This is a very an alluring giveaway collection. I think you had me at Illuminae. 😃
ReplyDeleteHalloween is pretty much alien in this part of the world, no kidding.
ReplyDeleteUsually a marathon of horror movies: Saw, Final Destination etc. This year is Tim Burton films :)
ReplyDeleteI usually watch something spooky on the tv to celebrate Halloween! And I carve pumpkins of course! ;)

I used to decorate my house but this year I decorated my unit at work and had our residents help it was so much fun. I think it might be a new tradition for me.
ReplyDeleteI'm the same here, though I do like to watch a lot of horror films during this month. :)
ReplyDeleteNo real Halloween traditions aside from decorating.
ReplyDeleteWe don't celebrate Halloween in my country... :(

In France we don't do Halloween in all the cities so just decorated my home for the kids.
ReplyDeleteWe set up at the flea market on weekends. So, the weekend before Halloween (unless Halloween falls ON a weekend), I dress-up and hand out candy to the kids passing by.
ReplyDeleteWhen my daughter was of age to trick-or-treat, she would give me all her Baby Ruth bars, because that's one of my faves, and we would always tag in for Halloween Town on Disney Channel
ReplyDeleteWatching horror movies and eating waaaaay to much candies with a bunch of friends.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! :)
i love eating teh candy and decorating the club for the special tchullu event at halloween
ReplyDeleteTake the kids trunk or treat at local fire department held by a local church they have hot dogs and chips with tea or lemonade. Its fun and all safe.
ReplyDeleteI usually go trick-or-treating with my little sis, but since she's growing up so quickly, I don't know if she will want to go this year. Other than that, I eat candy... Lots and LOTS of candy! :)
ReplyDeleteWe don't really celebrate it in Europe so I just stay home and watch horror movies :)
ReplyDeleteSince my girls have grown up they usually come over and help me pass out candy and watch scary movies. Last year we did a puzzle too because it was rainy and we didn't have many come.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! The only thing I normally do is watch scary movies, eat junk, and of course watch hocus-pocus. :)
ReplyDeleteI loooove Halloween! Every year I go to a haunted corn maze, watch the 31 days of Halloween on TV and make a fun costume :)
ReplyDeleteIn terms of decorations, we string a web across our porch and put a Barbie in the middle wrapped up in a web with a spider sitting on the edge XD
ReplyDeleteWe love Halloween! It's also my birthday so, of course, we do a birthday celebration, plus trick or treating for our daughter, tons of horror movies, pumpkin carving, pumpkin patches, we do as much as we can!
ReplyDeleteWe don't do anything special. We go out to dinner and have lots of candy ^^
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway!
Thank you for the giveaway! The only tradition I have is feeding my little brother lots of chocolate and sweets!

ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win!
I'll probably watch Hocus Pocus! haha I love that movie!!
ReplyDeleteWe decorate the house and give out candy to all the kids who come to the door. I also like to read scary books leading up to Halloween!
ReplyDeleteThere is an annual party that the proceeds go to charity at a local winery that is possibly haunted, I've gone to the party the last two or three years, and am planning to go again this year!
ReplyDeleteBinge watch all the scary movies on netflix LOL
ReplyDeleteno traditions either...not a big fan of halloween
ReplyDeleteNot a whole of traditions for me outside of wearing an awesome costume and eating as much candy as possible. :p A party never hurts, too. ^.^
ReplyDeleteNo traditions here yet. I'm not sure if I will ever have one.
ReplyDeleteNot really, I'm in Mexico so what we have is Dia de Muertos.
ReplyDeleteStaying home, and then wait for my little cousins to get back, and then I take them for an extra round around the apartments. It's a good haul, since not that many kids come by.
ReplyDeletejust hanging out with friends, this year I have a son, so I guess its a good time for some traditions
ReplyDeleteI don't really have any traditions!
ReplyDeleteI don't really have any however I used to have when I was younger bobbing fir apples with family and watching fireworks.
ReplyDeleteMegan @ reading away the days
Well, no REAL tradition, but I do try to watch a "spooky" movie (aka The Nightmare Before Christmas or Hocus Pocus, haha). That and find a scary book to lighten the mood.

ReplyDeleteNo Halloween traditions now that my babies are grown. Not even giving out candy because we don't live in an area with too many young kids.
ReplyDeleteI love staying in and watching Halloween candy and watching Halloween movies!
ReplyDeleteI usually stay in and watch scary movies. This year I will probably be studying though
ReplyDeleteI don't do much for Halloween either. Just pass out some candy, watch some scary movies and eat some of that candy! lol
ReplyDeleteI have my friends over to watch scary movies and talk. After we usually take a walk in the dark. ;)
ReplyDeleteNo, just trick or treating with my munchkins
ReplyDeleteI eat tons of candy as I give it out to trick or treaters. Does that count?
ReplyDeleteWe don't celebrate Halloween here in El Salvador :( but I eat tons of candy :D Although, I do that all the time
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I'll be celebrating Halloween (I moved to the UK) and so far there is a lot of candies around :)
ReplyDeleteMy family gets together on a Sunday around Halloween & we eat delicious foods & do a "fishpond" where we get gifts fished from the closet over a coupon. I'm not exactly sure how it got started, but my Grandma used to do it and now my Mom does. :)
ReplyDeleteI love love Halloween. The best is when my friends and I do group costumes, haha I also love corny Halloween movies (but not the scary ones).
ReplyDeleteI have to watch Hocus Pocus!
ReplyDeleteWe don't celebrate Halloween in my country, but this year me and my friends are watching The Rocky Horror Picture Show :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous post Alyssa. <3 Just wanted to say that you are awesome for giving these books away :D I'm not entering, but yeah. You are the best. <3
ReplyDeleteI used to dress up in really elaborate costumes that I did myself but now I have been dressing up my little brother! :) He loves being complimented by everyone when he goes trick or treating.

Sorry for the shameless whoring :(
We have many Halloween traditions, and not just because Halloween is my favorite holiday. Since it is my favorite holiday, my husband and I were married on Halloween. Not only do we dress up and take our kids trick-or-treating, but we also celebrate our marriage.
ReplyDeleteNo particular Halloween traditions, maybe some trick-or-treating though!
ReplyDeleteUp until 6th grade, my school would organize a trick-or-treating party where parents decorated their cars and everyone went trick or treating in the parking lot... Pretty cool if you ask me :).
ReplyDeleteI love the costumes. Love being someone or something different. I many times go as a fortune teller.
ReplyDeleteI pass out candy and watch Hocus Pocus every Halloween. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI'm a teacher, so I'll do something fun for my students, but personally I don't really do much for the holiday.
ReplyDeleteHanding out candy on Halloween as well as I try to make it to a "haunted" attraction at least once with some friends.
ReplyDeletein my country, we don't celebrate it at all so naturally neither do i. ^^
ReplyDeletesounds fun, though
We live in the country, so no kids come around. I always hit up the stores after for the half off candy.
ReplyDeleteJust watching some scary movies with whoever is around x)
ReplyDeleteWe usually don't do anything. Maybe a party or two at a local bar so everybody can dress up, but it's nothing big.
ReplyDelete(Ileana A.-rafflecopter)
Nothing much, really. I think I might wear a costume for the night with my sister.
ReplyDeleteSome people tried to make Halloween happen in my place since... I don't know, not long ago, so it isn't really in our customs. Or does trying to make seem there's noone at home that night is a kind of tradition ?
ReplyDeleteSince moving to Germany I don't do a lot. I do always watch The Rocky Horror Picture Show and It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown
