1. These guys start showing up everywhere

If you like candy corn, I shall be the first to inform you that you have been severely misled.

2. It's socially acceptable for people to dress up like fictional characters, since they're not at a convention

3. Your calendar looks similar to this:

4. The dead reawaken to wander the earth

Whether they be witches, ghosts, zombies, vampires, etc.

5. It is the 13th Night of the 13 Nights of Halloween

10. This website says "Yes"
