Danny Elfman lives forever

Willoughby Thom | Monday, October 31, 2022

“I’m so happy, happy.”  There is no better way to describe Danny Elfman’s Halloween show at the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday, Oct. 29 other than surreal. From the moment Elfman took the stage, I felt like I was in a dream. I have been an Oingo Boingo fan my entire life — if you didn’t

Book Nook: ‘Witchcraft’ as self-care

Caitlin Brannigan | Wednesday, October 12, 2022

To set the mood for Halloween, I read Patti Wigington’s “Witchcraft for Healing: Radical Self-care for your Mind, Body, and Spirit.” I have no experience with witchcraft and didn’t know what to expect. I failed to connect well with the spookier aspects of the book, but its emphasis on self-care resonated with me. Its focus

The Watcher House

Caroline Collins | Monday, October 3, 2022

I grew up in a quaint, suburban neighborhood in New Jersey, exit 135 for those familiar with the Garden State Parkway. Picture newly built homes with attached garages, families with big dogs, soccer games on Sundays and a picturesque downtown with all the essentials — the bagel shop, the local diner and the penny candy

Today is the first day of fall and spooky season is upon us! What better way to get into the mood than to put on a good halloween movie. From Hocus Pocus to Texas Chainsaw Massacre, halloween classics range a variety of genres. And while these classics are mentioned on every list, I thought I

‘Halloween Kills’ all hope in the franchise

Justin George | Friday, November 5, 2021

Do you ever feel like you’ve been cheated? As the crowd streamed out of my local cinema after the 6 p.m. showing of “Halloween Kills,” I began to ponder where David Gordon Green and company went wrong. Green seemed to have the “Halloween” franchise under control with the release of 2018’s “Halloween,” which was by

Power ranking my childhood Halloween costumes

Aidan O'Malley | Thursday, October 15, 2020

The leaves are turning, the temperature is dropping and with every passing day, we lose a few more seconds of sunlight. You know what that means: it’s October! And if it’s October, then you know what that means: it’s Halloween! Objectively the second-best holiday (behind only Christmas and just ahead of St. Patrick’s Day), Halloween

Which witch are you?

Lexi Kilcoin | Wednesday, October 14, 2020

Come little children I’ll take thee away into a land of enchantment … Is what I would say if I was an evil Sanderson sister from Salem, Massachusetts. You heard me right. It’s officially spooky season! Halloween might look a little different this year than most, however we can’t let that stop us from having

What about Thanksgiving?

Dessi Gomez | Thursday, November 14, 2019

With the first real snow on Monday and about two weeks until Thanksgiving Break, we are in the full swing of the holiday season. I always find myself getting so excited once October hits because there is still time to prepare for Halloween and embrace the fall season. But every year, without fail, once Halloween
