Halloween?

[TenkiStar Owns You]

Since its just around the corner, I figured I should ask what everyone's plans are for Halloween. Do you celebrate? What is your costume going to be?

My family's pagan and this (Samhain) is considered our New Year, so we go all out. But I'm excited more so because this year I'm going to a friend's costume/birthday party as a modern interpretation of Eris (the Greek goddess of Chaos).

So yeah... share plans, pictures, whatever :)

[Munky]

Halloween is my favorite holiday, my sig and avatar are all set-up for halloween :lol

Anyway, I'd probably go out with my friends in the middle of the night and venture to a dark cold town and walk around the cemetary and see if we see something. It what me and my buds have been doing since college :)

[Decado]

hmm.. well halloween seems to be more American... or is entirely amercian. so here in Australia hardly anything happens :(
lolz... i never really got to experience true halloween just like there's no "white christmas" (no snow - fricken summer here during Xmas).
But yeah, we do have kids who dress up and go knocking on doors to get free candy XD
But nothing too special sadly.

[Munky]

Well yeah it is, in our place we call Halloween as All Soul's Day. Mostly we remember the dead like festivals or visiting the graves of the dearly departed. :)

[Kurai-chan]

^^the same goes for us here. we rarely wear costumes and scary stuffs. all we do is gather all of our friends and exchange scary stories or watch scary movies like the grudge, hills have eyes, etc.. and during november 1, we always go to the cemetery to visit our departed family members.

[Evanesque]

We don't really celebrate Halloween as a serious occasion, we do it just for fun. Halloween's a real nice day...oh hey btw, do you guys get holidays for halloween? Just curious. We don't.

I wish! I usualy have midterms around that time *sighs* Although if you're pagan you can put in with your college to take time off for the holiday at the beginning of the semester, but I never bothered to do so because my family usually celebrates on the weekend... and I'm too lazy to deal with the paperwork. :)

[Munky]

We get one week off from work and school here :lol

Really? I didn't know they would consider giving a holiday at all. That's nice to know. Ok I'm not exactly familiar with paganism, I have an idea but I want to be fully accurate so can anyone give me a brief outlook on the subject, if this is the right thread to discuss it, that is.

Thanks.

[Kurai-chan]

i guess we're Lucky because most of the time, that day is declared as a holiday but if not, they make sure that it is included within our sem-break. so, yeah. either way, we have no classes during that day. ^_^

[Munky]

I see that we have similar traditions Kurai-chan. :)

May I ask where you live?

[Dark Zero]

ah Halloween one of my favorites. hmmm should i be death or a neo shadow, so hard to choose

[Kurai-chan]

@Gaiden~Sama: i noticed that too.. and to answer your question, i just live here.. in the Philippines. ;)

[Munky]

@Kurai-chan: Ah, figures. Pinoy nga :p

[Kurai-chan]

@Gaiden~Sama: tsk tsk. I never knew you were one of the Filipino people here in CB.. ;) lolz. and i guess we should already stop posting unrelated things in this thread because... it's bad. hahaha. :p

[adorkable]

I haven't 'celebrated' Halloween for about 7 years. :P

Around here, no one really goes trick-or-treating, and it never really was a big thing for me. Halloween is a school day for me this year. To be honest, I think having a holiday on Halloween is ridiculous. >.>

[Z_Blitz]

Limit the chat spam please :).

I live in the same country as Evanesque does so she pretty much answered it for me. Other than that there is the fact that I don't like going to loud parties so there's a fairly decent chance I'll stay indoors during that day =p.

[Chrono Detector]

We don't really celebrate Halloween here. Whats the meaning of Halloween anyway? I know its some American holiday, do you guys actually get a day off?

If I was younger and I lived in America, I would go trick of treating. Too old for that now.

[Munky]

Will do Z_Blitz :)

In the U.S. they take Halloween as a celebration incorporating the dead. More likely its a holiday where you can go around and spook people.

[Achilles]

we don't celebrate Haloween in Turkey.

[Lucki]

eeeek i love halloween fun fun fun ^_^ i used to go trick or treating but now i just go to parties with my friends. I remember when i was younger like 6 and i did a halloween party and decorated the whole house, sadly after waiting outside for an hour no one turned up. But any ways this year i have a really cool costume, like a dark angel. A lacy black top with a gothic skirt and black furry angel wings mwhahaha. I might attempt to make a halo..

[urusai!]

I remember dressing up for Halloween when I was.... seven or so? Then after that I don't recall ever going trick-or-treating.

My school has a halloween dance party which I'll never go to.

[Angel_shikigami]

I'm gonna dress up as a vampire and trick-or-treat. I'm probally getting to old for this now, but I'm gonna milk this free candy stuff for all its wortb. MAHAHAHA. When they stop giveing me candy cuz they say I'm too old I'll ether wear a mask (I'm short. I'll blend right in.) or hire a kid to do it for me. MUHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!1

[Lucki]

Angel....i love the way you think...mwahhaha

[db]

Um, going to school :P, definitely not working thats for sure, especially since my bday is before this day :O And I dont dress up, too lazy :D

[*Hollow*Ichigo]

I never really have a plan i just mostly out up decorations and CELEBRATE! i dont go around getting candy anymore but i give out the candy =D

[Askand]

I used to celebrate, but then things change. Is not a traditional innocent celebration anymore. My mother took the fun saying that is a devil's celebration. And since I'm not in tha mood I just limit myself to lock down and not going out till the next day. In some cases well I just stay calm.

[Dissidia]

I haven't really done anything for halloween in years. This year I'll probably be working, and forced to dress up as a zombie or something :lol Ack, money is money I guess...

[Alienor]

There's no real Halloween in France. Depending on where you live, some neighbourhoods do the trick or treat, but definitely not where I live...
I'll probablydo something alone with my little bro, though.

Thats kinda what me and my freinds do I wanna watch Hills Have Eys badly heard its very scary.

[Munky]

Yeah, watching scary movies and talking about that scary shit is the way to go!
Thats what me and my bro have been doing ever since he could talk. :D

[candyb3ar]

IM SOOOO EXCITED for halloween, it FR33 candy people whats not to luv, well the uber scary costumes thats bout it, but still im getting dressed up, as a playboy bunny girl...*smiles*

[Thousand Eyes]

I used to love Halloween and I still do quite a bit, but I don't really celebrate it nor any other holiday for that matter. I do what I usually do on Halloween; stay in my basement watching horror movies and read ghost stories online. Actually, the entire month of October feels like one giant Halloween holiday to me. It used to be so much fun when I was a kid. I'll never forget the trick or treating that I used to go on with my friends. Those were the best times.

[Rorschach]

all i do on halloween after i got too old to trick or treat is handout candy, not very fun. not one of favorite holidays, but it is my favorite time of the year.

[Munky]

Im kinda jealous with your "trick or treat" tradition there. If we practiced that here, I'll give the trick or treaters a nasty trick :lol

[DarkShadow]

Halloween means free candy.<3 i'm definatly going trick-or-treating with my friends, (who dosen't want free candy?) and going to some Halloween parties too ^^.....but it sucks that Halloween is on a Tuesday, meaning you can't stay out that long cuz you have school tomorrow T__T

[~*~Rukia~*~]

I love Halloween. Free sweets FTW lol and parties!I have a halloween rukia avatar ready for the day as well lol.

[Munky]

Parties... halloween parties where you must wear a creepy costume?

[blackrican]

i don't celebrate halloween not ever since i found out stuff bout it. i used to go trick or treating when i was younger. but now i just get a big bag of candy, chill out with friends and watch horror movies. that or i just go fear at frontier which is at a haunted baseball field and it has 5 haunted houses and creapy characters walking around scaring you as u wait. its pretty fun, i went last year with my cuz and i will never go with her again. :D

[Munky]

Rad \m/

Hey anyone know a good site featuring ghost encounters, true ghost stories and stuff like that?

[Rorschach]

[Momo]

^holy crap O_O

anyways, here in El Salvador, they dont celebrate it... for reason that its the day of Satan's day. BUT if I was in Korea, fo sure, I go dress and peek- a- boo~ xD

[Munky]

this site has tons of ghost pics
http://ghoststudy.com/fresh.html

Thanks alot Kong. *+reps*
There used to be a really awesome site called SFOGS, but now somethings wrong with it and it somehow became a forum >.>

@momo: Woe, I didnt know that some places call it Satan's day. :O

[Elise Lenne Fevout]

I plan on being Peter Pan with a little UNICEF box to collect money for charity.

[nikuwadoko]

I don't celebrate but I'm very much in the Halloween mood :)

but, maybe I'll wear a simple costume? I don't know.

[ayame_miha]

Well, my birthday is on Halloween... So I party anyway :D ... But we don't officialy party this holiday, some people say it has bad influence >_<... In school we used to make parties on the friday be4 it... We had weird costumes and we decorated the class... We had an English teacher that helped us with all the stuff, she was very funny and nice. It brings up memories ^-^... We go and visit the thumbs of dead ones in the 1st of November (it's some kind of day when we celebrate the dead one...friends or from the family usually)...
So, let`s have fun :D

[TenkiStar Owns You]

That's such an awesome idea! I've never thought of trick or treating for charity... I might do that next year :)

[Nomadic Dragon]

I plan on dressing up for Halloween. I use it as an excuse to make a costume..lol. I'm way too old to go trick or treating but I'm going to spend all day in my costume then go to a costume contest.

[Tablo.]

I'm seriously not gonna join halloween, but I will scream "BANKAI!!!! HITSUGAYA, MOMO, SOI-FONG, AND ICHIGO ARE COOL!!!!!!!" in my room a lot of time. Then when my older sibling mad about it, I'll scream, "AAAHHH!!!! A HOLLOW IS HERE!!!!" runs around to escape from them, then take a Zanpaktou, hit their heads. Then goes calm down again, and start the beginning again. *smirk* But I might wear a shinigami clothes (well, my mom has a simple black kimonos, boys and girls.) then have a Bleach Halloween Party with my friends it my house!

[Akiha]

im going to be boxerman! put a pair of boxers on my head and voila! boxerman!

[Xalala]

Unfortunately we're not going to be having Halloween *tear*. I don't get to pass out the candy...which means I can't eat the candy while passing it out! Damn you Walmart for kidnapping my mother (she's got work) and Dads too lazy to give a care. :sad

[Akiha]

^ i pass out candy as well. greedy little kids..><

[Munky]

If we practiced treak or treating, i'd probably dress up as a Gillian Menos Grande and stalk some the people in my neighborhood. Its like I'll pass infront of them, later on ill view them from afar, always staring at them. :Haha that'd be fun

[SanbanTaichouChan]

:)
First I'll be going to the Rocky Horror Picture show as a YATTA! girl
Then I'm holding a Halloween party dressing up as an ANBU.

Tis going to be great. ^_^

[Munky]

Awesome idea. btw, is that you on your avatar? :O

[raisins]

unfortunately...
we don't celebrate hallowean in my country XD
too bad..
but happie hallowean to all ^^

but chinese do hv a special day where we visit our departed relatives grave and so ^^
but no trick or treat XD

[Xalala]

*throws candy into air*

[kaede822]

it isnt our practice here to go treak or treating and have some halloween-themed parties at home ^^ so yeah, basically we just go visit our departed loved ones and then have a party at the cemetary (not kidding). the cemetary has more people, more lights and more foods than any other place during that time.

[Lady Ushio]

hmm...If I'm going to a holloween party, I want to dress up like a school girl...It's sexy... I think... ^_^

[Deathscyth Hell]

I feel a little to old to be in a costume and trick-or-treat. So I'm just gonna have a big horror movie fest :P.

[Tanya]

Mm where I live, everyone goes trick-or-treating, despite their age :p (I'm talking about school kids, not adults >_>). Everyone here are all like 'zomg I miss being young' and do all the things like this. Umm, I'm probably going to trick-or-treat myself with my sister and our group of friends (ages ranging from 15-18 :p). We're all probably going to dress up as crayons so we can all match. Maybe a few people will be a crayon box or paper, who knows? lol it'll be fun, I hope.

[EDIT] Oh yeah, Nevada Day is on Halloween as well, so they usually give us a day off. But since Halloween is on a tuesday this year, they just gave us the 27th off =p

[gbtennisjunky]

where i live, halloween just became popular 2 years ago. so it's not something as big as in the USA.
but more and more kids are going treat or tricking which makes it very fun.

as far as a costume, i won't be wearing anythin fancy, probably just a monster mask or something. eventually make up.

anyway,

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! :)

[emmasu]

HAPPY HALLOWEEN:Domo

Am going to aparty tonight.............yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[Cloud]
