In the animated realm, Halloween is a great time to enjoy a spooky slice of horror with a healthy dose of humor, horror and fantasy all wrapped up in a nice neat candy-colored bow. The horror genre can easily evoke fear, but horror anime can show a different kind of horror, a horror that is more cerebral and less visceral. It can also show a horror that is a little more human in the way it portrays the human mind in a disturbed state.

You know what’s better than watching horror or anime films? Watching it with friends, especially if you’ve never seen said films before. This Halloween, here are 25 anime films you can watch with friends, and enjoy along with a (not scary) Halloween theme.

Halloween is coming. The time of year when everyone with a brain wants to be wearing a costume. The time of year when everyone with a brain is trying to think of the scariest costumes they can think of. The time of year when people with a brain start to think about the anime they watch during the year. Why not combine all three of those things? It’s pretty simple. If you want to be scared, you watch anime. If you want to be smart, you watch anime that is gonna make you smart. And if you want to be both, you watch anime that is gonna scare you and make you smart at the same time.

People typically prepare something frightening to watch around Halloween since it is such an essential aspect of culture and has really impacted the horror genre. To assist you in making your decision, we’ve compiled a list of the top 25 anime series, films, and/or episodes to watch throughout the Halloween season and on Halloween itself.
