Halloween 2026
It’s here folks! The Halloween season of 2026 has arrived! And in classic Grimey fashion, it took the first whispers of fall and about 7 bags of pumpkin shaped Reese’s to wake me from my creative slum(p)ber. Here’s a bit of what’s been cooking…
Firstly, you’ll notice pretty quickly, if you’re not already in the know, that LP will be changing—and has changed—during the however-long hiatus. LP is now being run solo by me, Grimey. You’ll hear a lot more about it in some of the upcoming episodes.
Speaking of episodes! Friday Night Frights is back! EVERY Friday in the month of October, you’ll be getting a new LP episode! I’ve already got three in the can as I’m typing this, with two more to record. As long as everything goes according to plan, we should have a full month of Frights ahead of us. In the meantime, enjoy this BRAND SPANKIN’ NEW episode to kick off the season!
In this (sort of) special episode, it’s officially 5 years of Leftover Pizza Podcast! Five fucking years!! Somehow. I asked you all on the socials about a month or more ago to hit me with your best spooky questions and you’s DID NOT disappoint! (Also, be sure to rate, review and sub. All that helps a great deal! Thanks in advance!)
Next, I’ve written a couple fun little pieces for you to enjoy immediately. You can start here for a quick look at part 3 of Vintage Halloween Trick-or-Treat Bags! I have a good deal of these things laying around here so expect to see more very soon! After that, check here for an exciting one I’ve been waiting to unleash since last year—the Pepsi Frito Lay Monster Bash 1993 Promotional Folder! This thing has been sitting in my basement for a couple years now and it is FULL of awesome promotional goodness I think you’ll love!
And, hopefully, that’s just the beginning. I’m a little behind on this year’s junk food reviews but bear with me, they’re coming. I also won’t be doing a 2026 Halloween Highlights this year. I have to be honest… I don’t really do much during this time of year aside from grocery hunting and decorating. I don’t know how many of you really care to see me talk about when, where and what I found at so and so grocer 12 or more times. If there is anything noteworthy enough, I’ll just make an entire post about it here.
So that’s what I’ve got for ya’s. I want to thank everyone for being with me here in 2026 and following along. I hope to have your continued support as I figure out exactly what LP is going to look like going forward.
Thank you for reading and, as always…
LET THE HAUNTING SEASON BEGIN!
