For Halloween

None this year, but I love the whole harvest season. It's a wonderful time of year

The Cajun used to work for a Haunted House. He did a few different characters, but his main was the Scream killer.

Two confirmed urinations on his watch. Scared 'em so bad they peed their pants.

I keep thinking he'd make an excellent Joker, because he has the grin, but everyone does that one.

For myself... it's been years. I don't think I'll dress up this year, unless there's a change in plans at some point.

Curse you. Of course this came to mind

We're having our annual Halloween party. It's a helluva thing. Seriously. My wife goes all out. This year, we're building a haunted house in the back yard, will have a vampire on stilts, and a fortune teller. Plus refreshments.

Anyone nearby is welcome to attend.

My costume this year will be....

Malcolm Reynolds!

I have the jacket, shirt, and pants. Just need the boots and suspenders.

A friend and I are going to a wedding the day before. We're going to dress like a lady and a gentleman and have all of them fooled. (no, not crossdressing, although the bride would find it hilarious)

It's the first time in 4 years that I'm back home to enjoy the holiday... Unfortunately I'm getting my wisdom teeth taken out the Oct. 28th so I won't be partaking in any of the goodies.

lol Gehanna. I think I'll just hide under the bed and hope no one rings the bell

I'm so envious of my dad- he always tells us stories of how when he was a kid he would only get king size bars. Last Halloween we drove around for hours until finding a semi-promising looking street. Even then...

And whoever made "Fun Size" Candy has obviously never been a kid. THERE IS NOTHING FUN ABOUT THEM.

Yeah, but your dad probably got a total of ten or twenty candies. These days, kids come home with hundreds.

Ooh, I wanna come to your party!

You can, if you put your tongue back in your mouth.

I wanna come to your party too! But I don't think I'm nearby...

I loved trick or treating as a kid. The weather tonight reminds me of it. The crispness in the air, and the faint smell of woodsmoke. *sigh* Those were the days

But that's part of my costume!

My partner is angling for an invite to go trick-or-treating with our friends' first grader. We have an assortment of cool lucha libre masks from Mexico (mexican wrestler) so she is going to pick one and I said I would make her a coordinating satin cape and pick up some matching tights and such. (She's gone as a different luchador before, but she wants to use a different mask this year...) Our little friend was a rainbow unicorn last year, but this year I have a strong suspicion she will be Tiana from Princess & The Frog. Her dad worked on the movie and brought in pictures of her as models for Little Tiana, and she looks just like her

I dunno what to wear--I liked this costume I saw in the Scott Pilgrim comic--just a plain black domino mask, white shirt, skinny black tie and black jacket. I don't know what that is a costume of, exactly, it's just generically costumey.

Unfortunately we don't celebrate Halloween in Australia particularly at all. Lately there've been a few kids in costumes knocking on doors (ie. the last 2 or 3 years) but it's a very small number.

And they probably don't have as much fun as American kids, considering most people here don't stock candy for Halloween hand-outs. So the kids get very little after a long time of walking the streets.

I've been to a couple of Halloween parties (one of which I threw, and the other I insisted was thrown) but I can only remember one costume, and I'm not saying what it was.

Though that reminds me! There's a guy who hangs out at my local shopping centre who always wears a Superman costume. Maybe for Halloween he'd dress up like a normal person?
