darchildre: sepia toned, a crow perched on a gravestone (gravestone)
During October this year, I revisited a lot of my horror film collection in the run up to Halloween, ending with The VVitch, which has become my always-watch-on-Halloween movie. In doing this, I've realized that there is a significant gap in my collection - I have almost no movies about ghosts or hauntings. My horror collection is nearly all monster-based. This is understandable, as I love monsters very much but ghosts and witches are, for me, the most appropriate kinds of horror for Halloween viewing. Other things are great horror but they aren't necessarily Halloween horror.

Thus, I am embarking on a project. I'm going to make a big list of ghost/haunting/haunted house movies and watch them over the next year* till I find one that feels tonally appropriate to pair with The VVitch, and then I can have a yearly Halloween double feature.

Do any of you guys have a favorite ghost/haunting/haunted house movie you'd like to recommend? I am open to watching pretty much anything.
