Even Halloween lovers need a vacation now and again. And that’s exactly what I’m doing for the holidays: heading nearly 1,400 north of the TX to enjoy some snowy weather. (There may or may not be wendigos where I’m going. I can’t be sure…)
So due to a busy travel schedule, lack of reliable Internet access and the opportunity to enjoy hanging out with my family in the middle of nowhere, I’ll be taking a month-long break for writing new posts.
Spooky Little Halloween will resume weekly posts starting Monday, January 16 with a preview of what to expect in 2017!
I’ll still be checking in on social media during this time, so now is the perfect opportunity to follow me on your favorite sites if you aren’t already:

And just in case you need your Halloween fix while I’m taking my break, here are some of my favorite posts and series from 2016 for your reading pleasure.
