My original tip was to prepare a box full of candy for the Halloween singers this year. But I’m afraid there won’t be much trick-or-treating this year.
Nevertheless we can celebrate Halloween at home.
When we were living in the States I really loved this Halloween period. From the serious bank clerk to the crazy hairdresser, everyone was dressed up and everything was decorated.
Our house and garden were transformed into a haunted house and the whole meal was dedicated to Halloween.
You might find this all too commercial. But frankly, it does not have to cost you a lot. And furthermore doing a bit crazy from time to time, makes you smile!
Tip for today
Organize a halloween evening at home
What do you need to make it a ‘creepy’ evening?
Halloween decoration:
- Get some black paint sprayer to spray old bottles (to be used as candlestick /vase) and branches/flowers black
- Black tablecloth (I died some old sheets)
- Black candles
- Orange or black napkins
- Spider hair (or angel hair) to stretch
- Fake spiders & other creepy things
- Paper Bats (download the shape here)
Halloween music:
On Spotify there are some very eery Playlists that will give you the creeps:
creepy ambience, creepy music box, creepy doll music and spooky lullaby music.
Halloween outfit:
I leave that to your creative imagination.
(wrapping himself in toilet paper was the favorite outfit of my son ;-)).
