The MUUZ Girl Guide to Spending Spooky Season with Your Besties

By: Monica Chang

Spooky season isn’t just for Halloween and horror movies – it’s for your girls. Whether it’s planning matching costumes, painting pumpkins, or doing a fall photoshoot, this is your MUUZ guide to making this the most memorable spooky season yet. 

Costume Planning Night 

Half the fun of Halloween is just figuring out what to wear. Sit around with your girls, scroll through MUUZ and Pinterest, make inspo moodboards, and throw ideas out. Whether you’re matching or each doing your own thing, it’s about dressing up, the chaotic energy, and maybe pretending like this year you won’t leave it until the last minute. 

Pumpkin Painting Night 

Painting pumpkins, fall snacks, and cozy playlists – the most perfect fall night. Prepare for a little mess, but that’s honestly the whole point. Light a pumpkin candle, make a fall themed charcuterie board to snack on while you paint, and mix up something super seasonal like an apple cider spritz. It’s creative, cozy, and allows for long meaningful talks and endless laughter. 

Halloween Movie Marathon 

Whether you’re a horror girl or not, there’s a Halloween movie out there for you. From cozy childhood classics to psychological thrillers that have you peeking through your fingers, it’s all about the vibe you create with your girls. Grab your besties, some blankets, themed snacks, and have a movie night that makes the season feel complete.

Fall Photoshoot Day 

Pick a spot like a pumpkin patch, a fall themed coffee shop, or a local park, and have your own little photoshoot. It’s the perfect excuse to use your digital camera, wear your favorite fall fit, grab a pumpkin spiced latte, and turn your camera roll into your dream fall Pinterest board. 

Cozy Baking Night 

Nothing says fall like baking something sweet on a chilly night in. Think cinnamon rolls, pumpkin muffins, apple cider donuts, or anything that makes your kitchen smell like fall and sweet memories. Blast some music and bake with your besties. It’s warm, comforting, and a guaranteed night to remember despite being so low effort. 

Spooky season only comes once a year, so make the most of it. Do all the little things that make it feel special: the cozy nights in, the romanticization of the season, the laughter with your girls. These are the moments you’ll look back on when the season’s long gone.
