19 Best Halloween Movies for Kids

These scary movies (that aren't too scary) will set the Halloween mood for the entire family

By Elina Bolokhova

Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)

Dreamed up by Tim Burton, The Nightmare Before Christmas tells the story of Jack Skellington—the “King of Halloween”—who, tired with staging Halloween festivities year after year, finds a door to Christmas Town and decides to try his hand at that holiday, instead. We dare you not to have the songs from this musical flick stuck in your head for days after watching. "This is Halloween" should be the unofficial theme song of October! Best of all, it also makes a great Christmas movie.
