Spotlights burned high above the edge of downtown Columbus last Saturday night on Oct. 19. Monsters, childhood creations and hopeless souls from beyond the grave gathered inside The Princess Theater. It was the annual Halloween Dance Party. This year the theme was comic books. And as promised, Team Halloweenz, produced a 24-feet-by-24 feet comic book that towered behind the DJ booth which depicted Captain Halloween’s fight with the Full Moon Fang.

Every October, all major networks play horror film marathons, going through the same classics year after year. When people are asked what horror movies are the best to watch, the usual responses are “Friday the 13th” and “Halloween.” More recently, the answers have moved to “Insidious” and “Paranormal Activity.” Here are a few other horror films that are worth watching.
