My Must-Watch List For October

October 15, 2026 — Leave a comment

As I have stated numerous times, spooky season is my favorite time of the year. However, I don’t limit my spooky vibes to October – I watch horror movies and read scary books and indulge in chills and thrills 24/7/365.

With that said, there are certain movies that I watch every year around Halloween, typically with my mom. I’d be interested to see your list as well, so if you’re reading this, drop a couple of movies that you feel get you into the spirit!

  • Scream [1996]: Iconic. My favorite slasher flick, period.
  • Coraline: One of my favorite movies, ever. And don’t tell me it’s not horror…
  • Trick ‘r Treat: Love, love, LOVE! And Sam is so cute.
  • Halloween [1978]: No time for remakes in this house. A classic. I’ve loved this movie from a young age, thanks to Mom.
  • Halloween II [1981]: This has to be one of the most solid sequels of all-time.
  • Fright Night [1985]: Because Chris Sarandon makes a sexy vampire.
  • The Nightmare Before Christmas: I feel like this one’s self-explanatory.
  • Corpse Bride: I do adore this film, but we mostly watch it because of Mom.
  • Hocus Pocus: It’s not Halloween until Winifred Sanderson says “Oh look, another glorious morning. Makes me SICK!”
  • Urban Legend: This movie was so slept on. While I will forever be a Ghostface girly, I actually thought the plot and the murder methods were better in this one.
  • Cry Wolf: Another underrated gem. I will never skip it.
  • House of 1000 Corpses: The only Rob Zombie film I actually enjoy.

I could have included Terrifier and the original IT, but I don’t always seek them out. I do watch them every time they’re on or suggested by someone else, though.
