Twitches (2005)

It's an absolute must to watch Twitches every spooky season. It's based on the book series of the same name by H. B. Gilmour and Randi Reisfeld and stars real-life twin sisters Tia and Tamera Mowry as Camryn and Alex, twin sisters separated at birth who are reunited on their 21st birthday and find out their witches and have magical abilities. After learning their kingdom is under threat, Camryn and Alex team up together to save it from impending danger.

Twitches Too (2007)

If you're going to watch the first film, then you have to continue on and watch its sequel as well. Twitches Too continues to follow the lives of twin witch sisters Camryn and Alex, who are adjusting to their new roles as princesses in their kingdom while also maintaining some normalcy in the human world. After learning there's a new evil force threatening their kingdom, Camryn and Alex work together to strengthen their magic powers so that they will be ready for battle.

Halloweentown (1998)

Halloweentown is easily one of the best Disney Halloween movies ever made. It centers around a young girl named Marnie who embarks on an adventure in a mystical realm after learning from her grandmother that she comes from a long line of witches. That mystical realm is called Halloweentown, a magical place where supernatural creatures can lead a normal life. Marnie soon learns that Halloweentown is under attack from an evil force, and it's up to her to put a stop to it.

Hocus Pocus (1993)

Hocus Pocus stars Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy as three 300-year-old evil witches who are unknowingly conjured up by a teenage boy on Halloween night. Now that they have returned to life, the witch trio is determined to steal the youth of children to regain their powers and become immortal. It's up to the teen boy, his sister, and their friend to stop them.

Don't Look Under the Bed (1999)

Truthfully, Don't Look Under the Bed scared me as a kid, but now I can appreciate so much more as an adult. It's a really good movie to watch on Halloween. It revolves around a teenage girl named Frances who doesn't believe in the supernatural. Well, that's until she starts experiencing unusual occurrences and discovers that those disturbances are caused by a mysterious creature living under her bed, the boogeyman.

After being framed for the destructive pranks happening around her town, Frances teams up with an imaginary friend, Larry Houdini, to defeat the real culprit, aka the boogeyman.
