Seasonal Topic

Hi, welcome to the first edition of seasonal topic for this year- I'm Avira, and am so excited for another year of Griffin Post! This edition, we will be talking about things to do this Halloween, Halloween costumes, and trending music.

 

If you’re still looking for an amazing costume, here are some costumes that will be everywhere this year. Costumes from popular movies include Elphaba/Glinda from Wicked, Huntrix from Kpop Demon Hunters, and Steve from Minecraft.  Other popular costumes include Labubu, Kendrick Lamar from his Superbowl halftime show, and pop princesses like Sabrina Carpenter, Taylor Swift, and Olivia Rodrigo.

 

Looking for things to do this Halloween other than trick-or-treating? Some fun activities include carving pumpkins, having a scary movie night, or decorating spooky cookies/cupcakes. Some pre-organized events near us include fall festivals, costume contests, and halloween trivia nights. 

 

The start of Fall 2025 marks an explosion in the pop music world. Since K-Pop Demon Hunters was released in August, it has been the most viewed song, recently going platinum on the 8th of October. Last week, it was pushed down from number one song to number thirteenth, taken down by Taylor Swift's whole new album, The Life of a Showgirl. Tate Mcrae’s new single, Tit for Tat, was released on September 26, remaining at the number 3 spot, until the release of Swift’s new album. Meanwhile, Sabrina Carpenter recently also released her new album, Man’s Best Friend, including some chart topping hits. 

 

The 2025 MTV music awards were held on September 7th, with the most notable winners being: Sabrina Carpenter, for Best Pop Artist award and Best album award , APT. by Rose and Bruno Mars winning Song of the Year award, and Tate Mcrae, winning song of the summer for her song, Just Keep Watching.

 

Thank you, and see you next time!
