It’s Halloween Weekend and who doesn’t love October 31st!?

But maybe you’re too old or too tired to go trick or treating, go to parties or play dress up.  Or maybe you’re holed up avoiding the hurricane.   If you still want to do something to celebrate, get  yourself a set of plastic fangs, a bag of snickers and some microwave popcorn and spend the next few days with our SHUT IN’S GUIDE TO HALLOWEEN WEEKEND 2012!
