It’s an easy Halloween activity that requires little to no prep and is enjoyed by all ages. After all, who doesn’t love a good movie night? Take a look at our favorite Halloween family-friendly movies below:

Halloweentown – In this Disney Channel original movie, a young witch named Marnie must work to save Halloweentown from the forces trying to destroy it. Joined by her brother and sister, this movie is just as much about family as it is about the fight for good.
Hocus Pocus – This beloved Halloween flick follows the fearsome Sanderson Sisters – a group of witches from old town Salem. See them cast spells and cause chaos as they embark on a quest for immortality.
Casper – Not all ghosts are scary! Join this not-so-freaky little fella as he haunts Whipstaff manor – all with the goal of finding a friend. This is a perfect choice if you’re in the mood for a live-action movie with just a bit of old-fashioned animation.
Frankenweenie – This twist on Frankenstein tells the tale of Sparky, a beloved family pet brought back to life. Soon other pets are brought back from the dead as well, leading to all sorts of trouble!
Hotel Transylvania – Meet some of the world’s most famous monsters as they vacation at the Hotel Transylvania. Hilarious antics ensue, which is to be expected when the hotel proprietor is none other than Count Dracula.
The Haunted Mansion – Eddie Murphy stars in this spooky film based on the famous Disneyland attraction. As he brings his family to stay at the Haunted Mansion, he’s faced with the task of helping to break an ancient curse.
The Nightmare Before Christmas – If you’re in the mood for a little music with your movie, this offbeat film is a perfect choice! Jack Skellington, aka The Pumpkin King, stumbles upon the land of Christmastown and becomes obsessed with bringing the holiday to life in his own town. Can he pull it off?
It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown – Join Charlie, Linus, and all your other favorite Schulz characters in this truly classic Halloween movie. This is an especially good choice for younger audiences who prefer a tamer viewing experience.

We’ve even included a blank list so you and your littles can come up with your very own movie line-up.

Have fun coming up with some movie ideas together and then write the titles next to the checkboxes. Whether you choose to create your own or go with our premade list, be sure and hang it somewhere the kids can see it! The fridge is always a favorite spot for us.
