Halloween is finally here and it's shaping up to be significantly different to last year.
2020 was dominated by the coronavirus pandemic and while the presence of the virus can still be felt, it's satisfying to have a few more options on how to celebrate everyone's favourite spooky day this year.
Whether you're venturing out to a Halloween party, going old school and trick-or-treating, or having a horror film session from the comfort of your living room, there's plenty of ways to enjoy October 31.

For some, there's nothing scarier than a Zoom meeting, but for others, the quizzes which became the norm during lockdown are missed.
