Anything Scooby Doo would've worked on here, but a short list would be: of the movies, Scooby Doo and the Witch's Ghost, Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School, and Scooby Doo on Zombie Island, and of episodes from the various TV seasons, The Headless Horseman of Halloween, To Switch a Witch, and A Halloween Hassle at Dracula's Castle.
Also:
A Haunting in Venice (Ken Branagh's new Poirot movie, which I enjoyed more than I thought I would and sets a Halloween tone better than David Suchet's episode of The Halloween Party does)
Hotel Transylvania
Sleepy Hollow
The Haunted Mansion (the Eddie Murphy one, which I know got mentioned, but it wasn't actually on the list)
The Haunted Mansion 2023 (campy as can be, but not bad)
The Haunting of Bly Manor (which admittedly is a mini-series, not a movie, but my gosh, it's so perfect)

I loved Halloween Town when I was little. I also like Corpse Bridge and The Nightmare Before Christmas. but I feel like any movie by Tim Burton can be considered a Halloween Movie, like Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, Sweeney Todd 2007(directed by Burton. But I also like the Scream franchise. There's Hocus Pocus too, but I have yet to watch the sequel. Monster House was sort of sad as well as halloween-ish just with the backstory of the old man's wife. Sixth Sense o. o was good and horrifying with what people do to one another in the present and past, I can't get over that scene at the little girl's (repass I guess) and the dad watching the hidden camera video.
But if I were in Scream I'd just fail at answering: What's your favorite scary movie?
I'd be like probably anything with care bears.

Dislike for saying Ghostbusters franchise, then including the reboot that us Ghostbusters fans hate. If it was Ghostbusters 1, 2 and 3 aka Afterlife, then fine(plus you rubbed it in by not showing any footage of Ghostbusters 2. But the reboot is not only a 'reboot', so its a separate entity, but its universally hated for being a fart joked(not a funny one either, loud, CGI mess and a embarrassing load of crud, that wastes generally talented actresses like Kristen Wiig and Kate McKinnon(i loved Kristen in Paul especially, plus no one wanted a reboot, we wanted Ghostbusters 3. It was so hated, Afterlife was made to make up for it, and it was a stellar follow up to the beloved first two movies.

The Palestinian people are living in a state of global injustice. Everyone stands with Israel, which is the true aggressor and usurper who took the lands of the Palestinian people about seventy years ago. Seventy years full of injustice, oppression, and the killing of innocents. Thousands of victims were killed by the Israeli usurper, who had no mercy or compassion in his heart, even for children. This is the truth. I hope the world knows the truth about what is happening in Palestine amid the media blackout and the injustice taking place against the Palestinian people.
You don't have to be Muslim to support Palestinians you just have to be human

I like the Halloweentown movies and the Twitches movies. The live action Addams Family movies from the 90s were also good. Hocus Pocus is a great movie. The sequel was good but not as good as the original.
I like the Nightmare Before Christmas, but I don't like mixing holidays that much. After Halloween I like to start thinking about Thanksgiving before I want to start thinking Christmas movies. That's my opinion, I know it won't be a popular one.

In terms of live action films to watch on Halloween, Hocus Pocus, Werewolf by Night, Ghostbusters and Hansel and Gretal: Witch Hunters are it for me. As for animated movies watch for Halloween, Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island, and Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King would be interesting, same goes for the Nightmare Before Christmas, Monster House, and the Princess and the Frog just to count them out.

I would have IT'S THE GREAT PUMPKIN CHARLIE BROWN as #1 and HOCUS POCUS #2. As a side note, my late wife (died in 2021 age 49) lived in Salem MA when they were filming HOCUS POCUS, they lived down the street from the Sanderson House. The high school they showed in the movie is actually a nursing home, the interiors (like many other movies) were filmed at the movie studios in Hollywood.

Im confused why you included Scream and Halloween when you said at the beginning it wouldnt include those types lol. Could have replaced them with Twitches, Underwraps, little shop of horrors, the craft, practical magic, scooby doo, rocky horror picture show, Harry Potter, Labyrinth, Edward scissorhands. The list goes on for spooky movies that arent scary but fit the vibe. Lol

Seriously. This list is so wrong. You mention movies that shouldnt even be mention with other movies and you have some in certain spots that should be higher. And some that shouldnt even be on this list. Total fail

In my view, I consider The Raid franchise, Battle Royale, and John Wick franchise as the Halloween-worthy movies, since both are gory and (quite) violent.
