Yes, it's that time of year again. The leavings are falling along with the temperature. Booty shorts are retired for the year and sweaters are coming out of hiding. Pumpkin spice is everywhere and the school year is in full swing. It's October, or, as I like to call it, the month of Halloween. Here are 12 things you can only relate to if, like me, you love Halloween.

1. Halloween is a season

It starts October 1st and ends October 31st.

2. Halloween movies are the best seasonal movies, hands down.

From Psycho to Hocus Pocus to Scary Movie - do people even watch other movies?

3. You can talk about things that would be super weird to bring up the rest of the year - like serial killers or real life hauntings.

I swear I'm not trying to kill you. I just find this stuff interesting.

4. The day after Halloween - which is never referred to as November 1st - you start planning your costume for next year.

It is the most important day of the year after all.

5. Dogs. In. Costumes.

Do I even need to explain?

6. You never get tired of Halloween music because they never play it on the radio.

Not only are they graveyeard smashes, they're my most played songs on my itunes.

7. Candy, candy and more candy

Why be healthy when you can be happy?

8. Anything with skulls on it is a must have.

Is this why people always say I'm goth?

9. Your worst fear is showing up to a party and seeing someone in the same costume as you.

A true horror story

10. Pumpkin picking is an event you dream of for months.

I NEED to find the biggest one in the patch.

11. You genuinely believe in the supernatural - although, you'll never admit it to anyone else.

What was that noise?

12. You don't understand how anyone can love any other holiday better.

What's better than playing dress up and eating candy? I don't get it.
