11 Unmistakable Things that Symbolize Halloween
There are certain things that we automatically associate with Halloween. The question is would these things be scary on their own or is it just because we relate them to Halloween and horror movies we suddenly get the chills in the presence.
I thought it would be fun to take a look at 11 things we think are scary and then think about how scary they would be on say 4th of July instead of October 31st. So take a moment to run down some of the obvious things that come to mind when you think of stuff that goes bump in the night on Halloween and see just how scary they really are if they are just in a list.
I may have left a few creepy creatures out of this ghoulish gallery but you decide. I was really trying for the obvious. Browse the photo list below and see if I missed anything or any one.
Things That Scare Us on Halloween
The only thing I can think of that isn't on the list is a cemetery, so I added this one in so the list is complete.
Huguenot Street French Church and Cemetery
