Halloween. A day to be anyone you want to be. A day to scare
strangers. A day to stuff your face full of sugar. Halloween is a throwback to
child hood. It’s a day we anticipate all of October. The build up is filled
with Hocus Pocus, Halloween town, and movies that make you hide your face under
the covers as if that will keep whatever monster in your room from you. We buy
candy corn and carve pumpkins to prepare ourselves for the big day. Then the
day comes and in the spirit of Halloween we dress up and become everything we
wish we were, a princess, a zombie, or a ninja. Our wildest dreams come true.
As the sun begins to set a mythical world develops full of creatures from
storybooks and movies. The party begins and we lose ourselves to our costumes.
The real world melts away and we are given a chance to forget the world. We
only get this one night where the calories don’t count and the judging ends at
the mirror. The fright night only happens once a year so I hope everyone enjoyed
the great pumpkin’s visit last night spreading Halloween cheer.
