Halloween, the happiest month of the year

I LOVE the holiday Halloween. I love, just as equally, the season surrounding it. I've always enjoyed dressing up and even do so all year 'round. I work on costumes all year for conventions and such. For me, Halloween isn't just about the dressing up. It's the best time of year! I love the decorations and scary movies. I love all of the candy and the awesome colors. I think its the best season, that it gets all cool and smells fantastic. There really is no time of year that I enjoy more. When I lived in the north it was always wonderful watching the leaves change... I really miss that. Florida sucks for seasonal visuals.
This year I've really dived in. I can't afford to put up decorations, but I've done everything I can. I made Halloween themed cubees (Alien, Jack Skellington, Rod Serling, the Stay Puft Marshmallow man, and Frankensteins monster). I made brownies with orange and black sprinkles. My bf and I did a couple of themed photoshoots, to celebrate the best holiday in America. At Target, I found Franken Berry Fruit Roll-ups! To top it all off I made a list of movies that really fit the theme of the holiday. I picked from mine and my bf's movies the titles that were appropriate in my opinion. This is the list! The "*" notate those titles I've watched so far, so you have some idea of what I have left to watch by the end of next week! I think I'm going to be busy...
