As Halloween night comes closer and closer, many people are looking for safer alternatives to traditional spooky celebrations. Instead of spending the night worried about staying six feet apart from strangers at a party, staying in can be more fun. Get in your favorite Halloween-themed pjs and huddle up with your friends to watch some of my favorite killer shows on Netflix.

Black Mirror

IMDb

Black Mirror is the perfect show to watch for people who struggle to finish long series (like me). Each episode is close to an hour long, but follows a plot that is unique and full of mind-bending thrills. The overlying theme for each story has to do with the negative effect of social media and technology on society. Get ready to have your mind blown.

American Horror Story

Popsugar

The perfect fit for Halloween, American Horror Story speaks for itself. The first season, titled Murder House, tells the story of a family looking for a new start who's dark secrets become exposed as the house begins to haunt them. The characters are complex and eerie and the finale will have you wanting to rewatch the whole season from start to finish.

Scream (TV Series)

Digital Spy

This series builds on the original iconic movie series, Scream. Set in present day, a group of kids from a small town become immersed in a mystery surrounding a killer who mimics a murderer from the past. For fans of shows like Riverdale or Scream Queens, the show is a must see.

The Twilight Zone

Forbes

The original Twilight Zone series aired from 1959-1964, but is still one of my all time favorites (thank you Netflix). Along with its numerous awards and nominations while on the air, the show is special because each episode reveals an essential truth about humanity. The show was so popular at the time that numerous spin-offs and movies have been created in commemoration, and it still has a pretty large fan-base to this day.

Stranger Things

Insider

If you haven't already seen Stranger Things... you must be living under a rock. Halloween is the perfect time to rewatch some of your favorite episodes from this family friendly "horror" show, or see what all the hype is about for the first time. Either way, the storyline will keep you entertained and give you just enough Halloween vibes

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
