Five on Friday: Movies to Watch This October


I freaking love fall. I love the cooler weather. I love the sweaters, boots, and scarves. I love watching the leaves change colors. I love football and I love pumpkin spice everything. Last but not least, I love watching horror movies during the month of October as the days lead up to Halloween. Okay, I think I have declared my love for fall enough for one day. Today I am sharing with you some of my favorite movies to watch during the month of October.


Hocus Pocus
This is a must watch for me every year, and I am sure I am not alone. Some of my favorite movie lines come from Hocus Pocus. "Oh look, another glorious morning. Makes me sick!" I also love how many inappropriate jokes there are that I didn't realize until I was older.


The Cabin in the Woods
This clever and surprisingly fun (you can't normally say that about horror movies) take on the horror movie genre is a delight. There are a lot of shocking moments, and it certainly doesn't hurt that Chris Hemsworth is in the movie.


The Birds
I'm still not quite sure why I watch this movie every year since I actually am not a big fan of birds, but I do it anyway. Every time I see a whole bunch of black birds in one spot I get the chills. I have been watching this one since I was very young, and perhaps that is the reason why I am not a big fan of birds...


Practical Magic
I can never get enough movies about witches, especially badass ones. This movie has a fantastic cast with Nicole Kidman, Sandra Bullock, Stockard Channing, and Dianne Wiest. If you are fan of this movie too then I suggest you read the recent anthology titled Toil & Trouble: 15 Tales of Women & Witchcraft.


A Quiet Place
This is obviously a new one that I have now added onto my rotation! Watching this movie in theaters was a unique experience. The theater had never been more quiet as everyone carefully ate their snacks, or avoided them all together.

TTT #69: Halloween Themed TV Episodes


I have done creepy book covers and scary movies, but I have yet to share some of my favorite Halloween themed TV episodes with you, until now. Here are my top ten eight favorite Halloween TV episodes.

8. How I Met Your Mother: Slutty Pumpkin
I thought Barnie stole the show in this episode.


7. Castle: Vampire Weekend
Castle plays his character from his other show Firefly. hehehe

6. Parks & Recreation: Halloween Surprise
Leslie dresses up as  Rosie the Riveter. A serious and funny episode.

5. Vampire Diaries: Haunted
This episode in season one is when I really started getting into the show.

4. Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Fear Itself
A haunted house at its finest.

3. Brooklyn Nine-Nine: Halloween 
The challenge between Jake and Holt is amazing.

2. Modern Family: Halloween
I love every Modern Family episode, but the Halloween ones are some of my favorites.

1. Friends: The One With the Halloween Party
I had to include a Friends episode.


Have you seen any of these? Do you have a favorite Halloween episode?!

13 Movies (all categories) to Watch This Halloween

I love Fall and every single thing about it, including Halloween. Therefore, I decided to brew up some fun Halloween inspired posts for you all this year. This will probably be one of several.

Every year during the month of October I force my husband or friends or whoever is around me to watch Halloween inspired movies, and I decided to share my obsession with you. Below you will find some of my favorites! I tried to share some movies that probably aren't your usual Halloween movie choice to spice things up a bit. Please tell me which movies you watch in honor of Halloween in the comments below. :)
