What could be better than watching The Mummy with friends on Halloween night, a log crackling in the fireplace, hot mulled cider on the stove, popcorn and candy, and a pizza on the way? How about recuperating the next day with 4 more* classic horror films? It's gray outside and all I want to do is curl up in my chair with the remote and be afraid.

Count Dracula: To die, to be *really* dead, that must be glorious!
Mina Seward: Why, Count Dracula!
Count Dracula: There are far worse things awaiting man than death.

Henry Frankenstein: Look! It's moving. It's alive. It's alive... IT'S ALIVE!

*The 4th film is Phantom of the Opera, a masterpiece which deserves its own separate entry.
