Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

It’s Halloween time again and you’ve decided that this year, instead of joining the fancy dress shop scramble for the last of the white face paint, you’ll be staying in with a scary movie.

Choosing what to watch can be a dilemma with such a huge range of horror films on offer, so it’s worth considering what you actually enjoy and what will do nothing but give you nightmares for the next month.

Not everyone can stomach the sight of someone being hacked to death, blood spraying everywhere, while others are only truly terrified by the more psychological thrillers.

Some people hate nothing more than a seemingly innocent child harbouring a secret desire to kill and if you’re anything like us, it’s jump scares that really get your heart pounding.

Take our personality quiz to find your perfect movie match:

If you want to head out rather than be terrified in your own home, it is worth looking up whether cinemas near you are putting on any Halloween screenings. Or if you're hosting a party, our spooky party playlist will help take some of the pressure off. Happy Halloween!
