It is pumpkin carving, cookie baking, scary movie, bonfire, and smores season! We’re talking leaf crunching and apple cider sipping kind of ish. You know, the grab your best friends and head down to the local haunted house kind of energy. Can you tell I’m excited? But seriously, I know with Covid and threats of Halloween being “cancelled” fall can seem less like its golden self in 2020.
Who even has the authority to cancel Halloween? This is a holiday made for staying in. I mean, sure we have turned it into an adult theme park full of costumes and parties with so much alcohol that we don’t remember its November the next morning. But what if I told you Halloween is just as fun cuddled up on the couch with a seasonally themed movie, a strain to go with it, and of course your favorite munchies?
Well its possible and I have even compiled a little list of Halloween movies and strains to smoke them with to enhance your spooky movie experience. You are welcome.
Halloween-Town
I had to start this list off with one of my favorite Halloween movies growing up. Halloween Town is about a young girl saving her family and the town her family is originally from even if she has never been there until now. If you pair it with the sativa Green Crack, you will stay uplifted and awake for the whole movie no matter how many chocolates you eat.
Hocus Pocus
Is it even a Halloween movie list if I do not mention the classic Disney Hocus Pocus? Three sister witches being brought back from the dead by a virgin blowing out a black flame candle? I’m in. Pairing it with the hybrid Blue Cookies will make for an even cozier experience too!
Clue the Movie
This is a classic but a goodie! Clue the Movie is even better than the board game and if you watch it with friend (even on Facebook watch) you can choose different characters as your own. Stay focused and help solve the mystery too by pairing this movie with the Sativa Jack Herer.
Halloween (2018)
Honestly any of the Halloween movies are perfect for Halloween but the newest 2018 one has to be one of the best. I mean, Jamie Lee Curtis back and ready to attack? Yes, please! Pairing this movie with the hybrid White Widow will keep you chill enough to get though the scary parts but focused enough not to fall asleep.
Child’s Play
What is Halloween without Chuckie the murdering doll? Child’s Play is about a terrifying doll that pretty much wreaks havoc on an entire town and his name is Chuckie. Grab the Sativa Candyland to help get through the jumpy parts but still be able to enjoy the good plot twists.
Disney’s Haunted Mansion
When a realtor’s wife is brought into a deadly plot of love it makes for a visually amazing experience very much in the realm of Disney. Seriously one of my all-time favorite Halloween Movies! Pair this one with the Hybrid Peanut Butter breath and stay uplifted through even the tear-jerking scenes.
