Q&A for How to Celebrate Halloween

There are several options here. First, would they let you go to a thrift store? If so, you'll find plenty of Halloween decorations for really cheap prices; in fact, you might even be able to buy them by the bagful. Second, you could make your own decorations using items from around the house or your craft supplies. You'll find lots of ideas in this wikiHow: How to Make Halloween Decorations . Finally, you could ask neighbors, friends and other family members if they have decorations they don't want and are happy to give to you.

Sure, check out the wikiHow How to Make Scary Halloween Decorations for ideas such as a Head in a Jar and an Army of Zombie Dolls. You could also decorate with the theme of a favorite horror movie or use lots of scary items like skulls, blood and creepy crawlies.

Yes, you certainly can make your own Halloween mask. You could start from scratch, cutting a mask from cardboard or making it from papier mâché, or you could purchase a basic mask and decorate to match your costume theme. For more help, check out the wikiHow How to Make Halloween Masks .

It is possible you are allergic to pumpkins, and that by cutting the pumpkin and revealing its flesh, you were exposed to the histamines naturally contained in pumpkin. The reaction you have described is fairly typical when someone has an allergic reaction, and can also include nausea, stomach pain, diarrhea and runny mucus. If you're really allergic, you only need to touch or be near the flesh for the reaction to happen. See your doctor for a test and further advice.

Nobody says that you have to like or celebrate it. Just do your own thing on October 31st.

It's better for safety reasons and because trick-or-treating is usually more enjoyable with a group.

You could buy some Halloween candy with your allowance/pocket money, put on a costume, and watch a scary or Halloween-themed movie, or ask one of your friends if they would take an extra bag with them to get candy for you.

Orange, navy blue, purple, red, green and black of course! The darker and spookier, the better.

Sure! But if you are with younger children, keep it tame until they leave.

It's not really necessary. It is likely people will still give you candy, even if you don't wear a costume.

There are plenty of other ways to celebrate Halloween! You could watch scary movies alone or with a friend. You can decorate your house and give candy to trick-or-treaters. You could also host a little get-together with some of your friends, or go out to watch a movie.

You can draw pumpkin on a paper and paste it on the doors. You can also make other decorations and be creative in your own way.

You fill a large container with water and put apples in it. People will have to dunk their heads in and catch apples with their mouths only.

Dress up in a costume, and have fun with your friends! Also, you can bring candy and eat it at snack or lunch.

Trick or treating usually lasts about two hours, so you could go out and get candy for about an hour, then come home and pass out candy for the second hour (or divide up the time however you like).

When the people at the doors stop giving you candy, or when you feel too embarrassed to go out. For some people, trick-or-treating carries on into their teenage years.

Most people wear scary costumes for fun. That said, you do not have to wear anything scary. A lot of people wear funny costumes or cute costumes. It is your choice.

The clown is probably a prankster or someone in a costume. If you're worried about going out alone and encountering a clown (or anything else that scares you), bring an adult.

You can find many online videos about how to make scary foods. Cupcakes can be fun too, as you can make them look like eye balls!!!

Well be creative! To make it the best, just try to stand out from all your friends and be different, this time only comes around once a year! As for your other question, it is completely your choice to stay silent or talk. Murderers talk, don't they?

If you are an adult staying in, then yes, you can.

You can buy them at any Halloween store, party store, Target, Walmart, and even online on Amazon or eBay.

Your bag doesn't have to be scary! Most people take small buckets, plastic pumpkin buckets, baskets, or even pillowcases! Pillowcases are the easiest ones to get!

You can still go trick or treating without a costume, or you can go buy one. Or make an easy one by cutting eye holes in an old sheet -- now you're a ghost.

You could use a watermelon or any other type of melon, it should have roughly the same effect.

You could dress as Hermione, Harry, Ron or some other character from the movies or books.

You can make a scary cake and personally, I do a tradition where I peel grapes and tell kids to close their eyes and feel them. Tell them they are eyeballs. Ooh scary. You can also use cold spaghetti for "intestines."

You can buy an already carved pumpkin, lots of stores sell them for Halloween, or you could paint a face on the pumpkin instead.

Most likely they're just kidding; they won't harm you, they're just kids! They might pull a prank like toilet papering houses, so be prepared.

Absolutely, it's fine. Many people don't even celebrate Halloween, so don't get worried that you'll feel out of place! There are other ways to have fun on Halloween than wearing costumes. Like carving Jack-o-lanterns, giving out candy, and scaring, if that's your thing. Don't take it seriously, it's a fun event and who cares if you're not in costume?
