What do you like to decorate with? That bucket of blood?

I'm excited for Halloween all year round but toward the end of August after I've dealt with the local fairs, I start to really get into it and I normally have my costume ready by mid-September. Like I've said my friend's and boyfriend think that I'm nuts but it's all good :mrgreen:

I really get in the mood around now (beginning of September). It's starting to get colder here, so I'm really in the mood. And now Halloween merchandise is starting to pop up. I put up my decorations in about a week. :)

I"m in the halloween mode NOW!!
Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!

My 13 year old is having 15 of her freinds over & we have alot planned for them to do, can you believe 2 years ago none of the kids ever bobed for apples, my kids have been doing forever!!!
Take care Witchy
P.S. Has anyone got any good ideas for our Adult party?

When do I get into Halloween mode? Let's see...it's starts around November 1st and ends the following October 31st. XP
Seriously though, I think more about Christmas after Halloween. But for some strange reason this year I was thinking about Halloween all year round. Never seemed to happen like that before. It must be the forum!
Right now I'm tempted to dive into those Halloween decorations, but I'm afraid I'll face the wrath of my grandmother if I do! Haha.
This probably seems crazy, crazy, a graveyard theory,
A ghost tried to approach me and got leery.
Ask him a question and he vanished in a second...

I am always looking for new Halloween ideas, but after July 4th I really get into the Halloween mood. Around the second week of September, I am pulling out my decor. I have been already been pulling out some of my smaller items.

24/7 365, Usually any time but I start thinking about it when spring comes and then After the 4th its full blown Halloween until about Nov. 3 when I get a little down cause the season is over and its my favorite of all time. It really hits me when the leaves starts changing colors and Halloween Usa opens and little by little Halloween shows start coming on TV.

I usually start to get into the mood around the beginning or middle of September. :)

Every day is Halloween, I never take down my decorations, just add more every year :P
First day of september usually sends me into a frenzy though, something about the smell in the air and the leaves on the ground. I'm sure you guys know the feeling, there is almost nothing I love more

February. I start in February. Something about the month is just so sweet... my birthday... engineers week... and all those new horror films that come out that time of year to combat "singles awareness day" or what-not.

I deflate a little in June, July... and, once back-to-school is out in stories and I start seeing Halloween... I pick up excitement again. =)

I reach maximum excitement around the first of October.... and carry it through the month. WHEEE!

The subject of this thread suggests that I am ever out of mode. :?
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.
