With Halloween approaching, I wanted to share the top 10 horror movies I have on my list to watch before October 31st! Horror is my favorite movie genre, so I would personally consider this to be a top-tier list. I’ve created the list with the idea that you start at #10 10 days before Halloween and finish strong with #1 on the day of!
10. Halloween (1978)
I wanted to start the list of strong with a classic. Coming from experience, this movie gets everyone in the Halloween mood and it’ll always be one of my favorites.
9. The Exorcist
Another classic! I feel like everyone needs to see this movie at least once in their life.
8. Carrie (1976 or 2013)
For Carrie, I’m letting this one be interchangeable. I’ve already given you two classics, so you can keep the trend going or move on to the newer stuff. You can’t go wrong with either of these movies, it just depends on your vibe for the night. Are you in the mood for classic horror or a little more scary?
7. Insidious
This is one of my favorite scary movies of all time. This one definitely keeps you on the edge of your seat and brings a higher level of suspense, especially with the music! If you have nothing to do on this day, you can binge the entire Insidious series (which I highly recommend).
6. Scream
This is one of my FAVORITES! This is absolutely a must! Need I say more?
5. Annabelle
Annabelle definitely brings a scare factor into the movie mix. Annabelle herself is super creepy and the movie always keeps you on your toes.
4. Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original or 2013 version)
I’m making Texas Chainsaw Massacre interchangeable as well! Obviously, the original movie is a classic and I highly encourage everyone to watch it if you haven’t, but the 2013 version is also a good one!
3. Sinister
This may take the cake on the scariest/most disturbing movie I’ve ever seen. The storyline is disturbing and the whole movie I feel like I want to cover my eyes.
2. The Conjuring
The Conjuring holds a special place in my heart as my comfort movie. I could watch this movie every day of my life. If you aren’t familiar, it’s the same vibe as Annabelle and Insidious. The movies take place in the same universe which I think is pretty cool!
1. Halloween (2018)
It only felt right to make Halloween #1. Starting with the original and ending with the more recent version. I really enjoyed this movie and think it’s a perfect way to end the list!
Hopefully, this list delivers and puts you in the Halloween spirit this season! I know I’ll definitely be following it and I hope you all do too!
