Want your Halloween party to look like this? 🎃👻 Good news: there's a guide!

From the pages of the 1930s Children's Party Book by Staley's Syrups, the book served as a comprehensive guide for throwing parties for various occasions — from decorations and costumes to recipes and games.

If you've ever wondered how they threw parties nearly a century ago, this illustration is a fun place to start!

Have you ever noticed hints of romance in old halloween cards? 💘 That's because historically, Halloween was celebrated as a romantic matchmaking holiday!

For centuries, people believed Hallows' Eve allowed a glimpse into the future and spirit realm, making it a popular time for fortune-telling, divination games, and matchmaking parties (rather than scary monsters). 🔮

These vintage postcards are a glimpse into how differently the holiday was once viewed!
