Halogen lights are about 3200K. If you are using color neg film you need to take it to a lab with enough sense to correct for that. If you are using slide film, or can not find a lab that knows what they are doing, you need to use a filter, an 80A is recommended. B&W will work fine, though a perfectionist would derate the film a bit.
