October is my favorite month of the year. Not only is my birthday in October but so is Halloween. I like the decorations, the movies, Halloween inspired snacks, and the costumes. Since I really like watching paranormal movies I decided to list some of my favorite movies and shows to watch before or on Halloween.
- Harry Potter: I love watching all the Harry Potter movies year-round. There’s magic, wizards and witches. What more could you possibly need?
- Hocus Pocus: Hocus Pocus is a classic Halloween movie. I think it’s a really great one to watch with your younger siblings or your kids. It’s also great if you don’t like watching super scary movies.
- Casper: Casper was one of my favorite movies to watch as a child. I absolutely love this movie. I wouldn’t consider this one a scary movie at all.
- Stephen King Movies: I like watching scary movies (sometimes) even though they prevent me from sleeping for days. I especially like Stephen King movies; some of my favorites to watch are Rose Red and Carrie.
- Buffy the Vampire Slayer: If you like vampires then this is the show for you!
- Twilight: All of the Twilight Saga movies are great for all the vampire lovers out there.
- X-Files: X-Files is full of all things paranormal and aliens. Perfect for Halloween.
- Stranger Things: Stranger Things is great if you like anything paranormal. I really enjoyed watching this show. I didn’t find Stranger Things scary, but I do think it’s a captivating show.
- E.T. the Extra -Terrestrial: This was another childhood favorite of mine. If you like aliens this one is a great one to watch.
- The Addams Family: The Addams Family is another one that I think will be perfect for those that don’t like to watch anything scary.
These are all some of my favorite movies and shows to watch right before Halloween. Let me know what movies and shows you like to watch in the comments below.
