Halloween Costumes

[Ohiospeedo]

Well with the month of October upon us, and Halloween quickly arriving...thought I would start a thread about halloween costumes. What is the best costume that you have worn or what is the best/funny/original costume you have seen?

My Mohammed costume didn't go down too well last year. I think it was the inflatable pig that spolied it...

I'll play safe this year and dress as the Pope, or a Nazi (or both).

I think I will go as I'am...and go as an idiot!!! LOL

Typically I do Eddie from The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but I've grown a beard.

I once glued black birds all over my clothes, with blood stains and tears, black and blue on my face. I was a character from "The Birds." My t-shirt read, "Bodega Bay."

Last year I went as two hot men having sex, oh, wait, no that's what I was doing, I went naked.

Went as a very old, haggard looking version of SNOW WHITE.
Made an exact Snow White Costume to fit me....
And at the bottom of the dress had 7 pair of assorted "dwarf" shoes sticking out under the edge of the dress, pointing in various directions.....
And was also pregnant.....
It won best Costume and is still the talk years later.......

I still can't decide what I want to be for Halloween.

I just got an email that has some coupons on it...

The Code is HEMM
It is good until October 15th. The coupon is a little confusing. I'm not sure if it is 10% off or 20% off because it is worded incorrectly.

My daughter wants me to be a box for Halloween. She even gave me instructions on how to cut it and make it more comfortable for all-day wear. I'm not going to be a box, but... it's bit odd, especially coming from a 4 year old.

well, i'm hugely into halloween and i used to to a whole thing set up at my house, but didn't do it last year because i was at school. as far as effect is concerned, i think it's a tie.

one year, i dressed as a vampire, complete with ascot and realistic fangs (thanks to my dentist father) and i stayed in a coffin in my foyer. The top half of the coffin was open and the bottom half had the candy cauldron sitting on it. the door would open and in order for the children to get the candy, they had to come into the house and approach the coffin, then right as they were reaching for the candy, i would sit bolt upright and hiss with my mouth open, almost every time they retreated all the way back out the door screaming.

last year, i worked at Dorney Park and got a unique latex mask. here it is:

i was also dressed as a secret agent-ish noir thing, so i called myself the secret agent ghoul.

this wasn't for halloween ever, but last year for a show i was in i played Pinocchio with AIDS and i think that's pretty scary:

there's a picture of me somewhere i'm sure with the nose on. it was broken in half and all bloody. It also doesn't show up very well in this picture, but there are tubes coming out of my ass with blood in them and out of my crotch with piss in them. i've also got lesions on various parts of my body.
