Alas, there are changes for Halloween in 2020. Listen up, all ye shadowy friends!
Manhattan's town crier has announced: Everybody must stay home this year, inside their own lairs, webs and protective bubbles instead of attending bone-chilling parties and parades with the usual crowds of undead and prey, um costumed people.
Time to clean rats out of chimneys and tend to bat projects at home! Thankfully Barton the Bartender, an essential worker, can still offer you bottles of wine at the neighborhood wine shop! Reds are the best sellers at this location! Bring your own bag this year, or you will be charged 5 cents!😱

Even in a pandemic life has a veneer of normalcy. There remain pumpkins, eye of newt and tongue of dog to fetch at the local farmers' market.👅
Pets must be walked, and couples dress to take an evening stroll.🧛♂️
This Halloween, ghouls who are spending more time indoors, can try on uncured heads, or hang upside down to relieve their newfound boredom.👻
Dry Bones play peek-a-boo and learn new skills. Face coverings are mandatory to have your fortune told!💀
With no treat-or-treaters to come around this year, phantoms billed as the Cryptkeepers pick up old instruments to play new spooky music within their circle.

Lucky spectral Manhattanites with brownstones exercise by climbing out, then up and down their windows - 10, 000 steps per day everybody!
Little demons sit on the stoop taking a break from their Zoom classes. Stay out of mischief children, and wash those spindly hands!
Like all mindful New Yorkers, when leaving home for essentials, don't forget to wear your face mask.
A safe and Happy Halloween to Spirits and Readers alike from THE SAVVY SHOPPER!
