So, whats Dakkas plans for Halloween? Even if you're not going out, will you be doing anything at home? I personally am probably just going to buy a dollar store bag of candy and work on my Headless Horsemen miniature, maybe watch Nightmare before Christmas.

Absolutely nothing as per usual.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

There is not this idea.

Carve some pumpkins, cook up the seeds, make some pumpkin pie, or pumpkin bread. Hand out candy to local kids. Hope it doesn't snow.

That's the plan, at least.

Make sure we have plenty of Jack-o-lanterns out to guide the roving spirits on their way, leave an extra place for any strangers at the table, and put out an offering for those we love who are dead and gone.

And, of course, take the boys trick or treating, then give out candy to anyone that comes our way.

This year we're planning to do the glowstick in toilet paper rolls with eyes cut out in the bushes for our decorations.

Working, so I don't get to take the kids out which is a bummer.

Last year I went to a party... the party was lame, but I had the best costume: Ash from Army of Darkness.

I'm invited to a house party, but there's also a Halloween event that my friend's hosting at a night club. So I'll go the house party first and then the club.

Now I just need to get hold of a purple sports jacket and an Alan Partridge mask

I've been invited to a party, but ah, the people hosting it and a lot of their friends are big cosplayers. Given that I'm not really into fancy dress too much, I think I'd feel a tad inadequate turning up to that thing in just a shirt and jeans. I mean I could eat a jam donut beforehand and drip the jam everywhere, carry a spatula, and then say I'm a serial killer or something. ...That'd ruin a good shirt though. :(

1. Get a small piece of paper and tape
2. Write "costume" on the piece of paper
3. Tape it on your shirt

I wore a housecoat one year and carried a towel. Yup, Arthur Dent from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Actually I think my girlfriend at the time was dressed in her regular outfit, just covered in blood. She was a zombie hippy. For once I managed to put more effort into an outfit than one of my friends that year though.
