In reply to Nina. The best way to get into the Halloween spirit, I've found, is to watch as many horror movies as you can throughout October, and find some time each day to do something, well, Halloweeny. Even if there's not all that much Halloween spirit over there in Sweden, you have the power to ensure that your home is filled with as much of it as possible. Watch scary movies. Read scary stories. Decorate. Dress up. Make the most of it while it's here!

I love Halloween, always have and it’s growing every year for me. I
live in Sweden where Halloween is just something for kids and not even
that much. A few kids dress up and go bus eller godis (trick or
treating) and they knock on -10 doors and half of the doors that
actually open doesn’t even know it’s halloween. It’s really depressing
for a person like me. I do my own Halloween candy and decorations. I
probably buy more pumpkins than all of my neighbourhood do all together.
I love fall and all that it brings. I’m not a party women, (yeah, I’m a
23 year old women, leaving by the countryside in a cozy house with my
husband I have dogs and cats), I’m more of a family type of girl. I love
mystic and myths about different creatures, I’m actually writing my own
fantasy book. Anyway, to sum up, I love Halloween, I love being
creative, but my depressive country is bringing my Halloween spirit down
and my wonder is, how do you stay in Halloween spirit when it all feels
so depressing and how do you celebrate it at home with you husband?

Thanks
