Happy Halloween! For those of you who celebrate it, I hope you all have a wonderfully spooky day, and for those that don’t I hope you have a great Saturday. 🙂 Today I’ll be doing some Halloween baking, pumpkin carving and having a movie marathon later on. We’re hopefully going for a moonlit walk this evening too and sharing some spooky stories around our fire pit! I’m actually really looking…

Why Halloween Is My Favourite Holiday
For most people, it’s pretty safe to say their favourite holiday is Christmas. Or Thanksgiving, if you’re in the US or Canada. But not me – my favourite holiday has always been Halloween! But why? Now don’t get me wrong, I love the smell of fresh pine from a Christmas tree, cosy Christmas movies on a loop throughout December, and The Muppets Christmas Carol soundtrack playing. But Halloween is hands-down…

5 Spooky Places Around the World I’d Love To Visit
Halloween is fast approaching, and what better way to celebrate than by sharing some of the spooky places I’d love to visit. As they’ve have always fascinated me. I’ve done ghost tours in London and Edinburgh, wandered through the Paris catacombs, visited the harrowing sites at Auschwitz, explored old churches, cemeteries, castles, and even stayed in a haunted hotel. So it’s pretty safe to say I love anything with a…

The Hallotober Tag
It’s no secret that I love Halloween; in fact, it’s my favourite holiday, seconded only by Christmas. So when I heard that Jordanne had created the Hallotober Tag this year, I crossed my fingers hoping I’d be nominated. What I didn’t expect, however, was to be nominated, not once, not twice, but four(!) times, by some wonderfully talented bloggers. So thank you to Claire of Our Favourite Jar, Katie of…

Ways to Celebrate Halloween at Home
This year Halloween has the potential to be amazing; it falls on a Saturday (which means a whole day of spooky fun). There’s a full moon that evening, in fact, the second one this month (called a blue moon). And, for those of who like astrology, the moon falls in Taurus this month too (which happens to be my starsign!)… So it goes without saying that I’m a little bit…

This or That Halloween Tag
Happy Halloween! Tonight I’ll be watching the sequel to The Shining, Doctor Sleep at the cinema with my family… A horror movie on Halloween night? My idea of the perfect evening. 💖 But while I’m laughing at my mum jumping at a horror movie, 😅 (sorry mum!), I thought I’d celebrate here but answering the This or That Halloween Tag, which I found on Mama’s Losin’ It. This Or That…

Favourite Halloween Movies
It’s that time of year again! Yes, October is finally here, which in our house means lighting candles, carving pumpkins, and watching as many Halloween movies as possible. It really is my favourite holiday (seconded only by Christmas)! I mean, what other time of year is it socially acceptable to eat sweets, dress up in a spooky costume and binge watch horror movies ’til your hearts content?… Please tell me…

Halloween Spooktacular Book Tag
The Halloween Spooktacular Book Tag was originally a reading challenge created by the Blogger Book Nook, a reading community full of bloggers that love to share their favourite books and authors, and have regular discussions. I actually found this tag on An Ocean Glimmer, so make sure you go and check out her answers. This tag was actually the Blogger Book Nook’s their reading challenge for October 2017(!), but as…

Halloween Accessories for Your Work Wardrobe
AD | It’s no secret that Halloween is my favourite holiday, and honestly, if I could get away with wearing my Ghostbusters leggings all month, I probably would! However working in an office environment five days a week, I know how difficult it can be to embrace your love of all things spooky. Often I’ll opt for something a little more “mainstream”, with my spooky items solely reserved for evenings…
