MY HALLOWEEN WATCH LIST


In honor of Halloween tomorrow, I thought I'd share my go-to movies + shows for a fun spooky celebration! I love a good mix of actual Halloween movies + ones that just feel like Halloween. As I've gotten older, I've definitely settled into more of the traditional Halloween fun, however I do love a good thriller every now in then. I'm partial to the oldies- you can't go wrong with the classics: Halloween, A Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream. For something even more sinister, Psycho and The Shining are always good choices! 

I'm personally probably all out of spooks for this year so I'm keeping my watch list a little more tame + on the fun side. Here are my top picks: 

HALLOWEEN WATCH LIST
+ Halloweentown
+ Hocus Pocus
+ Harry Potter (any or all - pick your fave!)
+ Twilight (also buyer's choice but I can skip over New Moon - definitely my least favorite book!)
+ Ghostbusters 
+ Haunted Mansion 
+ The Good Witch 
+ The Vampire Diaries 
+ Disturbia 

I also have several on my list that I've never watched. I've been dying to watch Practical Magic, The Craft and Death Becomes Her for years, I've just never gotten around to them. In a perfect world, I'd love to read Practical Magic before watching the movie. I've heard they are a little different but I always like to get a good back story when it comes to book + movie adaptations! 

What's your favorite Halloween movie?

MY TOP 5 FAVORITE HALLOWEEN BLOG POSTS

Happy HALLOWEEK! As always, the month of October has gone by way too fast! I've had a lot going on this month and for some reason, just haven't been as into the Halloween vibes this year. I think the weather being on the warmer side has been a large part of that. It's honestly so crazy that Halloween is just three days away and then it's on to November (aka CHRISTMAS). It's wild, ya'll. I'm going to do my best to enjoy this week and soak up a little spookiness! In honor of that and my forever love of Halloween, here's a little round-up of my favorite Halloween blog posts here on TKD. Besides one post from this year, the rest are all throwbacks from over the years. Hope you enjoy a little festive fun here on the blog + that you have a spooktacular week! 

1. ANTHROPOLOGIE HALLOWEEN FINDS 2024 - I'm all for Anthro anything when it comes to home decor. They do some of the best holiday collections + this year's Halloween was no exception. So many cute + spooky finds! 


2. TRYING A VIRAL TIK-TOK HALLOWEEN SNACK MIX - I definitely need to whip some of this snack mix up! I made this two Halloweens ago and it was so yummy! If you love a salty + sweet vibe, definitely try it out. 


3. HALLOWEEN BOOKS I WANT TO READ - Confession time- all of the books from this post are still on my TBR list. I always have big plans to read holiday themed books every season but that doesn't always pan out, haha. We'll try again next year!  


4. OCTOBER TO-DO LIST [ALL THE HALLOWEEN THINGS] - One of my favorite parts of the fall + Halloween season are all the fun activities. Like reading, I don't always get everything done on my list but I try! I love to make a night out of watching movies, baking, etc.! 


5. SPOOKY HALLOWEEN DECOR FINDS - More spooky decor finds! I love all Halloween decor but I'm definitely into the more glam, spooky vibes. I can't wait to one day go all out when I own my own home! 


What are your Halloween plans this year?
