How to Celebrate a Very Special Halloween in 2020

As we slowly make our transition to cooler temperatures and indulge ourselves in pumpkin flavored everything, all eyes are on the ultimate Autumn event: Halloween! We can’t help but be excited when thinking about all the spooky fall fun to be had. 2020 has brought many “new normals,” and Halloween may look a little different this year, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t many creative ways to celebrate the ghostliest night of the year!

We love the idea of a Halloween-themed neighborhood scavenger hunt! Imagine the possibilities as your neighbors rally together to create a fun and interactive yard crawl for kids and adults alike. Watch out the window as children stalk the neighborhood spotting ghouls, ghosts, and goblins. This is the time for over-the-top porch decorations, so don’t be afraid to get creative. For a chilling display, incorporate one of burton + BURTON’s Halloween animatronics, like our bewitching fortune teller complete with a glowing crystal ball. She predicts a wildly fun time!

Make your house stand out from the rest in the scavenger hunt and create a perfectly ghoulish photo frame made of organic balloon garlands adorned with creepy spiderwebs. Add even more interest by incorporating a giant hairy spider or a garland of gauzy white ghosts. Everyone will love to commemorate their Halloween in a special way with a souvenir photograph. Create a neighborhood hashtag so you can easily see all of the fun on social media while also staying socially distanced.
