Does anybody still celebrate Halloween? I still do even though I’m 22, haha. I’m planning to go to some fall festivals at churches with family and I’m hopefully going to a haunted house (Dead Man Farm) with friends at the end of October. On actual Halloween, I’ll watch a horror movie or two and pig out on candy.

^I'm kinda surprised that churches do Halloween festivities, haha.
I want to do a corn maze someday, but there's none around me and they always have limited hours.
I've bought pumpkins/roasted seeds the past few years. It is too much work. I've found that I can buy a rather large bag of pumpkin seeds at Farm & Fleet for a few bucks and cut out all the pumpkin mess for them. Not as festive but oh well.

I do. I still wear a witch costume and I go outside wearing it while carrying a small cauldron. Hopefully, in the future I will go to a hay ride somewhere in upstate NY where they scare you (I need to find the name of the place. I know it mentioned on some show the Travel Channel showed about Halloween).

I'm gonna try this year, get a costume and hand out candy. For the first time I live in a neighborhood where trick or treators would come to the house lol. Maybe watch a Halloween special on tv.

Lately my challenge has been thinking up costumes that I can wear to work. Last year I was Marty McFly, and I'm thinking about doing Mary Poppins this year but I'm not sure.

I don't celebrate but I really love the holiday! It's one of my favourite times of year... I love September and October!

I love it too, though I haven't dressed up in recent years. Maybe I'll twin this year with my black cat, that would be an easy costume.

It’s a tie between The Shining, Amityville Horror, and Insidious 3.

I couldn't even answer this question! I guess I need to watch more scary Halloween movies! I don't even know why I haven't, I guess I'm too into Hocus Pocus and Teen Witch and the lot...

I used to watch Halloween I & II, Carrie and The Exorcist all the time when I was younger. Unfortunately, I had watched them so many times that I eventually got tired of them and stopped watching.
To this day, I refused to watch them. Even when it's Halloween.

What are your favorite feel good Halloween movies? Not the scary kinds but still Halloween.
Mine are Coraline, The Corpse Bride, The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Addams Family, and especially Halloweentown.

I love Halloweentown and the entire saga (the fourth unnecessary in a way). Phantom of the mega plea is a favorite in Disney.

I used to watch all the Jason/Freddy Kruger/Halloween movies all the time. Child's Play, Critters. (I Critters on TV a few months ago, and it was SO BAD and not scary.) I loved Scream when it came out but am over it now. Basically I watched a lot of slasher movies at an inappropriate age.
The only family movie I can think of is Casper, but that wasn't Halloween oriented. There was a Halloween party in it, but it wasn't the point of the movie.
On TV, all the Halloween episodes of Roseanne are super funny. I used to get excited for the Treehouse of Horror episodes of The Simpsons.
