Keep the jack-o'-lantern lit.
Back in the early aughts, like a lot of goths and goths-by-association, I adored the Halloween parties at the Blue House. The host, seedmoon, moved out of the Blue House years ago, many years before I moved in not far up the street. The Blue House has been repainted grey and fixed up quite a bit. seedmoon used to enlist the help of his housemates and neighbors for the monumental effort that his Halloween parties were, but the neighborhood no longer looks like a place where that kind of thing happens.
So it cheered me up when I saw at the former Blue House a skeleton sitting on the front porch with several pumpkins on the steps, plus orange lights in the windows. Months ago I happened to be walking by and I told one of the current residents what used to go on there. Can parties haunt a house? What about the entire roast suckling pig that was in the basement every year?
Yeah, I miss those parties. The Devil Girl House is in a good location for throwing one, but I'm not sure it's big enough. And I'd need at least acquiescence from my neighbors. And I'd need a crew, although Tacoma Girl has volunteered as tribute. A project for next year, maybe. Maybe.
