Halloween movie nights do not always have to mean hiding behind a pillow every five minutes. Sometimes, the best kind of spooky is the kind that comes with a little magic, a lot of laughs, and just enough creepy moments to keep everyone entertained.
Whether kids want something fun and animated or grown-ups want a little more mystery and dark fantasy, HBO Max has plenty of titles to choose from.
So, if the family is planning a Halloween watch session, here are 10 kid-friendly and family-friendly picks worth adding to the list.
