I used to enjoy Halloween a lot, but then I worked in a party store last October (need I say more?). Having to deal with customers who can't understand that some costumes are already sold out by the week before Halloween
and leave piles of costume pieces and packages in the dressing rooms, and having managers breathing down my neck to push the costume accessories, not to mention hearing "Thriller" every 5 minutes (a good song, which is now also ruined for me), killed most of my Halloween spirit.
But there are rumors of a showing of The Rocky Horror Picture Show here on campus this Halloween (with the audience participation), which could very well rekindle my spirit.
