Sakeru_Kyori Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I love Halloween!!!!!!!!!! ^___^ It's been my favorite holiday since I was very little and I adore all things scary and spooky and creepy! I'm so excited to share the ways of halloween with my daughter to teach her the fun and greatness of it. Though unfortunately, unlike when I was a kid, they have flippin curfews now and you can't trust the candy. How annoying is that? So we'll carve our pumpkins (hopefully we'll have enough for Jack, Sally, Zero, Shock, Lock, and Barrel ^_-) and set out our pumkin seeds to make later. Then we'll get all dresed up and walk around to get some candy and after that, secretly throw away all the candy and fill Riley's bucket up with our own candy :P just to be safe. Not sure what we'll be dressing up as. Riley was a Batarina and I was a Fallen Angel last year. ^_^ What are your plans for this Holloween? This topic has been edited by a member of staff (Spritzie).

Finn the Human Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Well I am going Trick-or-Treating. I am not 18 yet so I am good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vyvren Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I love Halloween too - I agree with every last one of your exclamation marks, haha! c: Unfortunately Halloween isn't a very big holiday in Sweden (I think it has to do with the fact that most 'kids' around here - in the cities, at least - wouldn't even bother asking for a treat *cough*) I think I'll have to settle for eating candy and watching horror movies :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passiflora Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I loooove Halloween. I'll probably go to a party of some sort, but not sure what I'm dressing up as. My roommates and I will also probably carve some pumpkins, roast pumpkin seeds, and buy some candy to give out. ^_^ Though unfortunately, unlike when I was a kid, they have flippin curfews now and you can't trust the candy. How annoying is that? When I was younger, trick-or-treating usually wrapped up by 9:00 or so anyway because it's mostly really young kids. The "don't trust the candy" thing is also largely a myth, so I wouldn't worry too much. :) There have only been a handful of cases of people tampering with Halloween candy, and no one has ever been harmed as a result of tampering by a stranger - it's usually a family member targeting their own child and trying to make it look like they aren't to blame. Just throw out anything that's homemade, unwrapped, or has a torn wrapper, and you should be fine! Zombiiesque 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleomiele Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I haven't dressed up in years...I think my university orchestra will be having a Halloween-themed party that night, so I guess that's what I'll be doing :D if I must find a costume, I wouldn't mind being perhaps a generic lady from Star Trek serving on the U.S.S. Enterprise :P They've been saying not to trust candy for years, but in my area, parents just check to make sure the candy's packaging isn't injured or punctured in any way. Then we get to enjoy the tasty treats we gathered! Rebecca~ and Zombiiesque 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. :D So even if you don't want to trust the candy to the young-un, you can set it aside to eat yourself- you can look at it closely, and inspect the wrapper, and if you're not sure about it, throw it out. :) I do enjoy halloween, though I'm generally too lazy to do much! I could carve some pumpkins, but I would probably have to ask permission to put them at the front of the house (I live in a basement suite that has an entrance off the side of the building. The front steps are for the tennants upstairs). Because of where I live, I veeeeeery much doubt I'll get any Trick or Treaters as well. i'll probably just be hanging out with my girlfriend, eating candy, and watching scary movies. :D Zombiiesque and cleomiele 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombiiesque Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I too am a Halloween fanatic! It's by far my favorite holiday of the year. Ahh, so much cute stuff, want it all. I used to have Halloween shower curtains and towels - Target FTW! I wish they'd come back out with those. I already have my lights strung on my porch, and I know we're carving pumpkins, I'll probably put out some decorations. I am not sure how many trick or treaters we'll get - I don't know if they'll be going to something organized or going door to door but I'll have my pumpkin bowl filled for them just in case. Not like it won't get eaten in this house. If I were to go all out we'd get all zombiefied and have spooky music going, too.

Sakeru_Kyori Posted September 30, 2012 Author Share Posted September 30, 2012 I hope every one of you have agreat time ^___^ As for the comments on the candy, we've had issues before with needles and believe it or not a circular blade in candy. Also a few times when I was younger with stuff like that. People are out there that are just messed up in the head. I just beleive it to be safer to buy my own candy and switch it out with the other to be safe. :) My favorite part of Halloween by the way, are the pumpkin seeds ^__^ I over did the salt one year and there was a coding of it all around the seed edges haha :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
complicatedwishes Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I think me and my house mates are going to have a small party, dress up and then head out to our favourite club. So excited. I like going out for Halloween! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idriya Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I used to celebrate Halloween, but I really don't anymore. I'm just not the partying sort, is all. I did always have fun trick-or-treating as a kid, though. Used to come back with a huge pillow sack full of candy. But it will give me some peace and quiet in my dorm room.

sarria33 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I love Halloween! But I am not the partying type either (and I'm in college) so I'll probably do nothing. We had trick or treating in my dorm last year which was awesome :D As in participating rooms would give out candy. If I do end up doing something, I'm thinking of going as Sarah Palin haha Like make the haristyle she usually has, and we have similar glasses.

Hahha, thanks for the reassurance. ;) Well, my candy will be coming fromma big box from one store or another, not from tick or treating- I'm just a tad too old to still get away with it. ;) I will give my brother a heads up though, since my neice will probably be going out (though, she's not even two yet, so I imagine that he will be eating most of the candy, lol :P) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsalagi_Phoenix Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I'm not sure what I'm doing for Halloween, but it's my favorite holiday. This month I plan to watch Halloween type movies, such as Ernest Scared Stupid and read some scary books. I'm going to put up some Halloween stuff on my windows and decorate my room. Halloween is so much fun. The thing I think I miss most is Trick or Treating. I stopped when I was 13 since that is the age people stop Tricking or Treating where I live.

flyingeevee Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I'm going to dress as a Penguin (it's a dress so it's kind of classy too), carve my second pumpkin ever (last year was my first), and then enjoy my scary movie marathon while probably watching the boyfriend play Silent Hill or Fatal Frame :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naamah D. Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 My Halloween costume was going to be a bit pricey, so I really can't do anything for Halloween. I was going to dress as a succubus, but not many people at school would know what I am going as at first glance so I'd have to explain. I hate explaining.

karmacow Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 It absolutely is a massive compliment :D And I'm glad you didn't take what I said in a bad way, because I know that with some girls, I'd be on shaky ground with that comment.

Feel a bit funny wearing skirts/dresses actually XP The last time I went out for Halloween I was a zombie (been a hermit for a couple of years D:).
