Is it too early for Halloween decorations?

October is here... but when is the right time to get the Halloween decorations out?

How early is too early to start thinking about Halloween?

Autumn is here, the days are turning colder and the nights are getting longer.

Shops in many parts of the country are already full of spooky displays and some homes have already started putting up their decorations too.

However, it's only the beginning of October and Halloween doesn't take place until the end of the month.

So, we want to know what YOU think!

Have you seen any decorations already? Do you think it's too early for them or is now a great time to get them up?

Halloween takes place on the 31 October every year and is celebrated in many parts of the world.

It's origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain.

In countries like America, Halloween is taken very seriously with big displays, lots of pumpkins and plenty of spooky costumes.

And many homes here in the UK also decide to decorate their houses, both on the outside as well as inside.

But, when is too early to start getting ready for Halloween?

Perhaps you think as soon as October starts it's time to dust off those spook-tacular decorations and get them up?

Or, maybe you think people should wait until the second half of the month, or closer to Halloween, before they begin pumpkin carving and preparing other ghoulish creations?
