Halloween is one of my favorite holidays (besides Christmas which is my ultimate fav), and getting into the spirit of a holiday is one of the best parts. Where I live, we've been having a fall heat wave, as I'm writing this I am currently outside basking in the 74 degree weather, not very ideal for fall and Halloween. When I think of Halloween, I think of spooky walks and scary movies and brisk fall weather, not shorts and t shirts. So here are a few things you can do to get into the Halloween spirit!
1. Eat Caramel Apples
This is an absolute MUST for me around Halloween. They're so delicious, they come with so many different toppings and they remind you that it's fall!
2. Watch Scary Movies!
If you're not into horror movies than this step isn't for you but for those who do, YAAAAS. I love watching all the Halloween movies, as well as classics like BeetleJuice (my personal favorite), Hocus Pocus, and Halloween Town! Grab some blankets, kill the lights and enjoy!
3. Carve Pumpkins
Carving pumpkins is a tradition in my house. We go to a pumpkin patch, pick the ones we like the best, then take them home and carve them while we roast the seeds. It's the best DYI decoration for Halloween night, plus it's super fun!
4. Go on a Haunted Hay Ride or to a Haunted House
Nothing gets you into the holiday spirit like getting the life scared out of you! Haunted Houses can be fun, if you like them, but it's also fun to watch the people afraid if you aren't into getting scared!
5. Get Dressed Up and Eat Candy
Whether you're going to a college party or simply going trick or treating, have fun! You're never too old to enjoy Halloween!
