We’ll never grow out of some Halloween rituals. We may no longer be begging for treats door-to-door, but we’re still munching on candy (mindfully, that is) and fully committing to our respective costumes. Another tradition we’ll be indulging in this year is torturing ourselves with scary movies. Admittedly, we’ve got to be in the mood for serious slasher flicks and psychological thrillers, but this holiday definitely puts us in that state of mind. If you enjoy doing the same and are looking for some classic films to watch from home (preferably with popcorn and someone nearby to grab onto for dear life), we’ve compiled a list of quintessential scary movies everyone ought to see at least once.
Scream
Halloween
The Shining
Psycho
The Blair Witch Project
It (1990)
Rosemary's Baby
A Nightmare On Elm Street
