1. Practical Magic (I love, love, love this film! One of my best friends texted me that she was watching it this morning.)
2. The Craft (Who doesn't love a group of badass chicks?)
3. Hocus Pocus (I always wanted to be Winifred. @chichiphin It looks like we just need a Mary to round us out! )
@chichiphin It appears that we have very similar tastes in movies. I love Beetlejuice, too! And bonus points for your husband looking like Alec Baldwin.

I'm with @littleredm and I also have never seen Hocus Pocus...
My mom wouldn't let me watch anything Halloween related when I was younger so pretty much the only movie I see in this post that I've watched is Monsters Inc! Which I loved!
To join in with @littleredm and @brookert615 I haven't really watch any of these Halloween movies with the exception of Nightmare before Christmas. We can be lame together haha.
I need to learn how to post gifs on here! I do it all the time via text. Mostly to annoy DH. 1. Hocus Pocus (duh) 2. Great Pumpkin 3. Garfield's Halloween (although it scared the bejeezus out of me as a kid!)
Its funny. Harry Potter can be either Halloween or Christmas to me. Halloween seems obvious, but I think it is because they spend a lot of time developing the winter season in each movie, so it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy and christmasy
@chichiphin I kinda considered HP & the Sorcerer's Stone to be Christmasy too. Maybe just because there's a specific Christmas scene in that one? And because we always do a HP marathon over xmas break when my Aunt is in town.

@riff323 I thought the same thing! Good for you, girl! I wish that I loved scary movies, but I’m such a wimp. As a group, we seem to like very tame Halloween movies. 😂

Man I love horror movies (pretty much obsessed), which surprises people because I guess I'm too nice and smiley *shrug*
Just off the top of my head for favorite "Halloween" movies, which makes me think of my childhood, I would go: 1. Hocus Pocus 2. Halloween Town 3. Double, Double Toil and Trouble (yes the one with the Olsen twins)
Re: GTKY (Witchy) Wednesday 10/31
2. Bettlejuice - bonus: MH (in his glasses) kind of looks like Alec Baldwin in this movie so I'm in to that.
3. Practical Magic - what's not to love about this cast & story line???

2. Nightmare Before Christmas. Although though I kinda consider this more of a Christmas movie.
3. Monster’s Inc. Because Boo’s basically in a costume 80% of the movie. And her name is Boo. And I love it sooooooo!
@riff323 lost boys is a good one!
Edit forgot tag

Diagnosed with PCOS & Hashimoto's
1. Hocus Pocus (duh)
2. Great Pumpkin
3. Garfield's Halloween (although it scared the bejeezus out of me as a kid!)
I've never really liked scary movies so none of mine are very scary, lol.
Casper (because Devon Sawa)
The Addams Family
Ghostbusters (the original)
Does Matilda count? If HP is considered Halloween then that definitely takes top spot too.
