With summer ending and fall beginning, there are some of us that look forward to that chillier weather and those moments when we can pull out our sweaters and boots.

But the most appealing thing to me about fall? Halloween! As someone who loves a good horror movie, attending corn mazes, and everything related to pumpkins, I wanted to share with others how I cope with having to wait so many months for my favorite holiday.

As a student who is on her laptop all too much, the one site I am always turning to is YouTube. During these months leading up to Halloween, I spend my time watching hauls, decoration videos, and everything else pertaining to the spook-tacular month of October. Even if the videos are older or just from last year, I still get myself in the Autumn mood by watching them!

Here are a few of my faves:

1. Michelle Phan

When I first discovered Phan, I was just another girl searching on the internet for makeup tutorials. When I realized that she also did Halloween makeup and costume ideas, I was hooked! Her videos and quality are absolutely amazing, Halloween inspired or not. If you are looking to go all out this year, Phan is your girl.

2. Pinkstylist

Charlie Short, also known as Pinkstylist, has been one of my favorite makeup artists on YouTube since I created my account. His costume makeup is on point, taking you step by step on how to put on the makeup, how he recreates these characters, and even makes videos of scaring people on Omegle with the creepier costumes. Again, if your looking to dress to impress this Halloween check him out!

3. Sarah Hawkinson

Upon finding her channel, I knew I wanted to be like her. Hawkinson's channel represents her love for horror, grunge, and a multitude of band t-shirts. What made her even more awesome was her discussions on horror movies and her hauls on Halloween decor. It wasn't until I found her that I felt that it was OK to buy skulls and such off the Halloween racks and keep them in my normal room decor. She also has makeup and costume tutorials, both are easy to follow and recreate on your own. Her other channel, PossessedbyHorror, is one where she also goes through horror movies and gives her reactions and thoughts on them.

4. Halloween Happy

Sam is a new addition to my faves list after just recently stumbling upon her videos in the "Videos you might like" section. I love her positivity and love for Halloween. Sam has many hauls and decorations that she shares, as well as guides you through her local stores in order to show you what to expect for when you go out to shop. Her relationship with 'Miles' also keeps me entertained!

5. Grav3yard Girl

Bunny Meyer, aka. Swamp Queen, aka. Grav3yard Girl, is one of the more free-spirited YouTubers that I love to watch. With such a quirky personality and a love for the odd and strange, she has to be the one I always come back to every year for Halloween ideas. She does the makeup, the costumes, the hauls, and she even takes you through her preparation for her own yard decorating and treat bags she gives away. Bunny is your girl of you want to have a fun time during this holiday.

Even though we are in the beginning of September, there is always room to get ready for October. If you love weird, creepy, spooky, or just general fun, Halloween is that perfect time of year for awesome costumes and amazing treats.

I can't wait!
