I have orange lights on my house and a plug-in Jack O'Lantern in the window (he has a very evil grin) and pumpkins, wreaths, a wind-chime thing-y of skulls and bones and window decals of scary cats and cartoon witches. I've a beautiful wooden statue of the Headless Horseman and lots and lots of indoor decorations, too. I LOVE Halloween. It's so much better than Christmas. Low stress, good weather, and you don't go broke preparing for it.

"Shall I give you a kiss?" Peter asked and, jerking an acorn button off his coat, solemnly presented it to her.
