Once Halloween passes us by, please post a picture here of you decked out in your costume. Submitted for your approval, this is last year's pics from the Hamedo Clan.

There's me, the Hulk, accompanied by my darling wife, the "doctor".



Then there's my daughter Brielle, starring as a ladybug.



Then there's the costume I used for work during the day of Halloween.... Beefcake.



And finally, as an added bonus, a drunk Hulk kicking some 1950's teen slasher film's werewolf's punk ass.





Alright, there's a few to get everyone started! This Halloween, post your pics of you and your family and friends in their costumes on here, and let's see how wierd the CoN community really is.

99 Final Fantasy's on the wall, 99 Final Fantasy's, you take one down, play it all down... 98 Final Fantasy's to go!

You look awesome as The Hulk, lol, nice one, glad you had a great time.

I will have to dress up for halloween eventually, it looks like so much fun!

Multiple pictures were taken, but that was by far my favorite. Ahh, I scared so many kids, it was great.

ZH, why didn't you dress up?

I'm not too big on Halloween, sure candy is great, but to go around in the cold to talk to strangers and get candy that you don't really get to choose isn't my idea of a good time. I went out to eat instead. Great pictures, though.

I find your lack of faith disturbing...

The meaning of Halloween changes when you grow up. When you're an adult, the holiday mean sthat you dress up in a silly/scary/sexy outfit to get attention, and drink yourself stupid. Plus you can legally go out in a mask and scare little kids all you want. Or lastly, it's an excuse for men who secretly want to cross-dress, but don't have the guts to do it any other day of the year and for women who want to wear lingerie in public.

Halloween is so much fun! Sorry I have no costume pics.

The first duty in life is to assume a pose,
and the second duty is...well, no one's found out yet.

I generally love Halloween, but I didn't dress up this year...........

With the exception of that "pimp" hat I found in my house..........I know go figure.

My youngest, Christa, was a flower this year. Slept through the whole trick-or-treat excursion.


My middle child, Brielle, was a pilgrim. I was Michael Vick.


My wife didn't participate in the dressup..... spoilsport. My son Hunter was Leonardo, but he was at his mother's house this Halloween.

That about sums it up. I dressed up with a bunch of friends and went to I think three Halloween parties over the weekend. I didn't do any drinking, it was fun peoplewatching and going crazy in general.

Oh, and my group was a pirate ninja, a zombie Elvis, MC Hammer, a cymbal monkey, and the eighth deadly sin: emo (basically dressing as emo as possible). Can anyone guess who I was?

END SPOILER

although i don't have any pics, last year i was a drug dealer.

this year i was a twelve-year-old who didn't go trick or treating. creepy, eh?

it turned out to be more fun giving out candy though.
one kid took too much, so i pulled a butter knife on him. he thought it was real and ran like hell.

New most adorable child EVER.

Alas, I was busy at my Open Dress Rehearsal on Monday. So technically, I was in costume as two different women. Good times... ^^;;

Too bad I never have any Halloween pictures.

Me and a group of five friends went to a party, though. For the past few years we've gone with intentionally unusual costume themes; this year, for example, we dressed up as different unimportant, minor characters from various horror films. I went as Nancy's mother from the first Nightmare on Elm Street, complete with half a bottle of gin.

I sat in my dormroom. Some of the guys showed up for a few minutes. That was pretty much it. I had all this online homework crap due at 12:00. Afterwards, I walked around a little, but seriously everyone went to Madison to raise hell on State Street like every year. This year wasn't so bad there though i guess, they only had to teargas a few parts and nobody even died.

--------------------

The clouds ran away, opened up the sky
And one by one I watched every constellation die
And there I was frozen, standing in my backyard
Face to face, eye to eye, staring at the last star
I should've known, walked all the way home
To find that she wasn't here, I'm still all alone

One of the guys I worked with in Chicago wanted to go to Madison for the pre-Halloween Saturday night, but he bailed out. I didn't realize it was close enough to downtown to make it worth the while.

Halloween weekend was my last weekend in Chicago, and I had my two best friends up from Springfield to hang out. We weren't planning on doing anything Halloweenish, had no costumes or anything, but by luck we stumbled in to my favorite downtown Chicago bar, a campy dueling piano place called Howl at the Moon. They went all out, with a big costume contest (won by a husband and wife playing "lesbian ballerinas"), and lots of Halloween and costume-inspired music. The wait staff was all in costume, one of them as Michael Jackson; naturally, he sang a few songs with the band, and when he got to "Thriller" the rest of the wait staff zombie-walked to the dance floor and did the zombie dance from the video. Later they did the Time Warp, but they always do that; the highlight of the evening was when the girl in the band broke out a fiddle and played a near-perfect "Devil Went Down to Georgia."

You do seem to be faring quite well at these forums thus far. Keep it up! -R51

I like your Halloween story, Josh. The trouble with small town life is that there are no places like Howl at the Moon for adults to frequent. Sounds like you had a blast.

There aren't enough pictures of people in costumes here! So instead of Halloween, I'll post a piture of Mario at the Calgary Stampede in 1992, along with a few kids in gawdawful late 80's poor people garb. I'm the oldest one on the left.

That's great, but it's totally irrelevant. -R51

Don't look the Mario in the eyes, kids....

Now that I think of it, we *do* have one place here in Franklin.... It's called Minnie's Down Under. It features live bands from Asheville on occasion, and usually has a party for things like Halloween and New Years. It's biggest drawback, though, is that it's one of those dives that makes you BYOB, and then you have to buy it BACK from the house, due to the stringent liquor laws here in Macon county.

Very Godly pics guys..

However, i do not beleive in Hallowen, that's just my personal beleif. But, Happy (late) Halloween.

I know I'm 2 weeks late, but me and my wife just bought a scanner, and I want to show off our costumes a bit.



Between the two of us, only spend $12-15 on our costumes (made bellbottoms from old pair of jeans, only thing we really paid for was the wigs, and my chops and soul patch)

Though I couldn't find a picture of me this halloween in my kilt, I did find pictures of me about a year or so ago, when my sis got married, with me wearing the kilt. So, add some time, make it nighttime, add a lot of hair (down past the shoulders), remove the dagger (damnable laws not allowing me to wear it), and Voila!, my costume at halloween.


Second dude on the far right, or, second person to the right of the dude with the green mohawk. Yes, it is a great kilt (one piece of fabric, about 10 feet long). I really like that staff too.


every part of that costume is mine: the brooch, the kilt, the shirt, the staff, the belt, and the boots. Though the Animal skin pouch was borrowed.


and here I am tying my boots. You may also notice the dagger I mentioned earlier by now. That actually is my sisters, but she left it at my house when she moved out, and it matches a sword I have.

The whole outfit cost more than $400, and counted towards my Birthday and X-mas presents from my parents (Yea, I didn't get presents from them that year)Ironically enough, I never won a costume contest at my school with this getup. (i hate my school, full of preppies and jocks, a place where popular people rule it, not a place for someone like me )
If i were just only Kefka, complete with the ray of judgement and insanity. (sigh)

fixed a few grammatical errors that really bugged me, and added clarity

Fadien: I dig the costumes, man. Always good to hear from another married man in here, too. We have to band together, I say!

Strikerbolt: I love the whole "Highlander" thing you had going on there. I'll bet that was one HELL of a wedding yo.
