31 Halloween Movies that the Whole Family Will Enjoy
Are you looking for a good Halloween movie to watch with your family this October? It can be hard to find a Halloween movie that the whole family will enjoy. It’s either too scary for the youngest, too babyish for the big kids, or you’ve seen it a 1000 times!
Well, gather the family, pop the corn, and cozy up because I’m about to present 31 of the best Halloween movies!
In October, we celebrate the season with a weekly Halloween Movie Night. We pop the popcorn, bake refrigerated sugar cookies, or snack on candy and cozy around the tv. Sometimes, we just watch episodes or shorts and get on with our night. My kids range in age 4-11 so I’ve learned to pick something that (most of the time) everyone will enjoy. Here are our favorite Halloween movies:
