Halloween is the second most important day in October (after OU of course), but that doesn’t make it any less important! It’s the only day of the year that you can go out dressed up as whatever you want, from the spooky to the sexy, and no one can judge you. The best part is that reminiscent of the trick-or-treating days of our youth, you can still get all the candy your heart desires, but now mixed with a teeny bit of alcohol. Here are some of ways to spend your Halloween this year!
1. Go downtown!

2. Have a movie night!

In case you actually want the crap scared out of you on Halloween, head on over to the nearest haunted house. These people are trained to make you pee your pants! Spend the night running from scary zombies and killers and get the adrenaline rush of your life.
Regardless of what you decide to do, HCTX wishes you the most spooktastic, happiest Halloween!
