You know it’s that time of the year when the internet is filled with prank ideas and spooky makeup tricks. By this time each year, people in North America are preparing their Halloween costumes and getting ready to attend parties. India too has been catching on these trends and, over the years, we’ve seen a lot of commercial spaces being set up for Halloween. This year, however, things are different, and many countries are going back into rigorous lockdowns to fight COVID-19. So, Halloween 2020 will have to be an at-home affair, guys. But we bet there’s nothing eerier than watching a scary movie at home…ALONE! So, to get you back into the spooky festive spirit, we’ve curated a Halloween watchlist for this weekend. Check it out, if you have the guts.
