This Is Halloween, Covid Style

19/10/2020

0 Comments

 
This year has been a rollercoaster ride full of unusual decision making and well, last-minute cancellations. This is due to the outbreak of COVID-19 that has affected people worldwide.

But as this year has been ‘cancelled’, what does that mean for the scariest holiday of the year, Halloween? Is that going to be cancelled? Well, no fear, Mel is here with a few tips and tricks of her own that she is going to do during this pandemic and what she plans to do to make sure she enjoys her favourite holiday of the year!

  • If trick-or-treating is cancelled this year why not make your own family scavenger hunt around your own home, backyard or even in a local community centre.
  • But if trick-or-treating goes ahead make sure to wipe down all the goody bags and treats that you or your loved one collects.
  • Why not get your camera out and see what spooky images you can capture on Halloween night you could even see if there is a local Halloween photo contest near you that you can submit your photos too! 
  • Did you know you can play escape room online? Why not organise a night full of horror and find a virtual escape room from this link provided here; https://www.independent.co.uk/extras/indybest/gadgets-tech/virtual-escape-room-free-online-uk-zoom-harry-potter-a9515911.html

It’s been a weird time of life for all of us but we deserve to celebrate one of the most loved holidays of the year! So why not do it in style but most importantly safely! 

Some other ideas are; - See if there are any local Halloween outdoor cinema showings that provide a safe and fun event for everyone.

  • You can never go overboard with decorating your house so why not go all out and blitz your home with spooky DIY. If you would like some inspiration why not check out Pinterest for ideas!
  • Organize a ‘Glow-in-the-Dark Egg Hunt’, Halloween style! Include a maze full of your favourite Halloween characters.
  • Movie marathons are my favourite especially when it’s all horror themed 
  • As face masks are an important thing for safety right now why not get creative and do some home DIY on your own Halloween face masks.

This year I really wanted to revisit my childhood by going trick-or-treating again as I haven’t been since I was 11. But it all depends on what the rules are for going trick-or-treating during COVID. 

That’s not to say I can’t enjoy it though! By trying out those safe activities I’m sure to have one spooky Halloween even if it’s at home. I’m also planning to decorate my bedroom and go all out with Halloween decor!

I get some of my inspiration from Pinterest which I highly recommend if you want to get creative!  Check out this link for ideas;  https://www.pinterest.co.uk/search/pins/?q=diy%20halloween%20decorations&rs=guide&term_meta[]=halloween%7Cautocomplete%7C1&term_meta[]=decorations%7Cautocomplete%7C1&add_refine=diy%20halloween%20decorations%7Cguide%7Cword%7C0
