The pumpkins are carved, and your costume is ready. All you need to make Halloween even spookier is a scary flick. Arts & Leisure has taken a trip to the graveyard and summoned the spirit of ten films that will add even more frights to your Halloween weekend.
_Warning: These are not for the faint-hearted._
