If you need date ideas for your significant other, want to hang out with your best friends, or just want some ideas on the perfect fall events, here are some things to cross off your fall bucket list.

  1. Pumpkin Carving

  1. Fright Fest

If you live in New Jersey you probably know that going to six flags is a ride of passage for many. From September 16th to October 31st Six Flags transforms its theme park into a scary adventure with mazes and jump scares all through the park. So grab a friend and prepare to be spooked. Tickets are available here:

  1. Paint Night!

Looking for a more unique decoration for your apartment, dorm, or house? Look no further than the dollar store. With a few canvases, bottles of paint, and brushes you and a friend can create more spooky decorations with a spooky paint night! For a scary twist, set a timer, and every 10 minutes, switch paintings with a friend and have them continue the painting where you left off. Keep switching until the painting is complete! 

Here are some Inspo Ideas for Spooky Paintings:
