I don’t know about you, but Halloween is my FAVORITE time of year. I have always loved Halloween and dressing up for Halloween since I was little. Even better is getting to tie in the Halloween theme to festivals and events. This is the ultimate game changer as you get to be creative for your costumes, get to be surrounded by good vibes and even better music.
