How do you get ready for Halloween? Christian and I liked to spend the month of October streaming Halloween classics. He kept a list of his favorites, so we were always prepared. This year every streaming service seems to offer a curated list of their finest scary movies and TV episodes.
Chainsaws and dismemberments flicks aren’t really my thing, so curated lists are an effective way for me to limit the gore I’m prepared to see on any given night.
