(KTLA) – Whether it's starting to feel like fall in your area or not, Halloween season is in full swing and the pumpkin spice is flowing. There are also plenty of scary movies to choose from on cable TV or streaming services.
But if you're not exactly a horror lover, have no fear (pun intended). Like any film genre, horror comes in a variety of flavors and intensity. Even the term "horror" is pretty loose and less restrictive than you might think, because for every "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre," there's a "Leprechaun 4: In Space."
We've compiled a list of "mild" or spooky-but-not-scary horror movies for those who want to dip their toe into the genre this Halloween season. Enjoy!
