3. The title of a poll suggestion should reflect the title of your list. I've updated the title of your thread to:
Poll Suggestion: Best Early Halloween/Horror Films

4. A poll suggestion consists of:
Succinct descriptive title
An optional introduction which explains the scope of your poll
An evocative question
A discussion link

5. Your poll title is fine.

6. Your poll suggestion probably doesn't need an introduction since your poll title give a good idea of the scope of your poll.

7. I recommend changing your statement:
Vote on the one you think is best!

To a question, such as:
Which of these pre-1940 horror films suitable for viewing on Halloween do you consider the best?

or

Which of these pre-1940 horror films suitable for viewing on Halloween do you would you most wish to view on Halloween?

Hi Vivien and welcome to the "poll board." : )

This is a great list of some great films and a very good poll. 

My vote would probably go to 'M.'

To increase interest in your poll, once it goes live, I'd suggest putting two fairly well-known movies in the first two slots, in case it is the featured poll or even ends up on the homepage. It's certainly not necessary to do this but if you want to increase the votes that the poll would get, it would help  because featured polls display the first two options on the poll page and polls on the homepage display the first five options. 

I know your list is already full, but you might consider dropping one of your current lesser-known films for Häxan. It's a very highly celebrated film.
