-- Halloween and tradition.... ??
 

Hi Gays,

I'm curious of your personal tradition, Past memories or experiences???

Stories and the sort? Memories from your youth, etc.

I realize I'm a few months early - but I was having an in-depth conversation with one of my Facebook friends and I like to force my life onto you, here.

I have been watching The Changeling for the past 3 years or so. The movie of the holiday changes every 5 years or so for me - I may convert to The Howling from 1981, this season. On Halloween night one thing that may never get changed is that pot of chili thing - sometimes I incorporate Nathan's hot dogs - or maybe boil some pasta to accompany...

Plug in a post sharing whatever you want about Halloween! :)

Thanks Gays!

Trick r Treat is a good one to watch every year.

When I was a kid, we were hard core. We would head out for many hours of candy hording. I would head out with my brother and a couple other kids in the neighborhood with large pillow cases.

We would always have to make one stop by the house to unload the pillow cases and head back out. We would go out for several hours, even in blizzards some years.

I'm not a huge fan of Halloween at this point, but I always suck it up and hand out candy as a payback for the kindness shown to me by strangers when I was a kid.

I'd forgotten about the pillow cases LOL - nice though - I think this year i'm getting full sized bars for those little shits. We only see about ten or so w/ generally 1 -> 4 in their posse. Shouldn't be too bad - I may just get King Sized from The Dollar Tree. Ha!

I hear you on the numbers, it seems to drop off more and more every year.

it's weird there's no rhyme or reason - here, anyways - I'll see as little as 7 and as many as 20. really odd stats.

Nice - yeah - Night of the Living Dead / Halloween and American WW in London have all been in rotation in the past.

CP Movie night: Troll marathon!!

I will do it. Let me get through these next few busy weeks - perhaps the weekend prior to Halloween? I'd still like to do the original Scary Movie from 1991 as it's accessible on Youtube so all can watch and timing can be fairly on-point. Plus it's awesomely bad. Was trying to get the trailer to post but apparently YouTube has shat itself.

Though Planet mass watching Trick r Treat with commentary would be phenomenal

it's not as manageable (if it's not on youtube) - we'll need to manage it for timing of comments, etc... I'm open for suggestions - perhaps we could incorporate a 3rd party online conference bridge or something. We'll figure it out. :)

I'll be honest I wish I could cuddle with ALL of you, simultaneously at a drive-in watching a horror film all while snuggling in a bitchin' Camaro!

I love Halloween kids bring me candy and leave sometimes i have to pick them up and shake it out of them but i get bucket loads!

Every October Kanopolis drive Inn has a marathon of horror movies from dusk to dawn. Like Last Man on Earth and Night of the Living Dead. I've yet to get to partake it but I'm bound determined to this year.

Silver Bullet - watch it every year. Stupid movie - but it has become something of a Halloween tradition.

aww I like this! same with KC Tattoo's posts. FUN!

Monster Squad!!!

Wolfman has nards!

I love how interactive you are with me - it's very unselfish; sweet n kind! BUT

But; you really need to conceptualize what I like, better. You're not great at target marketing.

Love Halloween, best time of the year and best holiday...

Halloween '78 is a must every year.. typical watch H2, H4, H5 as well.

My daughter loves Hocus Pocus so that's become part of the tradition as well.

Fright Night

PGM I do love you.

I like this like you wouldn't believe!

You dick!!! BUT thanks!!

Yep

Had a blast in LA as a kid. The hispanic neighborhoods were the best. They get really ****ing into it. A dual Day of the Dead/Halloween thing.

I make to sure to watch Burton's Sleepy Hollow every year.

I am a big fan of mashup costumes. Last year I was John Snow White. The other moms on the street were kinda digging it, I must say.

Semi-finalists were:
Groucho Barks
Fidel Castronaut
Donald Gump
Bel Biv Dafoe (Willem)

Something a little different to spice up Halloween movie night...

When i was a kid, my old man delivered twinkies. So we had twinkies to give out. Needless to say we were a popular house.

Since our move to the current house in Florida, the whole cul-de-sac gather in one persons driveway and we set up our Halloween candy together. We line up each houses bowl of candy in a row on tables. We all dress up in costumes. Have Halloween accessories out. Robotic scary things, big scarecrows, ghosts that jump out etc. kids get to hit 10 houses of candy all st once. We get to meet neighbors instead of just kids at our door.

My uncle was the Chief of Police in the town I grew up in. At age 20 ( 1977 ) I wore a Big Foot suit around town, I went everywhere scaring the crap out of kids and ladies. Some parents went as far as turn me in or call in to report it. Of course they knew and let them in on the gag.

Back then, kids went everywhere for candy, now days with society the way it is in the small towns, the side streets are not very busy, kids crowd the downtown business for candy. You don't get to do the fun stuff as much as before.

Best horror movie ever.

Trick r Treat it is for planet movie night!

We have a nice walking trail through the woods by my house. I keep wanting to dress up as a werewolf and Sprint across it. Set up cameras hiding and get reactions and interviews afterwards.

I fully support this post and it's somewhat under rated

I love Halloween. As a kid we always did like you and spent hours hitting every house in the entire neighborhood.



As an adult, now with young kids of my own we always make sure to do great costumes and we even throw a Halloween party for my son's friends at our house.


My favorite costume so far is the Ghostbusters one I made. The proton pack had flashing lights and the proton wand flashed and had sound.

Better teach him not to ever cross streams with that thing.

If I can make it a trip to Kansas City for the Donkey game I'd like to go to one of them haunted house but i know they are expensive i think.

I decorate the shit out of my house. I use a Michael Myers animatronic stand up, plus a bunch of other things. As a kid it was my favorite holiday and it still is.

I think that was more than Halloween.


Edit: insert pic of crystal ribbed plunger here...

Much to my girlfriend's chagrin, my Halloween tradition seems to be tailgating for the UF-Georgia game here in Jacksonville. But, it seems to fall on it every year.

We were far to poor to afford costumes when I was a youngster so our tradition was I would wear one of my sisters dresses and she would wear my clothes.

"It's ok Hoops, it's ok.

Hi, my name is Rausch, and I was an Altar Boy."

*Hi Rausch!*

Oh the creator of the KOREAN version of Old Boy - Sign me the **** up, son!

we should chill. No homo.

Halloween = Listening to Nightmare Before Christmas Soundtrack.

And going to the pub to see the all the women dress up like prostitutes, because that's what they do anymore.

<----Slowly backing up and not making any sudden moves...

You aren't a serious baller unless you used a pillow case. Paper bags were for the unambitious and using a plastic pumpkin for your candy was for little kids.

I beg the internet gods for Rainman to make a poll based on this, AND ONLY THIS, quote...

GO ON, BALLER!

Did any of you characters get rolled for your candy?

I had a full pillowcase of candy, must have been 10 years old, and some older kids rolled me for my stash. Still mad about it today

shit - uhh; which town?! :(

As a kid our neighborhood was considered safe (other than getting the ever-loving-shit beaten out of me.) I grew up as a blonde haired, blue eyed, DEUTSCH kid in a mostly black and white-prison-guard/factory dominated neighborhood.

Once me and my friends were freshmen we would play nice for candy (mostly to scout houses with girls we wanted to bang) and beg some younger bully to give us an excuse to beat the piss out of him (JUSTIFIED.)

The circle of life.

Hakuna matata...

Oh stop...

I miss and love you.

Easily the second best holiday, absolutely love it

I can still remember the smell of opening one of those 70s premade costume boxes with the little mask

https://goo.gl/images/ZvvjDS

https://goo.gl/images/qu5RWg

It wasnt always those though, got a little older and started to get creative... always loooved getting those vampire/zombie makeup kits with the fake blood, the more expensive the better, and making something up

Absolutely loooved it

Theres always just been something in the air that time of year, IMO

Some of the best memories are from Halloween. Especially around the Chiefs SB IV win. I was 9. Back then open burning of leaves was still allowed and the smell was directly connected to fall, football, and Halloween.

There were no predator monsters at the time, kids ran from house to house with no parents in tow and no fear, all in the pursuit of the best candy.

The houses that played along by playing spooky music and dressing up in costume to hand out candy were mobbed by kids. I wish I could go back in that time just once to witness it again.

Much later, when we lived in town my wife would dress up as a witch to hand out candy. We were a popular house. We then built far out on an acreage where the nearest neighbors are a mile away. To this day our porch light comes on at 6 and shut off at 8 with nobody stopping. 22 years running no trick or treaters other than the neighbors stopping for a trick or beer.

Then that douche Bush changed daylight savings time change to the first week of November which means now where I live a lot of the trick or treating happens in daylight or dusk. BULLSHIT.

Did someone say gays?

ROFL

Love that cancer smell.

Yep. Funner as a grown up I think.

Red, I've got similar memories of treating with a pillow case, literally sprinting to the next house. Best years where when there was an early fall dew/fog/drizzle going on. When I'd get home, I'd stick my head right into the pillowcase and rummage through. Eventually sorting all candies by "type".

Then it was barter time with my siblings.

Nice! I like it.

yes queen I did.

yes! I still remember being about 8, and it began raining fairly steady on one side of the street only. I still remember to this day because the whole way we walked for quite a while it just rained on one side. First time I'd ever seen that.

Is this your version of MLK's "I have a dream"? ROFL

I feel bad about it today. But when those older kids rolled me for my candy and took my whole nights work (pillow case full of candy), I couldn't go home empty handed. I found some younger kid and rolled him for his stash. I hope he rolled somebody in turn.

Also, Remember the drug scare? People putting drugs like LSD into candy? It gave my Mom a perfect excuse to seize all my good candy and claim it was suspicious of being laced with drugs.

ROFL

:clap: Yes for sure.

All right partner, Keep on roll'n baby, you know what time it is

Be sure to buy a Silver Shamrock mask! Fun for everyone!

Went through one of if not the spookiest and best haunted house ever today in Russell ks. It was freaking bad ass to the bone. It only cost $5

So, did you piss or shit yourself? Or make someone else piss or shit them self. Both answers are acceptable.

Yes/Yes

Note to self. Stay away from haunted house in Russell, KS.

The creepy lady holding her placenta fetus wanting me to hold her baby was creepy standing next to a bloody toilet.

Starting a new tradition at my place. I got it set up for projection on side of my house and every night through Halloween going play horror movies. I think it's going be a cool setup for Halloween fun.

Outstanding
