There’s not a whole lot of halloween spirit where I am. There are just a few houses with some decorations. People don’t seem to be into it. While I love halloween and gothic decor and architecture (and my wardrobe is 90% black) I do not like horror and gore. Not a fan of serial killing, torture, and possession so I likely will will never see any if these movies. I’m more of a “Hubie Halloween” and “Hocus Pocus” PG-13 type. Lol But I will say Ireland sounds dreamy...rain, fog, and all it’s mystery. I haven’t seen fog in a very long time.

Lots of people don't care for horror films, and that's cool. I don't care for other entertainment that some people adore. And I think we can like the trappings of something (dress, style, mood) without going all in. I've never responded well to the 'policing' of people's interests, i.e. 'you're not a true fan unless you like/know X or Y'. To each their own!

I would find it hard to live somewhere without some kind of seasonal change. You can cope with the cold/ heat if you know it's not permanent. Although, you can always relay rely on the rain here! 😄
