I love it so much, in a wholesome way.

I don't like gore and larping shitheads, I love Wholesome Halloween.

>>43051878
Yeah. The old Halloween stuff has such a wholesomeness to it. The silly grotesques, the warm colors, and the home spun feel are comfy.

This isn't really Halloween related, but it is cat and ghost related.
I used to watch it on VHS when I was a kid and always loved it. I can't really remember it now because it was so long ago, but QRD from my bad memory

>Fraidy has used up 8 of his 9 lives
>Now he's terrified about losing his last life and becomes an anxiety riddled mess
>Every time he mentions one of the numbers 0 (or 1, I can't remember which)-8 the life corresponding with that number appears and makes whatever situation he's in worse
>Meanwhile life 9 is a thundercloud(?) and keeps trying to kill him

With it being a VHS I'm not sure if it includes all of the episodes. It was one of those where it was cancelled before they all aired. But it was 1975 so I'm not sure if all intended episodes were released on that VHS or if they just never made the rest so the VHS is only the ones that were aired.
I'm not sure how well it holds up and I've never heard anyone ever mention it, but like I say I like it when I was a little kid. Someone might enjoy it though.

gore and edgelord bullshit has a place in halloween as far as haunted houses and scare mazes go, it's that (and clowns) that'll scare adults, but the core of the holiday has always been in the comfy-spooky zone. the word whimsical has been used to death recently, but for halloween to "work" it MUST be playful in that way

>>43053666
Hello Satan!

Anyway, it's been on the OP in the past a few times. It usually ends up falling off as it's just a list with nothing really interactive. You have to find each film to use the list. Currently everything in OP leads directly to something interactive: a show you can watch, a game you can play, a template you can use, ect. If you know of a good interactive version, please let us know!

That's a nice spread

I'm from Michigan originally. I really miss the FUCK out of Halloween. I'm a elder zoomer/zillenial (born in 97) So I feel like I kinda got the last little bit of the old Halloween. Like I remember being a kid, and the streets of my town just being PACKED, and like, we'd be out till like 10 or even 11 if it was a Friday or a Saturday that year. I miss all the hijinks and shit.
Now I live in a small, semi-remote town in Southern Japan, like four hours away from a "large" city that has any significant Halloween festivities.
My Fiance didn't grew up with anything even remotely Halloween ,she really has no idea(for her summer was the spooky time, "Obon" is kinda the closest thing to Halloween.
Our tradition for the past few years on Halloween has been pretty simple, we watch movies, listen to Halloween music (namely The Misfits, Samhain and Danzig) I think I'm gonna try to get her to watch "Night Of The Demons" this year.

I gotta get into halloween spirit quick. Most years I actually start feeling halloweenie in august and am already burned out by october but I just didn't feel it this year. I made a movie list but haven't started watching them yet
>the wailing

>halloween 3
>cabin in the woods
>v/h/s

>the curse of la llorona
>wolves at the door

>the poughkeepsie tapes
>final prayer/borderlands
>the bay
>creepshow
>the taking of debora logan
>ringu
Plus finishing the evil within, I played it a lot last october but stopped near the end, for no reason, I loved it but I always end up dropping games after playing for a few weeks. Plus F.E.A.R. 2. Just finished the first one, 10/10 for 90% of it, but the last stretch was kinda lame.

>>43063493
Try adding or substituting these Games :
> Amnesia : The Dark Descent
> Alan Wake
> Shadows of the Damned
The last one is more of a silly than the rest, but it's great for a spooky party mood IMHO.

Your movie list isn't really great, IMHO. Here's an attempt to help improve:
>Trick R Treat
>Halloween 2
>Cabin in the woods
>Creepshow
>Demon Knight (tales from the Crypt)
>Terrifier
>Southbound

This list has a tighter focus on Halloween and old school comic fun. Southbound was added as its another good as anthology with a very mysterious feel. Demon Knight is a hidden gem. It's spooky fun in the style of old comics, like Creepshow but not an anthology. Terrifier and Trick R Treat are Halloween films that happen on Halloween. Hell yeah, keep Halloween 2 and Cabin in the Woods!

I hope this list helps you get in the spirit.

I know my movie list isn't very halloween focused, I use halloween season to watch all kinds of horror movies, I feel like the holiday feels too artificial if you focus too much on movies that fit the halloween "stereotype". Dunno how 2012 made my list this year but I might as well go ahead with it now. Also I've seen terrifier and trick r treat last year. Southbound sounds interesting.
I've played a bit of alan wake, didn't hook me. I was actually going to try amnesia too, forgot to mention that. Though I'll probably save it for next year, I don't play vidya as much nowadays so evil within and F.E.A.R. 2 should keep me busy for the rest of the year.

Started watching Halloween specials, watched a couple Spongebob ones first, that season 1 halloween episode is the best, all the new spooky backgrounds and character designs, the colors and season 1 jank from still using cells adds to it too it's just cozy
Then I hit Graveyard Shift, probably my favorite episode, gets some unique backgrounds and horror atmosphere, there's a slasher movie called Intruder that I think uses the same stock music this episode does, it's just funny as hell to build tension like that,

Then I watched the Invader Zim two parter "Halloween Spectacular of Spooky Doom" this show fucking rules I love all the edgy nightmare shit, Nick didn't know what they had, ended way too fucking soon, now they just plaster cheap shit in Gir and sell it at Hot Topic for 30 bucks, man I wish I went out with that black girl working the counter she was so into me god fucking damn I'm so stupid

Reminder that Halloween is on a Saturday this year and won't happen again until 2037

>>43061054
I'd say Obon here is a bit more like what All Saints Day used to be like in the west, and from what I understand it's basically the same as other ghost ferstivals that are celebrated in other East Asian countries, like China or Korea. to It's very much based around family,ancestry worship type stuff. There's an idea that it's the one time of the year where the deceased return home to visit for a little bit. Also the whole thing is happening during the summer, and the summer's in Japan are not fun, As someone who grew up in Northern Michigan (Not the UP, but just south of it) Japanese weather and climate is easily my least favorite part of living here lol. Since it's summer there's lot of cicadas.
My Fiance's Family are pretty old school (not uncommon for people from the Inaka) she was raised in what some Japanese people call a "temple family" a lot of her family are buddhist clergy, or very involved in there local temple. So that plays a role in a lot of what I've experienced since I've moved out here from the city.

>In/Spectre
>Cossette no Shouzou

Here's a list I put together a few years ago for anyone who's interested in this kind of thing. Updates since then:
>Mayoiga/The Lost Village (creepy haunted village mystery, honestly pretty shit except for the first couple and last couple episodes)
>Ghost Hound (spooky secrets and childhood trauma in a small town)
>Dusk Maiden of Amnesia (ghost romance, I loved this one)
>Death Parade (episodic thriller where people play games in a sort of limbo to see whether they go to "the void" or reincarnate, a personal favorite of mine)
>Kamui: He's Behind You (supernatural comedy porn, just aired last season)
>Kaya-chan isn't Scary (spooky little girl fights ghosts, reminiscent of Dark Gathering, good time)
>Madoka Magica (probably doesn't need any introduction, magical girls fight witches, also the only thing I've ever seen from Shaft that I like)
>Alien Nine (sci-fi/alien horror, anyone who likes Madoka will probably like it)
>Gnosia (sci-fi time loop horror/thriller based on a VN)
>Nyaight of the Living Cat (ridiculous comedy "horror", instead of zombies it's cats that turn people into other cats)
>Tasokare Hotel (based on vidya, very reminiscent of Death Parade, cute girl wakes up in spooky hotel and has a series of episodic adventures)
>Dandadan (again, probably needs no introduction, it's the Ghost Puncher greentext in anime form)

There was also The Summer Hikaru Died, but I dropped that one because it sucked ass. Others might enjoy it though. It did have some genuinely creepy visuals at times.

If you have kids or nieces/nephews you can take them trick or treating and have an excuse to experience the magic again. I took my nephew and niece out trick or treating last year and brought my girlfriend with me, and it was kind of a nice date night for us (she's just as into Halloween as I am). Would recommend if you have the opportunity to set up something like that.

Just finished Le Portrait de Petit Cossette. I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. Visually, it was stunning. Some shots were overly artsy and annoying, but the vast majority were just really good gothic set pieces and stylized scenes that did a good job communicating the mood. It's the same studio that did Shiki so I'm not surprised I liked the visuals. The music was also really good, a bit reminiscent of Elfen Lied.

It did a surprisingly good job of fleshing out the characters and the love story between Eiri and Cossette despite only being three 35 ish minute episodes. It does end up feeling sort of rushed because of that, I think it should have been six episodes, but the pacing wasn't so bad it took me out of the story or made it difficult to care about the characters and their relationships. You could probably describe the final episode as cliche if you have a good bit of genre savvy, but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, especially from something that came out in 2004.

I'd give it a 6.5/10. It definitely isn't for everyone, especially if you're not really that into anime in the first place, but if short-form tragic gothic horror romance sounds appealing, I'd say check it out, it's an easy one-sitting binge.

Personally I don't think a movie like Friday the 13th or nightmare on elm street is a "Halloween" movie, I do still watch them during Halloween (mostly because there on AMC's fearfest thing or whatever it's called) but like, I also watch them at other parts of the year.

>>43061054
>Tell us about Japanese spooky season!
I happen to be an expert on the subject (lies).
Like the other Anon said, Obon is basically to celebrate your ancestors and deceased. But outside of that...
>Kimodamashi
Summer is the period kids and teenagers will partake on kimodameshi (test of courage), where, usually, people are required to traverse some dark place (a forest or cave), retrieve something and come back. Depending on the organizer, other people will be positioned along the path to scare the other taking the test (the test will also usually be one or two persons going at a time). You can see that pretty often in Slice of Life animes.
>Kaidan
Summer is also when people will get together to tell scary stories. I don't know how often it happens nowadays, but back then, people believed that getting scared (chilled) was a good way to distract from the summer's heat.
>Shinrei Bangumi (don't google this)
Summer is also the time for shows like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYF2c-XrxsA
Your typical live audience show, but they gather some celebrities and watch a bunch of ghost videos and look at ghost pictures. Tho in some occasions, they took the celebrities to some supposedly haunted place for them to explore (which I found especially fun to watch, personally speaking). I have in the past made a thread to post such video to watch with everyone and translate any sections people asked about, it was pretty fun.

Slight style change, I see.
It's probably because I was already used to how it was before, but I kinda prefer the other style, that said, as the list increases, how you're doing now is undoubtedly easier to follow.

Also,
>6 movies in a day
I wish I still had time...

>>43071471
Honesly, not really. If I think about games most people would probably like, what readily comes to mind are the Fatal Frame games and Alien Isolation, and then the most widely known like RE and Silent Hill.
What I would personally recommend the most is Yomawari, but >>43072163 already recommended that, tho the team has a new game called "Village in the Shade", but this one I can only recommend to people that likes games like Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons, since it's like those, but with supernatural shenanigans going on. But if anyone gets interested, it's also worth noting that the english patch for this game is only expected to be released on the 27th. Can still play a little bit before Halloween, but will have to wait some more.

Anyways, here's a few other short games, tho some may be more appropriate for Halloween than others (in no particular order):
>Dredge
>House (1 and 2)
>Forbidden Solitaire
>Reanimal
>Interdimentional Vending Machine (if you like SCP stuff)
>No I'm not a human
>Any Chilla's Arts games
>The Happyhills Homicide (1 and 2)
>Crowded. Followed.
>Days Gone (really like the mob mechanic in this one)

Now two games that fit the Halloween theme even less than the others, but I want to recommend anyways:
>Home Safety Hotline (very much a job simulator, but with some weird things, really wish they would make a Halloween version, like they made a Christmas one)
>Critters for Sale (I just think it has a neat style)

>>43072163
Since the pic has that Indie/Other section, it would be nice to add the Strange Man series (The Crooked Man, The Sandman, etc).
Actually, here, this is easier:

>I try to do deep dives because the standard recommended lists are all the same ones
I see, that's why animes like Ghost Hunt and Shiki are not listed. Tho I'll always recommend xXxHoLiC, even if it's not horror or really Halloween related.

Also, I heard many times that the english dub was so atrocious that people probably can't take it seriously anymore, but I hope at least some people went on to eventually watch Gakkou no Kaidan with the original dub to get the intended experience.

Anyways, should I repost the mango recommendation list? At this point I posted it about 4 times already (over the years) and can't say it would have anything new.

Sorry not having the answer you wanted Anon.
Out of a little bit of curiosity, I looked it up on Etsy, and got 2 results, they at least don't look bad, but the price shows in my currency, so it shows as *expensive*, but maybe to you it won't be.

>>43079192
>Are you the Anon I indirectly recommend Ghost Hound to?
That was me, yup. I liked it. Not my favorite thing ever, and it sort of dragged towards the end, but the atmosphere was really nice and the mystery generally kept me interested.
>I see, that's why animes like Ghost Hunt and Shiki are not listed
Yeah, those are two of my favorites, but they're on basically every recommended list. They were on one of my older posts though from like 2023. The OVA series I just watched the other night is the same studio that did Shiki.

Grabbed these at a nearby antique store a little while ago. Prom Night II is local to my city and in my opinion better than the first, Terror at Tenkiller is a really obscure camp slasher that has a lot of charm and Jack the Ripper is worth watching just for the Klaus Kinski insanity.

The only probability obscure thing I know of is "Friday the 13th the Series". 80s TV show that ran 3 seasons 1987-1990. Campy 80s television with a SCP type theme.

So the show is them going around trying to recover the cursed items and any other cursed items they come across to contain them in the magically sealed vault in the stores basement.

This one I only know by name, never had even seen any images of it, but I see some youkais there, so I'll at least see what it's about.
On a slightly related note, have you watched/read Nurarihyon no Mago or Noragami?

>>43082673
I literally only remember the umbrella scene that was posted everywhere back then. I kinda remember being disappointed, but since I don't remember anything else, maybe I should rewatch it as well.

>>43088593
I at least heard good things, but unfortunately I'm waiting for the english patch, so I don't have my own opinion yet

>>43093364
Noragami I know by name but haven't watched/read, I actually hadn't heard of the other. More stuff to add to my watchlist. In/Spectre has two seasons so I'll be on that for a while, I'm only up to episode 4 but it's been a lot of fun.

>>43093371
Now I feel bad for taking so long to reply, a little bit.
Anyways, neither of them are horror in any way, but they are supernatural in nature, Nurarihyon no Mago is about youkais, and Noragami is about japanese gods. Now, both have 2 seasons, but unfortunately (and as per usual) both were released when their mangas were still ongoing, so the animes don't cover the whole story. And on the manga side, both have weak last arcs, Nurarihyon no Mago feels like it was axed and the author was given a set number of chapters to finish the story (nothing official was ever said to support that, but it's how it feels), and Nogarami had a (personally) boring final antagonist, so it became hard to care...
All that said, the parts the animes cover are excellent, so if the sad realities of the mangas don't bother you, I at least recommend the animes.

>>43093472
I've seen most of the straight horror anime series by now so I tend to have to go for the more horror-adjacent stuff anyway. They both look cool and that gif makes me kek. Gonna add them to the list. I usually keep watching horror related stuff until late November.

Hot buttered rum better can be made ahead and kept in the fridge. Use a sealed jar to keep it fresh.

Mix together 2 cups brown sugar, 1 cup unsalted butter (room temperature or warme), 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon each of ground nutmeg and allspice until everything is blended together. You'll have enough batter for about 24 drinks.

I thought this movie was mid as a child, but I loved rewatching it as a grown up.
I guess it has to do with how gritty and grimy it is. All the characters are bit dickish, but it absolutely nails the autumn vibe and feels a bit melancholic with how the kids feel self-conscious about outgrowing Halloween and how to cope with it.

Some loser dating app after going through a period of volcelism (not recommended).
I had 3 or 4 of them and would match with basically anyone to try and remind myself how to talk to women. Then it was a case of going on dates with ones I thought were attractive to remember how to do that part too. Me and my gf started going on dates every week or so and eventually I asked her out.
What I think is weird, which is probably why it works, is that we have almost nothing in common. There's only art and reading that we share as an interest, but even then we don't like same art or the same books. But for whatever reason, we still really enjoy each other's company.

I'm not sure which aspect you're struggling with. If it's a confidence issue, physical, just where to meet people etc.

>>43106923
I’d say confidence and where to meet them, I’m not the most attractive guy out there and could definitely use some work but girls have been interested in me in the past and I couldn’t pull the trigger, I don’t know how to flirt or escalate a conversation beyond small talk. Only dates I have ever been on was a girl who had her brother tell me that she was interested in me and to go talk to her. Right now I don’t interact with anyone outside of work really and never see girls in the wild apart from the gym and store.

You can try the recipe without cinnamon. Also, have you had True Cinnamon or Vietnamese Cinnamon or just the cheap, common Cassia Cinnamon? Common Cinnamon is not really cinnamon. Real cinnamon tastes different. It's softer, sweeter and more floral IMHO.

My daughter just turned 13. Zero interest in trick or treating with dad. Feels bad man. She used to beg me a long time ago

Usually they want to go with friends by 11 or 12.

When I first found it, it only had 2 seasons, still used Miku songs for the endings.

>>43111447
Yeah, I usually do that, like desserts that use apple or banana almost always use cinnamon as well, which I leave out. But sometimes the cinnamon at least seems too important to cut.

>True Cinnamon or Vietnamese Cinnamon
Wasn't even aware of that, might have to look into it.

Autumn leaves and pumpkins with candles. Outdoors its classic, indoors its magic.

i swear these generals were popping off last year and years before, is it more dead than usual? :(

It's definitely more dead than previous years. I've been waiting weeks for it to pick up.

>>43120871
>>43120297
Agreed. I wonder why it's so quiet this year? We're just one week away from the big day. Maybe the high bump limit and lower image limit is a turn off?

I can only talk for myself, but as I said in the previous thread or the one before, I only come to /x/ for these Halloween threads, and always follow them until the 31st (if they continue through november 1st and beyond, for that I'm already gone), however, last year was an exception, because of the AI spammer, I got bored and left somewhere mid October... but now is another year, and thus I came back. All that said, back then there were quite a few people annoyed with said AI spammer, so what are the chances that more people left as well, but then didn't came back?

>>43120955
Isn't 300 bump limit and 150 image limit the norm for slower boards?

>>43120297
Normies don't come to /x/ anymore for the most part unless they're schizo christcuck /pol/tards because they're so traumatized they just want to turn their minds off and play video games

Yes, but it used to have a lower bump limit. We used to post a lot more images for comfy atmosphere but when we do that now, there's suddenly about half a thread left and it's imageless.

Nice trips. Yeah, we had an AI sloppa last thread but this one isn't as bad. If you ignore them sometimes they go away. Also having OP actually give a damn this time probably helped. Last thread had broken links and non-links in the OP.

Ugh... The "Satanic Panic" people. They've been at it for 50 years now. Fuck the Crystal Cathedral for starting that shit and paying a little girl to lie so they'd have credence for their bullshit. I hope Pat Robertson is roasting in that Hell he loved taking about, that thief.

>>43123097
That anon. I'm on the brink of 50 and remember the satanic panic well. Along those lines I remember the whole subliminal message crap going on in the mid 80's. Watching a news show were some guy plays a Queen album and insists that "another one bites the dust" played backwards comes out as "It's fun to smoke Marijuana". As a /tg/ guy I have the memory of fondling a 1st ed D&D box set my dad bought as he wanted to see what all this "satanic" hubbub was supposed to be about with it. Granted I just looked at the art and maps since I was 4yo and illiterate at the time.

Put on Halloween wallpapers on your phone and PC.

So, I have my own schizo theory that I really can't post anywhere else.
I think they are going to announce Trick 'r Treat 2 on Halloween.
They released a new website and YouTube channel dedicated to Sam.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsyLnwoP0gHvIAUhSusSwXw
https://samthesoulofhalloween.com/
Every single video seems to hint toward Halloween. It could just be because the film is centered towards Halloween, but I think something is up. Next year is the 20th anniversary of Trick 'r Treat,

>>43123872
I saw that, too! I think it's more because it's Trick 'r Treat's 20th Anniversary. They also are plugging a remaster of Season's Greetings, the first Sam film. I'd be super disappointed if all we get is a remaster of Season's Greetings. That said, people have been talking about Trick 'r Treat 2 for 20 years. I don't see it happening...

Just finished the first season of In/Spectre. I liked it. I won't say much about the premise to avoid spoilers, but the general idea is a dude has special powers due to a specific event in his childhood and this makes the yokai of the city fucking terrified of him. He meets up with Kotoko, the girl, and they join forces (and also start dating) to solve supernatural mysteries around the city.

The visuals are all nice and spooky, the yokai range from silly to genuinely creepy. It's also not afraid to get violent, either, but it doesn't ever really stray into over the top edgy territory. The relationship between Kuro and Kotoko is fun and done very well, and I also liked the way they handled his reconnection with his estranged ex-girlfriend Saki. They didn't waste time on any pointless tension or lingering feelings like most melodramas, which was refreshing.

I will say that episodes 8-11 really dragged, simply because of the type of story they were telling. Without spoiling it, it was essentially three episodes of Kotoko explaining in real time how she was going to solve their ghost problem while typing away at her PC interspersed with brief shots of Kuro fighting the ghost. I get that they had to get the point across somehow, and they did try to make it visually interesting, but it just wasn't really a story arc that lent itself particularly well to an animated medium in my opinion. To its credit, the solutions Kotoko came up with didn't ever feel too out there or ridiculous. A bit silly sometimes, but no sillier than your average /x/ conspiracy post.

I think I'd probably give it a 6.5 out of 10. It would be a 7 if it weren't for my feelings on those three episodes. That being said, I did enjoy it and I'm planning on watching season 2. I'll probably also go read the source novel. If you're into urban horror/mystery and think cute, genius lolis are fun, I'd check it out.

Finally got around to watching the original Dracula. I had no idea the movie doesn't really have a lot of music playing, mostly just silent with the actors doing the work. Guy that played Renfield reminded me of Gollum. Also watched The Wolfman, another movie I've been meaning to watch.

If you enjoyed it, I highly recommend giving the Spanish version a watch. It's from the same year, but back then overdubbing the film with different languages wasn't a common practice yet, so they actually had an entirely different cast on the same set. With the obvious exception of Bela Lugosi, I actually think most aspects are done better in the Spanish version as far as cinematography, atmosphere, and shot composition. And while he's of course no Lugosi, Carlos Villarías does a great job as Dracula.

Been going pretty hard on Halloween this year, anons.

My girl and I made a whole month-long Halloween agenda. Horror double features every night, pumpkin patches, fall festivals, ghost tours, antique shops, wandering through the woods around sunset, old Twilight Zone episodes in the mornings, carving pumpkins, decorating the house, the works.

Been watching everything from Rosemary's Baby and The Omen to Nosferatu, The Howling, Phantasm, Videodrome, and a bunch of 80s horror. Saving the Evil Dead trilogy and some other favorites for the final stretch.

We also started making our own Blair Witch-style found-footage film. Went out into the woods around sundown and shot a bunch of footage. Still need to piece it together. Been wanting to do something like that for years.

Had a whole chili day too. Spent hours making a massive pot with three kinds of beef, dried chiles, roasted peppers, Mexican chocolate, etc. Felt like tending a cauldron. Even better the next day.

Today we went pumpkin picking and carved jack-o'-lanterns. Mine looks like some lobotomized freak with half his skull caved in. Got the porch covered in cobwebs and ivy with red lighting and creepy ambient sounds playing from a hidden speaker.

Made myself a costume with an old deteriorated trench coat, gloves, a ratty wig, and an Aphex Twin mask. Also put together a candy bowl with a tiny green frog named Mog.

Still got Halloween itself to look forward to. Planning on hitting some garage sales in the morning, handing out candy, driving around looking at decorations, and finishing the night with horror movies.

Been having a genuinely great time. Probably the most Halloween has felt like Halloween since I was a kid.

I see a lot of anons complaining that the holiday has lost its magic, but I'm starting to think you just have to make an effort to create the atmosphere yourself. Nobody's going to do it for you anymore.

Anyone else actually getting up to anything this year?

I envy your life. I'm struggling to simulate the nostalgic Halloween bucket with an assortment of candies from The Good Stuff, to dollar store crap. Haven't been able to really get around to getting the crap though, closest I've got is Tootisie Rolls and 3 Musketeers.

But anyway, my plan is the usual.
>The Haunted History of Halloween
>Over the Garden Wall
>Ghostwatch
>Trick 'r Treat
I might add some others. Would be fun to pig out on candy and watch the Universal Horror classics.

For anyone curious, here's the horror lineup we've been working through this October.

«Rosemary's Baby / The Omen
Return of the Living Dead / Demons
Night of the Demons / Trick 'r Treat
Fright Night / Near Dark
Tremors / Slither
Sleepy Hollow / The Blair Witch Project»

WEEK 2 — THE HAUNTING

«Hausu / The Changeling
Cemetery Man
Evil Dead (2013) / Drag Me to Hell
The Howling / American Werewolf in London
Nosferatu (1922) / Nosferatu (2024)
Over the Garden Wall / Poppy Playtime
My Babysitter's a Vampire / No, I'm Not a Human»

WEEK 3 — THE MUTATION

«The Fly / Videodrome
The Fog / Stir of Echoes
The Birds / Piranha
Demon Knight / The Prophecy
Critters / Ghoulies
Resident Evil REmake / Supernatural
Ernest Scared Stupid / Halloweentown»

WEEK 4 — THE DESCENT

«Halloween (1978) / The Burning
Phantasm / Night of the Creeps

The Hills Have Eyes / Texas Chain Saw Massacre

Also been watching Twilight Zone episodes, old horror trailers and vintage Halloween commercials.

The whole thing builds toward Halloween III, ending the month on that weird, sinister, old-school Halloween atmosphere.

Here's my costume.

"Should" be chronological over the past number of years.

Now the image limit is always the big question. The biggest complaint from the remaining oldfags and newfags is 4chan is a "image" board, how can it be a image board if you can hardly post images. Our other point of wonder is where are all the images? You go in a thread nowadays you see 100 post and maybe 5-10 images. Back in the day there would be 100 posts with 95 reaction images. Even if it was just a "NO U" or "slowpoke" meme you still posted a image with your post. It's the burning question of our time.

>>43134701
Because I also played some games

>>43134701
>Does protagonist-kun have a personality
Sort of. He's pretty subdued a lot of the time because of events that happened to him in the past, but his personality comes out in interactions with Kotoko.

Hi Fren. This month has been insane! Here's my October so far in order.
>Mingle at the Meadery. I got spiced mead.
>Outdoor market full of Halloween goodies
>Go to a Pagan church, make Odinfags admit Odin torturing kids caused Ragnarok
>Make and hang out with new friends I met at Pagan church
>Found a coven running a witch shop. Did a new moon ceremony with them.
>A second outdoor Halloween market
>Went to a haunted house
>Sampled seasonal beers at a brewery crawl
>Got a free pie pumpkin! I'll be carving it soon. Probably tonight.
That's not including dates with the boyfriend, Halloween shopping / window shopping, and watching horror films and reading horror comics by the armful.

It's been great! Exhausting at the end of the day, but great.
