What are the top 5 Halloween movies for Adults?

1. The Craft (1996)

Witchcraft, girl powers, weird spells, this has all the making of a Halloween classic. Best not watched alone, dive into the world of three friends navigating high school with a fondness for the extraordinary…

2. Hocus Pocus (1993)

You thought this would be on the Kid’s list? Not a chance (they can’t have all the fun). Join three 300-year-old witches tracking down their old spell book and prepare to laugh and scream. With a stellar cast of Sarah Jessica Parker, Bette Middler and Najimy, this one will give you all the Halloween feels.

3. BeetleJuice (1988)

It’s another oldie but goodie! Beetlejuice delivers an effortless blend of comedy and horror following a couple trying to get rid of a mischievous spirit (best avoided if you have just moved into a new house)

4. Scream, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7

Just because. It’s like selection boxes at Christmas, Halloween doesn’t seem right without it. Join the familiar cast for the deadly games that have made this movie franchise a cult classic.

5. The Blair Witch Project (1999)

Ok, it’s the Kid’s turn for a screen based ghost ride.

What are the best Halloween movies for Kids?

1. The nightmare before Christmas (1993)

Let’s kick things off with pumpkins, mischief and skeletons at the best time of year. Naughty Jack Skellington plots to kidnap Santa Claus. Will he be able to mess up Christmas? You will have to watch the movie to find out.

2. Casper (1995)
