With Halloween a couple of weeks away, let's visit the Internet to see
what ideas we can find for costumes, recipes, parties, crafts, and just
plain old Halloween fun!
We'll begin at a delightful site, Halloween Net, where you'll find a
Halloween book and movie guide, ghost stories, and even frightening
food ideas. Try mouth-watering recipes like Dead Meat, or learn some
tricks for making this Halloween the best ever!

Absolutely Halloween gets you in the mood for the occasion as soon as the
website loads on your page. You'll find a 3D Haunted House you can print
out for your kids to color. Or, visit the Playground for games, coloring
sheets, mazes, and ideas for decorations. A Scary Night is an interactive
story *you* can participate in, or visit Sounds of Fear for some spooky
Halloween music.

At the Virtual Haunted House, you can go on two different haunted
tours, or take a Halloween trivia test. Participate in a scavenger
hunt, or find some scary Halloween graphics. Middle school children
created this site, and they've done a marvelous job with it.

Another wonderful Halloween site is Mary's Haunted Halloween House for
Ghosts & Witches. The site offers inexpensive costume ideas, such as a
Pirate, a Garbage Bag, or a Bunch of Grapes. Under Devilish Decorations,
you'll learn how to make Monster Footprints, Ghosties, or Wicked, Wicked,
Witches. Of course, the Rancid Food category looks particularly
interesting, with recipes such as Blood Soup or Dead Fingers.

With sites like these, no wonder Halloween is one of my favorite
holidays! Haunted Halloween lets you download your own creepy
Halloween fonts, gives you ideas on how to create a haunted house, and
offers suggestions for fun Halloween parties.

No matter what season, Billy Bear's Playground offers a wonderful time for
kids! Carve your own pumpkin online, or play a Halloween dress up game.
Print out and color Halloween invitations for your own party, or play a
Witch's Wart Game.

If you need help carving your Halloween pumpkin, visit Swan's Pumpkin
Carving Page for patterns you can print out as well as pumpkin carving
tips.

Finally, we'll close with a site that offers a fabulous listing of
Halloween links, Happy Halloween. You'll find links to haunted hotels,
Halloween safety games, and even mazes for you to print out and do at
home. Enjoy!
