I am desperately trying to remember this movie that I used to watch as a kid. It's an animated kids movie about two siblings (a boy and girl...I think) who hang out with all the ghosts, ghouls, goblins, witches etc. on Halloween night. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
OK so apparently Hocus Pocus has quite a following here. I've never seen it but have been wanting to for quite some time.
Madame Leota - Thank you for mentioning Disney's The Haunted Mansion!!! I realize it isn't popular with HM di-hards and I personally will never forgive Disney for ruining it by sticking Eddie Murphy in it. It could have also had a great sequel in "Phantom Manor" and maybe even a third like the POTC series, but alas, I fear that will never happen. Having said all that, it is still one of my favouite haunted house movies and the effects, set design and musical score are out of this world (no pun intended)!
OK, the list in order of my preferences:
Sleepy Hollow (the quintesential Halloween movie!)
The Others (I love this one....spooky, spooky, spooky!)
The Haunting (both versions & I love the book!)
Disney's The Haunted Mansion (not sure what my wife'll do if I watch this again this month!)
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Sixth Sense
From Hell
The Freightners (bet you all forgot about that one!)
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
The Mummy & The Mummy II
Beetlejuice
Gothic
High Spirits (remember that one with Steve Guttneberg and Peter O'Toole??)
Amityville Horror (both versions)
An American Haunting
Brotherhood of the Wolf
Nightmare Before Christmas
Corpse Bride
House on Haunted Hill (both versions)
Thirteen Ghosts (both versions)
Ghost Ship
Practical Magic (yes I know it's the "chick flic" of the genre... LOL)
Scooby-Doo; The Movie & Scooby-Doo 2 (I liked #2 way better for some reason)
Adams Family & Adams Family Values
Casper
Disney's The Legend of Ichabod Crane
Young Frankenstein
Want to see/acquire:
Cemetery Man (looks interesting)
Trick or Treat
The Fog (both versions, they just look really cool!)
Hocus Pocus (everyone else has seen it, I might as well...LOL)
Well I'm sure I've fogotten something but that prettywell does it!

CROGLINVAMPIRE, I agree... I actually love the Haunted Mansion movie; the sets, the effects, almost everything about it. I just think it had even more potential and could've even been a series like POTC.
Sigh... oh well! :OP
