I've been looking forward to this for months!

I love Halloween and the Halloween season!

As usual I made this list together with my very esteemed and talented girlfriend (we only have one TV)!

I'm going to Japan for two weeks on October 18th so I'm gonna try to get through as many of these as I can by then but who knows maybe the little screen on the plane will have WOLF'S HOLE!!!

A couple continuing trends from my Hoop-Tober lists past: alligators, Frankensteins, scary wax museums, Carpenter
