22 Halloween Movies That You Should Definitely Watch This Year

Halloween is finally here, and you know what that means: time for scary or fun movies! Whether you're at the movie theater, cuddling up with your friends, or all by yourself, you'll definitely want to check out some of the classics and other Halloween movies.

1. "Halloweentown"

First off, "Halloweentown" (and I really mean all of them) is a classic. I've been watching it since I was a kid, and it wouldn't feel like Halloween without Benny.

2. Anything Tim Burton

"The Nightmare Before Christmas" : a classic Halloween or Christmas Movie

"The Corpse Bride"

"Beetlejuice":

Tim Burton has an act of combining the creepy and the nice. He takes sweet plot lines and combines them with the creepy, scary things. Just enough to be Halloween, but sweet enough to watch before bed.

3. "Hocus Pocus"

This movie is way too classic to not be on this list. It's hilarious, and I had a hard time trying to find the right .gif for this movie, because these witches are hilarious, with the perfect Halloween vibe.

4. "The Addams Family "

Another classic and not-so-scary. This creepy classic is something I've watched almost every year.

5. "Twitches"

Tia and Tamera Mowry get it with this Disney movie. It's kind of childish, but I like it and again, it's something I watch every Halloween.

6. "Casper"


Who can go a Halloween without watching your classic Casper the Friendly Ghost?

7. "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown"



Classic fall movie <3.

8. "Don't Look Under the Bed"

A little more spooky, but still, a nostalgic Halloween movie from Disney.

Now, let's move on to the movies that have scarred me and still continue to freak me out. If you're into that kind of thing, go ahead, but I'm not going into detail about why these movies are classic horror stories.

9. "A Nightmare on Elm Street"


The reason I'm afraid of baths.

10. "Halloween"


Again, scarred me as a child.

11. "Friday the 13th"


Jason Voorhees. Enough said.

12. "Saw"


His face...

13. "Poltergeist"

14. "Child's Play"


15. "The Orphan"


16. "Scream"

The mask, though.

17. "The Cabin in the Woods"


I'm not even sure if this is scary or just freaky. I'm not sure whether to scream or laugh.

18. "The Ring"


The original life-scarrer.

19. "American Horror Story"


Okay, so this technically isn't a movie, but it might as well be. Every episode is just enough to increase your heart rate, and creep you out a bit.

20. "The Babadook"

21. "Gremlins"

22. "Jeepers Creepers"

So go ahead, watch some of the fun Halloween classics with your family and friends, or creep everyone out with one of these horror films. Either way, have a fun and spooky Halloween!

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.

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.
