With Halloween falling on a Tuesday this year, many of us will unfortunately (or fortunately for homebodies like us) be staying in on the spookiest night of the year. But that doesn't mean you can't have just as much fun as you would going out. For those who aren't going trick or treating this year with little ones, or must work the next day, a cozy night with friends and family (or on your lonesome) can be just as thrilling and spooktacular when you know how to set the right atmosphere and have the perfect Halloween essentials in place. We're talking an infinite number of sweets, light-hearted and gory movies, cozy blankets, Halloween decorations, and more.
