31 Days of Halloween: Day 31

It's the big day! Wow! I can't believe it's been a whole month... because it feels more like years. Can anyone actually remember when I started celebrating Halloween? I know I said I was going to do it properly this year, but I think I may have gone above and beyond. Anyway... here's what we got up to on the actual day itself.

Pumpkin and Ginger Tea Bread

The perfect Halloween breakfast.

Samhain Tea

Samhain Tea break! Chai with ginger, cinnamon, orange and clove (with pumpkin sprinkles) from Raven Mystic!

Ghost Pumpkin Frappuccino

Work meeting in Starbucks. So... Ghost Pumpkin Frappuccino it is then. Lot going on in this one. Lot going on.

Halloween Dinner

Halloween Dinner at my mother-in-law's... Potato Pie followed by Pumpkin Pie. So much pie! And ghosts!

31 Halloween Films: Death Line

We brought one of the films on our list round to my mother-in-law's to watch tonight. MIND THE DOORS!

31 Days of Halloween: Day 31

And so it's the big day! We were both working on Halloween itself, so most of our big celebrations happened on Sunday, but I still had some final things left to mark the season.

Today's Tea

My final Halloween tea this year was the appropriately named Samhain Tea from Raven Mystic. It's a ginger, cinnamon, orange and clove chai tea!

Today's Story

And the final classic tale of horror for my Halloween story-a-day was 'The Tomb' by H.P. Lovecraft.

‘Gunpowder Treason’

The last chapter from Ronald Hutton's The Stations of the Sun for this season was 'Gunpowder Treason'.

Halloween Earrings

And my final pair of Halloween earrings this year were my cow-in-a-tractor-beam UFOs.

Halloween III

And a brill finale to my month of Halloween fun... watching Halloween III at Chapeltown Picture House with my brother. It was very cool that the screening ended dead on 9pm as well, just in time for the big giveaway.

And so the wheel of the year turns... We'll be celebrating again at Christmas.
