10 Spooky Halloween Movies To Freak Your Kids Out

9. Something Wicked This Way Comes (1983)

Something Wicked This Way Comes Amazingly this terrifying tale comes from the House of Mouse themselves but just a glance at the poster would have you thinking Hammer House of Horror at least. Two young boys from Illinois on their way home from detention come across a bizarre travelling carnival lead by the mysterious 'Illustrated Man' Mr Dark and discover that what seems like an innocent enough looking place is actually a dark and evil circus of horrors with freaks and monsters galore intent on harvesting the souls of the unsuspecting townsfolk. The film cost a staggering $19 million to produce but only scraped $9 million back which is perhaps a reason this spooky classic is long forgotten by many and certainly not a film Disney are keen to promote. However if you look hard enough you will be able to pick up a copy and it's a real treat for kids who don't believe Disney movies can be utterly terrifying.
