Autumn is my favorite time of year, and halloween is my favorite holiday! This year my roommate is having a pumpkin carving party (this weekend! yikes!) and asked if i would make toasted pumpkin seeds and cook fall-themed foods. I've been making apple crisp every weekend (we went apple picking, so i have lots of fruit to use) and have already frozen a bunch of homemade applesauce for later in the season.

I also am known for setting up haunted house trips. I set up 1 to 2 trips every weekend through the whole month of October where I get groups of people together and go to a haunted attraction. This past weekend we did Bates Motel, which is a haunted house, haunted hayride, and haunted corn maze. My favorite, though, is the old asylum.

My costume this year is going to be awesome, as soon as I can find the fabric to make the last part! I'm doing a victorian/steampunk crossover female version of the penguin from the 1950s batman. Purple top hat with veil, black lace parasol, corset, blouse, purple gloves, monocle, cigarette holder, black can-can thigh highs and a purple and black striped bustle skirt with little heeled boots. I am ecstatic over it, since I've been planning it for a while now but never got all the parts together before.

Two years ago I was a film noir poison ivy, which was ALSO tons of fun!

Damn!! The haunted trips sound wicked fun and the pumpkin carving themed night as well... remember there's always cider to be made "spiked." Your costume sounds awesome... I see you put a lot of thought into it. Have fun!!

ScandalAndy · 10-09-2012, 07:15 AM

I'm so looking forward to it! For the last haunted house we took a half gallon of cider and put 1/2 a bottle of spiced rum into it. SO DELICIOUS~!

I don't celebrate halloween in any sense. Whilst it may seem weird or superstitious to many, I have a strong dislike & fear of all things supernatural / ghostly / hauntings and try not to "open these doors", even through innocent fun.

With that said, I'm very glad that ScandalAndy posted the above link. I will gladly fall head over heels in love with anyone who wears the below costume:

I absolutely LOVED that costume. Although, I was originally planning to go as Merida from "Brave".
