My kids have been pestering me to let them watch a spooky film this weekend (we do Saturday night family movies). DS is 6 and a half and massively into Halloween, he doesn't scare easily either. However, I also have DD (nearly 5) who is a total wettie and doesn't have a great attention span.

Any recommendations for a child-friendly Halloween film that won't make me want to scratch my eyes out? No 'Paw Patrol's Halloween' or other awful TV tie-in films please, I have to watch the film too!

I'd been thinking of Casper but seem to remember a lot of mildly bad language which unfortunately DS will definitely pick up on and copy. (He's that sort of 6 year old... we've been hauled over by his teacher already for copying 'bloody hell' from Harry Potter!)

Coraline is a lovely spooky film for kids that mine watched around that age.

Not at 7 that is more for 9/10.
If your child has any fear of spiders do not ever show Coraline.

I second The Little Vampire! Hocus Pocus is great but I'd say some 5 year olds might find parts of it scary?

Sorry should have specified, the 2000 live action Little Vampire. Apparently there's an animated one as well but I've never seen it
