I hope I'll get some better pictures this year!

Halloween is always home decorating time. I'm always seeking something new to keep up all year round. As of right now I have a latex gargoyle, perching raven, and a string of purple lights. I wanted to get the Halloween dishes last year but they were a bit expensive, plus I wasn't even in my house yet.

Wait...so Halloween ISN'T everyday...?

Crap. I've been doin' it wrong.

Halloween is everyday but it is only a few weeks out of the year that stores sell Halloween decor.

Not for a few weeks, stores usually start off waaaay earlier with the Halloween stuff. Just today, I stopped by two stores that already had their Halloween stuff set up. Totally cool!

I'll post pictures of some of the guys that keep me company *before moving with the boyfriend and all*

But, yeah, my place is totally Halloween-oriented. I have tons of latex masks and lots of bats hanging in my bedroom ceiling and decorations, stuffed dead bears, ect. ect. I'll post more when I take pictures.

i wish the stores around me would start early, they only get the stuff out early October.

This is the time of year I start planning my costume. I have a friend who throws a huge Halloween party every year, and it's a big deal with my friends.

Mine too.
In fact my town is pretty small so this might be the biggest deal we have all year.

I love the pics Raven.

Here at our 'dollar store' they start selling Halloween stuff in August.
I love the nick nacks they have.
Last year I bought cute little candles in Jack-o-Lantern glass holders. And a Black candle holder with Jack-o-Lanterns cut out of it. Black cat decorations. Skull goblets. A skull head on a string that flashes. My string of skeletons http://photos-g.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v194/180/10/510338732/n510338732_397750_855.jpg

Eventually I'll take some pics to show the cuteness of it.

My brother being the crazy freak that he is LOVES Halloween. His room is already creey but he decorates every year with is string of pumpkin and skull lights. And he brings out the some masks from the vault.
This is his room all year round. Well part of his room.

I should have got those skeletons last year while I could. If they come available again this year, I know precisely were to hang them.

I wanna get more.
They are so cute.

But other than that really nothing, im hoping that that I can do something special but I will have to wait and see what happens nearer that time. Id love to go to WGW (Whitby Gothic Weekend) because it does fall on Halloween (Friday) would be awesome to go.

Is anyone dressing up?? Or got any plans that would like to share with us??

That is so cool. I'd probably pee my pants. I get scared easily.

My friends aren't big on Halloween parties.
And I have no idea where to go here for a party. My brother goes to a bar that has everyone dressed up.
My bf probably wouldn't dress up.
I was thinking of hanging out at my bf's place with his mum (who loves Halloween) and getting drunk hahah

I am wearing my flapper costume this Halloween:

I got a good start on it this weekend, and I ordered the beads for it too. We have a costume contest at work so I'd better win!

oooh. Nice.

I think I'll wear my gothic lolita outfit for Halloween this year, granted it doesn't land on a Tuesday or Thursday.

I love Tim Curry-

^I have that bookmarked!

Over on GWE's board... Kas posted about them redoing RHPS... I'm in mourning.

I have to get working on my costume for this year. Last year I was a pin up girl. Have no idea about this year. Time to get cracking.

That's hilarious

I wasn't anything last year and I don't think I will be anything this year. I guess I prefer to enjoy the decor and atmosphere then to stand out and wear a costume. Wait, I did wear a costume, it's was on the same theme that I wear everyday.

Hee that reminds me of when I had no real plans Halloween night, so I just handed out candy at my house. Our next door (Land's End sporting, soccer mom) neighbor says to me, "I like your costume!" I smiled back at her, gave her kids their candy, and as I closed the door, said, "Thanks.. not a costume".

The look on her face was priceless.

You should have flashed your fangs and said, "These are real."

Halloween isn't Halloween without HALLOWEEN

Why no tuesday or thursday?
