This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Utica chapter.

October has finally arrived; which basically means halloween has arrived as well. Netflix has picked up on the recent trend of “Netflix and Chill” which means what it basically says; you chill and watch netflix all day. Netflix just came out with a new series call “Netflix and Chills” honoring this year’s Halloween season. The list of movies they give is endless, but there is a couple of movies that definitely stick out more than others.

1. The Shining (1980)

Rated R

2. 1922 (2017)

Rated R

3. Gerald’s Game (2017)

Rated R

4. Oculus (2013)

Rated R

5. The Lazarus Effect (2015)

Rated R

Each of these movies are great to watch, and they all have an amazing plot that will leave you not wanting to sleep alone after you are done watching it. But, do not forget that Netflix added a series “Netflix and Chills”  where you are able to see other great scary movies during this whole month of October. Hope you all have a Wicked October.

Meet Bianca, I am currently a Junior at Utica College in Utica, NY.  I am a Criminal Justice major with a concentration in Homeland Security.  Crime investigation has always been something that interests me.  I’m dedicated and passionate and it’s hard for me to quit things. I get that from my father so don’t hold it against me- he was a veteran and police officer for 20 years.   Growing up in a family centered around law enforcement has helped guide me in this direction, and I will forever be grateful.  After graduation I intend to continue on to law school where I can further my education in hopes of becoming a criminal defense lawyer and later on a District Attorney.  An interesting fact about myself is that I found the passion to be a criminal defense lawyer from watching the O.J. Simpson case.  The facts and conspiracy theories evoked a whole new passion behind criminal investigation that I intend to use in my future.  One of my most prominent moments in my writing career was when I wrote for an online magazine and had my most prevalent article hit 1.6k shares.  I believe in treating people with the same kind of respect and manners you would expect in return, and in a way it has helped shaped my expectations in life.   When you first meet me I won’t be the loudest in the room or the center of attention, but I will be intently listening to everything you say, for what you have to say may have a purpose. I believe in purpose. I believe that everyone is here to help you grow into who you are today and who you will be tomorrow.
