Well, as a Pagan, this is easily the biggest time of the year for me (other than april 5th...)

One of my friends is having a party thing at her house, so I'll go to that after I take my neice and nephew (he's going to be Donnie for haloween :lol: ) trick-o-treating.

I think i might also be social and go to a school haloween dance as a turtle. could be fun...

Scaring the local kids who still think there old enough to trick or treat :lol: .... You know those kids who are like 14, 15 who still go out and get in the way of all those cool little kids :( , it'll be fun :evilgrin:

Yeah, and theres nothing wrong with that, we scare the kids that shouldn't be out there, that are ruining it for the little ones, you know those kids who steel candy :x

I have no plans as of the moment, its hard to do stuff on holidays like halloween when you live out in the country.

Me and my friends will be buying lots of toilet paper, eggs, and that silly string stuff. There are few few teacher we dont like, and we know where they live *evil laugh* And then we'll probably do some of our other friends. I have a funny story......Last halloween me and a few of my friends dressed up. One friend of mine dress up as a geek and he had the shoes that light up when you walk, they used ta be a big thing we I was little. Anyway we were tp'n a friends house(who live in town, but theres a little bit a woods by his house) We got caught by a couple police officers, but we took of into the woods(i aint gettin caught :lol: ). Well the one with the light up shoes kinda freaked out and didnt move. After he finally fled in to the woods, and hid behind some trees. But as you know he had those shoes on and they found him. It was hilarious.

Then raid all the after-Halloween sales the next day. XD

I wanted to dress up as a Ring Wraith, but the costume is expensive! :dead: Oh well. I'll probably be too busy studying for midterms to do anything anyway.

I'll probably reprise my favourite costume. Last year I dressed up as a ninja, then garnished the costume with a pirate eyepatch and a Army issue kevlar helmet. Needless to say, I recieved the oddest sort of praise for it. Maybe I'll toss a robotic arm or hook into the mix.

No parties to be had around here, unless you include the drunken barracks sort, flowing with cheap beer and luke-warm jaegermeister. It's all about the kiddies, which I presently have none of.

I'm quite happy that halloween is not very popular here. Carnival is already too much for me, same procedure every year: "Dude, there's a big carnival party, are you coming?"
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :evil:

Hey, does anyone have any tips for making shells? I'm considering going as Raph or Mikey, and i'll have real weapons to lug around incase any strange people try to take the kids. :lol: .

kyabetsu
10-09-2003, 08:46 AM
hmmm... shells?

i'd suggest starting with something like a rubbermade trashcan lid... the kind with handles so you can loop some kind of ties on it and easily wear it. ... then i'd add to the round shape with some poster board cresents taped at the tops and bottoms to make the lid (which WOULD be a perfect circle) into something more OVAL.

After that? it's papermache and paint! or papermache and then a layer of green/brown fabric stretched over your shell-shape.

good luck!


heh. a few years ago my ex-fiance wanted to be "THE FLAMING CARROT" i made him this huge carrot mask/hat with cellophane fire shooting out the top. it was a LOT of fun. he looked like this:


http://tralfaz-archives.com/comics/burden/card7.jpg

i dressed up like the swiss miss from the cocoa box, but added alot of army gear and went as a Militant Swiss, specifically the SWISS MISSTRESS! made a tommy gun out of a swiss miss canister and an old nerf gun... had the army boots and the black leather gloves and a bandaleer of swiss miss packets... the braids in my hair... the little swiss miss dress... the helmet...

shouted "F*** NEUTRALITY" a lot.

it was a good year.

I might go trick or treating! even though im 16 and too old to go ill go if my friends go and stuff.Last year i was michelangelo...i made my shell just by wearing a green hooded sweatshirt and i put a backpack under the shirt...it wasnt perfect but it got the idea across. I dont know what i will be this year, maybe shredder!

Mars-Chan
10-09-2003, 02:43 PM
You know what? I'm twenty years old and I STILL love Halloween now as much as I did when I was a little girl. :D I think that it does not matter how old you are...just as long as you can have fun and give out lots of candy while you're at it.

10-09-2003, 03:56 PM
On a side note:

Does anybody else on here have a parent that adores Halloween more than Christmas? I sure do...my mom's Wiccan, and you have no idea how much she gets into the spirit of things when decorating the house, heh...

Another fun but useless fact: one of my uncles was born on Halloween...an evil child, he is ;)

Mars-Chan

I've never seen the Crow, is he supposed to be an evil mime or something?You're right, you HAVEN'T seen it...

Evil? He's the GOOD guy in that movie! Brandon Lee's character (Eric Draven) and his girlfriend were pointlessly murdered on "Devil's Night", the night before Halloween. A year later he's resurrected to avenge himself and Shelly...the paint is supposed to be symbolic or something, I guess.

That Matt Guy
10-10-2003, 12:09 PM
So what does it have to do with a crow?

Mars-Chan
10-10-2003, 12:12 PM
*sighs* The crow is his guide to help him get revenge on all of the people who killed he and his fiancee. It all started with Top Dollar.... :evilgrin:

Reznorite420
10-10-2003, 12:12 PM
The story goes that a crow takes your soul to the land of the dead when you die...when Eric was ressurrected, his crow came with him, and that crow is his only vulnerability (as Top Dollar in the movie put it, "Quick impression for you...'CAW! CAW! *BANG!* F**K, I'M DEAD!*'").

Maybe Mars can explain it better than I can at the moment.

That Matt Guy
10-10-2003, 12:16 PM

I....thought I did.... :| :lol: :D

You explained it just like I would've, Rez. Maybe even better. :D

"Quick impression for you...'CAW! CAW! *BANG!* F**K, I'M DEAD!*"
Give me the girl and I'll let you walk out of here. "Well, well. Why don't you give me a minute to think about that, huh? *pause* Nah, F*** it."
*shoots Eric who gingerly touches the bullet wound* Heh...ah, F***....
*sighs* aahhhhh...one of the finer moments in the film....hence the pic and the quote! Ahhehheheee! :evilgrin:

10-10-2003, 01:12 PM
Wow I have been wrong for soooooo long. I always thought that was Sting. :o

Mars-Chan
10-10-2003, 01:30 PM
*chuckles* No no no....See, Sting does have that same Crow like appeal to him...ergo, the white face and the lines, but he just doesn't hit that close to home with lines like "It Can't Rain All The Time" and "Comming home, Shelly..."
*pauses, glances around, speaks rapidly so she doesn't get pummled* Not that that's a bad thing, mind you....

That Matt Guy
10-10-2003, 03:22 PM
Scott Hall told Sting to paint his face like the Crow.

I saw this topic while browsing around and since we are doing SOMETHING for Halloween, I thought I'd share. On Halloween night, my family and I will be seeing a tribute band called Rockola down at the Spreckles Theater in San Diego. The group will perform the entire Beatles White Album. We decided to dress up for the evening. My mom is going as a fortune teller, my sister is going as Alice from Alice in Wonderland, and I'm going to attempt to go as Sabrina, the Teenage Witch! I think the blonde hair will be the dead giveaway. It'll be a nice change from doing the usual handing out candy or going to a restaurant. I think the last time we actually did something fun was in 2001 when me, my sister, and two cousins Katrina and Josh went to Scream Zone at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. It was kind of corny, but still something to do. :)

This wasn't on Halloween, but one time, me, my sister, and Katrina decided to take a night drive through Quest Haven, a real spooky dirt road out in the middle of nowhere. I say spooky because this area has no street lights, the path is very narrow, very twisty and the trees overhead have low, ghostly-white branches. Kat kept telling us to talk to her about nonsense so that she wouldn't get scared and drive off the road. I was mostly afraid that something would jump out of the bushes at the car! What was more scary was the fact that there was a cemetary nearby. Kat decided to tell us about it.

There was another time she drove out there with her brother and some friends and she literally got OUT of the car and walked up the to the cemetary gate! Talk about a bold move! She swore she heard people talking, or voices all around her. I asked if it was the others calling for her to get back in the car and she said no. It sounded like mixed chatter of men AND women! Plus, the others were still inside the car, quite a distance from where she was!

Heh, the next topic should be, "What's the dumbest thing you ever did just to get scared?" If it's more than one thing, than boy, I truly pity you!
