Halloween is the holiday that my friends and I love the most! The decorations, the costumes, the candy, but also... the terrifying films and series that guarantee us evenings of fright and howls of terror... and laughter! This year, my friends and I have a busy schedule planned, where we're going to have a marathon of cult horror films. Even though we know them by heart, we can't get enough of seeing them again and again, especially together in a setting that glorifies these masterpieces.
My friend Stan loves the rug I installed in my hallway to welcome visitors for the evening. He even laughed when he said that this carpet can give a little original touch all year round, which doesn't surprise me at all since he installs decorations from his favorite films all over his apartment!
The film begins in chilling silence. My friends and I are still captivated by the palpable anguish that emanates from the hotel. Even though she's seen the film dozens of times, Emma couldn't help screaming at certain scenes, which provoked laughter from the others.

The next day, before plunging into the darkness of the day's film, it was essential to concoct some delicious treats to make the evening perfect. Chips, popcorn and a variety of drinks were a must!

we're going to see on screen after the meal. I can't believe she even dyed her hair just for one evening... and she's not even sure if the color will come out with the next shampoo!
The atmosphere was really good-natured, and we couldn't help but laugh, but those started to stop as Chucky came to life on the screen. Amélie joked that she was going to burn all her dolls, which amused Emma, who asked her if she really still had dolls at her age. The tension was eased by the jokes of Jules, who imitated Chucky's voice in a rather creepy way.

What a fright! While shopping for Halloween decorations for the approaching October 31st, I felt as if I'd been plunged straight into the terrifying world of Pennywise. Imagine finding yourself in front of a scary clown, the spitting image of the famous clown, while you're looking for Halloween decorations and candy...
I think I must have panicked a little, because the clown felt obliged to reassure me, introducing himself as an animator hired by the store. And frankly, his make-up was so... realistic..
To relax, I made a small remark about the fact that if he were a killer clown, he wouldn't indeed be in a store in broad daylight, and then... he got very serious and asked me if this wasn't the best way for a killer clown to blend into the background...
I finally left the aisle very quickly, putting off my purchases for another day, under the terrifying gaze of this terrifying clown. It was only in the parking lot that I felt a little silly for having been scared of a... store assistant! At least tonight, when we're swapping
clown stories with friends, I'll have a truly original story to tell them, so we'll all have a good laugh!

Tonight, we're planning a cult film, a must-see tribute to the genre, and a change of tone with this slasher flick. We were all familiar with it, and thought we'd have a quiet evening, but nothing went as planned!
It started with real phone calls every time the phone rang on the screen. And not just any calls... No one on the other end of the line, just slow breathing without a word... It was enough to make us jump all the way through the film, which we tried to finish anyway, thinking it was a bad joke...
But the more the film progressed, the more the calls echoed those on the small screen, despite the many pauses we made! It was unreal, and the tension kept mounting until we all saw him behind the window - it was him in his terrifying mask! We screamed, and I immediately thought of the clown I'd seen yesterday - had he been following me without my knowledge?
It was only when Stan burst out laughing, unable to keep a straight face in the face of our panic, that we realized he'd set up the joke with his the evening more memorable... It was incredibly successful, one of our best horror movie evenings ever!

You know, we all have a film that traumatizes us again and again, even if we've already seen it or know it by heart... For me, it's that film... And I don't think my friends are far from my state either, as they've been strangely much calmer and less assured than previous evenings.
As soon as the film started, the atmosphere became heavy and worrying. I was hoping to be reassured by jokes and amusing remarks from my friends, but it was a failure!
We looked at each other, wondering who would dare watch the most terrifying scene. Emma decided to put a blanket over her head to avoid seeing, and Jules tried to hide her face behind a cushion. Stan, Amélie and I faced our fear bravely, well just about... it was still easier to bear with our eyes closed, but I'm sure nobody noticed in the dark. My honor is safe!

It's October 30th, the eve of Halloween. Tomorrow we'll all be celebrating the night of fright and fright-filled fun together, while preparing tricks for the children who come knocking on our door before offering them candy. There's no reason why only kids should have fun on Halloween!
So it's our last horror movie night, and to end on a high note, we've chosen a film we're not familiar with. We've never been attracted to it, as its atmosphere and visuals don't seem our age anymore. But it had been recommended to us by friends, and we were very intrigued.
And we have to admit, we had a great time. The mix of horror and magic captivated all members of the group, while taking us back to our childhood, when it was still impossible to see this kind of film without shaking. At the end, the characters sparked discussions about courage and adventure, and we all agreed that Coraline had a touch of beauty and some very good ideas.
This final evening brought our annual horror marathon to a close. We shared laughs, fears and memories. We promised to meet again next year for more thrilling evenings, this time perhaps with films from other genres.
Horror and fantasy films can not only frighten, but also bring people together and strengthen friendships.
