It’s Halfway to Halloween…Time to Get Spooky!

Guess What, Ghouls? It’s Already Halfway to Halloween!

We know that you don’t just like Halloween — you live for it. You dream of fog machines in July. You secretly listen to “Monster Mash” in the dead of February. You stare longingly at your skeleton decorations, whispering, “Be ready, my ghouls… the time is near.”

Well…The wait is over. You don’t need an excuse — but if you want one, this is it.
It’s Halfway to Halloween, and it’s time to unleash your spooky soul!

Why Halfway to Halloween is a Big Freakin’ Deal

  • It’s your official permission slip to start planning Halloween like a boss.

  • You can start decorating without too many judgmental stares.

  • Craft stores are already sneaking out some fall stuff (shhh…).

  • Planning now = No panicked costume disasters later.

  • Honestly? Life’s just better when you’re spooky all year.

Spooky Steps to Prep for October Awesomeness

1. Dream Up Your Ultimate Halloween Theme

Are you thinking Gothic Glam? Haunted Harvest? Zombie Backyard Apocalypse?
Now’s the time to pick your vibe so you can start slowly collecting the perfect props.

2. DIY Until You Cry (Tears of Joy)

Pinterest is CALLING your name. Try making creepy candlesticks, haunted mirror frames, or spooky porch signs. Summer evenings + a glue gun + a witchy playlist = pure magic.

3. Costume Planning = Happening NOW

Want to be a vampire, a villain, or a vengeful Victorian ghost? Order special costume pieces early or start thrifting for hidden treasures. Bonus: If you need to sew or DIY, you won’t be speed-stitching at 2 AM on October 30th.

4. Build a Halloween Hype Playlist

Start your mornings with “Thriller” and your workouts with “Somebody’s Watching Me.”
Trust me — folding laundry feels way cooler with a little werewolf groove in the background.

5. Haunt Your Home in Secret

Start swapping little things now — black candles here, a raven statue there. By the time August hits, your house will naturally slide into full haunted mansion mode without feeling like you blacked out in a pumpkin patch.

6. Throw a Halfway to Halloween Party (Because Why Not?)

Invite your friends over for a spooky spring bash. Think watermelon jack-o’-lanterns, witchy cocktails, and horror movie marathons under the stars.
Costumes are absolutely encouraged. Bonus points for ghost-themed snacks.

7. Stay in the Loop, Spook

Brands are already teasing Halloween collections and horror movie drops. Keep your bat ears perked — and snag the good stuff before it vanishes into the night.

Final Ghastly Thoughts: Your Spooky Season Starts Today

Halfway to Halloween isn’t just a date. It’s a state of mind
It’s the thrill of planning. The magic of imagining. The absolute joy of knowing that you’re officially on the countdown to the best season of the year. So light a pumpkin candle, crank up the creepy tunes, and start making your October dreams a reality. Because in this house? We Trick. We Treat. We Prep Early.

And honestly? We wouldn’t have it any other way.

As well as broadening his experience in administrative leadership. In addition, he pursued film and special effects makeup programs in both Detroit and Los Angeles and worked on set as a special effects make-up artist. His passion for being a Halloween and horror film “geek” have been a constant throughout his life - cutting his teeth on the extraordinary works of Mary Shelley, Bram Stoker, Edgar Allan Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, H.P. Lovecraft, and the great Shirley Jackson. His youth was spent hustling through haunted houses, and seeing the latest 70’s & 80’s horror films at the midnight drive-ins and local movie houses. He's also an avid horror film and movie memorabilia collector. One could say, he's autumn over summer. Pumpkins over pineapples. Horror over drama; and wearing black over anything else.
