October is one of the most popular months to plan, organize, and celebrate all things spooky. It’s also the second-to-last month of the year (so it’s a bit of a goodbye month). The weather gets cooler, and with that comes an eerie sense of calm. In other words, October is a perfect time to focus on what you love and what you hate about autumn. Luckily, we have plenty of clever ways to channel your inner grouchiness during this season. With that in mind, check out this guide for our favorite activities and events happening in October 2022.
What is happening in October 2022?
October is a short season, which can make it feel even shorter when planning your calendar. With autumn colors finally starting to appear, you can enjoy the change of the season with activities like apple picking and pumpkin-flavored treats. There are also several autumn festivals and celebrations to celebrate the end of summer. The first full moon of October is also known as the Harvest Moon or the Corn Moon, and it’s a great time for outdoor activities like hiking, boating, and enjoying the changing leaves. In general, the weather is cooling down and changing colors, so it’s a great time to take a trip to the country or visit a botanical garden.
Scary stuff to do
If you love the idea of getting into the Halloween spirit but find the prospect of dressing up a little too daunting, consider visiting one of the many haunted houses in your area. These attractions are designed to get you to explore your fears, and they can be a really effective way to work through some emotional issues. If you’d rather avoid getting into a relationship with your anxieties, a visit to a haunted house is a great way to experience fear without getting stuck in the cycle of constantly avoiding it. Many haunted houses also include a maze or activity that helps you unpack some of your anxieties and release your emotions so you leave with a new perspective and even some closure.
Celebrate the season
Autumn is a beautiful season, and it’s a great time of year to enjoy the changing leaves. You can experience the season by going for walks in the park or exploring different botanical gardens. You can also try your hand at autumnal crafts like making cornstalks or harvesting your own pumpkins. If you’re interested in getting into gardening, autumn is a great time to plant seeds indoors. You can also enjoy harvesting your fall crops like pumpkins, and corn while they’re still sweet and fragrant.
