25 Great Halloween Movies for Kids

Summer is over and autumn is finally here, you know what that means, it is finally the spooky season! But don’t worry, some of the best Halloween movies aren’t even that spooky, they’re just a lot of fun!

Here are the best Halloween movies for kids – and trust us – a lot of these hold up when watching them as an adult, too.

Hocus Pocus

Hocus Pocus is a Disney movie that was released in theatres but actually flopped. After so much television airplay it developed a cult following and now is a beloved movie to watch around Halloween.

It tells the story of a teen boy who accidentally raises three bad witch sisters from the dead and he’s have to save the day – more specifically the three witches from stealing his sister’s life force.

It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

It seems like every holiday there is a great Charlie Brown movie and Halloween is no exception. This movie Charlie believes a great pumpkin will visit the pumpkin patch on Halloween and waits for him. Much like any other Charlie Brown movie, it is very sweet and Snoopy is so funny.

Casper

Casper is a movie that follows a father and daughter who movie into a haunted house. The daughter ends up befriending the youngest ghost, Casper, who – you guessed it – is a friendly ghost. The two of them end up forming an unlikely and very cute friendship.

Monster House

Monster House tells the story of three teenagers who realize the haunted house on their street isn’t really haunted – it is a living breathing monster house!

With the talented voices of Steve Buscemi, Catherine O’Hara, and Maggie Gyllenhaal lending their skills to the film, it’s a very spooky fun Halloween romp.
