The Addams Family: This bizarre, and scary family is coming back to TV! Even though The Addams Family is not what you think of as “evil”, they inhabit a sort of unusual lifestyle not seen in most households. Bring this classic to life and watch with your family and friends!

Halloween: Grab a blanket to cover your eyes for this one, ladies! This slasher/horror film is anything but a little scary; frankly, it’s terrifying.

Beetlejuice: “Beetlejuice, beetlejuice, beetlejuice!” this is another Tim Burton classic about a dead couple that haunts their own home.
