Resource "Support group" for lonely Halloween-enjoyers with no Halloween plans

[NormallyNeurotic]

I probably won't be able to dress up for Halloween... which is killing me because I couldn't due to illness for many years before, and I was really really hoping I'd be better enough. Oh well. Anyway...

This thread is a little support group for people like me—who love Halloween and/or spooky stuff, and are sad that they don't have anything to do on the day itself.

Whether it's due to disability, isolation, mental struggles, or anything else (even if you "just can't bring yourself to do anything this year"), you are accepted here.

For now, this will be a bit of a countdown to Halloween, I guess, with support for people who might struggle mentally as it nears arrival. Then, this will still be open once it arrives.

Do whatever you want here! Vent about what you wished you could do, talk about past Halloweens, ask about everyone's dream costume, draw, give movie/song recommendations, even roleplay as if this is all a big Halloween party with all of us invited.

Just a goofy thread for lonely, spooky people :')

Me first:
Halloween is my favorite holiday. I even had a Halloween themed birthday party as a kid since I'm an October baby. It's going to hurt seeing my friends have fun on the 31st while I'm stuck suffering. Maybe I'll watch a movie. Hell, we could plan a movie premier where we watch a movie at the same time and chat about it on this thread or something.



3 days... :')

Sounds like fun, I had a Halloween tradition of watching a horror movie with my sister and a friend but now since we are all at college we can't do it. I'm planning on buying Halloween candy and watching the Texas Chainsaw franchise :).

Fellow solo Halloween enjoyer here. It's my own fault because I could be at a friend's wedding but I just couldn't face it.

I will try to find some horrors I haven't seen that don't look like trash and maybe drink a beer or three.

I've never seen the Texas Chainsaw franchise, but I've heard it's good! Sorry that college is disrupting the flow of tradition for yall

What's your favorite Halloween candy?

I'm picky about my horror movies even though I grew up as on horror and I haven't only seen good horror either! I watched almost the entire Final Destination franchise for the shits and giggles. I used to rank the gore by how realistic it was. As... a child. Fun times

Kind of an odd pick but I've always liked candy corn, when I used to go trick or treating in middle school I could always convince anyone I went with to give me any they got lol. Smarties are a close second (but mainly because of that trick you can do with them that made you look like you were smoking, remember doing it all the time). How about you?

I have never celebrated Halloween or done any sort of trick or treating. Wish child me was able to now.

FINALLY SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T THINK CANDY CORN AND SMARTIES ARE GROSS!!!

Uh, as for me, I'm not the most picky. I don't like nuts that much, but give me a Mounds or some Smarties and I'll go ham. Or give me like. Gummies. Any gummies at all. I love gummies.......

While not necessarily horror (at least I don't think so, it's not really scary), I think The Twilight Zone has a pretty spooky Halloween vibe to it. I've been having a lot fun watching that late at night, especially since it's been storming here lately.

Watching Twilight Zone during a thunderstorm sounds amazing tbh

It is! doing it right now haha

I will probably be handing out candy alone if I bother buying any. I might not even bother and just leave my light off so that people don't come and bother me.

Might watch a japanese horror along the lines of Ring and/or some creepy David Lynch. I second or third or whatever the Twilight Zone suggestion. Definitely a show with creepy Halloween potential.

My wife loved halloween, she would choose out our costumes and match it out with the dogs. Fuck this is a painful first.

I've always wanted to celebrate Halloween but I was raised as a bullshit Jehovah's Witness so no holidays or birthdays. Now I yearn to experience the who shebang at least once but it seems like Halloween has been dying? Or at least that's what I've been seeing online.

I don't have anything to do as always. I wish I had a costume, some candy, and some friends who would delighted to celebrate with me but I don't. I think all I will do is watch some horror movies...

Can't go wrong with a good scary movie tbh Halloween does seem to be changing for the worse unfortunately but I hold out hope it'll get a resurgence. Culture recycles, and its Hallofuckingween so I can't imagine it'll fully die

 

[trashhologram]

I love Halloween! I won't celebrate it this year because all my friends are broke and so am I lol. I watched Saw X last night and am planning to watch a lot more scary movies. It's been years since I last saw any Saw movie, but that one was good. Not the best, but I liked the plot twists.

I'm also doing a Halloween photoshoot for my porn page. I'm going to be the sexiest devil ever, haha!
