halloween

Jon Murray asked:


Now that the leaves on the trees are starting to change color and that familiar chill in the air can be felt, it’s time to start thinking about that scariest of holidays; Halloween. Ghosts and goblins, ghouls and witches and all that candy! I don’t think there is any time of year more exciting for kids than Halloween.

Halloween is celebrated on October 31st and “trick or treating” has become a tradition, but it’s not the only one. Costume parties, haunted houses, hayrides and creepy movie festivals are all part of the weeks leading up to the big day. Here are some sof my Halloween ideas, perhaps you’ll use some of them this year.

Halloween decorating does not need to be expensive, but if you want you can spend a fortune. People do everything from the most simple decoration (a pumpkin) to extravagant light shows and my favourite personal haunted houses and yards. You need to find something which matches your budget and commitment. Dollar stores have a lot of inexpensive Halloween decorations, my favourite from the dollar stores are the glow in the dark spiders and skeletons. I hang the skeletons on tree branches and they light up at night giving a spooky chill to the yard.

I like to do a couple of pumpkins on Halloween, one for each of the kids, a family effort and of course my personal masterpiece (which I usually do on the 30th after the kids have gone to bed). You can find nice pumpkin templates all around the Internet, but be sure to use a sharp knife and if the kids are young, you do the carving, but let them tell you what to cut.

Fog is another Halloween essential for me. I use two fog machines, one in the house (I hope that stuff isn’t dangerous) with some windows open for ventilation and one outside to highlight whatever creepy item I feel needs it. Usually the creepy item is a 6 foot tall ghost we like to call “scary big man”. I purchased him at a garden centre and probably paid too much, but he’s going on his 3rd year now and I stand by my purchase. He’s totally cool!

Hay bales and corn stalks are great yard accent pieces and nothing brings out fall’s creepiness better than those two items. If you live on a farm, you could even build a maze out of the bales and make the kids go through it to get to the front door.

Last but definitely not least is Halloween music. I’ve been building my collection for years, but for starters you can get a simple halloween sounds CD and put it on repeat. Chains, howling, screams make the young ones shake in their boots. The old ones (including parents) find it amusing but neat. I like to throw in a mix of halloween songs like monster mash and of course what Halloween would be complete without a little Danny Elfman. If you’re not familiar with Mr Elfman’s work, he has done soundtracks for some of the scariest movies out there. Google him and see what comes back.

So, get started early. Get the decorations up and maybe have a Halloween party too. Christmas shopping is just around the corner, so enjoy Halloween while you can. It’s the chance for every grown up to act like a kid again.

I want information on the Malaysian mangrove crab known as the Halloween or Blue Moon Crab. I DO NOT want to know about hermit crabs. I seem to be having a lot of difficulty finding any information on the care of crabs other than hermit or red claw crabs online. So, does anybody know how to care for a halloween crab during the molting process? Are there any signs of life I should be looking for? It hasn’t really moved in a few days.

Halloween is the time to send Ecards to friends. Halloween is the time to send Ecards to family. How to get Free Halloween Ecards? One must share the fun of Halloween but how to get very good quality Ecards that look different and don’t cost? Let me tell you.

Free Halloween Ecards – tips on selection

Internet offers paid and free, both kinds of Ecards. How to get the best at no cost? Let me give you few tips.



Search for Free Halloween Ecards. It is not necessary that the best Ecards will be always on the first page of search results. That may be even in the third or fourth page. Search engine searches with different criteria and the first result need not be best for you. Therefore look at few websites. The very first page – home of the website should give you idea about the quality of the content. Ask these questions- is the homepage well laid out? Are the fonts and colors pleasing? Does the design look professional? Does the website offer small content or large content? Once you are sure that you have located a good website, click the Halloween Ecards.



View few Free Halloween Ecards. Look at the colors. Is the size right? Or the Ecard is very small? Is the Ecard designed in flash or plain JPG? If they are JPG, move to another website.



What about the Ecards text? Does it evoke the spirit of Halloween? Listen to the music. Is the music matching the mood of the Ecards? If not, select another.



Does the Free Halloween Ecard open and begin playing immediately? Or you have to click the Ecard to play? The later is good because it gives you the opportunity to view the Ecard carefully and enjoy it. The Ecards that begin playing immediately as they open give no opportunity to the recipient to watch it and enjoy. He/she will have to replay it again to view it. Why trouble the recipient? Send an Ecard that has to be played. That will give enough time to watch the Ecard. Look at some of these Free Halloween Ecards .



5.Write whatever message you want below the Ecard. The message should be personal- between you and the recipient. Make it sound funny and nostalgic. The final test of a good message is simple- will it make the recipient feel good? If yes, go ahead. Send as many free Ecards as you wish.

Although it might seem a little strange to make a Halloween scrapbook on poems, it is actually real fun. When I was told about the birth of my grandson, I started making a scrapbook for him, the pages of which contained all the poems I had written. There are a number of poems with Halloween as the theme that has been written. Therefore, making a scrapbook on Halloween poems is a terrific way of tying together all the poems that celebrate this day.

For instance, if your daughter has planned on dressing up as a Halloween witch, you can include a page in the scrapbook that has pictures of her in her costume, along with the following poem.

The witches ride their broomsticks,

The witches croak and croon,

The witches wear their pointed hats,

Far beyond the moon.

The witches read their magic spells,

They witches stir the brew,

The witches don the flowing cloaks,

All the dark night through.

The witches have big black cats,

That have the locks of gray,

And when the faint morning lights filter,

They all hide away.

You can choose a scary and unique font before printing it out. Then take some black scrapbook paper and paste it in between with your daughter’s Halloween pictures around it along with a few cut outs of brooms, witches, cauldrons etc. Do not forget to include some journaling to add the personal touch. Also add the date on the page.

There are many poems available that can be used in a Halloween poem scrapbook. You can use your creativity and create an entire book that is filled with Halloween poems that center around all your Halloween memories. You can also try writing some poems on your own in addition to the numerous poems that are readily available. Think about all the images and memories that the season of Halloween evokes in your head and then try to put these memories and images into words. You do not necessarily have to make the poem rhyme. If it sounds pretty and flows easily then you have achieved your purpose.

If you try, you will find that making a scrapbook on Halloween poems is much more fun than you can imagine. Of course, you can make the process even more enjoyable if you use your creativity and imagination. Do all the things you can think of while making your scrapbook. Keep working on the scrapbook pages with additions and subtractions of components till you get exactly what you wanted. Then show off your very own Halloween scrapbook.

I watched it when I was a kid- I think it was around the mid 80’s. I vaguely remember the details. All the monsters lived together and the witch was sad and decided she was not going to fly across the moon thereby stopping halloween from coming. I remember a little girl talking to the witch and saving Halloween. There is a really cheesy disco scene at the end.

I’ve been invited to a circus themed Halloween party and I need inexpensive ideas for a costume. I already thought about being a clown, but I’ve been told that there will already be a lot of scary clowns at the party. Does anyone know of any ideas that would cost me less that twenty bucks?
