Zombie, pirate, vampire, Norman Bates, been there done those. Figured this year I'd do something different for a change. Been watching old black and white horror films studying up, and got my rig all together and ready to go. Werewolf? Frankenstein? Nope, I said something different. Yessir, this year I'll be a gin-u-wine torch wielding Tyrolean villager, ready to munch schnitzel, guzzle wheat beer, or slip into mob mentality at the drop of a hat. Of course if I do run into "the monster", I'll just shriek in terror and haul boogedy boogedy. Us angry villagers might be mad as all get out, but we ain't much good at fighting monsters. ;)

Just gonna be myself...that scares the kids enough as is.
 
guzzle wheat beer, Quote Sarge .

Wheat beer ? WHEAT BEER ! Oh the horror .:eek: :eek: :eek:

I mostly just get bloodied up to answer the door for the kids . A few props for those who are interested in more than the candy . A couple of horror movies and a good midnite read to set the stage .
 
Halloween is my favorite holiday:) I've kicked around the idea of going all out as a pirate. However, I don't have all the garb, and I doubt I'll be able to pull it all together before the big night. My wife, on the other hand, is going full on Pirate Wench. Me? I'm pulling out my glue on devil horns and my "This is my costume" T-shirt. I'm still all the kiddies' favorite as I dole out the goods. "One candy bowl to rule them all":D;)
Since this is our first Halloween with our doggie, we've decided to dress him up as well. I fashioned him a set of devil horns out of foil and painted them red. He's also getting a red cape.
I'm all ready for the night. I have my favorite horror movies from my personal stash picked out, a couple more that I plan on purchasing in the next few days, and few more coming from Netflix.

I was gonna be a pirate, but I bought to many knives and swords to buy the costume I wanted. Sigh.....always next year.
 
I am walking around with a hand mirror and when people ask what I am, I am going to hold it up like a mask so they see their own face in the mirror and say "an asshole"

LOL!
But,........... what are you going to do when they respond by saying that you definitely don't need any gear whatsoever to be that ;)
 
Myself. I'm working that night.

Depending on what unit I'm at and who else is there, and how "festive" I'm feeling, I may T.P. a control booth. We'll see.
 
17th-century Plague Doctor. I'd be pretty creeped out if I showed up at the hospital and this guy was there:

I'm expecting to get a lot of "What are you, Spy vs. Spy?" comments, though. :grumpy:

Flowers went in that long nose.. to cover up the smell from the plague victims.

"The Foul Clanger" wore that, I was told, in a tour in old Edinburgh. Carry a bell and call, "Bring out your dead!"

Good call. :thumbup:

I hand out candy. Not many kids make it to the munk compound anyway.
I get the most fun driving my kids around to trick in treat. Yes, that is still alive in rural Montana.

It's not my favorite holiday. It is the Disney channel's favorite holiday, and my old town of Santa Cruz celebrates it more than Christmas.

My kids are no longer at trick or treat age, (17 and 18), but maybe I will be able to convince them to join their mother and I in attending some respectable Halloween costume parties.
They will probably decline that offer, but that won't stop them from attending parties being held by their peers :)
 
Halloween is by far my favorite holiday. Not sure if I'm dressing up this year though. Might just stay home and watch some horror flicks.

I have an old Tor Johnson mask that I like to wear for the kids:

Oh man, is that going to be lost on these poor kids. You can't be a horror/sci-fi/B Movie buff without knowing of Tor Johnson. However, I have a feeling that the kids are going to respond with more of a, "Why's your Vin Diesle mask look all sleepy?" than a real fright.

Well, I have a change of costume on my end. My wonderful dog found and destroyed the devil horns i made him. I have decided to go as Indiana Jones. Got a leather hat and a bullwhip. Pair it with a half open cuffed dress shirt, a pair of boots, and a pack slung over my shoulder...instant Dr. Jones. Oh, and for my dog's crimes, I am picking up a baseball cap from the baby department at Target and fashioning it to his head. Instant Short Round:D

The sad thing is that the kids I hand candy out to will have no idea who I am supposed to be:( They need to hurry up and make Indiana Jones 4...SOON. Or else it's going to have to titled something like, "Indiana Jones: The Quest For the Lost House Slippers" where our hero must find out where his meddling daughter placed his house shoes the last time she and slub of a man she calls a husband came over to check on him and pick up the place a little bit. Icy-footed, a little cranky, and ready for a mid afternoon nap, Indy is in a race against time to find his shoes before he must cross the cold tile floor to start his 4 o'clock supper and catch the opening credits of Matlock:D

Sorry bit of a side track there.
