I feel lucky to have access to a few different streaming services. It means there is always something to watch. With Halloween coming up and the nights getting darker. Movie nights are the perfect go to.

I wanted to share my Top 10 favourite Halloween movies. Some are horror, some are more family friendly and the rest are more murder mystery. I hope that you share yours too 😊

  1. Hocus Pocus (Disney+)
  2. Halloweentown (Disney+)
  3. The Addams Family (Paramount+)
  4. We Have A Ghost (Netflix)
  5. Halloween Kills (Netflix)
  6. Coco (Disney+)
  7. Coraline (ITVX)
  8. The Exorcist (BBC iPlayer)
  9. The Black Cauldron (Disney+)
  10. Clue (Paramount+)
Do any of these movies make your Top Ten?

    I am not a big film watcher, I probably watch one a year, so I can't even name 10 let alone give my favourite 10, but a few films I liked that are maybe suitable for halloween...

    Hostel 1/2/3
    House of 1000 Corpses / 3 From Hell

    I wouldn't watch it again but in a weird way I also liked The Human Centipede 3 because the bad guy was really well played. I always sympathise with the baddies in films and can understand why they do what they do, but this film is a one off in that I found absolutely nothing I liked about the main bad guy, he literally had no redeeming features, which I thought was a credit to the writers and actor.

    @66mustang Ooo I like the Hostel films as well. They may have to make my watch list this month! 

    @Beaver79 Beetlejuice is also a favourite. I was gutted I couldn't find it on any streaming services this year. I suspect one of the TV movie channels may show it this month!

    I really wanted to see A Haunting in Venice but could never get a good time to meet with my friend to see it. Will wait for streaming services now. I read the book Hallowe'en Party, that it was based on.

    @WelshBlue I didn't see your comment yesterday, apologies! I loved the Wednesday series too. I'm excited for the second series. 

    @THE_DUDE Oooo some great choices. The Rocky Horror Picture Show is another favourite. Can't beat Tim Curry <3
