The Plot: A Perfect Blend of Romance and Mystery
At its core, *A Halloween to Remember* combines Hallmark’s signature romance with a bit of intrigue. The story follows Sarah, a big-city event planner who heads back to her small hometown to help organize the annual Halloween festival.
Her return happens to line up with the 100th anniversary of a local legend—a haunted house and a long-lost love. That’s where things get interesting.
As Sarah gets swept up in festival prep, she meets Jake, a local historian who can’t resist a good ghost story. Together, they start unraveling the secrets of the haunted house.
Clues pile up, and so do the sparks between Sarah and Jake. Their chemistry is obvious, and the suspense keeps things moving.
A Cast to Fall For
The cast here really brings the story to life. Jessica Lowndes stars as Sarah, and if you’ve seen her in other Hallmark movies, you know she’s got just the right mix of warmth and determination.
Wes Brown plays Jake, and he’s got that easy charm that just works for a Halloween romance. He’s believable, and honestly, he makes those ghost stories sound a lot more interesting.
The supporting cast adds a lot, too. Sarah’s quirky best friend is all-in on the supernatural stuff, and Jake’s grandmother—she’s got secrets of her own and a sharp sense of humor.
Interactions between the cast feel genuine, which is half the fun. You can tell they’re having a good time, and it’s infectious.

One thing that stands out in *A Halloween to Remember* is the setting. The small town feels straight out of a postcard, and the Halloween touches are everywhere.
