My favorite part of Halloween now that I am too old to Trick-or-Treat is watching Halloween movies. Now that it is getting colder out, there is nothing I love more than grabbing a blanket, some cider or hot chocolate, and curling up on the couch to just enjoy a good Halloween movie. I’ve made a list of 16 of my favorite (non-scary) movies I plan to watch before October is over.

1-4. Halloween Town (1, 2, High, and Return)

I watched all of these when I was still in elementary and middle school and if I can catch them on TV, it’s a good day. Old costume makeup and prosthesis, 90’s fashion mixed with witches dresses, these 4 movies are just feel good and non-scary.

5. Hocus Pocus

I can’t remember that last time I had the time to sit down and watch this Halloween staple. It is a halloween favorite and rightfully so, It is well written and highly entertaining.

6. Casper

I had this on VHS growing up and I just Love Casper. Though it has a cast of ghosts and we learn how Casper became our favorite friendly ghost, it is the farthest thing from scary (Hence the moniker of “Casper the Friendly Ghost”). 90’s acting and special effects make this a great movie to laugh at and laugh with.

7-14. Harry Potter series

This series need no introduction or explanation as to why we would watch them here in October. Magic, Muggles, and robes what more could you ask for.

15-16. Scary Godmother Halloween Spooktacular & The Revenge of Jimmy

Animated, Family friendly, and just plain goofy, I look forward to watching these two movies probably above all other Halloween movies. Mean cousins and Fairy Princesses getting the last laugh? Count me in!!!

AI music threatens creativity

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.
