sevarian · 09-18-2002, 02:06 AM

ahhhhh, halloween is coming. does anyone know where i can get an april o'niel halloween costume or sewing pattern?

Cherubae · 09-18-2002, 06:08 AM

Some of us have dressed up as April O'Neil

What I did was run to the local 2nd hand clothing store and buy a yellow jumpsuit and a pair of white boots. Then I found a white belt at another store and the TMNT logo patch at a Hot Topics. That's all you really need!

Now... should I wear my Krang costume to work on Halloween or not....

Buying the jumpsuit is a good idea, but my girlfriend likes to make everyhting thats like most of the fun for her... she just wanted to know if anyone had a pattern thans though

There's no halloween in Finland...

no halloween? how terrible!!

No free candy Karpo? Man you had a sad childhood every Oct 31st!

**Karpo_007** · 09-18-2002, 02:46 PM

Well we have same kind of thing a week before easter. Thats when we go beg for candy...

So there's not like here in Sweden then? Where kids the last couple of years started celebrating "Halloween" (as in "the american holiday where you decorrate with pumpkins" instead of "the swedish holiday where you put candles on your loved ones graves"...)

Some years ago when I was home alone, two kids came to my door and tricked or treated. It was just luck that I had some candy at home, but I was thiiis close to say "Er... Trick?" and close the door....

**Karpo_007** · 09-18-2002, 04:18 PM

Hehe no we dont celebrate that day at all i think...

The only thing I like about Halloween is going to the haunted houses.

*Deathknight* · 09-18-2002, 08:34 PM

Haunted houses are cool but there's none in my area which pisses me off. All I can do is get 10 pounds of candy mwhahaha. And one more thing... my b-day is exactly 2 weeks before Halloween... DON'T FORGET OR FACE MY WRAITH hehe.

When I was younger, there used to be decorated haunted houses all over town. But it seems that as I got older, so did the rest of the town. I feel sorry for the kids now; hardly anyone does anything for Halloween anymore, let alone create a haunted house. Most folks don't even leave their lights on so kids can trick-or-treat.

Halloween is my favorite holiday next to Christmas, and it's sad that today's kids can't experience what I did when I was younger.

~Golly, I dunno....I think Halloween is getting bigger every year-- at least where I am, here in the CA foothills. I was in KMart yesterday and they had SO much cool stuff, but the interesting thing was that the adults costume section was as large, if not larger than the kids!
I love Haloween- for a lot of reasons, but even when I was a kid, I liked it better than Christmas.

hmm... i seem to have lost my halloween spirit. i stopped going trick or treating ages ago but i sitll go out watching my little sister trick or treat. i'd feel very guilty if i went trick or treating my age because

a) i'm not greedy for candy/treats (i'm not saying that u people are) and
b) it's a kid's holiday. let the kids get the candy.

GreenWillow · 09-19-2002, 01:47 PM

~Yeah-- that does make it harder when the community isn't into it. At my daughter's school there's a big Halloween party, and there are at least three cornfield mazes, a bunch of pumpkin patches, aound here. Plus the local radio station has a huge "Fright Night" -- actually two-- each year. One for kids with the usual face painting, games and haunted house stuff, and then one for adults with bands and food and drinks.

We don't really celebrate Halloween in England either. No free candy

It is just and excuse for the yobs to come out and egg your house, break your windows or do something to your car. Which kinda spoils it for the little kiddies

heintzvelvet · 09-20-2002, 03:39 AM

I dress up as Michelangelo For halloween last year. Sewed my whole costume by hand. I was so proud of myself. I sent a picture of it into the Ninja Turtles Art Contest and they put it in! That rocked!

check it out...

Its not the best picture. Plus I'm like 2 and a half feet taller than what a Ninja Turtle would be!

But yeah, I agree, Halloween is the best holiday (not really a holiday next to Christmas![/img]

Ninja Turtles Cartoon Fan · 09-20-2002, 05:47 AM

Boy, I wish the people in my hometown still had some of the enthusiasm you people have. It just kind of seems that people forget about Halloween every year where I'm from because the number of trick-or-treaters goes down every year.

Trust me on that one. We keep tabs of how many kids come by. We used to get almost a hundred kids to stop by in years' past. This past year, my parents told me there was barely over thirty kids. That is sad.

Lemme see if I can find a pic of us dressed up w/ Mr. Eastman....
