Spooky season is nearly upon us. What are you going to go as for Halloween? Are you going to go to a party? Dress up? What are the top costume ideas this year? I'm thinking about throwing a spooky party this year myself. We don't have a big place but I think dressing up like skeletons and dancing in my living room will be a good time. Unfortunately there is a subset of miserable Queenslanders who think that celebrating Halloween is "Un-Australian". Which is fine, but also gently caress them I'm covering my balcony in skeletons and giving out full size candy bars to any kids who dare walk down my spooky street.

Going to a party would require friends, op. I'm going to sit at home and be myself, the scariest thing of all.

A lot of people forget that Halloween is when the veil between the living and the dead is at its most porous. That's why all my costumes include a gun, in case I get chased by spooks OR specters. Dinosaur with a gun, Babadook with a gun, whatever it is, you know I always keep that thang on me.

Halloween is for finding the cool haunted houses with multiple bars on site and getting absolutely wasted

Ill be going as B Girl Raygun, the officially number one ranked female breakdancer in the entire world. https://www.worlddancesport.org/Athletes/Rachael-Gunn-3b0fe60a-3331-4a00-8f78-ade100161ddb#tab=general Its an easy costume, pretty funny, and I can wear the separates as casual sportswear after the fact. Its win win.

Last time I was in the US we went into a Halloween USA in PA and I stomped on a floor trigger thing and a 12 foot tall extendable skeleton horror clown popped out of a box like AAAAHHHHHAHAHAHAHHAHA! It was right as a kid maybe age six came around the corner and they jumped out of their loving shoes. Sorry about the therapy bills, kiddo.

As with every other ill on the planet, I blame social media. That's why this year I'll be going dressed as Immortal Zuck, with a knife snapping on my back and an explosion failing to even disturb my perfect Roman hair.

The cheapest pumpkin spice option I could find was McCormick’s 1.12oz for 4.97. I decided to buy cinnamon, cloves, allspice, and ginger in the bulk section and make my own out of spite.

My 5-year-old daughter and I are planning to dress as Ghostbusters. Over the past year I've acquired full outfits for us, with proton packs and jumpsuits and nametags and whatnot. Here's what her proton pack looks like, I added lighting and paint and decals and a ribbon cable and some other such details:
