September 2nd is the official of  the beginning of autumn in the 2018 year. With that being said, the most celebrated holiday is coming: Halloween.

As the years go on and people get older, they seem to stay in more handing out candy or even just sitting around with a bowl of candy to eat for themselves as they watch movies. During the fall time a lot of movies start to float around that are scary or relate back to Halloween.

If you’re one to stay in during this time get ready to write down some movies to watch on Halloween night.

Classics 

If you’re into the less technically advanced movies you may love or even fall in love with movies like:

Psycho(1960): starring Anthony Perkins and Janet Leigh

The Shining (1980):  starring Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd “Heeeeere’s Johnny!” 

A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984): starring  Heather Langenkamp, Johnny Depp, Robert Englund

Beatle Juice (1988): starring Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Michael Keaton

The Addams Family (1991): starring  Anjelica Huston, Raul Julia, Christopher Lloyd

These movies are “stereotypical” horror movies that give you a good laugh or even a good scare.
