Candace Cameron Bure reveals why she doesn’t let horror movies in her home

Ryan Brennan | June 16, 2025

Candace Cameron Bure believes some portals are meant to stay closed. 

The 49-year-old “Full House” alum took to her “The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast” June 10 to reveal the spiritual reason why she doesn’t let her children watch scary movies inside her home. 

And it all boils down to her belief that the movie is “opening up a portal” of negativity inside the home.

“In our house as a mom, I feel like you guys make fun of me when I talk about (it),” Bure said to her son, Lev Valerievich, and Pastor Jonathan Pokluda — both of whom were featured as guests on the episode. 

Bure goes on to detail what she means by the word “portal.” 

“Like if you’re watching this, or you’re playing this video game, or whatever, that’s a portal that could let stuff inside our home,” she explained, per Entertainment Weekly

“I don’t even want someone watching a scary movie in our house on the TV, because to me, that’s just a portal,” she argued — further adding that her three kids “laugh at me because of the portal.” 

“They make fun of me all the time,” she continued. 

Bure, who has been open about her Christian faith in the past, shares three kids — Natasha, 26, Lev, 25, and Maksim, 23 — with her husband, former NHL player Valeri Bure. 

While she wasn’t shy about her “portal” belief, she did acknowledge the irony in her fear. 

"Listen, I'm in the film industry," she added, per Variety. "I understand how it all works. I know that movie has a crew of 200 people, and they're lighting it, and they're adding the sound effects, and it's makeup.” 

“However, there's still something that can be incredibly demonic while they've made it,” she argued. 

Bure takes her ‘portal’ theory one step further

Bure’s ‘portal’ comment sparked quite a debate online — with some fans trolling and others defending. 

“Spiritual wisdom. To dwell on dark things invites dark thoughts. It also desensitizes us,” one fan wrote in an Instagram comment

“She's not wrong. TV, games and Internet are full of propaganda that influences young and old minds,” another fan wrote under an X post by Variety. 

Other fans were quick to disagree with Bure’s belief. 

“2025 and these people literally haven’t updated their world view since the dark ages,” one fan wrote on Instagram, while another fan joked, “Thanks for reminding me that we’re not soulmates.”

Elsewhere in the podcast episode, we learned that Bure’s belief doesn’t end with scary movies. 

In fact, she believes “portals” can open for products, too. 

“That just reminded me like you posted something a while back about Liquid Death,” she said to Pokluda. “You’re like, ‘Do you want to buy a product that is literally being cursed as it’s going out into distribution?'”

Liquid Death is a water brand launched in 2019 that markets itself with an edgy, metal-inspired aesthetic, packaged in tallboy aluminum cans.

Yet, no matter how good the water might be, its name gets a heavy “no” from Bure.
