A Night of Spooks

Personally, I believe Halloween is one of the best times of the year. As a child, I absolutely loved when I got to dress up, whether it be a princess, a clown, a pirate, or a fairy. Not only were my sisters and I allowed to be artistic and expressive with our costumes, but of course the free candy aspect was appealing to us. Although there is an actual historical meaning to the reason behind the obtained goodies, the eerie masks, and the carved pumpkins, I feel like Halloween has grown into much more than what it originally was, and the traditions it originally held. It's an enjoyable, amusing, creative night for both trick-or-treaters and thrill-seekers, allowing people of all ages to express themselves and enjoy this spooky night. As long as everyone respects the decisions, values, and properties of one another, what's not to love?
