These last couple of days, to get into the festive mood, I’ve been watching my favorite halloween films non stop. Practical Magic is a film I enjoy watching every year, two sisters brought up by their aunts in a beautiful household that was anything but typical. They ate chocolate cake for breakfast and were taught practical magic. A beautiful fantasy that I wanted to step into just to feel the magic. Along with their magic powers came a curse: The men they fell in love with were doomed. The two sisters struggled to fight the curse, it’s a romantic tale, full of great feeling and soft magic.
My second favorite Halloween film is Addams Family, as a young girl I always pretended I was Wednesday. I loved how eccentric the family was and that they were oblivious to how strange they appeared to other people. I continue to watch this film and get a kick out of it still. Halloween wouldn’t be the same without my favorite movies.
What movies are you watching this halloween?
I’ve always loved Practical Magic! I loved watching it as a kid. Hocus Pocus is a must for me, followed by a group of scary movies.
It is my favourite movie! So much fun and inspiration. It’s great to see it on the blog.
I love Hocus Pocus but unfortunately it is not on Netflix right now :(
I just watched this a few days ago; watch this from time to time (especially Halloween time!). Love love love.
The Worst Witch!
Hocus Pocus when I need a good laugh… Halloween (any of them!) when I need a good scare… Teen Witch when I need my occasional 80’s/90’s fix… and Nightmare Before Christmas!! (Which is good pretty much anytime from October 1 – December 31!)
I adore practical magic but that a all year round go to movie. My Halloween must have are vintage horrors like the bride of Frankenstein or Dracula also Beetlejuice and the worst witch.

Aww Practical Magic, haven’t seen that one in years. But I’m gonna now :)
Hocus Pocus FOR SURE!
Hocus Pocus is the best!
Edward Scissorhands for sure!
Nosferatu. The classics! But of course, Halloweentown and Hocus Pocus bring me back to my childhood!
The Frighteners with Michael J. Fox…was just scary enough, but not a slasher or horror flick either.
My favorite is one I don’t hear too many people say- Donnie Darko!
I always have to watch Practical Magic! :) and then I usually try to find a new movie to watch each year with friends. Although no scary movies for me!
oh hocus pocus for sure!!!! i HAVE to watch that every october multiple times!! :)
Rocky Horror Picture Show is definitely my all-time favorite Halloween (and one of my favorite year-round) movies!
beetlejuice forever and ever
Rocky Horror Picture is my favourite movie and it’s all time fav one.
