The Halloween witch in rocking chairs is a spooky and iconic image often associated with the holiday. The rocking chair itself is a symbol of relaxation and comfort, but when combined with the dark and mystical persona of a witch, it takes on a whole new meaning. The rocking chair represents a sense of familiarity and nostalgia, evoking memories of simpler times and grandmotherly figures. However, when a witch is portrayed rocking in this chair, it adds an eerie and supernatural element to the scene. The rocking motion itself can be unsettling, as it suggests movement without an apparent cause or reason. The Halloween witch in rocking chairs is often depicted with a crooked and gnarled broomstick nearby, symbolizing her association with magic and flight.
Film exhibitor Akshaye Rathi believes Pathaan is likely to score anywhere between ₹ 150 crore to ₹ 200 crore over the first weekend. The fact that the film will get a five-day weekend, will only add to better numbers. “Advance bookings were meant to be open on the 20th of January but with anticipation, it opened on Thursday and the premium formats such as IMAX opened a day before. We are hoping that the movie will open with good numbers.”
Advance bookings were meant to be open on the 20th of January but with anticipation, it opened on Thursday and the premium formats such as IMAX opened a day before. Producer and film business analyst Girish Johar said, Box office is very dynamic and the numbers for advance booking for day one and first half of day two - all languages and all formats- are very good.
The Halloween witch in rocking chairs is often depicted with a crooked and gnarled broomstick nearby, symbolizing her association with magic and flight.

Her presence in the rocking chair suggests she is waiting patiently for someone, perhaps to cast a spell or cause mischief.
‘Avatar 2’ Tops $2.1B WW; ‘Pathaan’ Breaks Records For Bollywood; Chinese New Year Success Makes Hope Spring – International Box Office
UPDATED: The global and international box office had a wild weekend this session amid the continued advancement of Avatar: The Way of Water and a mega-comeback for Indian superstar Shah Rukh Khan, while China’s Lunar New Year period concluded as the market’s second-best ever.
Taking Avatar: The Way of Water first, it had already scaled up to become the No. 4 highest-grossing global release ever through Friday. Through Sunday, the James Cameron sci-fi adventure has reached an estimated $2.117B. It remains the fourth biggest movie on the worldwide chart, and should top Cameron’s own Titanic in the coming week or so to land at No. 3 (though there is an impending Valentine’s Day rerelease of Titanic afloat).

The international box office through today on WoW is estimated at $1.496B after a $42.4M seventh frame in 52 material markets. That was a drop of just 28% from last session. It remains the No. 4 biggest offshore release ever behind Avatar, Avengers: Endgame and Titanic.
The 20th Century Studios/Disney/Lightstorm sequel has become the highest-grossing film of all time in France ($137M), adding to a long list of smaller markets. It is the biggest studio title ever in India and Korea, notably.
In China, as the market exited the Chinese New Year period (see more below), Avatar: The Way of Water experienced a 46% decrease and has now grossed $237.1M. Behind China and France, Germany ($124.4M), Korea ($103.3M) and the UK ($85.7M) round out the Top 5.
In IMAX, WoW added $7.3M globally this frame for a worldwide cume of $239M, surpassing Avatar to become IMAX’s biggest first-run release ever. The overseas cume is $156.1M, the format’s top offshore result ever.
Turning to China, IMAX also enjoyed its best-ever Spring Festival with $34M, topping 2021 by 3% and 2022 by 54%. Grosses were led by The Wandering Earth II at $26.1M making it the third biggest IMAX release of all time during CNY. This was also the first time IMAX has ever had a $25M+ grossing Chinese film and Hollywood film (Way of Water) in Chinese cinemas at the same time.
China’s ushering in of the Year of the Rabbit ended on Friday with an overall estimated RMB 6.725B ($990M+) across the weeklong holiday period, according to Maoyan. This exceeded last year’s Spring Festival, making it the second biggest on record (even with slightly lower ticket prices), and brings encouragement for what’s ahead as the market continues to recover. (Recall that Disney/Marvel’s Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania is due for a day-and-date release there next month.)
A trio of movies delivered strong grosses and social sentiment, contrary to some previous years where one movie blasts out on day one only to flail afterwards. Zhang Yimou’s suspense comedy Full River Red led all play with RMB 2.6B ($383M) through Friday (it’s at $466M through Sunday and has a 9.6 score on Moayan). Next up was sci-fi sequel The Wandering Earth II with $319M ($377M through Sunday/9.4) and third place when to the latest Boonie Bears installment, Guardian Code at $110M ($136.3M through Sunday/9.3).
Yet, perhaps the biggest surprise came out of India this session as Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan blazed back after a lengthy hiatus from leading roles with action-packed espionage pic Pathaan. The movie has been on a tear, breaking opening day records for a Hindi title and now, through Saturday, grossing 429 crore ($52.6M) globally, including more than $20M from markets outside India. IMAX scored its best start ever for an Indian movie with $2.5M.
Estimates for Sunday have the Yash Raj Films production, which also stars Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, rolling up to upwards of 500 crore ($61.3M) global. In North America, it is estimated to be the biggest Bollywood opening weekend of all time while it has also set records in the UK. Note that Indian box office is not centralized and comes with a special set of challenges; we will update soonest.
In other action, Universal/DreamWorks Animation’s Puss In Boots: The Last Wish swashbuckled to a further $14.3M from 79 overseas markets. The international cume is approaching $200M with $193.3M through Sunday and the UK and Japan yet to open. Global is $334.1M. Holds continue to be strong. The Top 5 markets to date are Mexico ($19.6M), France ($19M), Germany ($13.7M), Australia ($12.7M) and Brazil ($11.7M).
Paramount’s Babylon on its sophomore weekend added $8.4M from 56 markets. The drop was -36% for an offshore cume of $26.4M. France is leading the charge with a 26% dip in the sophomore session to total $6.5M so far. After that, it gets murkier with the UK at $3.2M after two weekends, followed by Italy and Australia at $1.9M apiece and Spain at $1.5M. Korea, which has also been a fan of director Damien Chazelle, opens this week.
Universal/Blumhouse’s M3GAN danced up another $7.8M from 75 offshore markets this frame, leading to a $63.8M international cume and $146M global. She has surpassed the lifetimes of Happy Death Day and Halloween Ends overseas and is on par with Smile, and above Invisible Man and The Black Phone at the same point and just logged the second-biggest horror opening weekend of 2022/23 in Korea.

Reviews for "The Curse of the Creaking Chair: Unexplained Phenomena of the Halloween Witch"
1. Jessica - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the Halloween witch in rocking chairs. First of all, the quality of the product was extremely poor. The material used felt cheap and flimsy, and it's already started tearing after just a few uses. Additionally, the rocking motion was not smooth at all - it was jerky and uncomfortable. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone looking to add a spooky touch to their Halloween decor.
2. David - 1 star - The Halloween witch in rocking chairs was a complete waste of money. Not only did it arrive damaged, but it also didn't look anything like the photos advertised. The colors were dull and faded, and the overall design was not impressive at all. The rocking motion barely worked, and the sound effects were cheap and unconvincing. Save your money for something better.
3. Sarah - 2 stars - I had high hopes for the Halloween witch in rocking chairs, but it really fell short of my expectations. The sound effects were barely audible, even when the volume was turned up to the maximum. The chair itself was poorly constructed and didn't feel sturdy at all. On top of that, the witch's facial expression looked more comical than spooky. It was a disappointing purchase overall, and I wouldn't recommend it to others.
4. Michael - 1 star - The Halloween witch in rocking chairs was a total letdown. The product arrived late, and when I finally got it, it was missing several key parts. The instructions provided were confusing and poorly written, making it difficult to assemble. Even after managing to put it together, the rocking motion was uneven and made an annoying squeaky sound. I regret purchasing this item and would not buy from this company again.
5. Lauren - 2 stars - I was excited to have the Halloween witch in rocking chairs as part of my Halloween decor, but it quickly turned into a disappointment. The rocking motion was too slow and lacked any sort of realistic movement. The chair itself was uncomfortable to sit in, with awkward armrests that dug into your sides. The witch's appearance was not as detailed as shown in the photos, and overall, it just didn't have the spooky impact that I was hoping for. I would not recommend this product to others.
