Thank you so much for the tag Petals, Paws and Pages for tagging me in this tag! I love anything to do with Halloween so I am beyond excited to take part in this…

Q1 – What is your favourite thing about October? October is actually my birthday month so that’s what I love the most! Very closely followed by Halloween.

Q2 – Are you a big celebrator of Halloween? To an extent yes, I absolutely love Halloween, however, I’m quite introverted to my plans usually include carving pumpkins, watching horror films and decorating my room. But going out to parties and trick or treating NO THANK U.

Q3 – What’s your favourite horror movie? Ah please don’t put me on the spot like this, I actually CANNOT decide. It’s a toss up between a few…

Q4 – Would you rather a cosy night in watching horror or a big night in a costume? A cosy night in watching horror anyday.

Q5 – Which has been your favourite costume to date? I once dressed up as an undead prom queen, which meant I got to wear my prom dress again which I LOVED.

Q6 – Bobbing for apples or pin the hat on the witch? Pin the hat on the witch, DUH!

Q7 – How you celebrate Halloween? Usually by carving some pumpkins, getting some popcorn and chocolate and watching horror films.

Q8 – What’s your least favourite horror? I really hate The Blair Witch Project. It doesn’t scare me, I just really detest it!

Q9 – Do you have a favourite trick or treating memory? I do not 😦 I do remember when I went for a run last Halloween though and got chased by a kid dressed as a werewolf that was pretty scary lmao.

Q10 – What’s your favourite thing about Halloween? That no one judges me for my crazy love of horror films.

Q11 – Scary or silly costume? Silly.

Q12 – What’s your favourite Halloween candy? I don’t really get anything specific for Halloween but if the packaging has like Halloween themes on then I will definitely pick that one over others!

Q13 – How are you celebrating Halloween this year? I will be carving a pumpkin with my boyfriend, eating popcorn and I think watching my two new DVDs, The Ring and The Grudge.

There you have my answers to the Halloween tag. I loved doing this one, as Halloween is literally my second favourite time of the year and whilst it looks different for a lot of people, Halloween 2020 is perfectly normal for me because I usually stay inside and don’t trick or treat or go to parties!

Until next time, Em xxx

WOOP WOOP it’s Halloween!πŸŽƒπŸ‘»πŸ’€ AKA one of my favourite days of the year, and to celebrate I want to share my TEN FAVOURITE HORROR MOVIES with you guys! WOOP.

I literally am obsessed with horror films, my poor poor bf literally has to suffer while I sit and watch them all year round, and in the spirit of Halloween I decided to do something a lil different. HERE WE GOOOO :)))))

P.S. Spoiler alert bcos even though some of these films are quite old, you may not have seen them already!

  1. Nightmare on Elm Street, 1984, directed by Wes Craven. OKAY so I’ve only seen this film series through once because I actually found it entirely too terrifying.
  2. Scream, 1996, directed by Wes Craven. This is probably the first slasher film I ever watched and the line “what’s your favourite scary movie” is an ICONIC line that I never get tired of hearing. Image result for what's your favourite scary movie gif
  3. Saw, 2004, directed by James Wan. This is my fave Saw franchise film as well, when Jigsaw rose from the floor at the end and shouted game over when he shut the door, a twist that no matter how many times I watch it still shocks me.
  4. Psycho, 1960, directed by Alfred Hitchcock. I only watched this film this year but it has become a firm favourite of mine, the suspense WOWZERS.
  5. Hostel, 2005, directed by Eli Roth. I really enjoyed this film despite it’s gory nature, it was like my worst nightmare was put into a film.
  6. Final Destination, 2000, directed by James Wong. Some people think these films are trash (these people are wrong… I’m joking!) for me Final Destination is a cult classic and while the following films might not have been so great the first one is GREAT.
  7. The Shining, 1980, directed by Stanley Kubrick. This is probably in my top 3 horror films, I love Jack Nicholson’s portrayal of Jack Torrance chills me to the bone every time I watch it.
  8. The Conjuring, 2013, directed by James Wan. I will watch this film over and over, when Carolyn is in the cellar trying to stab one of her own children it really scared me!
  9. Veronica, 2017, Paco Plaza.While not the scariest film on Netflix as some described it certainly did send a shiver down my spine, and I’ve since watched it another two times.
  10. Texas Chainsaw Massacre, 1974, directed by Tobe Hooper. Another cult classic makes my list (shock) and when Leatherface chases Sally at the end, it put me off chainsaws for LIFE.

And there you have my top ten favourite horror films! There are SO many more that I absolutely love but that would be an incredibly long list and I want to go watch some of these to celebrate…

Happy Halloween everyone, be safe and have fun whatever you’re doing today/tonight!
