Halloween Urban Legends That Refuse to Die
We've all heard the scary stories. But are these Halloween tales real, or are they just myths? Find out now—if you dare. Treating would be nothing without the tricks. And Halloween wouldn’t be fun without a scare or two. That’s the allure of the terrifying tales that circulate around Halloween and have taken on legendary status. Still, some of the 175 million Americans who celebrate this spooky holiday do take the Halloween pranks too far. And hey, you can never be too careful, right? Technically, yes. But chances are, those Halloween stories are just that—stories. Well, most of the time, anyway. Here’s the truth behind some popular and pervasive Halloween-based urban legends.

This costume idea stems from my desire to one-up my 2018 costume, "Bram Stoker, Midnight Toker" where I went to a party as basically weed Dracula. This year, like probably (hopefully) many people, I will not be attending an actual party. But there will be no need, for my LSDemon costume will take us all on a trip to hell in a psychedelic handbasket instead. So, without further ado, here it is:
For the love of Halloween
For as long as I can remember Halloween has always been my favourite time of year. I think it all started in 2008 when my family decided to enter a float into the village carnival.

Simon Fairweather relaxes in his home, a glass of whiskey in his hand, the television turned on with the sound turned down. He enjoys sitting in his living room watching the news, watching the world continue on without having to listen to the inane chatter than usually accompanies it. Simon has grown weary of the world and its problems after his own fell apart some years ago. Now he quietly enjoys watching it falling apart, shaking his head and sipping his whiskey gently as he whispers about how terrible it all is, whispers it to nobody at all. There's nobody left.

Clowns used to be fun as well as funny. They delighted generations of children who loved them and looked forward to seeing them at the circus. In the cartoon Dumbo, (1941) the clowns were hilarious, playing jokes on each other and making the audience laugh. One was standing on the top of a firetruck ladder roasting a hot dog in the flames from a fire that his pals were down below trying to put out.

Spooky season is upon us. However, in 2020, it looks a little different than usual. The coronavirus pandemic has swept the USA, with over 7.6 million cases and over 213,000 deaths, and people are having to stay isolated in order to try and halt the spread of the virus.
Fears, Chills and Shivers
In search of an apartment, Joaquin and Maria, needed one that would allow them to have dogs. One did come available in the right place at the right time. It was not very big but it was sufficient enough for their needs. Never thinking twice about why it was available, why was it affordable with no security deposit needed and why they could move in right a way with no issues; gave them no qualms. What started out for them alone, became more like the hang out place for family or friends.

Horror Films Everyone Should Watch During October
Happy Halloween to all my creepy and crawly lovers! I personally love Halloween and have always enjoyed the creepy, cold atmosphere of October. Especially when all the good horror movies start coming out. Me being a huge horror movie buff, I always like to keep the classics on deck, so I decided I'd share some of my favorite horror and thriller movies with you lovely people. Hope you enjoy and they give your night that extra creepy touch.

It was a clear beautiful morning in Mexico and two brothers were eagerly awaiting the end to another long week. All day they kept thinking of what fun they would have after their hard days work was done and the best idea they had was to go and have a beer at the local cantina. Of course, this is what they did every Friday night and it seemed to fit the bill but this night was one that would remain burned in their memory forever.

The concept of Halloween is fantastic. It's phenomenal how you get to dress your little boy or a girl in the adorable Disney princess or attractive Disney king costume. I always like to go above and beyond to show my daughter that her dad is creative. To show my daughter that her mother and her father can create something that will make people laugh and make people stop in their tracks. The family that will have people look at their costumes because, as a family, they came together and made everybody's attention go to their excellent costume design. We decided to think about what was not expected for an infant costume. We decided to take a horror film, add a spin, and a joke to it by creating my daughter being the "jigsaw" doll from the famous movie "SAW." The game we have to play is getting the key out of her diapers to get us back into our house. Still, you know how kids are they take important objects and misplace them, and so it's just a loving joke that she swallowed the key, and now we have to dig through dirty diapers to find it! Happy Halloween to us, parents, right?. You know, people wonder how you can make a horror movie funny, or kid-friendly. Hence, as we sat back, we thought this would be cute and organic if we find a way to make this parent and kid-friendly and appealing to the eye without being too scary for a toddler, and I believe we pulled it off marvelously. I love any concept that can bring families together, and this is something my child's mother and I can sit down and design a costume and make people laugh and make people admire the time we spent together. To go out and buy our daughter the same old trending costume is fun, but instead, we sat together as a family unit and bonded while we designed this costume. I plan to do that for every Halloween up until my daughter has kids. All you need is a little chocolate syrup, a little face paint, some cardboard from the dollar store, and some old T-shirts. You have a family bonding time fast, easy cheap way of building a costume. There are always ways to fall into depression during a pandemic. There are still was to stay positive, like making a costume with your family. That's a great start; to get out of your head, get out of your comfort zone. This monumental moment in history causes many people to be sad, so I hope people take the time to build with their kids, have a great family time and family moments, and don't let this moment take away from the joy you brought into this world. It's easy to buy a costume for $30, but it's more joyful to watch your kid help you build an outfit that you, as a parent, taught from scratch. Now you get to see everybody watch you guys walk down the street and say, "wow, they put that together as a family so cool!". So I hope everybody for Halloween this year goes costume designing different as possible! The Allman family will always have surprises for the world's people when it comes down to holiday events! Imagine what I have in store for next years costume, stick around and see, and you'll be shocked!! Happy Halloween 2020!

Halloween is Cancelled? By Casey Ann Patterson Unfortunately, I have heard Halloween 2020 has been cancelled due to COVID19. Where I live in Upstate NY within this last week, we have seen an uprise in people suffering from COVID19. The NYS Governor Andrew Cuomo has started dividing the effected areas into zones. With an uprise in COVID cases we now have yellow (some cases of COVID), orange (medium cases of COVID) and red zones (lots of COVID cases). I work and live on the cusp of a yellow zone. As autumn fills the air and Pumpkins and cider arrived on our shelves in my Grocery store my attention is drawn to the giant bags of candy still sitting in our displays. With COVID cases on the rise in our area, so far the only function that I know of that hasn’t been cancelled is our local trunk or treat and during this yearly activity, and participants are being asked to stay in their cars. I believe as we get closer to the eve that all children and adults look forward to besides Christmas, we will see more restrictions and children may be asked to refrain from traditional trick or treating.
