My Strong Feelings For Halloween Continues. . .

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Brenau chapter.

 

Ahh. It is finally October, and I think we all know what that means. HALLOWEEN!

Now, I bet by reading those first sentences I may seem so excited for the month of October, but I am actually not. Shocking, right? I have tried several times to get into the Halloween spirit of things each year, but it is impossible for me. Therefore, I have strong feelings about how I dislike Halloween.

It is not even the full month of October that I dislike because Fall is my favorite season. Fall would not be Fall without the beginning which is October. October itself is probably one of the best months in the year, but it just has my least favorite holiday in it. October is full of fall festivals, state fairs, comfy and cute clothes, tasty pumpkin flavored treats, etc. During Fall when I walk out my door, I see all the beautiful different color leaves falling off the trees, and it feels like I see and absorb the beauty of change. It is wonderful. But, I just have one problem with October. I will let you guys take a guess on what that problem is.

Obviously, Halloween. People can say and call me whatever they would like, but I am pretty sure I will never like Halloween ever again! Check this out though. When I was younger, Halloween was one of my favorite holidays. It was like, as a kid, what was better than dressing and being your favorite thing or person for a day. As kids, we got excited about being scared till we lost our voices, and my father was my partner in crime during Halloween. Oh, did I mention the tasty candy? Halloween was like an all you can eat buffet of all the candy in the world. It was great! But, as I grew older, I had a horrible experience of Halloween at Six Flags and ever since that day my feelings for Halloween have been on zero.

So you see, I do not just dislike Halloween for no reason. I was traumatized. Okay, okay. Maybe not traumatized; I am being dramatic. But, you get the point. I hate to be stubborn and stuck in my own ways, but I am done with Halloween every year until further notice. Sorry, not sorry.
