I always fall behind on the costume planning. Luckily my girl is spooky, so she does that thinking for me.
So what are you going as this year? Thanks for watching by the way!
That's exactly how it's planned! 👍🏻
🍂🎃🍁 How much I love the fall season, welcome Halloween 🍁🎃🍂
There will be bats hanging on my porch again, 2 ghosts and my beloved pumkins
in different sizes 🥰😙✌🏻
A scarecrow sits on my porch year-round and serves as an additional scratching post
for our cat ⚔😼😅
Thanks for another great vid 🤗👍🏻
That sounds like a great setup! I usually do a heavy fall display in late august to help welcome in Halloween in September! I love that you have a year round scarecrow! Thanks as always for watching Sara!
Halloween starts next week for our house ❤️
It's about that time! Thanks for watching!
I have a few tips of my own. For spooky season, here's my top 3
tip 1: lighting- Lighting is a must every year for me because I do a haunt every year and if you have a house that's 100 years old with no outdoor plugs or anything of that nature, you're kinda limited as to what you can do. If you can, get solar lights, I use them every year from everything from lumario bags to lighting up jack-o-lantrens. It will save you money in the long run, just make sure you don't put them out in the rain. Learned the hard way.
Tip 2: Buy craft or grow your own pumpkins- you can find them anywhere they sell them and pumpkin seeds are sold year round normally at your local store. There are plunty of helpful tips on how to grow them into that jack-o-lantren of choice on youtube, as for the craft ones, not only are these ideal for whatever project your working on, but if you don't want to get your hands dirty every year with carving or are looking to improve on your carving skills then a craft pumpkin is a great idea to practice on.
Tip 3: Pricy doesn't always mean high quality- If you're eyeing that animatronic you've been saving up on to buy or that costume, It's gonna come with some missing or broken parts. I've had this problem for years and thankfully, there are some stores like spirit halloween that do have an in house repair guy/girl to help you with that animatronic that broke down out of the box. Still, if you can, buy cheap or DIY it. It's more than likely you're not going to be using it every year and it will wear and tear overtime,
Wow thanks for that, some really good tips here. I have always wanted to plant pumpkins, I think I might finally try next year. I totally agree about price and quality too. I'm gonna do a vid in a few weeks specifically for decorating tips and I'll definitely talk a lot about lighting, like you said it's super important. Thanks again for the great tips and thank you for watching!
If you have a somewhat handy person: Rechargable AA cells can be bought for not much. They make plastic battery holders for AA that are cheap. They make LED components that are flickering LEDs. I will go to Amazon and put a link here
www.amazon.com/EDGELEC-Flicker-LED-Emitting-Flickering/dp/B07XKB6WH6/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=flickering+led
www.amazon.com/EDGELEC-Flickering-Flicking-Emitting-Resistors/dp/B0785G1SBP/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=flickering%2Bled&th=1
These are just to give you the idea. The thing is that you don't need an ON/OFF switch. Its just the LED and a pack of AAs to get something over 12V When you put in the last battery of the set it is on and then you can put it in the pumpkin.
Thank you! Loved the video! I always wait too long thinking I'll either have plenty of time and money, and then WHAM! It's October and I don't have enough of either. Summer isn't my favorite time (Autumn is), but you just made it so much better! I'm starting these tips now. Again, thank you! 🧡
Wow I'm really glad that my tips could help someone! I used to do the same thing, and I got really sad when October rolled around and I didn't get to do things I wanted to do, or I was stressed about one thing or another...doing this stuff definitely helped make my October and Halloween much more relaxed and enjoyable. Thank you for watching!
You have wife and kids so your version will be quite different from mine but I am going to put a few things here that you may want to add to the advice;
-- My first is what I call the "box-o-lantern" This works best if you have a big window facing a place where it can be seen from a distance and a quite large cardboard box. Ideally, you want the room the window is in not be one you are using at the time. Take a large cardboard box spray it with some black paint if it is a light color. Carve the box to be a huge "jack-o-latern" like face on one side. Line the inside opposite the face with aluminum foil. Place one of those fake flame LED lights very low inside the box and position the box as high as you can in the window. When seem from a distance the effect is that you have a huge jack-o-lantern.
-- I have a thing I created that does a rear projected pumpkin with flickering light and plays spooky sounds that I use in a window of my current house. My 1st suggestion won't work here because where the window faces nobody can be at much distance and see it. Back projected makes it appear to be just a thing that is unsupported in the window.
-- If you like your neighbors, get some silent puzzle/toy things rated as safe for little kids and give them out along with the candy. The memory of who gave out the toys will linger. If you don't like your neighbors, slide whistles are a good choice, but remember if you get strung up by others don't blame me.
Those are some great ideas, definitely wanna give out something special to the kids in the neighborhood, I love that idea. I also really really love that giant Jack-o-lantern idea with the window, thats something I'd definitely like to try this year! My kids love Halloween as much as I do, so I think they would love to donate their window to the cause hahaha. Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching! Stay spooky!
My wife and I decided to do a Scarecrow theme this year, and the kids are loving it. Soon, we'll start decorating our yard.
That sounds great, I love a scarecrow yard! If you post any videos of it let me know so I can check it out! Thanks for watching
@@MisterOctober definitely will. My wife posts all of our Halloween DIYs on her tiktok.
This year I’m doing a circus themed front porch🎃! I’m making a big clown face out of cardboard and paint that you'll have to walk through (you enter the mouth) to get to the door. I’ll have hanging pool noodles that you'll have to walk through, some clowns sitting around, and I'm making a popcorn stand where a clown will be "working" lol! There are so many inspiring pics on pinterest. Hope this inspired someone🎃
Just found your channel and I love the energy!! Had to sub!👻Happy summerween!
Thanks for the sub, and your setup sounds amazing! Sounds like you already have everything planned out and are ready to go! I bet the kids in the neighborhood will love it too, I'd love to see pics when you get it done! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
I have a Halloween music playlist that I started working on, on Spotify about a decade ago. It’s a mega-list that spans Halloween through the 1900’s to now and probably has tracks that most people have never heard of. 😂 I add to it whenever I find some new Halloween music.
Wow that's awesome! Is it public? I'd love to check it out! Thanks for watching by the way!
Supporting you from my travel channel and reaction channel! Love Halloween!!
Thanks so much! That's really cool, I subbed 😄 Love the name, especially as a southern boy myself lol
I like to do DIYs. My theme this year is little shop of horrors. I am making 2 Audrey 2s. For my front porch. I will also have vines with baby Audrey's. Inside my house, I am creating an enchanted forest/witches parlor.
That sounds great! I'd love to know how you are making those Audrey 2's! Thanks for watching!
Love the bucket list idea! Def doing that!
You should! It really helps! Thank for watching!
Great video!! It’s nice to see more fellow spooky content creators on youtube! I am doing a few themes but one that’s new that I am extremely excited for is a Halloweentown theme!!
Oooh Halloweentown would be really fun, I need the deets lol. I just checked out your channel and you are right up my alley, I subbed. It's really nice to meet other spooky-forward individuals lol. Thanks for watching!

Thanks so much, I have more coming! Thank you for watching!
Yo what’s good Mr.October🤝

You should do a Halloween Etsy decor haul
That's a really good idea actually, I'll check into that as well. I've actually never bought anything off Etsy before. Thanks for watching and for the suggestion!
Awesome planning suggestions and tips. Awesome video!!
Thanks you! I hope it was helpful and thanks for watching!
Hi!! 🤗 I love these tips!!🧡🧡 another great video!🫠✨️🎃 .. and I love your gorgeous ginger cat !😻🥰🐱❤ by the way we tried the deviled eggs and the pumpkin spice burger you made in your video, they are so yummy and cool✨️🫠🧡
Hey! Thanks for watching! I'm happy to hear you tried out the recipes and you liked them! He's a very sweet cat who puts up with 3 young kids and a crazy pug but still just wants to hang out on my lap, he's my buddy!
@@MisterOctoberI enjoyed making them🎃✨️ .. aww your cat sounds adorable!🥰🥰😻🐱 I have had so many different animals in my life living in the countryside 😻💚 now I have a cat , Luna 😻🐱❤️. I love pugs, they are wonderful 🥰
Is Luna a black cat too?
@@MisterOctober My 2 previous cats Jennifer and wonderful Dyla were black. Dyla had a little white Moon on her belly and a little white star on her chest. So when Dyla passed I adopted Luna, I am sure Dyla guided me to her because she is black with white fur that is shaped as a D and a Moon and other signs that mean so much ❤️🐱✨️ I called her Luna after Dyla's Moon ✨️🌕
Aww that is so sweet! I love that! Animals really are so sweet, my cat (Finn) is currently sleeping on my wife who currently has a really bad cold, he's always looking for us lol.
I got something I bet no one on here has a couple years ago I purchased the Lionel O gauge Hallows Eve Limited train set by far a lot of my friends favorite thing I own like my Polar Express doesn’t get the love my Halloween train set gets lol for this year I’m just dressing up the layout for Halloween 🎃 with lights,spooky characters,my McBoo bucket with candy inside it and thinking a mini fog machine cause I’m thinking that would make it spookier…and for my costume this year in honor of one of my favorite wrestlers I’ll be dressing up as Dr Thuganomics John Cena I know some people are going to say something about it but I was dared by one of my best friends and coworkers to do so there’s that 😂
Haha that sounds awesome, and sounds like you have everything all planned out lol. Those trains are no joke, I'd love to see that! Thanks for watching!
Cool video! 🎃
Appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
I’m working on a decoration for 2025. I know it won’t be ready this year. It’s a giant clown who’s leg you have to walk under to get to my door
That sounds AWESOME! Sounds like you are gonna have an awesome setup for 2025! What are you doing this year?
@@MisterOctoberI’m working on a skeleton that vomits in a bucket continuously. And some gravestones that go up and down on one side. Neither are my idea I’m just following tutorials from other makers on RUclips
