| so how do you celebrate halloween? Me? I give out candy every year. |
| My family used to put on haunted houses every year. Tons of fun, and all the money we made we gave to charities in town. We had coffins, stocks, a guillotine, racks, a few hundred masks...you name it. Did it for most of my childhood. We gave it all away last year to a local group that was going to use it. Man, I miss it. |
Well come on over to our house we still do it i have coffins and Giant spiders and skulls, skeletons, strobes, foggers, you name it. You still have any of that stuff you want to sell??We all dress up and end up giving out about 20 bags of candy. |
|
I give out cans of cream corn, and re-fired beans. Its a hit every year! You should see the looks of surprise when I break out the bag and start handing out those cans. One year I was running a bit low, So I started handing out .223 and 12 ga shells. Man the kids really thought that was the shit! Well this year Ill be dressed as a Zombie, handing out cans of food. w00t! I cannot wait! |
All we have left are a couple of the masks that I wanted, the fog machine and a couple of static generators. We gave the rest away last year to a non profit group in town. While going through my dad's files last summer, I did find the diagrams for the mazes and such. Talk about bringing back memories. 
|
We love doing it and I have kids knocking on my door every night now asking if we are going to do it this year I am behind getting some of the stuff out. I am doing a flying monster this year that will fly out of the dark from over my house and swing out over the side walk. |
Living in a suburban area; have had few if any trick or treators the past few years due to their being told by the local church/christian etc organizations that its the devil's holiday. I believe the other kids just go to parties now or the mall for candy. I still buy candy to give out and put out a carved pumpkin just for the fun of it, or for the stray group of trick or treaters.

How do you plan on accomplishing this?? Intrested? |

I usually have a massacre of zombies. They're out there you know... "Pretending" want candy... They'll show up at your doorstep, with their jack-o-lantern buckets and asking obscene questions like "Trick or Treat" and their looks... They just look atrocious. Blood everywhere, some look like celebrities......... Every year, it's all the same. They never learn. I mean, how can they? They're zombies. |
Funny you should say that... ALERT*** Zombie Outbreak Imminent... |
lol I JUST read that Man... We should do a "Who's on first" routine now.
