Show and Tell: Halloween Ideas

I love Halloween, always have. My childhood memories of this wonderful holiday include homemade costumes, walking the neighborhood Halloween parade, and trick-or-treating with friends.

One of the newer traditions my family has adopted is "Ghosting." Have you been "ghosted" yet or are you wondering what in the world I'm talking about?

Ghosting is a mix of Ding-Dong-Dash, the Easter Bunny and All Hallows Eve all rolled into one.

Just print up or draw a picture of a ghost and write "You've been ghosted!" on the paper.

Sneak around and leave these notes along with some Halloween goodies on the porches of friends, neighbors and family members. Make sure to remind them on your ghosting paper to keep the tradition going by "ghosting" other people, too.

And then when they ask you if you were behind the treats, zip your lips and let the "ghost" take the credit.

Now it's your turn to show and tell! What are your favorite Halloween traditions, ideas, decorating tips or costume creations? Share with us by leaving your link below!
