I was going to call this “Posts of Note: Halloween Favorites”, but as I collected these links, I was compelled to raise the stakes on my title…because, people, this stuff is awesome. A mind boggling amount of creativity and energy gets put into this holiday – the sort of energy that, prior to giving birth, I reserved only for Christmas.
Happy Haunting!
