There’s no shortage of spooky Halloween movies that have been made over the years, from the popular to the obscure, but not all of them are kid-friendly. If you’re looking for an eerie flick to watch with your family leading up to Halloween, Netflix has you covered no matter the age of your kids (according to the streaming service’s research, 85 percent of parents are interested in finding ways to celebrate Halloween that are less spooky for their children, so Netflix was sure to include plenty of not-scary titles for the holiday!).
Check out which Halloween specials and movies – plus a few movies that have Halloween vibes in general – are streaming now (and if you’re daring, see which horror movies you can stream after your little ones have gone to sleep).
