I’m glad I read this a bit after Halloween because it’s a bit sad that’s it’s over. I know a lot of ppl look forward to thanksgiving and Christmas but I feel like that’s just all expectations. With Halloween there’s no expectations. You can act like a kid and be childlike in your love for the holiday. I think when you stop looking for that next scare or adventure that’s when you stop feeling the wonder you used to feel. My halloweens sucked growing up. I didn’t find my admiration for Halloween until I was an adult. Because it allows you to be child like again. It’s ok to be scared, it’s ok to have fun and eat candy! It’s ok to dress up and pretend. Just like when we were kids. Idk for me I love being able to play spooky games that I might not otherwise play.

I like your YouTube tradition! I created a Halloween playlist with your videos l want to add my favorite Halloween YouTube vids too. Maybe that’ll be my new tradition! Or a way for me to cope with the passing of Halloween until next year. Cool article!

I do recommend that Skary.com page... all the little stories are great! My favorite will be the Mockingbird, I think it's the last one that I actually enjoyed. But i hope u had a nice Halloween night and we can still have a spooky Christmas... that can be part of a next substack lol. Thanks for reading I always appreciate it!
