Five of the Best Halloween Movies

Even if you're not a fan of Halloween, you'd be lying if you said you didn't like any of these movies.

Happy Halloween, everybody! With Halloween here, it's important for the inner child in you to watch some movies that are about this spooky and fun holiday. Even if you're not a fan of horror movies, it's awesome to have Halloween movie marathons because most of the time they are family-friendly and aren't half as scary as most people assume them to be. Here are five of my personal favorite Halloween movies that I'll definitely be watching throughout this week- and hopefully, you'll be able to watch some of them too!

1. The Halloweentown Series

No matter where I am or what time it is, I will watch any Halloweentown movie if it is playing on TV. The Halloweentown series was one that I grew up with and watched as a child. Once October rolled around, I would anxiously wait for Disney Channel to play the different Halloweentown movies and anticipate for the next one to come out. Halloweentown is a classic film that holds a special place in my heart, especially for sentimental purposes.

2. Hocus Pocus

Who could ever forget the famous song "I Put a Spell On You" and Thackery Binx, everyone's favorite black cat?

3. It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

If you're like me and absolutely love Peanuts, then this movie is perfect for you! Anything Peanuts is great, especially a movie that features Snoopy, Linus, Lucy and all of your other favorite characters and is combined with Halloween, which is one of your favorite holidays.

4. Casper Meets Wendy

All I have to say for this one is that Wendy the Good Witch and Casper the Friendly Ghost make a dream team when paired together.

5. The Nightmare Before Christmas

By incorporating Christmas in this Halloween movie, The Nightmare Before Christmas steals my heart every time that I watch it.

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.
