True Confessions ~
I don’t like…
scary,
creepy,
bloody and/or bloodsucking,
things that go bump in the night.
Or any other time of day.
I don’t like bats.
And I don’t like spiders.
I don’t do horror.
I do like…
tricksters
and treaters
dressed up as pumpkins and ghoulies and ghosties and princesses and bumblebees and their favorite Disney characters.
I like when kids Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF, though I haven’t seen one of those boxes at my door in a very long time.
Here are my three favorite Halloween movies…
Hocus Pocus (1993) because, you know…
I put a spell on you!
The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
And (technically not a Halloween movie) Practical Magic (1998) because, you know…
Midnight Margaritas!
What are yours?
About every five years (really twice) we have a movie date night, eat red Twizzlers, and enjoy watching moviegoers in costume.
This year, the grown-up frightlet will be manning the door. We’ll be making pizzas — the dough is already made — munching brownies and watching one of the above.
You?
TGIF before Halloween.
See you in November. It’s comin’!
You know what to do. Meet you in the bar in 3…2…1…
