cultureOct 27, 2026126971

Creators are posting practical DIY pumpkin-light tutorials, livestream events and local Halloween appearances ahead of October 31. Floral shop Loves in life. floral demonstrated on Amazon Live a DIY pumpkin light that uses water bottle bottoms to diffuse the light and a lighter to curve the top of a plastic pumpkin, and advised viewers they can also buy premade options. Podcasters released a Halloween episode focused on horror games, citing ILLBLEED for Dreamcast and SOMA, and invited listeners to join their Discord. Makers announced in-person market dates: one creator said they will appear at Brighton Bazaar’s BOOzaar/How Bazaar at the Charles River Speedway on Thursday night and at Haus of Codec’s Halloween Extravaganza in Providence on Saturday. Artists and game developers shared seasonal previews and projects, from a Trick or Treat Besties Halloween 2026 mini SAL cross-stitch piece to indie game devs planning spooky-themed releases and updates. Several creators posted Halloween art previews and cosplay or character-themed content tied to established horror films and indie properties, and others highlighted safety and accessibility topics for the season.

Macro of a two-lined spittlebug (Prosapia bicincta) perched vertically on a plant stem, photographed on October 23, 2026, at Zimmerman’s. Facing directly forward and down the stem, the insect features a dark charcoal-black body with a heavy, pitted texture. Bold red lines frame the edges of its head and thorax, with a single red line running down the center of its face between its two small red eyes. Its dark legs clasp the sides of the green and red stem, while the background dissolves into a dark green out-of-focus bokeh.

A picture of a Stinko Pop in-box and out-of-box. Stinko Pops are custom digital illustrations depicting characters as "scented" chibi vinyl figures. This is the Halloween-themed "Spoopy Stinko" for Batzooka, a green slime "goo-tuber". They are entirely made of bright green goo, with a goopy hairstyle covering one of their orange eyes. They have goo wings, a tail, and gargoyle-like feet, with skeletal bones visible inside their goo. They are wearing an ice cream parlor uniform with a pink/purple/maroon color palette inspired by the packaging from The Stuff. They are holding a cup of The Stuff, but instead of the marshmallow-y material from the movie, it is the same green goo as their body. The in-box design has the same striped color palette as the container with splotches of green goo and is The Stuff "scented", with the overflowing cup of goo depicting the scent.

An educational Halloween graphic titled "A Special Halloween" focuses on understanding and accommodating trick-or-treaters with special needs. The graphic features a black background with white and colored text, adorned with Halloween illustrations at the bottom. Content Breakdown • Introductory Text: "Little children all over the world will be knocking on doors for fun on October 31st. Some of the little children WILL have Special Needs. For them, please remember that–" • Bullet Points (marked with pumpkin icons): • The child without a costume or who only wears part of a costume may have sensory issues and physically cannot wear one. • The child who takes forever to pick sweets may have poor motor planning skills. • The child who did not speak to you may not be physically able to. • The child who seems to be grabbing at the sweets in the bowl may have poor fine motor skills. • The child who is upset and crying wants to have fun too but is so frightened and overwhelmed. • Closing Text: "We want all children to be able to enjoy their Halloween. Thank you for caring and helping Children with Special Needs have fun this Halloween." • Footer Attribution: URL for www.facebook.com/thelittlepuddinsblog • Illustrations: A spider, a tombstone reading "R.I.P", a witch's hat, a pumpkin child, a small Frankenstein character, and a young girl dressed as a witch holding a wand.
