocky Horror, but that's at like midnight and I need something to do before and while I wait for Trick-or-Treaters. Halloween movies here I come. Some of these are on Netflix, some I personally own.

1. Hocus Pocus

A staple of Halloween if you grew up on DCOMs. Also bonus: the man who played Billy is a BSU Alum!

2. The Nightmare Before Christmas

The obvious cult favorite. To this day, the Boogies are some of my favorite villains.

3. Edward Scissorhands

Let's just go ahead and have it established that this list will have the best-of-the-best Tim Burton movies. Also, like Winona Ryder AND Johnny Depp? You can't blame me.

4. The Ouija Movies

Ouija and Ouija: Origin of Evil

5. Coraline

6. The Chucky Movies

7. The Scary Movies

8. It Follows

This movie is actually about a killer STD... pardon my pun, if you've seen the movie. It's really good and I think it's super underrated!

9. Nightmare on Elm Street

10. Halloween

One Halloween, my best friend and I were watching this and a guy dressed as Michael Meyers walked down past the window *shudder*

11. The Addams Family

And Addams Family Values, obviously.

12. Lizzie Borden Took An Axe

Because I love me some Christina Ricci.

13. Corpse Bride

14. Sleepy Hollow

All of the Johnny Depp! Yes please!

15. The Babadook

Since his boyfriend, Pennywise, has his remake out, it only makes sense.

16. Hush

If you haven't watched this on Netflix yet, you need to! I've never seen another movie like it!

17. Children of the Corn

18. The VHS Movies

They're a little strange, but definitely good horror movies.

19. Death Note

If you're a fan of the anime, just try to think of it as a separate entity with the Death Note concept because then it's a great movie! As a live-action Death Note, though, it's shit.

20. The Saw Movies

21. Teeth

Males, you may want to avert your eyes for this one.

22. Hellraiser

23. The Blair Witch Project

24. The Paranormal Activity Movies

I saw the first one in theaters in like middle school and was so spooked. I have since made sure I've seen them all for continuity purposes and the last one is a little trippy. They may be kind of a joke but I highly recommend them.

25. The Ward

To this day, this is one of my favorite horror movies because you never see the ending coming.

26. The Rite

If you're a Once Upon a Time fan, you'll recognize the priest-in-training.

And last, but certainly not least:

27. Halloweentown

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
