We love Halloween — the candy, the costumes, the haunted houses and of course all the holiday-themed movies that make the season so spooktacular. Whether you're a fan of real-deal scary stuff like Stephen King's "It" or the more family- friendly classics like "Hocus Pocus" now's the time of year to watch and re-watch scary and silly favorites old and new.

Hocus Pocus
It's not Halloween without an annual watching of "Hocus Pocus!" Those bewitching Sanderson sisters have us under their spell year after year after year.
Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas
Jack Skellington, the King of Halloween Town, finds Christmas Town — and the result is pretty spectacular. We like to watch this animated classic in October, November and December.
Ghostbusters
Who you gonna call? "Ghostbusters" — the 2016 variety. Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones bring the LOLs in the long-awaited remake from director Paul Feig.
Friday the 13th
Before the advent of CGI and advanced special effects, scary movies relied on screams and suspense to sufficiently terrify the audience. Case in point? "Friday the 13th." It was released in 1980, but it's definitely as scary as anything you'll see today.
Pride And Prejudice And Zombies
It's the Jane Austen twist you never knew you needed: Elizabeth Bennet is a martial arts master, and Mr. Darcy is a fierce zombie killer. It'll bewitch you — body and soul (or no soul, in the case of the undead).
Stephen King, IT!
The recent remake gave us chills, but the original 1990 film is still the scariest. Fair warning, though: This is definitely not a movie suitable for kids — or anyone with a real fear of clowns, for that matter.
