Every year, October rolls around and begins the string of [arguably] the best season of the year. From Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and the celebration of the New Year, the festive spirit of these last few months is almost magical. Halloween sparks the beginning of the festivities, with this time of the year also being referred to as “Spooky Season.” According to Urban Dictionary, spooky season is: “the time of year around Halloween, where everyone gets spooky vibes.” I’m here to help provide those spooky vibes with music, movies, and series to get us all feeling a little spookier this October.
