I asked this while back, but I'm in need of new programs again. Any genre is fine, and I love drama Japanese movie and suggestions. Manga works too. But when it comes to anime, I prefer something called, but I do not mind showing subtitles. It's just more difficult to multi-task while watching. I have read / seen the following: Aishiteruze Baby Fruits Basket Inuyasha Naruto Ouran MeruPuri Azumanga Diaoh High School Host Club Ultra Maniac Vampire Knight Death Note Bleach Absolute Boyfriend Hana-Kimi [manga and drama] godson Peach Fuzz snow Cain Saga Millennium Knight of the Alliance The Vampire Swan Dance Foribbiden DNAngel Doll Backstage Prince Beauty Pop Chibi Vampire Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories Shugo Chara Trinity Blood Ark!

I love being scared silly and a spine tingling ghost movie works for me. Of all the top horror movies out there with genres like ; vampires, zombies, killer tomatoes, the eerie, transparent ghoul that floats around the room and whispering warnings to you in the dark, ghost movies are the best!
The admiration for a good ghost movie came about for me at a tender young age.... thanks to two cousins!
It was a crisp fall day when I, at an impressionable age of eight or nine was dropped off at my grandparent's farm for a weekend stay.
My bratty two older cousins were also staying there. For sleeping, the three of us shared two feather mattress beds in the open basement of the old farmhouse.
That's where I experienced my first ghost story. In the silent darkness my cousins told me an eerie, spine tingling story that "actually" happened not too far away. A tale worthy of being one of the top horror movies ever. They began in detail, a story about a kid, my age, getting his head chopped in half with an ax by his crazy grandfather. The poor ghoulish kid with half a bloody head now roams the countryside.
Never slept a wink that night. In fact it was a good while before I slept at my grandparent's farmhouse again.
Halloween is here, too much of that vampire genre! That is why this article is about the eeriest, scariest ghost movies.... thirteen of them! Put in chronological order from oldest to newest and worth watching in this order. Notice how the older ghost movies were remade!
1) The Uninvited (1944)
A brother and sister move into an old seaside mansion. Bought very cheaply and came with a sinister past is now haunted.
Starring: Ray Milland, Ruth Hussey, Donald Crisp, Gail Russell.
2009 - The new ghost movie has a very different storyline. Hair standing straight scary never the less.
Starring: Emily Browning, David Strathaim, Elizabeth Banks.
2) House On Haunted Hill (1959)
Eccentric multimillionaire and his wife invite five unrelated strangers to a huge, isolated mansion. They offer 10,000 dollars to each guest if they make it through the night (12 hours). All five arrive by hearse and in the morning all five will be leaving by hearse, one-way or the other.
Starring: Vincent Price, Carol Ohmart, Richard Long.
The new 1999 movie has the same story line, slightly altered like one million dollars instead of 10,000 and of course better special effects.
Starring: Geoffrey Rush, Famke Janssen, Taye Diggs, Chris Katten.
3)13 Ghosts (1960)
Out of all the top horror movies this ghost movie is one of the best. Uncle Zorba, an occultist, wills a huge unusual house to his needy nephew Cyrus and his family. This house came with three surprises; treasure, thirteen ghosts and special goggles to see these ghosts.
Starring: Charles Herbert, Donald Woods, Jo Morrow.
2001 version has the same story line, with creative well done effects and Cyrus is the uncle's name.
Starring: Tony Shalhoub, Shannon Elizabeth, F. Murray Abraham.
4) Carnival Of Souls (1962)
A ghostly man appears through mirrors at first only to an innocent church organist. Did someone or something at the deserted carnival prompt this ghoulish image which keeps appearing to this poor girl? Even though this is a low budget movie it still merits a decent level on the fright meter.
One hundred years ago a ship carrying lepers purposely crashed drowning all on board. Now the ghoulish lepers are back for revenge and coming through the fog. John Carpenter can certainly put together a great ghost movie, not only once but twice.
Starring: Adrienne Barbeau, Jamie Lee Curtis, John Houseman.
2005- Very similar to the 1980 version but with better effects. Mr. Carpenter has also become more successful in the last twenty five years.
Starring: Tom Welling, Maggie Grace, Selma Blair.
7) Witchboard (1986)
College students start playing with an Ouija board that becomes evil. Meanwhile they were all thinking it was the spirit of a nice ten year old boy.
Halloween 1962, Frank a lad witnesses the ghost of a young girl and the eerie ghost of the man who murdered her. Young Frank is now being stalked by this ghoulish man.
Starring: Lukas Haas, Len Cariou, Katherine Helmond.
9) The Sixth Sense (1999)
In this subtle ghost movie, nine-year old Cole Sear can see, hear and talk to dead people right after they pass on. Dr. Crowe, a child psychologist tries to help Cole with these...hallucinations. I love movies that have a good twist ending and this is one of them. Definitely one of the top horror movies.
Starring: Bruce Willis, Haley Joel Osment, Toni Collette.
10) The St. Francisville Experiment (1999)
In a little town in Louisianna is a known haunted house. The house is haunted by the ghosts of slaves who died enduring horrible torture. Four people are unprepared for the horrors that are about to occur.
Starring: Tim Baldini, Madison Charap, Paul Palmer.
11) What Lies Beneath (2000)
The wife of an university scientist begins to see apparitions. Her husband thinks that she is nuts until he sees the images for himself. Now, they must both uncover the truth and find out what lies beneath.
Starring: Michelle Pfeiffer, Katharine Towne, James Remar.
12) Ghost Ship (2002)
This is a ‘better get ready to hang on to something' ghost movie. I would consider this as one of the top horror movies. A 1962 elite passenger ship was suddenly found floating adrift by a salvage crew, forty years later. Old, rusted, deserted, full of gold and ghosts.
Starring: Gabriel Byrne, Julianna Margulies, Ron Eldard, Isaiah Washington.
13) The Ring (2002)
A strange video tape with eerie footage that seems to kill the viewer in seven days. Seconds after the video ends, a phone call, one week later you die a horrible death. Originally a 1998 Japanese film called ‘Ringu". I had to add this flick to the top horror movies list.
Starring: Naomi Watts, Martin Henderson, David Dorfman, Jane Alexander.
You want to be frightened this Halloween season? My recommendation for a great scary ghost movie is any one of these thirteen films. They are all worthy to be on the ‘top horror movies' list.
So after the costumed kids are done ringing your doorbell and threatening you for treats, grab a pillow to hang on to, turn off all the lights and put on one of these scary movies. Great way to end Halloween.
Happy Halloween, Cinema Serge.

About the Author
I am a freelance writer on subjects of interest, mostly in the cinematic world. Colorful views and comments by delving deep into all film genres and movie productions of old and new.
I know there have been a lot of people asking this, but my school has blocked every proxy site I could find. Does anyone know any more recent U other sites / tips / ways to reach MySpace, vampire, monsters and other social services? Proxies networking sites really appreciate help: FYI If you go to tell me how not to use MySpace to school anyway, because I have to study, even response. Obviously, this is my choice, and I have all my work done. So do not worry.
For me, I thought that "Hamilton" is the best movie vampire of all time. You do not know that the Hamilton family are vampires until the end of the film. And the main character's son, discovers that he is a vampire and allow this horrible scream and just gives me chills. ^ - ^ Also, the fangs in the movie are incredibly wickedly awesome! : D What the best vampire movies for you?
Oh Brad ... I do not like Hamilton's exactly the reason that it seems like it. One of us must be very wrong like in the movies. LOL. I much prefer the Underworld and Blade series of my vampire action. I want the vampires to be horrible, evil murderers. No sympathetic teens do not even know who / what they are. I guess to each his own. That's what makes life great. Something for everyone.
Is the Cirque du Freak: The Vampire assistant film on all the books?
I wonder why the film is named after the second book of f instead of the first book so I thought it would be like the movie Lemony Snickett about books when you just put all the books on film. My another thought was that, from Twilight, The House of Night, and other vampire books / movies are getting attention so his name assistant vampire.
No, only the first 3 books. (A living nightmare, The Vampire's Assistant and Tunnels of blood).
