Halloween is coming up, and it’s such a fun time of year.

I’m personally one of the biggest Halloween fans I know, and there truly is no holiday like it.

I feel like it’s such a laid-back time, and it obviously has some of the best weather of the year.

I’ve always been a huge fan of scary movies, fall, and just all things Halloween in general.

If you have little ones, I’m sure it’s so fun to see them excited to wear their costumes and go trick-or-treating.

I loved trick-or-treating so much as a kid that I would count down the days until Halloween. I’m pretty sure I trick-or-treated until I was about 16.

I know, embarrassing, right? Now, I love hanging outside with everyone who comes over to hand out candy.

I’ll never stop celebrating Halloween; the traditions just change as you get older.

With that being said, if you plan on going trick-or-treating this year, there’s something you need to be aware of.

Make sure you’re aware of what people are trying to tell you when trick-or-treating this year!

What Do Different Color Pumpkins Mean?

Orange may be the most popular color of pumpkins during the fall season, but you'll more than likely spot a variety of colored gourds on doorsteps in the fall. And yes, they all have a meaning behind them. Good Housekeeping breaks it down:

LOOK: How Halloween has changed in the past 100 years

Stacker compiled a list of ways that Halloween has changed over the last 100 years, from how we celebrate it on the day to the costumes we wear trick-or-treating. We’ve included events, inventions, and trends that changed the ways that Halloween was celebrated over time. Many of these traditions were phased out over time. But just like fake blood in a carpet, every bit of Halloween’s history left an impression we can see traces of today.
