Check back every Friday for Cheap Date: one weekend event or activity that won't break the bank.

This weekend's forecast is a little frightful, so why not stay in for the ultimate cheap date?

Check out Rotten Tomatoes' list of the 100 best horror movies of all time (just released on DVD: Cabin in the Woods) and curl up on the couch with a blanket.

Or, if kids in the room call for more fantasy than gore, check this list (E.T., Coraline or Harry Potter, anyone?).

(Bonus: Blogger Sarah Andrasik's recipe for Cookies n' Cream (Birthday!) Popcorn, pictured, is the perfect sweet treat to pair with a scary movie night.)

Where: Your house

When: After dark!

Price: Movies are free from the Shaker Heights Library (check the online catalogue here), or rent one for a couple bucks!
