I'd like to remind a certain un-named someone that Halloween started out as a celebration of the dead. It proceeds All Saint's Day which is Nov 1st. Halloween was originally all hallow's eve. A hallowed day. It was a day to remember the dead and give them blessings. And I'm sure remember them in your prayers to the saints the following day. It does have pagan roots but the pagans are peaceful earth loving people as anyone who has any knowledge of Wicca knows... In closing I'd like to present exhibit B...which is the fact that our local CATHOLIC church gives out candy for Halloween....nough said....

I went to Salem not last year but the previous two years and loved loved LOVED it. It's like the Mardi Gras of Halloween. You guys have fun and take lots of pictures!!

I love Halloween! I love dressing up. We always have a Halloween party at work, and I'm hoping to go some parties around the city this year.

Last year, I went as zombie Snow White, and won scariest costume at work. Previous costumes include crazy cat lady (that one was brilliant, I must say), zombie prom queen, Sally from the Nightmare Before Christmas, a cracked porcelain doll, and Sarah Palin- which may or may not have involved me called the CEO a maverick at our all-company meeting .

This year I'm considering a Honey Boo Boo costume, scary nurse, or pregnant Snooki. I'm not sure though.

Another thing I like about Halloween- cheap candy on November 1.

I usually just wear a witch hat and call it good. It seems appropriate!

gaea · 09-28-2012, 07:07 PM

i haven't dressed up in a while and that's ok with me, i do love to watch the little ones in their little outfits and i do love to hand out candy to them....

Im liking this thread. its fun to read....

If i were to go to a party i would pull off the school girl outfit easily

SleepyButch · 09-28-2012, 07:12 PM

I was thinking about going as one of the seven dwarves this year.. might be a new look for me.

Not sure what I'll be doing on that day.. only time will tell.

I do love all of the scary movies that come out around halloween...

get get get out out out...

cinnamongrrl · 09-29-2012, 06:38 PM

All this talk about Halloween and going to Salem kind of meshes with our LONGGG standing plan to have a mini New England get together. Anyone who would like to get together for Halloween Day in Salem please feel free to talk to me or Teddy. It WILL be during the week since that's where Halloween falls this year... We would love to get together and finally meet some of our friendly community

Fantastic suggestion! Anyone in or around the Western NY/Southern Ontario area interested in doing some ghosthunting this month? I know of several places and opportunities like Iron Island, Central Terminal and Goodleberg Cemetery. Some are free and some have a fee. Anyone?

Would that be a school girl outfit or would it be a stripper outfit... "pull off"

Teasing!

ruby_woo · 09-28-2012, 11:18 PM

I'm definitely leaning towards Honey Boo Boo! It's just a matter of finding the right dress. Challenge accepted.

wizard, I am thinking. I am into comfort this year. Also, I have spent too many Halloweens in SF freezing my ass off. A velvet robe appeals.
