Halloween

Elfilis

Ok so I have decided I’ll stick around a little longer but will probably take a break from here soon. For now though I’ll post about Halloween! Jack o lantern  

Ok so I’m not a lover of the event if I’m honest but as I’ve got older I have somewhat got into it a little bit more. Now I’m in my flat I don’t have to worry about the trick or treaters lol! Think my mum is going to come around to mine as well to avoid them lol! 

How am I going to celebrate it? I will no doubt be playing Luigi’s mansion 3, hopefully the last level on Simpsons hit and run and of course play ACNH Halloween event despite the fact I only have five villagers on my island right now and like one pumpkin decoration on the island (I only started the island on the 10th lol). Might also watch some SpongeBob episodes which are Halloween themed too. The only decorations in my flat are two little light up metal pumpkins which once had Halloween shortbreads in. But I ate them! I can’t get over how much effort people have actually gone into decorating their houses and front yards though. Do hope this doesn’t take over Christmas ha!

So what you do plan for Halloween? Do you like it? Do you not care for it? Feel free to let me know!

  • I used to get sweets for trick or treaters, but as most years no-one comes around I don't bother any more.

    Some years ago I did make a six foot long female black widow spider (mostly anatomically correct and 50 times actual size) for someone I knew who was organising a Halloween party for the children at the local army camp - I still have the spider hung up in the corner of my library.

    Oh wow! That spider would freak my mum out no doubt as she hates even small spiders. She hates this time of year and it’s worse now there are people getting big furry spiders and tarantula decorations for outside. I think the only way you could get me to hold one of those decorations is to give them like cute eyes and faces but that wouldn’t even help my mum I don’t think. 

    We used to get sweets for trick or treaters as well when I was younger but hardly anyone came and one year we had like three bigger bags of various sweets and chocolates and we only had one group of trick or treaters who were from my school so we just gave them all the chocolates and sweets. But the year later when we didn’t get any sweets or that we ended up getting loads of trick or treaters so we had to ignore the door bells and knocks etc. 

    Think my mum is coming to see me to get away from it all on Friday as the outside lights come on automatically so she can see where she is going in the dark and don’t think they can be turned off so yeah.
