Anybody still dress up for Halloween?

[Le Chuck]

I do. Wife and I throw a giant blowout every year.  This year I'm going as Sterling Archer in his tacticalneck getup replete with ISIS NVDs. Some cheapo goggles and IL Wire and I've got a fun costume. What're you going as this year?

A few years ago, my wife and I along with her family dressed up as m&m's. I was the brown m&m.  We wore hanes sweat shirts with an m on the front.

Otherwise I have a go-to pirate costume.  I bought it to drink rum in.

[Le Chuck]

Last year I was Shrunken Head Beetlejuice (wedding tux of course). Year before that was the big bad wolf with a modded jaw action mask and digitigrade food mods. Both those were pretty good. Eventually I'll build my grail costume. The Dark Helmet getup from Space Balls.

More like Bubbles from the future!

Love, love, love Archer.  Krieger is my favorite character though.  I'm doing a cosplay of Krieger for Comicon next year.  My kid is gonna do Archer.  The main question is, where am I gonna find a glow in the dark piglet to carry in my pocket?

Halloween though, we don't do much.  Being in the SCA I dress in unusual clothes on a pretty regular basis so Halloween loses a bit of its charm.

[Le Chuck]

@ Ginsu, wat?

@slippy, Krieger is awesome. The piglet is easy, just get a stuffed one and slather it in chemlight juice for a few hours of glow.

Coked out and modding guns Krieger?

Sounds like you need to check out Trailer Park Boys. It's on Netflix.

[Nephasth]

Had to dress up for handling some nasty ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- at work the other day. Have these suits, half mask respirators, goggles, and gloves stocked at work, figure I might as well go as W.W. for Halloween this year...



I'm the less fat one...

[thomas_surles]

Totally. Here is my wife and I, pre marriage. 4 years ago. Not sure what I will be this year just finished decorating.

Sure are a lot of white people on this forum

You are nothing, if not random.  What made you say that?

I have been using my Ambi.

[SavannahLion]

Grim Reaper with a black mask until recently.

Found my self naked in bed one year and I'm not sure where it disappeared off to. I strongly suspect it's now part of a monthly stage act at a nearby, and very popular, bar. I tried to go back and get it but there was this huge mob and barely made it out sober.

Le Chuck - Any putty nose pics of you as Cyrano de Bergerac?

I never usually dress-up for Halloween but then I threw a little party last year and someone dared me to dress as Elvira.  So I did it.  It was a pain in the ass (had to shave my goatee for it) but good for a laugh I suppose.

This year I'm finding something much simpler.

[Alistair Keith]

I didn't celebrate Halloween til recently. Didn't really see the perks of without children around. I don't dress up though.

Lol, god, maybe. Way before digital tho which means I'd have to go attic spelunking at my parents house so likelihood of seeing those anytime soon is nil

I'm pretty content dressing up my kids for Halloween. I think the costume I am most proud of was when I dressed up my 2 yr old as Darryl from the Walking Dead, complete with a jr. sized crossbow and severed ear necklace.

[ChadTower]

I never did Halloween in college because I was always working.  Once I had kids right out of college it was always all about them.  My kids are teenagers now and just about done with trick or treating.  I'm not sure what I'll do this year.  This might be the first year since the late 90s I don't take anyone door to door.

[eds1275]

I LOVE HALLOWEEN. I proposed to my wife on that day. This year I don't know what I'm going to do for a costume since I am also attending a wedding and have to play guitar as the bride goes down the aisle so I need to have mobility. This is what I was wearing when I proposed to my wifey in 2010.



I made a facehugger out of clay, then poured a bunch of latex on it. Filled the legs with cotton balls. Turned out awesome.


Last year we had no plans until the last second, and so I threw this together in 10 minutes - welding mask, hooray for boobies t-shirt, and some car jumper cables.





another dress up day:

[RoyalScam]

I usually dress up for my birthday, and it's nice that all of you celebrate with me.  This was last year, I'm not sure what I'll do this year. By the way I work Third Shift 11 pm to 7 am usually, and wore this all night along with all the vampires, Duck Dynasty, Super Heroes and slutty zombies.  First shift always looks at us as a bit strange, that day I think we may have frightened them.

[opt2not]

Mad scientist!!!  This was a couple years ago...

[Zrooney]

Opt2not, you sort of resemble the medic from TF2.

[Le Chuck]

Now we're seeing some kick ass costumes! Keep it coming!! Tis the season bishes!!!

[jdbailey1206]

My favorite homemade costume was when I went as Ash from Evil Dead 2.  Sorry about the blurry photo.  I uploaded better pictures of the chainsaw itself.  One of my more favorite things to build.

[shponglefan]

^ That's an awesome Ash costume

I've dressed up a couple times over the last 4-5 years.  This one was from a few years ago; went as a cheesy porn director.

[eds1275]

stash... not big enough

[jdbailey1206]

eds pictures remind me of how my wife and I start our date nights.

Part of your picture is cut off.  I think that might have been on purpose but I'm going to assume it was an accident and you really want to share the other *ahem* costumes that are partially shown.

Yeah.  Why you no show cast of movie Mr. Director?   

[shponglefan]

Sorry guys, in the interest of protecting the guilty those pics will have to remain secret.  Feel free to use your imaginations, though.

Great movie.  Loved him as Pennywise also.

[brihyn]

This year I'm finding something much simpler.

Haven't dressed up in years, but one of my favorite past costumes...and it doesn't get simpler than this...found some doll-like toy or something at the store, cut off all of the hair, and glued it to my palms.

[deadmoney5]

I'm the guy who turns off all the lights on Halloween

Awhile back me and the ex went as Drew Carey and Mimi to a party..took second place and won a Scream 2 VHS movie.  I had to die my hair blond, buy some thick rimmed glasses, and wore a suit. Ex wife stuffed a pillow underneath a moomoo and put on tons of makeup.
