Halloween Movies

Hello! Happy Post-Halloween!I hope you had a frightfully fun Halloween!

Along with dressing up and going to a parade on my block, I spent the 13 days prior watching some of my favorite Halloween movies on ABC Family’s “13 Nights of Halloween. I wanted to share some of my  top 10 favorite movies with you!

Here they are (in no particular order):

1) The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) - The movie is about the how the holidays        were created and where they come from. This includes Christmas Town, Halloween Town, Easter Town, etc. Halloween is over, and the citizens of Halloween Town are celebrating another successful holiday. The king of this town, Jack Skellington, is being praised for another fine year, but then slips away, and it is revealed that Jack is bored of the same old holiday; it’s just become to easy. He’s anxious to find something new and exciting to do. While exploring, he comes across Christmas Town, and decides this year, he’s going to run Christmas, and he’s going to do it his way.

2) ParaNorman (2012) – Norman is a misunderstood boy who can see ghosts. When he learns of a curse that was put on his town centuries ago, he also learns that he the only one who can break the curse.

 

3) Hocus Pocus (1993) – After three centuries, three witch sisters come back from the dead, out for revenge and to suck the life out of all the children, and the only people who can stop them are two teenagers and a little girl.

4) Corpse Bride (2005) – When a self-conscious groom wanders into the forest practicing his vows, he accidentally proposes to a dead woman, who then rises from the grave assuming that they are really married.

5) Coraline (2009) – A young, sarcastic girl discovers another world where she finds things exactly the way she wants them. With perfect parents who would do everything and anything for her, and an amazing room, what could go wrong?

6) The Twilight Zone (1959-1964) (I know it’s a television show; leave me alone) – Regular people find themselves in supernatural situations and occurrences.

7) The Addams Family (1991) – An eccentric family is fooled by con artists who try to get the family’s money by portraying their long lost uncle.

9) Edward Scissorhands (1990) – A young man with a gentle heart and scissors for hands enters society and tries to cope with the rules of life

And last, but not least…

10) Mickey’s House of Villains (2001) – This is a childhood favorite of mine. In the House of Mouse, they play old Mickey Mouse shorts from the 1930’ s-2000, and ends with a trick from the Disney villains.

I have A LOT more favorite Halloween movies, but these were just some of my favorites. Obviously, I’m not into the horror genre, but you can still enjoy Halloween!
