Oh, the Horrors: Watchlist

Happy Spooky Season to all who celebrate! For some, it’s a month, a precursor to Christmas, but to others (raises hand) it’s a year-long holiday. Lifestyle, even. 

Either way, movies can be a fun way to celebrate the Halloween season (sans costumes or sugar-guilt) from the comfort of your own home. Bless. And I have been celebrating a lot this month. I will say that I’m not a huge fan of gore – I can’t even watch Botched without turning away – but spooky movies are so much more than that; suspense, thrill, fantasy, fun, even (promise).

Anywho, like I was saying, I’ve been celebrating a lot this season and, to my surprise, keeping track (for the most part) of movies I’ve liked along the way. Unfortunately for you, this list is not defined by any relative order or category other than I Enjoyed Watching This Movie. I’ll update this list as the month continues…

You can also catch movies all month on AMC’s Fearfest, Freeform’s 31 Days of Halloween, Syfy’s Halloween, and many other TV channels.

Keep in mind that availability can change frequently, so it’s a good idea to double-check on your preferred streaming service.
