I hope you are having a wonderful time and your weekend will be fabulous.
Please check out my friend Celeste's Five Things as well.
It is almost October which means that Halloween is near so I thought I share some things related to this favorite holiday of mine.
1. This bath bomb.
I love taking a bath and I love Lush products. This one is from the limited Halloween edition and it is so fantastic. It smells like ylang-ylang and orange and it makes your bath water look really funny. Love it.
2. This black cat.
No Halloween without black cats. And of course my black cat is the best black cat in the world (all black cats rock though!).
3. This movie.
I wanted to watch this movie last Halloween but didn't. So it is definitely on my October watch-list. It looks like so much fun.
4. These cookies.
I want to give it and try and bake some fantastic cookies like these. I am not sure if I would want to eat them afterwards because they are just too pretty too eat them. Does not make any sense but I am sure you can impress people with cookies like these.
5. This haunted castle.
I would love to visit a haunted castle like this one on Halloween. Anything creepy fascinates me. So this would be the perfect thing to do. Do you know any interesting haunted houses/castles? If so, let me know, please. I would like to read about them!
What do you like about Halloween?
Have a fabulous weekend!
Ok, so I went to two rather posh boarding schools, both of which were apparently haunted.
ReplyDeleteThe first was in a castle, and one of the towers was always blocked off. Lots of teachers said they saw the ghost of a white lady there. I never saw a ghost but it was pretty creepy!
The second was Gordonstoun, the manor house was built by Sir Robert Gordon who was an alchemist and known as the Wizard of Gordonstoun. The story is that he made a pact with the devil and when the devil came to collect his sent his hellhounds. There is a mound at the school with three graves for the hounds. Its called dead dogs hill. Loads of other stuff...you can look it up online!
Your schools sound awesome, Celeste! Dead dogs hill sounds so creepy! I will definitely google it because I want to find out more about it! I love ghosts so now I want to read about the white lady! :) Thanks for telling me about this!
DeleteI LOVE Halloween! I can't believe I've never seen Hotel Transylvania. I need to fix that.
ReplyDeleteYeah, me too! I am sure it is an awesome movie!
DeleteI love your five things. :-) Halloween is so much fun! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt really is! I love decorating and going to haunted houses. And pumpkins are always great!
DeleteLOVE!
ReplyDeleteI mean, although I am German I love all things Halloween! :-D
Carving pumpkins is one of my favorite things, besides baking and eating the typical Halloween-ish things.
God, I'd love to visit a haunted house or castle but I think I would be too scared!
But anyways I hope you will enjoy October and Halloween as much as I will and have a nice weekend!

Yeah, I know that Halloween is not that popular in Germany as it is in America. How is it in Sweden? Do they celebrate it?
DeleteCraving pumpkins is so much fun! And you should go to a haunted house! I always enjoy it so much!
I saw that movie last Halloween and it was funny! I like the cookies too. They would be good for a party but yeah, I would also hesitate to eat them because they're too cool :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, they really look too pretty to eat them! :) I would feel so bad!
DeleteAnd I definitely need to check out this movie as soon as possible!
Hotel Transylvania is a really cute movie. We watched it not that long ago for one of our family movie nights. It's perfect for Halloween! :)
ReplyDeleteI really need to check it out, I am sure I will love it too. It definitely sounds liek my kind of movie!
DeleteOMG I LOVE that bath bomb, adorable. And I love the cookies because I adore Nightmare Before Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThat bath bomb is so cool. I really need to get one. And I am also a huge Nightmare Before Christmas fan!
Deletehave you seen 'a monster in paris'? it's an enjoyable animation with really wonderful music, I think you'll like it. just check out the trailer for 'hotel transylvania', it will go on my list of films to watch.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of halloween and I don't celebrate it. even here, there's rarely any trick-or-treating these days. but it is a day to watch out for people who might dressed on the subway.
hope you have a great day.
No, I haven't seen "A monster in Paris" but it sounds totally cool! I will definitely check it out! Thanks for the recommendation, Lissa!
DeleteI never cared much about Halloween in Germany but now I really like that tradition. I just like anything creepy! :)
Have a great Sunday!
I must attempt those cookies!!
ReplyDeleteMe too! They looks so fabulous!
DeleteI wish I was talented enough to make those cookies but they would end up looking nothing like those what so ever!
ReplyDeleteHaha yeah, they would never look like that if I would try it. I guess I have to go and buy cookies like that!
DeleteLush bath bombs are so fun! I'm going to have to check out those Halloween ones. I'll admit it, I'm kind of a sucker for holiday-themed things
ReplyDeleteI want to go to the Lush store to check them out too. I am sure they smell incredible. I really love stuff like that a lot!
DeleteI've seen Hotel Transylvania and it was pretty cute, I enjoyed it. I love Halloween and scary movies, I really want to go to a "haunted" place one day.
ReplyDeleteI really need to check out that movie too. Well, it's almost October so the perfect time for movies like that.
DeleteI also love scary movies a lot! And haunted places! We have been to a couple of them in Ohio and it was so much fun!
Your cat is so cute! Looks like one I used to have - a black one called Emo. I've never even heard of that movie, but I am going to watch it now! Hopefully with some of those cookies, because YUM.
ReplyDeleteAww, that is such a cute name for a cat! Black cats are awesome! I am sure the movie is awesome! Let me know what you think! And I really need some cookies. :)
DeleteDid you ever go to Burg Frankenstein in Mühltal? Apparently they turn it into a haunted castle near Halloween. We were going to go until I found out they're allowed to touch people and carry them off and so on. Heck no.
ReplyDeleteThey carry them off? Haha. That's creepy! No, I haven't been to that place yet but it sounds kind of cool! I am always the victim of things like that!
