Halloween is fast approaching and I have been noticing a change, it seems like Halloween isn't being celebrated as much as it was when I was a kid. With so much political correctness and what not things that make childhood fun are being changed. Now they don't even call it Halloween Festival at schools (or Christmas for that matter...that a whole other blog lol). If you don't celebrate a particular religion then don't participate. It is our differences that make this country great so whats the point in hiding it behind "PC". My daughter is not African American but I want her to learn and celebrate African American Heritage Month as well as learn about other cultures and religions. Things are crazy, just accept and celebrate people's differences and enjoy life and be nice. Geesh lol.
Parents are afraid to let their kids trick or treat for fear of poison candy and social deviants who prey on kids (I have a solution for that) and the kids are cheated out of the experience. Trunk or Treat is just not the same as going to see all your neighbors creepy, and if your lucky, terrifying houses and collecting bags full of candy all the while wondering if there are any goblins and ghouls waiting to grab you when you stray to far from the lights.

I have given thought to if I was going to move where would it be and having an awesome Halloween town would be great! I figure other like minded people would find this useful too. Arizona isn't bad but it has just changed. I am curious as to what Halloween is like in other towns across America and would love to have everyone's input on what the best towns and neighborhoods in those towns for Halloween are and have a reason by answering these questions....
Does your town have....
- Family attractions like fall festivals, carnivals, or any other family friendly stuff.
- Halloween Parades and are they big?
- Haunted Attractions
- Neighborhoods that go all out on Halloween with decorations and candy
- Block parties
- Real haunted places
- Local spooky legends
- Great Fall Weather
And anything else you think is spooky and awesome for the darkest night of the year. You can either post in comments or email me at somethingwickedaz@gmail.com and I will make it all into a list for everyone to see.
