Different Ways To Profit From Halloween Creatively

Oh, now you’ve gone and done it.  You’ve opened up a whole big fat can of worms.  Halloween is possibly one of the most profitable ‘holidays’ known to mankind.  In many areas it surpasses even Christmas, when comes to financial gain.  And the fact that it’s fun and profitable makes it just that much more attractive.  If you are a major Halloween aficionado, this is your opportunity to take your favorite holiday and make it count… All the way to the bank.  Of course, you may need a little help getting started, but that’s what sites such as go-aagp.org, just as an example, are for.  Even if you’ve got credit that is scarier than the biggest haunted house on the block, you can get the money that you need to start your Halloween business.

 

Nothing’s Scarier Than a Clown

 

This is something that any child knows and most adults, whether they will admit it or not.  Whether you want to make your home into a haunted house and have people traipsing through it for approximately 2 months out of the year, or you want to turn your backyard of a good couple of acres, into the scariest cemetery that ever was, make sure that a scary clown is part of the attraction.  There’s nothing creepier.  Don’t believe me?  Just ask Stephen King.

 

Finding Haunted Everything… Even the Kitchen Sink

 

Buying the supplies that you’re going to need is best done in one of the following fashions:

 

?         ‘After Halloween sales’ are the best ways to pick up cheap Halloween garb, particularly at party supply stores.  It won’t hurt to take a year to stock up and open your business next Halloween.  You will make your money stretch just that much further.

?         Shopping online is one of the best ways to save money with ‘online only’ sales, discounts and coupons.

?         Don’t be shy about hitting thrift stores, rummage sales and estate sales.  You’d be surprised how many people are getting rid of their old Halloween stuff, in favor of something new.  Sometimes that creepy broken down stuff makes the best Halloween decorations.

 

Probably the biggest decision you’re going to need to make is just how creepy and scary to go.  Too scary and the kids are going to be petrified, poor little things.  Not scary enough and the teens and adults are going to be bored, out of their skin… which could be relatively effective considering the season.

Is There Such a Thing as a Haunted Halloween Costume?

We have certainly all heard of a haunted house or a haunted ship or some other physical location that boasts ghosts and eerie sounds or things that go bump in the night; but what about clothing? Can it be haunted by the spirits of the dead as well? Can a mummy costume make you travel back in time to ancient Egypt, or perhaps a Catwoman Halloween Costume will cause you to start scratching and meowing with an evil glint in your eye!

Clothes make the Man

There are thousands of stories about people who have put on a piece of clothing and felt strange powers coursing through their body. Like someone who dons a pair of shoes then starts walking somewhere they’ve never been. Or wearing a suit that was once worn by a Civil War soldier and suddenly starting to imagine you’re back in one of the bloodiest battles of all time. Could that clown costume that nobody rents from the costume shop have some strange powers that no one wants to talk about? Hmmm.

Old Tales

You might say that movie horror creatures were derived from someone’s nightmares like Freddy Kruger, Jason and of course the historical demonic creatures like Wolfman, Frankenstein and Dracula. Certainly they were figments of someone’s imagination. But what if donning one of those costumes could instill the traits of the character they portray? Now THAT would be a haunting of the fourth kind! Some people say they won’t wear certain costumes because they become afraid of what they might become. I say go for it! If you can find a haunted Halloween costume you will be one in a million. Honestly, there’s probably no such thing as a haunted Halloween costume…or is there???

Breast Cancer Myths

There are a lot of bad habits that can contribute to breast cancer such as smoking, drinking too much, and a poor diet, but there are also a lot of myths out there that women believe as fact, and they are simply not true. One myth going around like a bad rumor is that wearing an underwire bra will increase your risk of getting breast cancer. The thought was that the pressure of the bra on the lymphatic system would cause toxins and carcinogens to accumulate, thus contributing to breast cancer. This is simply not true. You cannot get breast cancer from your bra.

Even More Silly Myths and Important Facts

Another myth that should be put to death is that most breast lumps are cancerous. This is absolutely not true. Women get all kinds of lumps over their lifetime, and 80% of them are benign (non-cancerous). It is always good to have a mammogram, however, to prove one way or another. Another school of thought is that women with breast implants have a greater risk than those who do not have them. This has also been proven to be false. You may have also heard that you can get breast cancer from antiperspirant, which is being proven false as well. More research is needed, but it doesn’t seem to have a link. It is a common thought, and many companies now make anti-perspirants that are all natural, which is not a bad thing, and definitely worth trying if you are worried about parabens causing cancer.

Someone with breast cancer will help debunk these silly myths!  You should definitely  learn the facts and fakes about breast cancer, and take good care of yourself. Those are the two best ways to stay healthy and greatly improve your health.

Prepare to go Ghost Hunting

Ghost hunting can be serious business. Of course, you may or may not believe in ghosts, but the thrill of ghost hunting can be extremely fun and obviously a little bit scary. Ghost hunting is a true thrill and sometimes a shrill. Even if you don’t believe in ghosts, just going to a new place that is supposed to be haunted, or seeing an old building that has some definite character, can be extremely fun and a rewarding and great experience with friends.

 

Watch the Television Shows

To get prepared to go ghost hunting, you might seriously consider watching a few ghost hunting shows. This is a great way to get prepped for what may lie ahead and get a better idea of what to expect. It might also scare you away from actually going. Just kidding! But in all seriousness, watching some of these shows might make the evening more fun.

 

Wear the Right Clothes

You will also want to wear some fun clothes. You might consider going to a site like http://bustedtees.com to find some t shirts that have funny sayings on them. Surely they have some ones that have either ghosts or sayings about haunted things on them.

 

Finding shirts like this can be a great way to add a little extra to the evening and make the activities a little bit more fun. It can also help you be a little less scared when you go ghost hunting if you wear some shirts that are comical.

Famous Celebrity Hauntings

If you enjoy a taste of the unnatural, then you will enjoy the numerous celebrity hauntings that occur each year.  They involve celebrity ghosts and their stories have made them famous.  Skeptical?  Don’t be.  Youceleb celebrity style site has proof that these experiences happened and may keep happening for many years.

Jim Morrison’s Ghost

One creepy haunting happened with Jim Morrison’s ghost.  Individuals falsely assume that a trip to Paris where he died is necessary to unearth this demon.  On the contrary, you can meet up with the ghost just about anywhere.  He was once seen at a Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles ironically called Mexico. The haunting took place in the bathroom of the restaurant.  According to sources from aol.com this restaurant was once a workshop and recording studio for The Doors.  Thus, it makes sense that the ghost would come here.  Interestingly, the vocal booth was right where the bathroom sits.  And the restaurant manager admits that funky things happen in that spot all of the time.  If you want to visit the ghost, then you might need to visit the restaurant.

Farrah Fawcet

Another intriguing haunting occurred with two celebrities – one dead the other alive.  On this occasion, Tori Spelling was looking to contact her dead father.  She was at her house alone when she realized she was talking to Farrah.  These messages were relayed to the entire family and even made it back to the folks at the Oxygen network.  Perhaps this is why Tori’s show was canceled.

Keep your eye out for celebrity ghosts.  They are everywhere and may end up haunting you.
