Halloween movies for redheads
Halloween is so much fun! Redheads are featured in so many scary movies! I mean… that’s probably because the world believed that we were all vampires, werewolves or witches – but who cares!
This is not a movie list for everyone, this is a list of movies that feature redheads and for redheads. Each and every one has been carefully crafted and highly recommended by another redhead!
IT
Is it too late to warn those who have a fear of clowns?
IT is a mysterious being who shape shifts into different characters to exploit its victims fears.
You can’t get more scary than Pennywise… Pennywise is possibly the scariest clown to ever appear on TV.
This guy lures in his victims by hiding in drains and expressing his love for popcorn – “because it POPS”. If that wasn’t bad enough, Pennywise can not only shapeshifter, but he also has the ability to manipulate reality and go unnoticed by adults.
I guess the only appealing thing about the clown, is that he has ginger hair, three spikes of ginger hair!
Ginger Snaps
Ginger Snaps follows a pair of sisters who are obsessed with death. The movie series begins with a number of dog deaths in a town where usually, not much happens.
Brigitte and Ginger Fitzgerald, Ginger is attacked by a wild creature – a werewolf.
And yes, before you ask, Ginger does have ginger hair.
This film is crazy and too much happens, if you love werewolf transitions, high school gossip and love trouble – this is for you!
Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters
Okay so call me a coward, but Red Haired Witch is terrifying. By now, I am sure that most people know the story ‘Hansel and Gretel’ – you know, the one where the siblings almost get cooked by a witch in her cottage made of sweet treats?
In this film, Red Haired Witch is played by the incredible Joanna Kulig.
Red Haired Witch is sadistic and ultimately just EVIL.
Watch if you dare.
Hocus Pocus
You can’t get through October without watching Hocus Pocus. This film follows a halloween ghost story that actually comes to life.
Winifred Sanderson is one of the Sanderson sisters, and arguably one of the most iconic witches of all time. Bette Midler appears as the witch in both Hocus Pocus 1 and Hocus Pocus 2.
If you’re like me and prefer a more light hearted movie experience, one that makes you laugh but gives you all of the spooky feels at the same time, then this one is for you.
Harry Potter
Harry Potter is great for so many things, but who can fault the Weasley family, AKA the most iconic redheaded family in history. The Weasleys are a friendly bunch who appreciate love over money. They are a family of 7 who each have bright red locks – what more could you want!
Harry Potter is a movie series that follows a boy named… Harry Potter.
Throughout the films, you see Harry take on his arch nemesis Lord Voldemort. Helping him all the way, are his best friend’s Hermione and “Ron – Ron Weasley”.
Harry Potter is a classic for a reason, it is also spooky at times, like come on I wouldn’t want to encounter Bellatrix Lestrange, Voldemort or Peter Pettigrew any time soon.
Halloween
Halloween is all about Michael Myers. Yes, Michael Myers is most known for his mask, but I like to remember him by his hair.
Michael Myers is crazy. He went through so much effort to break out of an insane asylum, just to kill his remaining family members and anyone who gets in his way.
Yeah, you count me out of this one guys! Enjoy!
Leprechaun
The incredible Warwick Davis plays a redheaded Leprechaun in Leprechaun, and let’s just say things get weird.
For all of you who love a horror film that makes you laugh along the way, this is right up your street.
What could be so freaky about a vengeful Leprechaun who has convinced himself that a family of strangers has stolen his pot of gold? I guess you will have to wait and see!
Child’s Play
Child’s Play is all about Chucky.
I am just going to say one thing about this film, because even the thought of this creepy doll running around makes me shudder.
A widowed mother decides to give her son a gift. Yep, you guessed it, that gift is a ginger doll. It all sounds so nice right? But no.
The mother is unaware that the doll, Chucky, is possessed by the soul of a serial killer…
Annabelle
Unlike Child’s Play, with Chucky, rumours state that Annabelle is based on a true story!
Annabelle is also a ginger doll, who wears a white dress and when she is around – strange things happen!
Scooby Doo Movie
For those of you who couldn’t think of anything worse than watching a scary movie, just take it back to basics. Scooby Doo the movie is fun and nostalgic, all you have to do is sit and enjoy watching some “meddling kids”, including the redheaded Daphne, save the world from some not-so-creepy creatures!
Death Becomes Her
Remember when everyone thought that redheads were either witches, werewolves or vampires? Yeah, we are back to this topic again! Of course if the beautiful Goldie Hawn is going to turn into a vampire, then she has to be a ginger one!
This film is not too terrifying and is genuinely funny at times. The plot sees two women, including Meryl Streep, compete for a man of their dreams. But, you soon find out that being young and immortal comes at a price, a bloody price.
