I'm 16 and I'm going trick or treating!

CANDY! WOOOOO!

Unfortunately the people that are actually my age are 'too cool' or they're going to parties to get drunk, not cool.

:D I'm going with an 11 year old and a 14 year old, it will be epic! *pumped*

HELL YES THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. I'm taking all my good friends, that's like, 20 people. fruck. I don't even know if my household can carry that much candy. THEN I'M WATCHING SCARY MOVIES WITH THEM ALL AT ANOTHER FRIEND'S HOUSE. Also, I'm going as EFG, with an afro. Don't know who he is? Search Epic Fail Guy on google, or EFG. But check in images =P

LOL EFG, nice! I approve! :D

A night of candy gathering is the best idea ever! Whoever thought of Halloween was BRILLINAT!

If you have a good costume, would they give you candy? I usually go all out, so I always get a ton of candy!

I'm either going trick or treating with a couple of friends or helping to throw a party with some scary movies/costumes.

THAT, my friend, was the Pagans. Lovely lovely group of peopel that were like "HAY, LETS MAKE A HOLLIDAY AND GIVE OUT CANDY". So, there you go.

My friends and I are dressing up as Pokemon cahracters. xD i'm going as Jessi. This 6 ft tall guy is going to be Pikachu. It'll be epic.

Ten years ago or so, for the last Halloween I ever went outside for, I was a six foot tall (approx.) Wicket the Ewok. I had a nice spear made out of a tree branch too...

Otherwise, I hate Halloween. I don't like people walking around in the dark vandalizing things, it gives people the wrong idea about everyday peaceful nightfolk.

If they gave out cheesecake, I'd be more likely to take a stroll around. New Holiday anyone?

Oh wow, that WILL be epic! :D 6 ft tall Pikachu, wooooo! XD Send me a pic, juuuuust so I can see it with my own two eyes!

And I love pagans now, because candy is epic!

The only problem with handing out cheesecake is that you need plates, forks and glasses of milk to go with them, and it's kind of messy. Not good for those who bake on a regular basis too, cause, for us perfectionist bakers, it would take a heckuva lot of time to bake that much cheesecake. Besides, it's possible to take a walk regularily at night and still be excited by halloween.

drakanor · Lurker

May be late, but seems fun enough to drop my own Halloween.

Since I was tending the house alone, didn't really get a chance to go around the nighborhood 'treating. I did, however, have a bowl of candy. SOOoo, I wrapped myself in some burlap scraps I found in a frenzy to be wearing something unusual, up in the attic--note: this took an hour, as the attic is filled with christmas stuff, sweaters, hanukah stuff, christmas stuff, a couple fans, christmas stuff, some roofing supplies, and the halloween stuff I was looking for. And more christmas stuff.

Through some act of enormous generosity, one of my neighbors actually drove me down to the local shopping strip to grab a thing of fake blood, too.

So, I wrapped myself in some burlap straps, spattered myself with fake blood, poured it all over my hands, shook my hair over my eyes, and then lay down next to the bowl, growling and snarling and snapping at anyone who tried to take some candy. And howling loud enough for half the neighborhood to hear.

Then I sat outside for a full half hour after everyone'd stopped. Oops.

Then I went inside with the remaining candy. The next day, out of pure boredom/whim, I decided to take the net wt. of the candy bags and the weight of each individual piece to estimate how many were initially in the bags. Then I figured out how many candy pieces were taken, and how much percent each of the five types contributed to the total taken. I still have that scrap of paper somewhere around here.
