A modern horror masterpiece, it will have you on the edge of your seat with its blend of societal critique and suspense.

Treat to Pick Up: Cereal and Milk - a nod to a creepy scene, but enjoy it from a bowl, not the cup.

8. "The Witch" (2015) directed by Robert Eggers

Delve into the paranoid and the puritanical with this atmospheric tale of a family facing unspeakable evil.

Note: Ensure all treats are prepared or purchased while considering any dietary restrictions or allergies. Always enjoy your horror responsibly and respect each viewer's comfort level – some films may not be suitable for all audiences. Happy Halloween!
