Halloween 2020


I decided to do a story on Halloween, there was just so much content that I could find. 

I went on a road trip and started taking pictures, taking you through what most people go through with their families to get ready for one of the Biggest days of the year Halloween.

This year I noticed the decorations and pumpkins started appearing after Thanksgiving, and some really go all out with full displays of whatever is scary.   


In Grande Prairie there are 2 massive warehouse stores both set up and they have every costume imaginable for purchase.

The old favorites are still front and center, as Batman still has a costume out and so does Superman, they really have stood the test of time. 
Masks featuring Chucky, Jason from Friday the 13th Fame, plus all kinds of clown masks and T shirts.

Wherever your imagination takes you I am sure you will be able to find a costume or mask 

Being the city has an average age of 32 Halloween is a Big Deal every year but especially this year, even with the pandemic people feel caged up and want to get out.

I have seen several online polls and I believe it will be busy on the streets with the youngsters gathering up as much candy as they can find.

Some might not be aware of this, but Halloween is a huge economic driver it is one of the largest shopping seasons of the year.

I tried to have fun with this story using humour to help engagement for the overall story, I feel that people have enough pressure right now, I wasn’t into making it too serious.

Enjoy
