- Spider decorations, and other seasonal touches, are now on view
Seeking out magical moments is just a solid, life-affirming plan, whatever the date on the calendar happens to be.
But we keep our peepers peeled a bit more keenly around Halloween, in terms of staying vigilant for ethereal experiences, delightful decorations, and the sort of happenings that elevate the daily ho-hummery just a little.
Nimbus Coffee, the DTLA coffeehouse that find fantastical inspiration in the Harry Potter books, keeps the whimsy strong throughout the calendar through a host of style touches, cleverly named dishes, and a costumes-are-cool atmosphere.
Late October, however, ups the spooky fun, in a multitude of ways.
Planning on touching your broomstick down at the Hope Street gathering place? Look for several Halloween-themed decorations, with "Follow the spiders" serving as a guide.
There may be a photograph or two in the restroom that change into unearthly beings as you move in front of them.
