i hope you're starting to feel the magic of the season. If you're having trouble finding the spirit: turn out the lights, fire up some candles (or if you're lucky enough to still have a wood burning fireplace) start a crackling fire and cast yourself into a great movie while you carve pumpkins, roast their fresh seeds and drink spice lattes or cognac.
kid friendly suggestions: Practical Magic, Hocus Pocus, The Haunted Mansion, Beetle Juice, Casper, it's the great pumpkin charlie brown, Frankenweenie, Monster House, The Burbs, The corpse Bride, Nightmare before Christmas & Sleepy Hollow.
non kid friendly suggestion: An American Haunting (possibly one of the more disturbing documented accounts in history), Bram Stoker's Dracula, Death becomes Her, Midnight Bayou <3, The Haunted and Van Helsing.
If you know me, you know that I am a big fat chicken that really doesn't watch slasher horror movies, the kind where humans slaughter each other in sadistic and unmentionable ways.
I do however enjoy the supernatural kind, the kind that haunt you after you turn off the tv, the kind that make you bite the head off anyone asking questions during the movie, the kind that make you stare at the door frame in the dead of night praying that nothing is going to appear or jump out and make you shit the bed.
conclusion: i'm a retard that wants to live in a haunted castle. enjoy any show you want... just enjoy it with some of that addictive Halloween popcorn (recipe above)
