Halloween is a time for people to get together to have some fun, no matter what they will be doing. However, if you are one of those people that doesn't really have any plans as to what one can do for this holiday, then there's no need to worry. There are a few ideas that I have in mind that one could possibly refer to when one is thinking of ideas for what they can do for the season of Halloween.

1. Go to A Haunted House

If you are one of those types of people that doesn't like everything horror, then this might not be the best idea for you. Since there are those people that does love being scared by some of the basic horror tropes, then try going to a haunted house. There are various of them that are located around a certain area that you live that may or may not have a specific theme. Like a haunted house may be a corn maze that has various horror themes to it while another one may be a house that is filled with chainsaw massacres. Not sure which one is which because I rarely go to haunted houses, but when I do, I makes sure that I go with a group of friends. I know that my friends will "protect" me and I'll have someone to hang on to for when I get scared. I haven't been to one in a while, but they can be as fun or as scary as you want them to be, depending on how you're feeling.

2. Go to Six Flags Fright Fest

Another close second to going to a haunted house is going to Six Flags Great America because every year, they hose Fright Fest. During the fall, Six Flags is open on the weekends and the park turns into a giant place for people to walk around where each section is based on a specific theme. Whether it would be clowns or chainsaw massacres, there is a chance that one will get scared by a park person that is dressed up in a scary person. Besides that happening throughout the entire park, park visitors can enjoy the going on the roller coasters that are sure to give them thrills and chills. It's always fun to go with a group of friends because you are ensure to have a fun time with the people that you choose to spend the day with.

3. Watch Some Films

There is nothing wrong with just enjoying your Halloween by watching some classic films that take place around Halloween. Whether it would be horror films such as Halloween and Friday the 13th or it could be fun Halloween movies such as Halloween Town and Hocus Pocus, it's nice to watch some classic films. I know that I enjoy watching Hocus Pocus and the Nightmare Before Christmas because I am not a big horror film kind of person. If you are the person who does like to watch horror films, then there is nothing stopping you from enjoying some of those films. You can gather up some of your friends, pop some corn, sit back, relax and enjoy some films that involve the theme of Halloween.

4. Throw A Party

In the spirit of holidays, the big ones usually have parties that some people that we know can host. Whether it would be a costume party, a dance party or some other party that involves Halloween, then it's more than likely that it will be a fun time. There will be fun music, games and great company that is ensure to make the party a fun one to attend. Who knows what will be in store at this party? There is only one way for you to find out because parties are a fun thing to attend, especially when some of your friends are gong to be attending as well.

5. There's Nothing Wrong With Trick or Treating

Even though some of us are getting older, I don't think that there's anything wrong with you and a few of your friends dressing up and actually going trick or treating. Not only do you get to dress up in fun costumes and get candy, but you also get to have fun with your friends in a cool way. It seems that in the past, even as I got older, I found myself doing a little bit of trick or treating because the candy is the one other thing that I love about Halloween.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
