Shudder's Halloween Streaming list
Enjoy some classic Halloween scares on Shudder!
Amazon Prime has several scary movies to choose from as well!
Rent "The Fog" on Prime and keep an ear-out for familiar locations and road names. Many road names in the film were named after popularly traveled roads in Bowling Green, Kentucky. A place where film director John Carpenter called home for a period of time.

So many titles to choose from including one of my all time favorites "The Amityville Horror" from 1979
