Guys it’s going down. Cue the wolf howls, ghosts, zombies, thunder, pumpkins, witches, skeletons and the divine distribution of candy.
But Halloween rocks only as much as you make it rock! Here are some friendly reminders in order to make the best out of this year.
Wear whatever you want.
Attire is the mother of all issues during Halloween. Dying to dress up as a zombie, ghoul, vampire, or Elvis? Can’t wait to be that fairy, bumblebee, witch or the sexiest of all crayons? Or let’s be real. You probably want to dress up as yourself and still ask for candy because that’s a thing you can do. No problemo. Keep in mind if you go door to door some people won’t give you candy if you’re not dressed up, but you are more than welcome to accept the challenge.
Fact of the matter is no one can tell you what to wear. To the ladies: Halloween or not, don’t let the insane amount of provocative costumes available discourage you from being a ninja. To the guys: don’t let the insane absence of provocative costumes geared towards you discourage you from being the skimpiest fairy of them all.
Eat candy.
This is essential. Don’t forget to do this. Cavities are temporary but glory is forever. But really, at some point cavities are not temporary so brush your teeth after all that candy. You should floss too but if you’re not into that sort of thing just brush extra and add in some mouthwash.
Get aforementioned candy from strangers.
As long as they’re not waving the candy at you from the comfort of a large white van get candy from strangers. Getting candy from someone you know is okay, but why limit yourself? Flaunt that costume while blissfully shouting “trick-or-treat” at the person who’s unfortunately not you. Residential neighborhoods are the best place to go. It’s even better if the neighborhood is known for being more on the well-lit and wealthier side.
Go to a costume party.
What’s better than a vampire hanging out at a party’s snacks table? It’s a witch, fairy, bumblebee, and sexy crayon hanging out with that vampire. Halloween is about sharing the childlike fun with other people so go ahead and go to that costume party; you don’t know what interesting people you’ll meet.
Watch a scary movie.
This list can help you in your search. Not into scary movies? Just turn on the TV because “Hocus Pocus” is bound to be on.
Don’t be scared to pay to be scared.
With theme parks across Florida giving you the opportunity of enjoying their parks while being scared at exclusive Halloween houses and tantalized by costumed employees, there are few free alternatives that could match that level of Halloween awesomeness.
Scare people.
You may or may not need a mask, but get in the spirit and prank a couple people. They’ll thank you for it later. In reality they won’t, but it’s still fun.
