Spooky Videos From Geoff Castellucci And VoicePlay

Geoff Castellucci is the super-low bass singer from the a cappella band VoicePlay. He just recently released a cover of the Monster Mash. Looking through his and VoicePlay's videos, I found a few more songs you might want to add to your Halloween playlist.

Krispy Kreme Halloween Donuts



I went to my local Krispy Kreme and bought a dozen of their Halloween donuts. I asked to get them in the Spellbook box, but found out it had to be specific Halloween donuts to get that box. I wanted a couple of pumpkin spice donuts, so no cool box for me. The donuts are good, they taste like... donuts. lol

New Halloween T-Shirt

Long time followers know I used to show off my collection of spooky t-shirts. You can see old shirt posts here. I only got one new one this year. Actually, I bought it on clearance last year after Halloween. But, this is the first time I'm wearing it. 

Has anyone seen any men's Halloween t-shirts at Walmart this year? I've been checking my local Walmarts for over a month and haven't seen any. I see them in women's and children's but no men's.

Halloween Event In Pokémon GO

 


I'm sure most of you don't play the game. I've been playing every day for the past five years. I don't see me stopping any time soon!

The Halloween Event is usually one of the bigger events in Pokémon GO and this year doesn't disappoint. The event runs from Oct. 15 until Oct. 31. Five new Pokémon are being added to the game. Pumpkaboo, Gourgeist, Phantump. Trevenant and Galarian Slowking. The new shiny is Spinarak. Pikachu, Piplup and Drifblim are wearing hats.

The following infographics explain most of the spooky happenings for the next two weeks.







If you've made it this far, please add me.

Does your local library show movies? Ours does. The Akron-Summit County Public Library Main Library shows movies every Thursday night on the big screen in the auditorium. During October they show a couple of old horror flicks. This year you have to register before you can see the movie.
