Top Ten Things About The Halloween Season

The air is beginning to chill, leaves litter the ground, and candy corn can be found at just about every store,fall is here! Along with fall comes the most wonderful time of the year, Halloween! There are waaaaaay more than ten spooktastic things about Halloween, but homage must be paid to the most iconic in no particular order.

1. Halloweentown

This Disney Channel Original Movie is one of the BEST parts of the season. Who doesn't enjoy watching this classic each and every time it airs on Disney Channel? To make matters even better, the movie has three sequels so if you get sick of this one (unlikely) you'll have other options.


2. The Limited Edition Food

Orange Kit Kats, Reeses' Pumpkins, candy corn M and M's, the list could go on and on for all eternity. These tasty treats are just too good not to stock up in bulk.


3. Monster Cereals

Keeping with the food category, no one can forget the greatest group of all time, Count Chocula, Franken Berry,Frute Brute, Yummy Mummy, and Boo Berry. Those cereals never disappoint.


4. Haunted Trails

Tis the season for getting scared beyond belief. Haunted trails are a must during the Halloween season. Getting spooked with your friends in the cold of an October night is the perfect way to spend an evening.

5. Halloween Parties

Who doesn't love a good Halloween party? Costumes and creative holiday treats are a wonderful combination. Winning the costume doesn't hurt either especially when you've been working on your costume since December.


6. Pillsbury Shape Cookies

Need I say more?

7. Halloween TV Specials

13 Nights of Halloween, 31 Days of Halloween, AMC FearFest, the options are endless and oh so gory. You can watch Beetlejuice and Friday the 13th in the same night so what's not to love?


8. Halloween Stores

Spirit Halloween offers everything you could possibly need for a successful Halloween. You could spend hours in there just looking at the mask section alone and then the ever terrifying animatronics.


9. Halloween Decorations

Halloween lawn displays bring you more joy than Christmas lights do and that's a-okay. Everybody loves a good blow up pumpkin amongst cardboard grave stones.


10. Jack-O-Lanterns, Ghosts, Monsters, Cemeteries, Basically Any Creepy Halloween Symbol

The staples of the holiday are half the fun. It's difficult not to enjoy each and every bit of it.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
