Hollywood may be consistently spooked by the dip in movie attendance, but the horror genre has become a big bag of candy, especially around Halloween.
If the summer belongs to the big blockbuster action movies and December is for Oscar-worthy films, then October - and, increasingly, much of fall - is for ghouls and maniacs and things that go "bump" at the box office.
