5 Halloween Events To Go For And Get Into The Spooky Spirit
Halloween is approaching and spooky cobwebs and blood decor seem to be a staple in every store in Singapore right now (except for those who decided to give a pass on the spookiness and go into Christmassy, festive vibes straight.)
Although Halloween is not a major event that most Singaporeans participate in since we already have a whole month of horror during the Hungry Ghost Festival, there are some events happening around Singapore for horror lovers!
Scroll on to check out our favourite Halloween events!
