What is there to do at times like this? While you could do a marathon night of the Disney Channel Halloween episodes on Disney+ or watch scary movies until you scream so loud your vocal chords give out, so here are some classics to get you in the Halloween spirit!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Starting off with a classic, \u201cScream\u201d directed by Wes Craven debuted in 1996 with the iconic white ghostface mask. This slasher-thriller showcases this Ghostface killer stalks high school students in middle-class suburbia. A group of friends work together using their knowledge of horror movies to try and unmask the killer. This classic film showcases the iconic \u201cDo you like scary movies\u201d which opens the film. This sets the tone for the entire film and makes you even more tense throughout the spooky experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another film to add to your Halloween watchlist this year is Coraline. This stop-motion film from 2009 showcases Coraline Jones galavanting through her old house in her boring new town but as she is exploring, she finds\u00a0 little door to a strangely perfect version of her life that seems too good to be true. Why is this in the Halloween category? The Other-Mother has button eyes, the way music is utilized to build suspense, and paranormal activities can truly make you creeped out (in a good way).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, if you want a bit of nostalgia for Disney Channel Movies, watch Girl vs. Monster. This 2012 classic showcases Skylar (played by Olivia Holt) going on a mission to capture a mysterious monster she accidentally let loose before it wreaks havoc on her beloved town. This movie has musical bops like \u201cFearless\u201d sung by Olivia Holt and \u201cHad Me @ Hello\u201d sung by Luke Benward and Olivia Holt.<\/p>\n<p><\/span>Sabrina Rogers<\/p>\n<p>Entertainment Editor<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So one week until Halloween, post fall-break sleepiness, getting back to the swing of things at Roanoke College.
