Somehow over the years Halloween has become cutesy. Most woman dress slutty, all the men dress like memes and it’s all just one big joke now. Originally stemming from a macabre past, the modern tradition has always been to feel as scared as possible. Which is hard to do when Kermit the Frog is walking down the street sipping tea. So, I’ve put together a guide for the best strains to scare you, inducing anxiety and paranoia to make your night as frightening as possible.
Best Strains To Scare You
Green Crack
Green Crack is known for it’s invigorating mental high that keeps you energized and focused. Perfect for over thinking those psychological thrillers you are going to watch tonight.
Jack the Ripper
Jack the Ripper brings thoughts of a serial killer with it’s name alone. A spicy flavor that can cause a disoriented and paranoid high, making you want to check your locks again, and again.
Trainwreck
Trainwreck does exactly that, hits you like a train. You climb aboard the THC train and gain speed with every inhale until you’re slammed into a wall of mind-bending insanity.
Girl Scout Cookies
Girl Scout Cookies will send your brain into a spiral of demented thoughts while you’re too couch-locked to save yourself from those spirits and monsters coming through your TV.
Durban Poison
Durban Poison smells sweet and innocent but this pure sativa’s intoxicating effects will seep into your mind and make you wonder if there might be someone lurking in that dark corner.
Ghost Train Haze
Ghost Train Haze is a strain that is always in costume, as it wears a white sheet of trichomes everyday. The vibrant yet sour flavor will spark your anxiety, perfect for paranormal movies.
Gorilla Glue
Gorilla Glue will adhere you to whatever couch, chair or floor you’re laying on. The perfect strain to blend with one of the sativas above for a paralyzing and frightful evening.
Building The Suspense
Halloween falls on a Tuesday this year, perfect excuse to stay home and get fr-HIGH-tened. If you’re really serious about sending chills down your spine, you need your home to have the right atmosphere. I’m a lover of all horror, so I frequently do the following things to raise my blood pressure.
First, you should gather everything you may want to indulge in. Any cannabis, drinks (especially water), munchies, and all the candy you could possibly eat. You might want to get a candle or two if you don’t have any lying around.
Once you’re home for the evening, open up all of your blinds. Also keep your door unlocked, that’s guaranteed to strike a little bit of fear through your arteries later. For the best effect I would fly solo tonight. Turn off your phone and really detach from reality. Get everything set up for yourself for the night, I recommend building a blanket fort. Light a candle or two, then shut off all the lights.
Movie wise I suggest anything in the supernatural thriller, or suspenseful serial killer realm. Nextflix has some good horror, but Hulu really has the killer selection right now. I’ve picked out a few of my favorites available to stream below.
Hulu
Netflix
Roll up and spark your favorite strain and get ready for a thrilling evening. If you end up peeing your pants, mission success! But you can always cleanse your palette with a classic like, It’s The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown or The Nightmare Before Christmas.
