Is Summerween a real holiday? Where did it come from?
Summerween originates from the TV show Gravity Falls, where characters celebrate Halloween in the summer. Because it is based on a Disney Channel show, it is not observed as a national holiday. But, many fans of the show have adopted it as an annual celebration!
What day should I celebrate?
According to the Disney animated show Gravity Falls, this holiday officially falls on June 22nd. However, you can celebrate this holiday any time in the summer, so June, July, and August are all fair game. Pick a date that works for you, and start planning an awesome summer Halloween party.
What are fun Summerween Ideas?
Try a unique Summerween activity like watermelon carving or summer trick or treating. Celebrating Halloween during the summer is so much fun for kids and adults alike. Try gathering friends for a spooky backyard movie night, a haunted pool party, or a fun craft party with a scary twist. You can also try a murder mystery party for adults or a summer Halloween costume contest for kids!
A great hack is to repurpose Halloween decor for your spooky summer party. This can include jack-o-lanterns, bowls of your favorite Halloween candy, or anything else one would use for Halloween celebrations.
What are good summer Halloween events?
While this party theme stands on its own, it also makes a great pool party, birthday party, or barbecue. Backyard movie nights are also popular during the summer! Try hosting a horror Halloween movie or haunted house themed event. This concept could even be fun as a block party for your whole neighborhood!
How do I invite people to a Summerween party?
Start by picking a digital Summerween Invitation. Then, customize the text to include key details like the date, location, and time. Add your guests' contact information, then send it off via text or email.
What should I write on my Invitation?
Always include the time, location, date, and guest of honor (if there is one). For this type of event, it is also good to note if guests should plan to wear a costume or not! If you are planning a summer pool party, consider letting your guests know if they should bring a swimsuit, towel, or sunscreen.
