Halloween Movie: A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting

Halloween is going to look different this year for most of us without the traditional trick or treating and parties that usually mark the night. But that doesn’t mean that we can’t have lots of spooky fun. A family movie night is a great way to have Halloween fun at home. If you have older kids, A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting, dropping on Netflix October 15, is going to be a great watch.

A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting

Kelly Ferguson (played by Tamara Smart) is a high school freshman who takes a babysitting gig for Jacob Zellman (Ian Ho) on Halloween night. Things don’t go as planned, and Jacob is kidnapped by monsters and a Boogeyman known as “The Grand Guignol” (yes, that’s Tom Felton!).

Kelly is quickly introduced to an international secret society of babysitters who protect kids with special powers from monsters. She teams up with the group that includes a tech genius, creature expert, and a potions master to defeat “The Grand Guignol,” glamorous witch, Peggy Drood, and a legion of mysterious monsters.

Check out the trailer:

This movie is based on the first book in Joe Ballarini’s A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting series.

Kids will love this Halloween adventure and parents will appreciate the messages about working together to overcome fears.

Check it out on Netflix on October 15.

About Jessica

Jessica Sleepless Mom Welcome sleepless moms! I haven’t had a full nights rest in over 2 years. Why, you ask? Because like you, juggling a toddler and a baby, working, and finding time for myself has left me sleepless, yet full of joy.

The inspiration for my blog came from tirelessly searching online for the answers new moms have, just to find out there is no right answer. My hope and vision is to create a community for moms to comment and share real life stories with one another when Google just isn’t cutting it. Whether you have specific questions or just want to comment and relate, this is your space to ask your fellow moms advice and know you’re not the only one that screws up from time to time.

I have assembled a well-rounded team that’s here to share their struggles and successes with you, as well as offer support in any way possible. This is an interactive site and we are here to cater to your mom needs. Please feel free to contact our team members with new topics you want us to tackle or even simple questions about motherhood. That’s what we are here for….
