Explore the Magic ...
Halloween comes once a year, but searching for a good scare never stops at The Halloween Hunt. Collecting Halloween items, writing about events, food and history of the holiday, and tracking trends are all part of the quest for spooky creativity.
October is a state of mind for me. When I think of Halloween time the everyday becomes magical. Fog coming from the nearby creek unfurls over the hill like ghostly whispers. Bare tree branches become bony fingers scraping on the window glass and maple leaves falling from a front yard tree create a pile of orange stars to jump in and scatter.
I hope readers will share their own photos and experiences, adding another dimension to this spooky corner of the web. Part of the fun is making your own Halloween decorations and food, and learning new tricks to impress family and friends.
Haunting your outdoor area can be just as thrilling with endless possibilities for creating a scene that keeps trick-or-treaters in awe each year.
Each year new technology and scare tactics amaze me, but sometimes, I crave the nostalgic side of Halloween. Vintage art and collectibles inspire many Halloween artists to create spooky icons like witches, skeletons, pumpkins, ghosts and black cats. I plan on sharing more features on Halloween creators art and stories. We can always find treasures in retail, but it’s the local artists and unique visions of individual studios that give more meaning and personalization to your decor.
If you want to get away from it all and plan a haunted holiday or visit to a scary attraction be sure to check out my reviews. I hope everyone continues their hunt for all things eerie, spooky, scary, goth or traditional and keep the Halloween vibe going all year long.
