1. Important Permits
It's very important for Halloween campers to consider camping safely and legally. Make sure that you get all passes you need when you intend to go camp on protected places - camping, fishing, hunting, what have you.
2. First-Aid Kit
It's important for any camper to come prepared. Camping on Halloween may be the best thing that could ever happen to every person's sedentary lifestyle but joining the bandwagon unprepared is something every person should be mindful about.
3. Flashlight and Extra Batteries
This is a no-brainer. Any camper should bring a flashlight and extra batteries for nights so dark.
4. Sunscreen
Sunscreen is needed for those hiking trips that would take almost forever to reach.
5. Rain Gear
No one wants to be wet or let alone spend the damp Halloween night inside the car. That would totally defeat the purpose of driving miles away from the city and get in touch with nature.
6. Insect Repellent
Please don't harbor a death wish and go buy yourself one. No one wants to be a host to legions of bugs and unidentifiable insects.
7. Campfire Starters
Toilet paper rolls, dryer lint, wood chips, you name it!
8. Matches
Aside from campfire starters, you also need to make actual fire. If you happen to forget to bring your own matches, you can also use your car's cigarette lighter to start a fire.
9. Tent
You can't just squat anywhere. Tent's protect you from many harsh elements on the outback.
10. Sleeping Bag
You don't need fancy sleeping gears to get a good night's rest. A soft, and thick sleeping bag would do just the trick.
11. Mallet
If the ground you'd be settling in is soft, you'll be fine but if the ground's dry, it's as hard as a rock. Bring a mallet with you and exercise those muscles in setting up your tent.
12. Lantern
There may be less hours in a day but if you find yourself bored in the middle of the night you can always pull out your trusty lantern and get all the light that you need for reading or for doing anything that involves sight.
13. Toiletries
No one want's to go home smelling like a caveman right? Toiletries are a must.
14. Water
Always important to keep yourself hydrated.
15. Ice Cooler
Because it's always important to store your food in a cool dry place.
16. Can Openers
Unless you have mastered the art of opening cans without a can opener, you can leave this out of the list.
17. Dining Utensils
Again, feeling hungry and not having any place to put your food is not only depressing but it's also irritating.
18. Dish-washing Liquid
You need to wash everything before putting it in your mouth.
19. Aluminum Foil, Paper Towels, and Garbage Bag
Not only is it important to keep yourself organized but it's also important that you keep yourself clean and neat at the same time. This is a must most especially if you brought kids with you.
20. USB Car Charger
Your handy dandy car cigarette lighter has many uses. Not only can it start fire but it can also allow you to charge your smartphone devices and any other usb operated device.
Now, you are all set! Have a fun filled Halloween camping escapade with your family and friends!
