There’s something extra special about Halloween when you’re spending it in the comfort of your Highmark apartment home. Whether you're throwing a mini get-together, watching scary movies solo, or crafting a last-minute costume, there's no shortage of festive ways to celebrate. Let’s break down how to do Halloween — Highmark style.

1. Renter-Friendly Halloween Decor You don’t need nails or power tools to get your space spooky. Stick with temporary and damage-free decor like: Command Hooks to hang fake cobwebs, string lights, or garland. Window clings – affordable and easy to remove (check out Target or Michael’s). Battery-powered candles or fairy lights for a cozy glow.

Hit your local Dollar Tree or Five Below for budget-friendly finds that still pack a Halloween punch.

1. Yummy Halloween Snacks No tricks, just treats. Here are a few easy snacks that bring the Halloween spirit: Pumpkin Spice Popcorn – toss popcorn with cinnamon, nutmeg, and a drizzle of white chocolate. Mummy Dogs – wrap hot dogs in crescent roll dough to look like mummies. Apple Monsters – apple slices, peanut butter, and marshmallows for “teeth.”
2. DIY Costumes from What You Already Have You don’t need to spend a fortune to dress up. Some easy, no-buy options: Tourist – Throw on a Hawaiian shirt, sunglasses, and a fanny pack. Smarty Pants – Tape candy Smarties to your jeans. Ghost – Classic sheet over the head still holds up (bonus points for sunglasses). Athlete – Rep your favorite team with jerseys or workout gear you already own.

Whether you're going full spooky or keeping it low-key, Halloween is what you make it — and Highmark is the perfect place to make it your own. Happy haunting!
