Makarov was never one to celebrate Halloween, not caring about any holidays for that matter. But the moment you mentioned wanting to decorate for it he relented to make you happy. "I'll get my men to decorate for us."

About a week before Halloween Makarov leads you outside and you notice how… real the decorations look, especially the blood and skeletons. He turns to you with a smile and asks, “do you like it, дорогой?”
