Halloween will be a little bit different this year, but these spooky activities will keep you at home and safe. Ranging from online calls to care packages, we got you covered on the best ways to stay safe and at home this Halloween.

1. Halloween Movie Night

Nothing says Halloween like a good ‘ole Halloween movie binge fest! There are always great films and TV shows to watch and binge at night. Some really fun films to watch can be Little Evil (2017), Us (2019), and more! Make it even better by setting up a Netflix Party to watch with friends!

2. Video Call Costume Party

Start a Zoom call and show off your silly, spooky, or straight-up adorable Halloween costumes to your friends and family! Make food, drinks, and crafts with your loved ones through video calls and make memories. 

3. Halloween Care Packages

Missing anyone during the fall season or just feeling generous? Create fall/Halloween-themed packages to send to those you miss this season with cute trinkets, cards, books, and more into your box and send it away! 

4. Virtual Pumpkin Carving

While it is fun to go to pumpkin patches, it can be hard to go to one at the moment. Either get a pumpkin, piece of fruit, or anything to carve with and call up a few friends to do some carving together! 

Halloween might be different for a lot of us, but it doesn’t mean that we can’t have fun that night! Hopefully, these activities will be part of your fall agenda and you too can stay safe this Halloween!
