Kiernan Shipka, the talented young actress known for her role as Sabrina Spellman in Netflix’s hit series “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,” is no stranger to the spooky season. With Halloween just around the corner, Shipka is gearing up for the holiday in style. In a recent interview with ET, she shared her Halloween essentials while celebrating her chilling Hatch campaign trailer, “Goodnight, Phone.”
Shipka, who has been a fan of Halloween since she was a child, revealed that her love for the holiday has only grown over the years. “I’ve always loved Halloween. It’s such a fun time to dress up and be someone else for a night,” she said. “But as I’ve gotten older, I’ve also come to appreciate the spooky and eerie side of the holiday.”
When it comes to her Halloween essentials, Shipka believes that it’s all about the details. “I love to go all out with my costumes and makeup, but it’s the little things that really make a difference,” she shared. “From creepy accessories to eerie music, these are the things that really set the mood for a perfect Halloween.”
One of Shipka’s must-haves for Halloween is a good playlist. “Music is such an important part of setting the mood for any occasion, and Halloween is no different,” she explained. “I love to create a playlist with a mix of spooky songs and classic Halloween tunes. It really gets me in the spirit.”
Another essential for Shipka is a good horror movie. “I’m a huge horror movie fan, so Halloween is the perfect time to indulge in some scary films,” she said. “I always make sure to have a few of my favorites on hand, like ‘Hocus Pocus’ and ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas.’ But I also love discovering new horror movies and adding them to my list.”
Shipka also shared that she loves to decorate her home for Halloween. “I think it’s important to create a spooky atmosphere, even if you’re not having a big party,” she said. “I like to add some cobwebs, pumpkins, and other creepy decorations around my house to really get into the Halloween spirit.”
But perhaps the most important Halloween essential for Shipka is a good costume. “I love to get creative with my costumes and really go all out,” she said. “I usually start planning my costume months in advance and put a lot of thought into it. It’s always so much fun to see everyone’s costumes on Halloween night.”
Shipka’s love for Halloween is not just limited to dressing up and celebrating with friends. She also enjoys giving back during this time of year. “I think it’s important to remember those who may not have the opportunity to celebrate Halloween,” she shared. “I like to volunteer at local charities and events that bring joy to children and families during this holiday.”
As for her chilling Hatch campaign trailer, “Goodnight, Phone,” Shipka is excited to be a part of it. “I love working with Hatch and being a part of this campaign,” she said. “The trailer is so eerie and perfectly captures the Halloween spirit. I can’t wait for everyone to see it.”
In the trailer, Shipka plays a young woman who is terrorized by her phone on Halloween night. “It was such a fun and unique concept, and I had a blast filming it,” she shared. “I think it will definitely give people a good scare and get them in the mood for Halloween.”
Shipka’s Halloween essentials are a perfect mix of spooky and fun, just like the holiday itself. With her love for Halloween and her chilling Hatch campaign, she is sure to have a memorable and thrilling Halloween this year. So, take a cue from Shipka and make sure to have your own Halloween essentials ready for a spooktacular night. Happy Halloween!
