At most places Halloween parties and trick or treating is cancelled, or they are doing it in a very minimalistic and restricted way, which is no fun. 2020 has shown us a side of life we otherwise just saw in Hollywood movies, Contagion remember? With the pandemic though we’ve learned new things – a higher (like insanely high) level of hygiene, social distancing, self-quarantine and now, Holidays in isolation. But, this doesn’t necessarily have to be as sad as it sounds. After all, we are human and we can find silver lining in every black cloud. We’ve survived the ice age, the volcanic super-eruption, world wars, atom bombs and a thousand natural calamities across the globe. We will survive 2020 too, and with grace.

So, add cheer to the Holidays because that is the whole point of Holidays. Here are a few ways you can make 2020 Halloween fun and memorable.

Movie Night

Movie night may sound cliché, but it always works. Do your homework, select the movies or series you want watch, get some great food and curl up on your couch for a night long of streaming. To add to the Halloween spirit, stream scary movies or have fancy looking Halloween food/snacks. Add a little more fun to it, put up a big screen in your backyard and stream scary movies outdoors.

Here’s some awesome Halloween food for a fun-filled spooky movie night:

Go Camping 

If you are not an outdoors person, the very idea of having to spend the night out in the wilderness can be spooky enough. Plus, this is a great way to keep social distancing too. If you haven’t already, do it, the experience will be worth it.
