1 Best Halloween Memory:

When I was 6 or 7, I dressed up like a fairy princess and went trick-or-treating with my dad until my entire bag was overflowing with candy. We came home after and watched a long late-night marathon of The Munsters while I ate enough candy to get sick, and I fell asleep in my sparkly princess dress with chocolate all over my face. YUMMA!

1 Best Halloween Memory:

The local Halloween parades were a highlight of my teenage years. They were the first time I was allowed to actually participate in Halloween since I Was in marching band, and my family struggled coming up with an excuse. Seeing all of the people come out to eat candy and listen to marching band covers of “Thriller” and “The Monster Mash” confirmed that this was a holiday I was tired of missing out on

1 fave memory:  I don't know if it's my favorite, but when I was 7 yrs old, I wanted to dress as a mummy, so I ripped up a bunch of thermal underwear and wore that as my costume.  For some reason I thought I'd look EXACTLY like a mummy if I did this.

3 Fave Halloween Candies:

So the Halloween candy one is a bit tricky for me, idk what the attitude is now but while I was growing up trick or treating was not widely done, it was kind of looked-down upon as an American import. I only went once I think?

3 Fave Halloween Films

I’m going to adjust this slightly and say if I was putting on an adult Halloween party I would show Killer Klowns from Outer Space, Sorority Row, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

3 Fave Things About Halloween

- Halloween coincides with Winter drawing in, when the nights become longer than the days (in this part of the world) which really sets the spooky mood.

- I like wandering around town and seeing Halloween decorations and novelties, everyone else is on my wavelength for once

- There’s always so many amazing-sounding events going on, one year here it was ghost stories at the castle, there are parties, ghost hunts, murder mystery nights…

1 Fav Halloween memory

… I must’ve been about 9, I was in this children’s drama club that ran a week-long Halloween event over the October half term, five days of games, acting and dress up, and on the final day we had professional stage makeup and prosthetics and I got this massive realistic open gash on my right cheek, and that night there was a big party with all the kids and families

IF I went trick or treating…. Hmmm… I’d want maoams, jelly skulls, and drumstick lollipops.

Top 3 Fave Things About Halloween:

- Corn mazes. I love going to corn mazes, getting a hot cup of apple cider and getting lost for a few hours, or years, or whatever. Even better if they are horror themed!

- October is the only month that I really felt okay to be me. I'm into some really spooky and macabre stuff and it's fun to see everyone else get into the things I'm into all year round.

- I love haunted houses!!!!

My favorite Halloween memory was making multiple costumes, going trick or treating, going home, emptying my pillowcases of candy, hopping into a second costume and hitting the town for a round 2. In hindsight, my parent really should have stopped me from getting the extra candy!!

1 of my best Halloween memories is the year my mother spent so much time trying to help me get my costume right—as always, seriously, my costumes were incredible— that she ran out of time and money (not that we had much of either to begin with) to make hers a little less objectively horrifying and I got to see her accidentally scare the ever-loving shit out of my baby cousins with this DIY Big Bird costume:
