A fun look at the holiday all kids (and those who are kids at heart) love is from the Holiday Spot. Lots of ideas for costumes, masks and decorations are here, too.
There’s an entire on-line magazine devoted to Halloween and it has some great links to ideas and crafts for a safe and fun celebration. Take a look at, what else, The Halloween Magazine.
Then there’s Halloween Online-The Internet’s Largest Halloween Resource to be chock full of goodies. Check it out.
Brownielocks (?)and the three bears has a Halloween site that is fun, even if the music is a bit annoying.
Halloween Is Here has lots of delightful (?) recipes for refreshments for your Halloween Party. My favorites are Meatloaf Mice and Guts and Eyeballs. But don’t forget the rest of the site’s offerings.
Pumpkin Masters, the company that created the first pumpkin carving kit and continues to market carving tools, decorations, trick-or-ttreat accessories, etc. has a page with some free pumpkin carving patterns as well as other fun stuff.
From the “Neopagan” viewpoint we have this link to the history and traditions of Halloween.
To give equal time, Annie’s Pages gives the History of Halloween from a Christian perspective. Her History of Halloween page is rather straight forward for, as she says:
Well I thought that I would just put up the information from the Encyclopedia about the History of Halloween along with the connection of the Celts and the Druids along with customs and other information. …I have not added any opinions because the information stands alone and you can then make your own conclusions.
England celebrates Guy Fawkes Day and Bonfire (from Bone Fire) Night, instead of Halloween. Which is a little strange to my mind since his was a failed attempt to blow up Parliament and over throw King James I! (England still does not celebrate the successful American Revolution.)
