Spooky movie marathon

You can’t go through this month without watching some scary movies. Pick some of your favorite flicks to put on. It may not be a bad idea to have a friend come over in case you get a little too spooked.

A murder mystery is when an event is hosted and a “murder” occurs. All of the people at the party play a character and the attendees have to investigate to solve the crime. It’s a unique way to enjoy your day.

Tell ghost stories

Gather all of your friends and when it’s late at night. Tell your best ghost stories. Don’t forget the flashlights in case something goes bump in the night.

Make pumpkin seeds

Have a nice little healthy snack by making homemade pumpkin seeds. Save the seeds from when you carve pumpkins. Clean them up and boil them for 5 minutes. Then, you pat them dry, add oil, and season them how you like. Put them on parchment paper and bake at 350 degrees farenheit for approximately 10-20 minutes. They’re done when they are golden on the edges. Enjoy!

Eat candy

The candy doesn’t have to be just for the kids. Enjoy your favorite treats.

Spook your neighbors

A nice little thing to do is to spook your neighbor. This is a tradition where you put together a small goodie bag for your neighbors and leave it on their doorsteps. They will appreciate the nice gesture.

Have fun at the pumpkin patch

There’s only one way that you should be getting your pumpkins and that is by going to a local pumpkin patch. Support them by buying a few pumpkins, partaking in their activities, and spreading the word of your experience.
