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 dread it for several days beforehand. I'm pleased it is over for another year. I'm finding it hard to stay asleep tonight.

    I don't like the whole concept of threatening people to get sweets. It seems like extortion to me. I don't think it's a good message.

    I also didn't see how you could trust strangers. Going up to houses seemed risky, plus how do you know they haven't poisoned the sweets. This has happened, and one year a load of drugged ones were given out.

    When I was little you didn't have it, then it got imported. People didn't dress up , then youths started doing it. I remember one person getting killed after an argument. Then the rules were explained this was for little kids and you are supposed to go to places that are participating locally, e.g. by putting out a pumpkin or something, not going all over the place and menacing old people.

    I heard of some getting carrier bags worth of stuff. Rather than take a few sweets they take the whole lot.

    Insurance claims also go up. I would probably ban trick or treat.. If people want to do something, go to to fancy dress parties.

    I know people think I have a strange interpretation.

    it’s not strange at all and I completely agree with you there! Especially how well bratty the majority of kids are these days! I agree I do think trick or treating should be banned, there are other ways to have fun! Well we can rest easy for another year!
