Let's get spooky!
Trick or treating, spooky ghouls, foggy cemeteries, and Spooky scary skeletons, all things that we as Americans associate with Halloween. That grand old holiday at the end of October that you either love or you hate, desperately. I have never met someone who is just meh about Halloween. You are either all in or all out. I am definitely all in. Horror movies, costumes, scary stories, and the brisk chill on the autumn nights. Halloween is a custom, a holiday, a tradition, Halloween is a requirement in my household. It always has been. From the fake cemeteries and screaming portraits, and bloody decals stuck to every window, mirror, floorboards, and toilet seat. Halloween is not a small feat for my family. But Halloween looks different for everyone. Some people go all out, others just go trick or treating and put up some inflatables. Some use it as an excuse to go party dress up, and others might sit in a pumpkin patch all night waiting for the Great Pumpkin to stop by. But no matter how we choose to do Halloween, we can’t deny that we have turned it into a pop culture movement. But where did Halloween come from you might ask?
