Whether you’re seeing this post in real time or you’ve just resurfaced for a new spooky season and you’re catching up on all your faves, you may be asking yourself…
Where the heck is Spooky Little Halloween?
As of March 2025, I am taking an extended break from traditional social media platforms.
WHY? Well…
The list is nearly as long as the reasons I love Halloween, but the TL;DR version is this: I am TIRED of trying to fight against platforms that feel volatile, unpredictable, and, quite frankly, have broken their core promise of connecting me with a community that I’ve built.
My being present on this platform was NEVER about the metrics it's trying to make me chase these days as a creator—things like going viral, nailing trends, or amassing the most followers possible.
It has always been about connecting with YOU as a fellow Halloween lover.
So I am taking back that control and moving to a new space.
You may know I am on Patreon where I am sharing exclusive content before it ever appears on my site or in a magazine.
I have chosen to use the FREE TIER feature on their site to create my own social media feed.
Over there, you’ll find a lot of what you’re used to seeing from me—recent spooky small business purchases, cool articles I’m finding, new posts from the blog, updates on magazine sales, and fun Halloween photos and videos.
While I know not all of you will come with me, my hope for those that DO choose to make this shift with me is that we’ll become more connected again and can create a new space for my spooky little Halloween community.
Now, the account that you’re seeing this on WILL remain present on this platform. And it’s entirely possible I may come back to traditional social media or move somewhere new.
But for now, stepping away and using a space that gives ME as a creator and YOU as a follower more control is the best decision I can make.
I hope you will join me at patreon.com/spookylittlehalloween.
xo, Miranda 🎃🖤✨
