1. Hocus Pocus (1993)
Hocus Pocus may not be the scariest film to watch, but it is the most-watched Halloween movie of all time, according to Vudu. Also, it is perfect for faint-hearted viewers, who look for an Allhallows Eve movie, minus the scary factor. The movie has amazing costumes, an entertaining storyline, great actors, and brilliant performances.
Hocus Pocus tells the infamous Salem witch story of the Sanderson sister, who were executed for practicing witchcraft. However, when Max, a new kid, moves into the town, he accidentally brings them back to life. Now, these witches need to devise a planquickly so that they can continue to exist forever.

2. Scream (1996)
Our list would be incomplete without this classic. Scream is a scary/slasher movie that not only gives you reasons to lock your doors but also scenes with its black comedy that might have you in laughing fits. With a stellar cast and amazing cinematography, Scream continues to be a fanfavorite even after twenty-six years.
It has been a year since Sidney’s mother died, but now she and her friends have started getting weird calls from a strange man. They find out that the caller is a maniac serial killer, who is out for revenge. The killer’s MO is to use horror films as a part of his disturbing game.
Famous Quote:“You should never say ‘who’s there?’ Don’t you watch scary movies? It’s a death wish. You might as well come out here to investigate a strange noise or something.”
3. Halloweentown (1998)
Halloweentown is a Disney Original movie, however, it is truly a top-quality film due to several reasons. It is light-hearted, nostalgic, and fun to watch when you are looking for a classic Halloween film. Halloweentown is particularly for the younger audience. But you don’t need an excuse to stream this movie as an adult.
The film follows a young girl – Marnie. She lives with her secret witch mother and on her 13th birthday, Marnie learns that she too is a witch. Now, she has to help her witch grandma save Halloweentown as it is revealed that evil forces are threatening to take over the town.

4. Trick ‘r Treat (2007)
Have you ever wondered what would happen if you don’t follow the rules of Halloween? Well, take pointers from the residents of a fictional town of Warren Valley, Ohio, who learn it the hard way. Trick ‘r Treat is equal amounts of gore display and comedy. Don’t get us wrong, the movie brilliantly manages to freak you out, albeit with the hilarious scenes.
This movie has five intricate stories taking place in the same town, on the same night. In one way or another, each character seems to make an appearance in the story of another character. Trick ‘r Treat forces you to partakein the tradition of Halloween seriously or else, face the music.
