From Hollywood to Home: Black Voices in Entertainment
Trick or treat! Kiernan Shipka has become the Halloween queen thanks to her roles in thrillers like Totally Killer, Longlegs, The Silence, and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and more.
To celebrate the 2025 spooky season, the actress told ET exactly how she’s getting into the spirit.
“My Halloween must-haves include watching and rewatching a long list of horror films, going to a haunted house or two, eating candy, and hitting a few parties on the big night. … I always like dressing up and I love decorations,” she shared.
When it comes to her look, Shipka likes to make the night one to remember with a creative get-up.
“Good drinks, good music, and committed costumes make it a great party,” she spilled.
Sometimes my costume is planned out and sometimes it’s last minute. … Usually, the idea will just come to me at a random moment, and I write it down so that I remember when Halloween time approaches,” she added.
This time around? I have a costume ready and it’s very hair and makeup focused.”Hatch
Ahead of the celebrations, though, the star makes sure she’s well-rested without any sleepless scaries.
Shipka teamed up with Hatch for their eerie new campaign trailer, Goodnight, Phone, which reminds everyone to log off before bed.
“Good sleep is so important. When I don’t get enough, I really feel it. I remind myself that I want to feel excited and present during a big event, so getting a good night’s sleep beforehand is a non-negotiable,” she said.
To ensure a restful evening, the Chicago, Illinois native relies on a few simple nighttime must-haves.
“Before bed, I usually have some sort of snack. I like to review my day and make a to-do list for the next one, and then I’ll go ahead and do my skincare and take a little magnesium gummy.
She then turns on Hatch’s Restore sleep clock to start her Unwind routine, complete with soothing sounds and relaxing lights.
“Maintaining this nightly ritual helps my brain recognize that it’s time to relax, and makes falling asleep not only a breeze, but also just a really nice experience. … I’ve also been loving the seasonal bedtime stories on my Hatch+, and saw they added The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, so I’m ready to get into it.”
