Let’s be real for a minute: Halloween isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. And you know what? That’s completely okay. While some people love the spooky costumes, the haunted houses, and the endless supply of candy, some of us feel anxious or uncomfortable with the whole idea. Maybe you don’t like scary stuff, or perhaps the thought of trick-or-treating and knocking on strangers’ doors or going to a Halloween party makes your kids cringe. No worries—you’re not alone!
At Nine Scoops, we’ve created a Halloween collection that takes the pressure off the spooky stuff. Instead, our designs focus on positivity, healthy habits, and fun—making Halloween feel good for everyone, including those who prefer a low-key celebration.

Why It’s Normal Not to Like Halloween
First things first: if Halloween makes you feel uneasy, you’re not weird. Halloween can be overwhelming for so many reasons. Maybe you don’t like the jump scares, the pressure to come up with a “cool” costume, or the idea of being at a party with a bunch of people you don’t know. Or maybe, it’s just not your vibe—and that’s perfectly valid. And for our kids, it can be overwhelming too. Asking for candy at strangers’ doors, dressing up in costumes, or going to a party might make them feel nervous or anxious. If your child doesn’t want to participate, you’re not alone, and they aren’t either!
The good news? You don’t have to fit into the traditional Halloween mold. There’s no rule that says you or your child have to love Halloween to enjoy the fall season. It’s easy to feel like you’re supposed to get into the Halloween spirit because that’s what everyone else seems to be doing, but you don’t have to participate in a way that feels uncomfortable. It’s all about doing what works for you. If that means skipping the haunted house and doing something low-key instead, that’s totally fine.

Putting a Positive Spin on Halloween with Nine Scoops
If you’re someone who isn’t thrilled about traditional Halloween celebrations, you might still want to get into the festive mood—just without all the scary stuff. That’s why we came up with Nine Scoops’ Halloween collection. We wanted to create designs that celebrate the season in a fun and fright-free way, so everyone can feel comfortable joining in, even if you’re not a fan of spooky things. Our shirts, hoodies, and tote bags are designed with healthy habits and uplifting messages in mind, so both you and your little ones can enjoy the season in your own way.
Accessories
1. Good Vibes Only
Instead of creepy or frightening themes, we focus on uplifting, playful messages. For example, our “Boo-lieve” design is perfect for adding a bit of Halloween spirit without the scares. It’s a way to celebrate that feels more cheerful, whether you’re a parent or a kid who just wants something a little more light and fun.

2. Healthy Habits for the Whole Family
Let’s be honest: Halloween is often about candy, and while there is no shame in that, it’s nice to have a bit of balance, right? Our collection promotes healthy habits, reminding both kids and adults to embrace self-care. It’s a great way to add some mindful vibes to a holiday that can sometimes feel sugar-overloaded. Whether it’s staying active or getting your daily dose of sunshine, our designs like “Wicked Clean” and “Vitamin D for Healthy Bones” aim to put a smile on your face and help you feel your best.

3. Cozy, Low-Key Fun
If your idea of a good Halloween is staying in, we’ve got you covered. Our cozy hoodies and soft tees are perfect for a relaxed evening at home, whether you’re watching a family-friendly movie or enjoying a quiet night. If you’re heading out for a low-key adventure like pumpkin picking or a walk through the fall leaves, our tote bags add a touch of festive fun without the fright.

Tips for a Low-Stress Halloween
If you or your child don’t love the usual Halloween activities, here are a few tips to make the holiday more enjoyable:
- Create New Traditions: Instead of trick-or-treating or attending parties, create your own family-friendly traditions. Try baking fall treats, having a cozy movie night, or decorating pumpkins without the pressure of costumes.
- Skip the Scary Stuff: If your child (or you!) doesn’t like scary things, skip the haunted houses and scary movies. Instead, focus on activities that make you feel happy and relaxed. There are plenty of non-spooky ways to celebrate fall!
- Practice Self-Care: For adults and kids alike, Halloween can be stressful if it doesn’t feel comfortable. If you or your child need a break, take it. It’s important to honor those feelings and do what makes you both feel good.
