If you’re looking to get in the spirit by cozying up on the couch and binging a few flicks, then keep reading for the 35 best Halloween movies on Netflix!
Scream is a great Halloween movie for beginners. This movie is perfect combination of campy and scary, so it is great to watch with a group of friends. (Warning: it might make you more afraid to answer a phone call than you were before.)
Coraline is freaky, but it is definitely not going to be the most terrifying Halloween movies on Netflix. Give this one a go if you’re not one for blood and gore.
Come for the scares, stay to try and figure out how the Babadook became a gay icon in 2017.
Just because this one is old does not mean it isn’t scary! The fly in your room will definitely not seem so scary anymore. There is also a 1986 remake starring Jeff Goldblum, so you can make it a double feature!
This horror classic is a must for any Halloween movie list. You might end up watching this one a couple more times to actually understand it, but it will be just as terrifying each time as the first!
Gene Wild is absolutely perfect as a young Dr. Frankenstein trying to prove himself in Transylvannia. And honestly hilarious!
The friendly ghost! This is one of those Halloween movies that somehow never, ever gets old.
After you watch the original, you are definitely going to want to revisit Casper Meets Wendy. Hillary Duff and Casper are #squadgoals.
See the original before you go see the reboot in theaters! (Hard pass if you’re not into clowns, though.)
This is M. Night Shyamalan at his best. (You know, before he made a movie about the devil getting stuck in an elevator?) DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT fall asleep for the end! You will be mind blown.
Let’s face it, the Addams were the original modern family.
Experience the movie everyone was freaking out about 10 years ago when you were too young to buy a ticket to see it!
This movie centers on the investigation of three decapitations in Sleepy Hollow. (The Headless Horseman might be a safe bet.)
The least scary movie on the list!
You know what they say! Behind every great monster is a great monster lady.
This particularly terrifying take on the college dating scene might just make you even warier of dating college dudes.
This is one of those movies that your parents always talk about and make you wish you could have watched it in theaters with them. Scary? It won’t keep you up at night, but it will have you laughing.
Watch the all-female reboot after the original!
No, you might not be able to get the songs in this movie out of your head for a few weeks. But you will absolutely get some good Halloween costume inspiration.
The title is usually a pretty good sell on this one. It is the absolute epitome of Halloween horror!
Watch the movie that came before all of the sequels, reboots, and tv shows! Do not watch this one alone, though!
A great ’80s thriller about vampires! What more could you want?
And after you watch the original, you will probably want to check out the reboot. Because Collin Farrel as a vampire.
Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock as hot witches. Enough said.
Most likely to have scarred you as a child when you stumbled upon it on a cable network. (Might actually be one of the Halloween movies on Netflix that you avoid…)
A serial killer who strikes only in his victim’s dreams. Yeah, maybe watch this one in the light of day?
Tim Burton sure has an interesting take on October weddings! A fun watch if you’re looking for one of the less spooky Halloween movies on Netflix.
Michael Keaton will for sure creep you out as Beetlejuice, a ghost who loves to rock a good suit.
The OG walking dead. It is a must-watch for zombie fans!
This Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder classic is probably more likely to make you shed a tear than scare you.
Would you take $10,000 to live in a haunted house overnight? Yeah, probably TBH.
They’re heeere… Ah yes, the movie that brought you one of the most famous lines in movie history. And also the same line you say when the pizza guy shows up.
If you love Halloween and Christmas, this is a movie you can watch from October until December!
Watch at your own risk, this movie is based on a true story.
