October is finally over. That means the Halloween season is over too. But it’s okay. Dry your tears. We still have candy to eat and memories to recollect. This rainy day was filled with candy, movies, trick-or-treating, friends and more. I interviewed Sacred Heart-Griffin students to see how they celebrated the spooky evening of October 31st.
Junior Maddie Boyle spent her Halloween with friends. With a lot of good food and dessert made, she had people over to eat, hang out and watch scary movies.
Boyle and her friends watched “As Above So Below,” a horror movie set in the catacombs beneath Paris. They also watched “Pet Sematary,” the classic scary movie based on Stephen King’s novel.
Boyle’s favorite part of the night was “making fun of the scary movies all night.” Hanging out with friends is probably one of the best things about Halloween.
Junior Alex Mauntel agrees that the best part of the day for him was spending time with friends. Mauntel’s Halloween started with football films early in the morning. He spent his day eating a lot of candy and watching television. “I also watched ‘The Walking Dead’ for about five hours straight because I was behind and got caught up,” he said.
Many SHG students also saw The Rocky Horror Picture Show at the Hoogland Center. The Halloween-weekend event included many colorful costumes and people from all over the Springfield area.
Halloween can be celebrated in many different ways. Whether spending the day watching movies, seeing The Rocky Horror Picture Show, hanging out with friends or throwing costume parties, it is a fun day to celebrate and remember the good times.
