Spooky season is here; however, it’s been met with a little less fanfare this year considering reality at the moment is about as spooky as it gets. Between news headlines, the upcoming election, and the current state of the world, it seems like a month that features an event known for mask wearing (sounds alright) and traipsing around to strangers’ homes (wait, no) is not being received quite the way it used to be.
That being said, it’s difficult to resist the siren call of the fall, with its changing leaves and pumpkin spice everything. ‘Tis a time of year for fake cobwebs and ghost stories and eating a whole fun-size bag of Reese’s all in one sitting. It’s like the prequel to Hygge, served with a spike in blood sugar. How quaint!
Although the current state of *gestures wildly* everything is spooky enough to last a lifetime, you won’t find us pulling away from the traditions that have us dressing up and gorging ourselves silly on tricks and treats. And although this Halloween will undoubtedly look different, we’re still hype for all things ghostly, creepy, and spooky.

most ppl don’t like ghosts because they are scary. me? i don’t like them because most ghosts are from the 1800s so they are probably huge spooky ass racists

Why do poltergeists always open kitchen cupboards? Like they use their energy to transcend the ethereal plane just to say BAM LOOK AT ALL YOUR CANNED GOODS

It doesn’t even have to be haunted. At this point I’d pay money to go inside any house that’s not my own.

A haunted house, but one room is just a list of nine phone numbers you have to call to schedule appointments for which you're overdue and for which email or text is not an option
