The Best Tim Burton Movies To Watch On Halloween

Or year round. No judgement here. Mainly because I'm doing the same thing.

The Best Tim Burton Movies To Watch On Halloween

Just in case you haven't caught on from my previous articles, I absolutely LOVE Halloween and Tim Burton. All of my favorite movies are his movies. So, with it being Halloween, I figured I'd write an article on "creepy" Tim Burton movies to watch to get us all in that spooky, gothic, Halloween kind of mood.

The Nightmare Before Christmas

Favorite. Movie. Ever. And yes, it's a Halloween movie before you start to question it. It's a year round movie if you want it to be, and for me, it's definitely a year round movie.

Corpse Bride

"With this hand, I will lift you sorrows. Your cup will never be empty, for I will be your wine. With this candle, I will light your way in darkness. With this ring, I ask you to be mine." Dear future husband, you better learn those vows.

Frankenweenie

I seriously think that this is the same dog in this movie, Corpse Bride, and The Nightmare Before Christmas. If it is, well played, Tim Burton. If not, don't tell me because I want to think that it is.

Edward Scissorhands

If there's anyone I love just as much as Tim Burton, it's Johnny Depp. By far. He is my favorite actor there is and I don't think Tim Burton could have chosen a better actor to portray these characters.

Sleepy Hollow

The one with Johnny Depp in it, obviously.

Sweeney Todd

I love love love this movie thanks to one of my friends from back home who constantly talked about it until I finally gave in and watched it. And I'm so glad I did.

From creepy Halloween kid movies, to the overload of Johnny Depp that we're all oh so thankful for, I think it's safe to say that Tim Burton knows what he's doing when it comes to making movies.

But seriously, this is how I picture a conversation between Tim Burton and Johnny Depp:

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.
