10 Childhood Movies For Spooky Szn
Walt Disney Pictures

Trying to get festive the entire month of October? Here are a few of my favorite flicks (nothing too spooky of course).

1. The Haunted Mansion

An often forgotten classic with Eddie Murphy, but never the less amazing. So many people don't associate the movie with the Disney ride, but it's probably one of my favorite movies to watch this time of the year.

2. Matilda

Growing iup everyone raved about this movie that I actually never saw until I was 18 (uncultured I know), but it sure brings a little spooky magic to the air around this season

3. Twitches

twin witches. need I say more? Honestly, I wish I had gotten this oppurnity like how cool?

4. Halloweentown

Literally the entire series brings me joy. I watch it every year, my poor parents have seen it so many times, but it is honestly my favorite way to get in the mood for the season.

5. Hocus Pocus

Anything pertaining to witches is really my thing, so this movie is very much up my alley. It is a classic for sure set in Salem making things all the more spooky.

6. Nightmare Before Christmas

Honestly one of the greatest movies that I found to be the strangest as a child, but Jack Skelton has my heart.

7. Ghostbusters

Who ya gonna call? Pretty sure everyone knows the song as it is an anthem around this season, and the movie (even the remake) is quite the catch.

8. Casper

Pretty sure Casper, both the ghost and human form, was my first love. An absolute treat of a movie with just enough ghoul foolishness.

9. The Harry Potter Series

This one is pretty self explanatory I think? Making your own butterbeer to go with it really sets the vibe too.

10. Beetlejuice

An old thriller with lots of laughs guaranteed.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer.
