It’s almost spooky time

So it’s one of those mornings where I have this weird/manic kinda energy so here’s another post I mentioned doing, spooky season plans.

My intent with this is to have stuff done over spooky season, which includes but is but limited to October (so it might start before September ends and go through most of November).

Feel free to leave recs/thoughts on your Halloween plans. As mentioned I do intended to edit/update this as and when things come up/get confirmed too. (And when I sort through lists and stuff)

There should be another proper post tonight if I head out to town to the cinema.

Edit: 27/9/25
Added some things

Also rewatches have a +

And it’s not attached to a creep

I’m back from my cinema adventure so now it’s post time.

Before that, last night I decided to watch The Conjuring. The new film made me curious cause I’d not seen them before. I saw the first two were on Netflix, so I decided to watch it. My thoughts on it? It was pretty good. I mean it is a haunted house film so it does play out much like you’d expect. There’s a creepy basement, a child makes an invisible friend, someone gets possessed and they have to perform an exorcism. (The poor cute dog dies😭) It hits all the tropes, but it does them well. And also there’s a creepy doll which for some reason the ghost from the house can communicate with? I can tell why Annabelle got a spin off cause that thing looks creepy but also… why would anyone have that in their house??

Today I had weird manic energy in the morning (as evidenced in the spooky season post. Thankfully the weather was good so I headed to town.

First main stop was Tesco and I handed the UFB in. They asked if I wanted to be notified, so I should get a letter at some point. But they both let me have a new one and refunded me as well which was nice.

I got the new Fantastic 4 comic from there, a Minecraft magazine (cause it had a cool torch) and they had one of the new Lego Animal Crossing sets reduced so I got it. It’s Goldie’s Cozy house which is a tiny house with just Goldie. I might build it up later, if not then tomorrow. I also got the meal deal cause I was there and it was ok, though they had Fanta bottles with the horror icons on! Fruit twist had the grabber so that’s the one I got.

When I came out it was raining so I sheltered in a charity shop, got a lil bandana for Naryu (and a book for mums friend). Then I went in smyths. I’d seen they had the Byers House Funko bitty set back in stock so I picked that up cause it’s cute. (I have no other bittys I might have to get them) and I got a lil thing with Jack from Nightmare before Christmas in a coffin. They also had, though too high to reach, Shadow as a buccaneer which I didn’t know was a thing and I want. I mean look at him,

I then went to the cinema. I had forgot my phone cause I charged it (oops) but thankfully I had the email with the code still.

The trailers for both films were mostly uninteresting, though I did see in the Tron Ares one Evan Peters. I knew he was I. It I just didn’t know what role he was playing.

Now thoughts on films, Honey Don’t and Jaws.

There’s a maker festival in town Saturday and I picked something up about it to look at one the train. I had been considering going, but I saw there’s gonna be some of the robots from robot wars there! That makes me super curious so I might go, unless another storm hits.
