October is a month when the trees continue to shed their leaves rapidly, and the cold weather and rains start to increase. But perhaps the most important is Halloween. Although Halloween, celebrated on October 31st, coincides with the last day of October, it is identified with this month and is celebrated by many countries today. Although it seems that children usually look forward to this holiday, Halloween also provides a lot of excitement for adults and allows them to stay and feel children for a day. Let’s talk to you about what we can do for Halloween. Here are some suggestions I have prepared for you.

1. Symbol of Halloween: Pumpkin

The first thing you can do when preparing for Halloween is to buy a pumpkin. You must first clean the inside of this pumpkin you bought and then carving this. The shape you will give the pumpkin afterward is up to your imagination. Whether you draw a smiley face on a pumpkin, or a sad, surprised, angry face… The last step to get your pumpkin ready is to put a candle inside your pumpkin and light it. And voila, Jack O’Lanterns is ready. This pumpkin you have prepared serves both as a decorative accessory and provides lighting.

2. Awesome Flavors of Halloween: Pumpkin Spice Latte and Pumpkin Pie

We’re not done with the pumpkin yet. Pumpkin spice latte, which is specially made for this holiday in cafes, is very popular. In this holiday where you will see pumpkins everywhere, you should definitely try the pumpkin pie, which you can easily prepare at home. If you don’t want to make it at home, don’t worry, everywhere is brimming with this dessert.

3. Costumes and Makeup

We have come to perhaps the most fun part of Halloween. Halloween is like a festival that creates a famous parade in the streets. People who have chosen iconic and popular characters of this year as their costumes will both scare you and feast your eyes. You can also prepare your own costume by looking at what a celebrity is wearing and enrich your costume with your accessories. And don’t forget to make up for suit your costume.

4. Trick or Treat

Halloween, the only holiday where families can allow their children to eat this much candy, is a holiday where children go door-to-door collecting candy, making jokes, and scaring anyone they come across. Children who ask the question of trick or treat to the people who meet them in the houses they visit, can make their jokes, or take their candies and go according to the answer they get.

5. Visiting Cemeteries and Haunted Houses

It is more likely to go to these places, which we normally would not want to go because we are afraid, on Halloween. Who knows, maybe the costumes we wear gain us self-confidence and our fear decrease as we go with a large group. How would you like to organize a tour to haunted houses and cemeteries near where you live this year?

6. Time to Watch Horror and Thriller Movies

I have found horror movies that are suitable for the spirit of Halloween, especially for those who do not want to go out or who want to evaluate their time after going out. Halloween, Trick ‘r Treat, The Purge, A Quiet Place, The Omen… Let’s see how many of them you can watch till the end.

7. Halloween Cookies

Halloween can give you a lot of inspiration to decorate your cookies in a variety of ways. You can make ghost cookies, spider cookies, Jack-o’-lantern cookies, monster cookies… This activity creates a time where you can spend quality time both alone and with your children.
