All right you ghouls and gals, today’s the big day! It might not be your favorite holiday, but for some it’s a top contender, and Scentsy’s here to show you just how great Halloween can be. So get out your spell books and get ready to take some notes. Follow this recipe closely or you just might lose your head!
Rise from your grave
Most of us probably feel like zombies in the morning … that is, until we get our magic potion. Whether you enjoy a pumpkin spice latte or a hot cup of morning tea, take it slow this morning. Now’s the perfect time to take in all that the season has to offer with a morning walk. Fallen leaves and early frost provide an excellent backdrop for beautiful fall memories. Maybe snap a few photos on your walk – pick something colorful, something cozy, something nostalgic and/or something fleeting. When you return to your resting place, put on some music and a fall fragrance like Cinnamon Pinecones, Autumn Sunset or Pumpkin Roll and spend some time introspectively. Try journaling, arts and crafts or reading a good book.
Mid-day monster march
Gather your goblins and gremlins for a haunting excursion. There are tons of classic Halloween attractions and events that are the perfect fit for the big day! A hayride or corn maze are both accessible harvest activities to get your friends and family involved. Stop by a pumpkin patch for those late-season pumpkins ready for carving! Then, after burning all those calories, treat yourself to the perfect bite. Pie is a classic, but here are a few other suggestions from the Scentsy blog if you’re looking for something to snack on.
Children of the night, take flight
The time has come for all creatures of the night to roam the streets looking for a tasty treat! October is the time for all things spooky, but let’s be honest, Halloween night is what makes this month so special! Whether it’s memories from childhood, or the new ones you’ll make with the kiddos this year, the charm of a night spent trick-or-treating with friends and family is the reason so many love this holiday!
If you’re looking to squeeze every drop of spookiness out of tonight, there’s one last thing you can enjoy before a crisp November morning wipes the ghostly remains of October away. Wrap up the evening by picking out a special family-friendly movie – something that the kids and yourself will remember; the key is making the night special. Maybe that’s achieved by emphasizing that the kids are up past their bed time on this spooky night! Maybe it’s just by snapping selfies on the couch with popcorn, a blanket and, of course, candy! There are so many classic movies to choose from like Halloweentown or Casper but Disney Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas might just be the perfect film to end a truly haunted day before your rest in peace.
