Kiernan Shipka, the talented young actress best 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 recently sat down with Entertainment Tonight to share her Halloween essentials while celebrating her latest project, a chilling campaign trailer for Hatch titled “Goodnight, Phone.”
In the short trailer, Shipka stars as a young woman who receives a mysterious phone call that turns her quiet evening into a terrifying nightmare. The eerie atmosphere and Shipka’s convincing performance have left fans on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating what’s to come.
But when it comes to Halloween, Shipka has a few must-haves that she simply can’t do without. From her favorite costumes to her go-to snacks, the 19-year-old actress spills the beans on what makes her Halloween celebrations truly special.
First and foremost, Shipka reveals that she loves to get creative with her costumes. “I love Halloween because it’s a chance to really express yourself and have fun,” she says. “I always try to come up with unique and interesting costumes, whether it’s something scary or funny.”
But for Shipka, it’s not just about the costume itself, but also the makeup and hair that complete the look. “I love experimenting with different makeup looks and hairstyles. It’s a chance to transform into a completely different character,” she adds.
When it comes to her Halloween essentials, Shipka also can’t do without some spooky decorations. “I love decorating my house with creepy cobwebs, pumpkins, and candles. It really sets the mood for a spooky night,” she says.
And while she loves all things scary, Shipka also enjoys indulging in some sweet treats during Halloween. “I have a major sweet tooth, so I always make sure to have plenty of candy on hand. It’s the perfect excuse to indulge in all my favorite treats,” she laughs.
But beyond the costumes, decorations, and snacks, Shipka’s Halloween celebrations wouldn’t be complete without some classic horror movies. “I love watching scary movies on Halloween. It’s a tradition for me and my friends to have a movie marathon and scare ourselves silly,” she shares.
Shipka also reveals that she’s a huge fan of Halloween-themed music. “I have a playlist of spooky songs that I love to listen to during the Halloween season. It really gets me in the mood for all the festivities,” she says.
But for Shipka, Halloween is not just about dressing up and having fun. It’s also a time to give back and help those in need. “I always make sure to participate in charity events during Halloween. It’s important to remember to give back and help those who are less fortunate,” she says.
As for her upcoming project, Shipka couldn’t be more excited to be a part of Hatch’s “Goodnight, Phone” campaign. “It was such a fun and thrilling experience shooting the trailer. I can’t wait for everyone to see it,” she says.
Shipka’s enthusiasm and passion for Halloween are truly infectious, and it’s clear that she has a deep love for the holiday. Her Halloween essentials reflect her creativity, love for all things spooky, and her kind heart.
As we eagerly await the release of “Goodnight, Phone,” we can take inspiration from Shipka and make the most of this Halloween season with our own unique costumes, decorations, and charitable acts. After all, as Kiernan Shipka reminds us, Halloween is all about having fun and spreading joy.
