Ever since I can remember I have LOVED Halloween. The costumes, candy, pumpkins, and fall food has always been the best part of my year. It is a time to be curled up and cozy while eating warm harvest foods and watching The Nightmare Before Christmas ten times with no judgment. Growing up everybody around me always loved Christmas or the 4th of July, but I always thought Halloween was the best, and this is why:
1. You can eat three packs of Reece's and nobody will bat an eye

Candy is SO GOOD. Let me tell you. Once fall hits and Halloween rolls around, we are ending the dieting and "bikini body" season, and to commemorate your last four months of Kale, you can binge on KitKat's and there is absolutely no judgment. Ration your candy, or don't. I'll be with you in the sugar rush for sure.
2. You have an excuse to watch spooky movies

For all of my spooky friends, this is absolute GOLD. All the creeps come out and everybody is finally down to watch all of the Halloween and scary movie classics. I mean common' you get to watch Nightmare Before Christmas, Hocus Pocus, AND Halloweentown. Nuff Said.
3. The best holiday decorations ever
You get to decorate your own house and enjoy everyone else's. You know when you were a kid, and you had that one neighbor that would go HAM for Halloween, yeah, they are the best. They always had awesome candy and the coolest costumes. There are even some families that have stay outside and scare people, how fun is that??
4. Haunted houses
It is the only time of year that you can scream until you pee yourself, walk around in a stranger's cornfield legally, and eat caramel apples all at the same time. Haunted houses/mazes are so fun. You can bring all of your friends, a new date, your family, the possibilities are endless. Whoever you choose to go with, it is always a good time.
5. You get to be whoever you want for a day
COSTUMES. You can make them, you can buy them, you can go as yourself and say that you are being an anarchist. There is really something for everyone. You know that Pre-Med major that you dropped? Be a doctor for a day, live the dream without the commitment (and the tuition) (and the blood).
6. You don't have to buy presents
No need to save up for 10 months to enjoy Halloween. No getting gifts and no giving gifts. You just get to spend time with your friends and family. Splurge as little or as much as you want to live your best life during all of the Fall festivities.
All around, Halloween is so much fun. For all of my Christian friends out there, don't feel weird, you are not the only one who is OBSESSED with all things fall (including Halloween). If you are someone who has never celebrated it, maybe give it a go. Halloween is my very favorite holiday and it might become yours too.
