Pumpy Tudors · 10-28-2012, 06:26 PM

I'd post mine, but it's inappropriate for this forum, given that it's just me being completely nude.

Isn't that what the spoiler tag is for?

That's fine if you're wearing a mask.

This thread hasn't gotten enough love, particularly IlliniCub's Guy Fawkes costume in the OP.

So I say this should become our Halloween thread.

Tomorrow night, my wife and I will be home, handing out candy and watching The Nightmare Before Christmas, as is our Halloween tradition. Unfortunately The Great Pumpkin DVD is in storage and we could not locate it.

I'm a Roman soldier.

Or alternately I am a Trojan soldier. If I decide to call myself the latter, I will explain that not only do I worship the sun god Apollo and hate the Greeks, but I also can't stop a concussed-QB from passing for 300 yards.

Get that knee up bro.

sterlingice · 10-31-2012, 04:34 PM

I have no idea how many to expect here this year. New apartment so we have about ~100 pieces of candy. We'll start with single pieces but if it gets later and we have no visitors, they can have a handful.

We almost ran out our first year in Indy: 100+ kids, which was new and overwhelming to us.

We're outside of town in a road with poor lighting and have a fenced yard with a LARGE 'beware of the dog' sign (complete with loud dog barking from our 5 dogs) - I figure if any kids get as far as knocking on the door they're welcome to pillage what they like from the fridge, let alone a piece of candy

PS - Its a shame actually, when we live more 'centrally' I quite liked the way Halloween is done over here, its a far bigger deal in America than in England ... which is kinda ironic as America has far more devout Christians and its a pagan based holiday ... weird ...

What movies will you watch tonight? I'm going to watch Trick r Treat ( the recent anthology not the 80's movie) it's kind of became a Halloween tradition. Then I'm thinking some psychological horror of some sort. Maybe Session 9 or the Changeling.

sterlingice · 10-31-2012, 07:02 PM

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown on ABC

Not my kid (friend's kid) so I ain't posting the pic, but I saw a great one on a very baseball savvy 10 year old tonight.

He's wearing a clown nose, rainbow hair clown wig, face paint, the whole deal ... and a #34 Harper baseball jersey

Coffee Warlord · 10-31-2012, 07:41 PM

He's probably sneaking out as we speak to go egging.

A kid came to our house dressed in Marcus Lattimore's jersey, but he also had ghost make up on. I'm not sure what statement he was trying to make.

We have so much candy. We took our daughter (3 y/o) and she was terrified for the first 7-8 houses. We let her eat some candy, and she opened right up. We figured we might be out for 1/2 hour or so. We were out for 1:45. We barely handed out any candy. We probably have 300 pieces of candy in our house today.

DanGarion · 11-01-2012, 10:27 AM

I have some great ideals for next year to make things much more scary. But I love how the spray paint turned out.
