Okay
On this day particularly - England sucks. Halloween is quite possibly my favourite holiday of the year. I was a morbid child fascinated more with vampires and ghosts than ponies and fairies (not that I didn't think they were rather cool in their own right), so I used to relish every Halloween when Momo would dress me up as a witch in black bin liners. University years provided many opportunities for Halloween parties, and it was then I started to notice that the more grown up people get the less they want to play dress-up. What's that about! What, silly outfits are only for the bedroom these days???
Luckily I lived with like-minded housemates, and every Halloween we'd throw a big bash and coming up with the best outfits possible. 1st one I was a vampire, so no real innovation there. BUT, 2nd year I went as a human sacrifice, which involved a corset, lots of bloodied white cloth, rope and handcuffs (all with the purpose, you understand, of seducing the then unavailable Babba - since I spent the entire night handcuffed to him, I think you could say that worked).
3rd one i went as a spider type thing - lots of black netting, and plaited hair. And the old knee high FM boots. This was useful for re-seducing aforementioned Babba... Okay, maybe silly outfits are just for the bedroom.
But my point is - I love dressing up for Halloween! But I know very few people who do. People go out on Halloween, and they wear normal sodding clothes. It's just rubbish, and one of these days I'm going to drag my arse over to the US on Halloween, cause dammit they look like they have some fun with it.
Boring old English twots - no appreciation for the weird things in life.
