Frost on the pumpkin. Sleet on the scarecrow. Blood on the plow. Walk this way? As you are, or were, if now undead. There are many ways and byways to get around to the places with the best candy tonight, and here are some of the sights for becoming very ghoulishly sore eyes that abound, if you choose to look at them in this way as you proceed in and around the Third Street Historical District, trekking on varying paths.

So you plan to go trick-or-treating tonight in the south-to-north blocks that extend from, the stoplights at Vine Street in

Mullets mulling hair extensions, not really fake rugs. Miniature minions and their myriad mini-tarot card readings, along with spell jar making. It’s all part of a hard day’s and night’s work to kick off a killer Halloweekend. (OK, maybe not my best stuff, but as so many of you have messaged me to ask, yes you can reprint as you wish, with credit.)

On that (mid)night before as my new editor at the HSO called it, in an accompanying piece, Halloweekend, with its

It’s the same old story, all over again. You turn a contest into just another fiend … Sorry (terrifying) Triumph, if you happen to show up and do that old ditty, (your version). But the costumes for prizes aplenty are happening, yes, all over again. So here’s where to go on Saturday night, which is all right, but there’s one such contest even on the eve before! (But no Adam, so can’t compete for the couple’s category prize.)

Three nights before the actual witching hour of Halloween, a typical fashion, numerous nightclubs in the Hudson downtown and surrounding

Want to have a Halloween party of 700? Think you have the goods, as in candy? (Check below how I can help.) Or take your kids to places that do, all in a single big block. On Thursday, Halloween in advance, you can do such on Locust Street, kid-friendly, as there’ll be no foul insects here. *** And drop by my nearby place to gather more such stuff, with Joe’s odd as this is the holiday for thus, twist on things, so be prepared. Directions to me and my minions are near the end of this post.

To get in the Hilarious Historic Hudson All Hallows mood way early if you are a Baby Boomer, there is

Ever want to know? Really know? This past weekend’s your chance, but the continuing effort and its imaginative imaging carries forward. The (two) enlightened will tell you. And here is a backstory of what you might find, Going Beyond To Seek The Truth! As Halloween and its spritely spirit awaits. Its spirituality too. And the wisdom will not be abated.

Ever wanted to get an awareness of your-life-situation “reading.” Of what you maybe should have already known. But needed proper

The missiles were first and foremost fired east, at Israel, then back west, then back and forth … Thus it all blows up again, although there obviously is an instigator. The thorny question of who’s most at fault? And how to end the bloodshed? Mister … Can You Ride My White Horse? There are few White Knights. While Rockin’ the Casbah? Maybe modern (classic) music — more than missiles — from Ozzy to the Clash, and yes that’s their name, can help provide an answer to an age-old question.

The horrific war images just keep pouring in, from Israel and Gaza and near the West Bank and virtually everywhere

Doggone it, I wanna go for a walk, while the weather is still less brisk. Go downtown. As I’m the alpha Shop Dog. Not omega like Snoop Dogg. So get the leash. And don’t think about consulting the gerbil first … But do consult my new add, to this post, the second half of the story, at its end separated by a paragraph break — like Halloween bones soon will be.
