CREEPY LITTLE FUCKERS PART 2 BY: ZOMBIE ZANE

HAPPY HALLOWEEN Dead End Horror sheep that do the monster mash while having sex with aliens! What’s good? Hope everyone is geared up to have a kick ass Halloween this evening. Here at DEH we’ll be raising the dead in our underwear while we consume copious amounts of candy. What are you gonna be doing?

Anyway, this post is the last of our mega-Halloween edition. We’ve done all kinds of good shit today so if this is the first time you’re checking this out, go back to the first and start there. Don’t want you to miss out. Also, this is a continuation of my last post.

So as you may or may not know, my last post was all about Chiller’s top 13 creepy kids. I gave you my take on numbers 13-7. So, this post will be my take on numbers 6-1. I broke the post in two because it’s longer than hell and I don’t want to overload your senses. So, now that we are on the same page, let me continue with my take on Chiller’s 13 Creepy Kids.


ZOMBIE ZANE’S TAKE ON CHILLER’S TOP 13 CREEPY KIDS
 

6.  Coming in at the 6, Chiller picked Samara from, ‘The Ring.’ I agree to some extent. I wouldn’t have ranked her as high up on the list as they have her, but she would no doubt make the cut. I think I would’ve put her around 10, maybe 11. Anyway, she comes in at the 6.

 
 

5.  ‘...What a wonderful day for an exorcism.’  Linda Blair comes in at the 5 for her role in a little film called, “The Exorcist.” I agree here. I would have her at my number one though. 5 just seems a little too low for me. Especially when you see who they picked for 1.

 

 

4.  Fuck Home Alone! How about Henry from “The Good Son.” I’m talking about Macaulay Culkin for those who have no idea about this movie. I do agree with this one as well. The dark barking scene and the highway man are two of my favorite parts of this film. Great movie! But again, I think he’s a little too high on the list.

 

 

3.  At the 3 spot, we have little Esther from, ‘The Orphan.’ FUCK YEAH! I totally agree here and I agree with her being in the 3 spot. What a trippy fucking film that was! What’s not creepy about an older woman who looks like a kid, wants to fuck her adopted dad and cut off her brother’s pillypacker? CREEPY! One of my favorite horror films as of late.

 
 

2  Coming in at the 2, we have Gage from Stephen King’s Pet Sematary adaptation. I agree here too.  ‘...Now I wanna play with yooooooooooou....’ Yikes and egads! Gage is for sure one creepy little fuck. As far as his 2 spot, I don’t know, maybe a little high here for me but he is well deserving of making the cut.

 

 

1.  Here we are at the 1. I HATE, HATE THIS FUCKING PICK!! For the 1, Chiller choose Damien from, ‘The Omen.’ First off, I hate this movie. It’s old, slow and stuffy. Secondly, I get he’s the son of Satan and all, but fuck off! What about little Michael Myers in this spot? I mean HELLO! Or what about Jason from Friday the 13th? He’s a creepy little fuck too. I totally disagree here. I hate the pick and I hate the movie.

Aren’t all lists kinda anti-climatic at the end? But whatever. Anyway, there you have it. My take on Chiller’s 13 Creepiest Kids. Hope yo enjoyed the list. Also, this is the last post for today. It’s getting late and Sasha and I have some Halloween skullduggery to get to. I think there may be an orgy in our future.

One more thing before we get outta here, please be safe tonight. I know we talk a lot of shit here, but for real. If you drink, don’t drive. There’s gonna be kids and stuff out and we don’t want any accidents. Be responsible, okay.

So on that note, take care, stay a-scared, hope you enjoyed our Halloween shit. Have a happy Halloween and we’ll be back on Thursday.  Be safe everyone!  I am out!

CREEPY LITTLE FUCKERS! BY: ZOMBIE ZANE

HAPPY HALLOWEEN Dead End Horror Creeps! What’s good? It is officially October 31, 2011. Halloween. Don’t ya dig this time of year? Fucking great, right? Throughout the day, we’ve been posting some cool Halloween shit for you to look at and read. So if this is the first post you’ve seen, go back and start at the first. There’s some cool poems, a short story, and some cool Halloween pictures.

As far as this post goes, this will be the next to last post of the day. I mean it’s Halloween night after all and Sasha and I have to be at the graveyard by 7p.m. What? Did you think we were gonna be posting shit all day?

Anyway, as you may or may not know, over the weekend Chiller aired one of their specials. They counted down the top 13 creepiest kids. So in lieu of that, I thought that it would be a good idea to let you know what I thought of the show. I am a professional after all. So kick back and let me tell you what I thought of the show. SPOILER ALERT! I will be breaking this post into two. It’s too long to type out all at once. So, this post is gonna be what I thought of 13-7. Got it? We all on the same page here? Good.

ZOMBIE ZANE’S TAKE ON CHILLER’S 13 CREEPY KIDS

13.  At 13, they put the kid from ‘The 6th Sense.’ Ya know, ‘...I see dead people...’ Not sure I agree here. The puking girl was far more creepier. In my opinion, she should’ve made the cut. What’s not scary about a ghost that shows up in your bed and vomits? Fuck me!

 

 

12.  What about Isaac from Stephen King’s adaptation of ‘Children of the Corn.’ Now this little fuck is uber creepy. He had that pimpin’ hat and that high pitched kinda voice. Totally agree with this pick. Watch out for he who walks behind the rows.

 

 

11.  Coming in at 11, they picked Claudia from ‘Interview with the Vampire.’ I’m kinda on the fence here. She was a malicious little girl. She whacked out a lot of fucking people in that film. Plus she slit Lestat’s throat. I hate Anne Rice’s shit, but this movie was okay. Middle of the road.

 

 

10.  Now this next one I totally disagree. At the 10, they picked Carol Anne from the film ‘Poltergeist.’ I mean, not creepy. Not her anyway. The movie was creepy, but her, not so much. I love the film, but disagree with the pick.

 

 

9.  REDRUM! REDRUM! At the 9 they picked Danny from ‘The Shining.’ I totally agree here! Creepy little fuck and his ability! I loved the book but not so much the movie. Kubrick really fucked it up in my opinion. I agree with King on this issue. But nonetheless, little Danny from ‘The Shining’ fo sho creepy!

 

 

8.  Now at the 8, Chiller picked Abby from the film, ‘Let Me In.’ Now I HATE this fucking remake! Hate it! It’s a pile of fuck compared to the original. But I do agree with the pick here. Although, I would have used the girl from the original. She was a way better actor. Good pick though. Vampire kids are creepy.

 

7.  Now this pick really blew me away! For the 7, they choose to put in Wednesday Addams. What the fuck? Really? No fucking way! ‘The Addams Family’ is more like a comedy for me. I know that she kills her brother and shit like that, but still, not creepy. By the way, I’m talking about the remake here. Not the original TV series. But whatever. I disagree with this.

Well, that’s part one. I’ll post the other half in an hour or so. So in the meantime, feel free to stay here and hang out. Sasha's got some good shit cooking, and I think she may be taking volunteers for our human sacrifice that's going down tonight. So stay a while. Until next time, take care, stay a-scared and I am out. Have a safe and Happy Halloween!

COME AND RIDE ON ME BROOMSTICK BY: SASHA SLAUGHTER

Happy Halloween creeps and creepettes! Thanks for stopping by Dead End Horror on this spooktacular 31st of October. I hope you enjoy what we've got in store for you! It's sure to make your skin crawl...or not. Either way, I promise you, it will more than likely be awesome! =) Today I'll be giving you a little taste of what I do best, and that's poetry my friends. I figured since it's Halloween I'd give you a few Halloween themed poems to sink your fangs into. So enough talk, let's get to it shall we?

THE WITCHES SACRIFICE

Bound thy feet and cut out thy tongue,

they must sacrifice him by midnight for their youth,

and so it shall be done.

They surround the cauldron as they chant their spell,

preparing the man in front of them,

as he stares at them like they've come straight from hell.

Midnight is coming, theres no time to waste,

they must brew their potion and perfect the taste.

The naked man in front of them attempts to escape,

but they've already begun to dismember him,

thus sealing his fate.

The clock strikes twelve and man knows that the time is here,

as the witches stand before him,

he no longer feels any fear.

They promise soon that he will be dead,

as they stir their potion and cut off his head.

The witches desired youth,

the ability to once again be young,

they did everything that the spell required,

and so it was done.

WOW!! How messed up am I?? haha! Well, I guess now that you've read these, it gives you more insight into my warped mind =). Anyway, I hope that you liked them and that they got you into the Halloween mood! They certainly got me into it. Since you're here creeping on my weirdness, how about you stop by and see what Zane's got on the slab for Halloween. It's sure to be creepy! And don't forget to check back on Tuesday for all new stuff here at Dead End Horror. And one more time, HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST BY: ZOMBIE ZANE

HAPPY HALLOWEEN MOTHERFUCKERS! Holy shit! Can you believe Halloween is here already?  This past weekend has been murder here at Dead End Horror. Literally. We raised the dead, got/gave some head. Plus we even had time to throw in an orgy with Satanists and a coven of witches. Sasha and I do like our drunk and debaucherous behavior. So enough about us. What about you?

Since today is Halloween and all, Sasha and I decided to do a mega Halloween post. We’re gonna be doing all kinds of cool shit here today. We got short stories, some Halloween poems, we’re gonna be sharing some of our own Halloween photos with y’all and I’m gonna be giving you my take on Chiller’s 13 Scariest Kids that aired over the weekend. So see, we have a ton of good shit for your ass today. So kick back and spend some time with us.

Okay, this post is gonna be a short story that I wrote a while back. I wrote this for Yahoo so it’s on the PG-13 level. But it’s still a good story if I do say so my self. It takes place in the 50's and it involves escaped mental patients. So see, fucking creepy creep already. Anyway, here’s my short story, enjoy....

OCTOBER 31, 1955

“...We interrupt your scheduled programing to bring you the latest on the three patients that escaped earlier today from The Johnson & Dane State Mental Hospital. Police have just discovered the bodies of three unidentified youths near Bronson Park. Authorities believe that these murders are in fact connected to the three escaped patients.

The investigating officers are not giving out much details at the moment except that the victims were found in their Halloween costumes but were missing their masks and Halloween candy pails. Authorities urge everyone to lock all doors and windows and stay inside as this is a very serious situation. Stay tuned as this tragic story continues to unfold. We now return you to your regular scheduled program already in progress....” 

“Glen, did you hear that?” Nancy asked. “Those poor kids. Maybe we should get out of here and head over to Freddy’s party.”

He took a break from trying to undo Nancy’s bra and sat up back in his seat. “C’mon kitty-cat, don’t be afraid. They said near Bronson Park. Not in Bronson Park. Besides, I didn’t hear any sirens, did you?”

“Of course you didn’t. You were too busy trying to get to second base.” Nancy said as she straightened out her blouse.

“Second base, hell, I was wanting to round third.”                               

She slapped playfully at his arm. “You pig! Is that all you think about?”

“No. I’m far more deeper than you give me credit for.”Glen said just as he let out a huge burp and blew it in her direction.

“Eww, you are such a pig! I don’t know why I even date you Glen Barlow.”

“Because you love me and one day we’re gonna be able to spend...” Glen froze. Outside of the passenger window was someone wearing a Bugs Bunny mask. A Bugs Bunny mask that was much to small for the face that it was trying to conceal.

“BEHIND YOU!” Was all that Glen was able to get out.

“What? There’s nothing there,” said Nancy as she peered out of the window.

“First you burp in my face, and now you’re trying to scare me. Not funny Glen. Not funny at all.”

“Nancy, I swear...there was...something there. It was somebody wearing a Bugs Bunny mask.”

“Bugs Bunny? Get real. If you’re just gonna play games then you can take me home.”

“Nancy, I’m not. I’m not playing games. I really saw something.”

Before she could retort, a loud, thud came from the roof of the car.

“See, I told you I saw somebody! I told you!” Glen said as he reached up to start the car. Another echoing thud was preceded by an intense banging coming from the rear of the car. It sounded like someone was pummeling the car with a bunch of sledgehammers.

“Get us out of here!” Nancy said hysterically.

“I’m trying, I’m trying! The damn car won’t start!”Glen said as he frantically turned the ignition over and over.

The two of them screamed and clutched each other tightly as the unrelenting  pounding intensified. Then the rocking started. Someone or something was rocking the car from side to side. Whatever it was, it seemed to have the strength of more than one man. Maniacal laughter could be heard from outside in the darkness.

 And just like that, the ferocious pounding and furious rocking ceased. Maybe it was just the calm before the storm. Or maybe it was a trick to get them out of the vehicle. The calm and silence made Glen and Nancy even more uneasy.

“I’m going to turn on the headlights,” said Glen.

He reached down, grabbed the small black knob and turned on the headlights. In front of the car stood three masked figures. One was wearing a Bugs Bunny mask, the other was wearing a Bozo the Clown mask, and the third figure was wearing a Frankenstein mask.

The three figures slowly approached the front of the car and stopped just a foot or so from the bumper. All three turned around in unison and pulled their pants down exposing three shinny white hinny’s.

“Trick or Treat!” the three of them yelled.

The three masked mooners turned back around and removed their masks and pulled up their pants. There stood Freddy, Jason, and of course Michael. All three were laughing hysterically.  Nancy and Glen looked at each other. They had just been tricked.  Happy Halloween indeed.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries and some colorful language, Freddy, Jason and Michael followed Glen and Nancy out of Bronson Park and back to the party that was still going on at Freddy’s.

A few minutes after all had left Bronson Park, three masked figures stepped out from the underbrush. They had been so close. They had been so close to getting some wheels. So close until a car load of three teens showed up forcing them back into the underbrush. After a few moments of staring out into the darkness, the three masked figures retreated back to their hiding place. Another car pulled up to where Glen and Nancy had parked and cut off it’s headlights.
                           
Scary, scary! Anyway, hope you enjoyed that bit of awesomeness. If you didn't fuck you and die. Not really. So, be sure and check back off and on today. Sasha and I will be posting throughout so you wanna be sure and see what we got next. Until then, take care, stay a-scared, and have a very safe and Happy Halloween!

CANDY AIN'T THE ONLY THING TASTY HERE BY: SASHA SLAUGHTER

Happy Halloween creepes and creepettes! Thanks for stopping by Dead End Horror on this spooktacular 31st of October. Hope you enjoy what we've got in store for you! It's sure to make your skin crawl...or not. Either way, I promise you, it will more than likely be awesome! =) Today I'll be giving you a little taste of what I do best, and that's poetry my friends. I figured since it's Halloween I'd give you a few Halloween themed poems to sink your fangs into. So enough talk, let's get to it shall we?

 RAZORBLADE CANDY

His fingers tremble in anticipation as the time grows near,

he always gets incredibly excited during this time of year.

He makes his preparations,

he knows what he must do,

the insatiable lust for death to him is nothing new.

His room filled with horrors is where he will go,

getting ready for tonight,

well aware that his victims will never know.

He snaps on his rubber gloves and begins his quest,

poisoning the candy that will cause imminent death.

Razors and poison are his weapons of choice,

he can already hear them pleading in a small fragile voice.

The first child arrives in costume alone with no friends,

as he takes the mans candy,

he has no idea his life will soon end.

The man tells him to stay and talk a little more,

the child eats his candy and falls to the floor.

The man wastes no time as he drags the child inside,

he takes him down to basement,

where all of his victims he hides.

He checks the childs pulse to make sure that he's dead,

and moans in pure ecstasy as he begins to remove the little boys head.

WOW!! How messed up am I?? haha! Well, I guess now that you've read these, it gives you more insight into my warped mind =). Anyway, I hope that you liked them and that they got you into the Halloween mood! They certainly got me into it. Since you're here creeping on my weirdness, how about you stop by and see what Zane's got on the slab for Halloween. It's sure to be creepy!

THE ORIGIN OF HALLOWEEN BY: SASHA SLAUGHTER

Well hello there blog peepers and weirdo creepers! Thanks for stopping by and wasting some of your time with Dead End Horror. We certainly do appreciate it. And since Zane and I are continuing our Halloween theme all month long, today I'll actually be talking a little about the origin of Halloween. Sure you love Halloween...the candy, the costumes, the atmosphere. But do you really know how it came about? No? Well let me educate you!

Halloween is an annual holiday observed on October 31. It commonly includes activities such as trick or treating, parties, carving pumpkins, visiting haunted attractions and horror movies, among many other things. But do you actually know the origin of Halloween? How it got started, who started it? No? Well I'm going to tell you all that and more! It has been noted that Halloween may have possibly been linked to the Celtic festival Samhain. The name of the festival was historically kept by the Gaels and Celts in the British Isles and is is derived from Old Irish and means "Summer's End". Although, according to the Oxford Dictionary of English folklore it is said that "Samhain was a time for festive gatherings and Irish, Welsh and Scottish folklore use it as a setting for supernatural encounters, but there is no evidence that it was connected with the pre-dead in Christian times, or that pagan religious ceremonies were held". It is said that in Irish myths that the Samhain were written in the 10th and 11th centuries by Christian Monks, and this was around 200 years after the Catholic church inaugurated All Saints Day.

The word Halloween were first used in the 16th century and represents a Scottish variant of the fuller All Hallows-Even, which is the night before All Hallows Day. The development of the symbols and artifacts of Halloween slowly formed over time. For instance, carving jack-o'-lanterns comes from the souling custom of carving turnips into lanterns as a way of remembering the souls in purgatory. The turnip was traditionally used in in Ireland and Scotland during Halloween, but the immigrants to North America used their native pumpkin. The American tradition of pumpkin carving was first recorded in 1837 and was originally associated with harvest time in general, and didn't become specifically associated with Halloween until the late 19th century.

The imagery of Halloween has been derived from many sources over the years. This includes national customs, works of Gothic and horror literature (Such as the novels Frankenstein and Dracula) and classic horror films such as Frankenstein and The Mummy. Most Halloween imagery includes themes of death, evil, the occult, or mythical monsters. Black and orange are most often the holiday's traditional colors. Among the earliest works on the subject of Halloween is from the Scottish Poet John Mayne in 1780, who often made notes of pranks played during Halloween, as well as the supernatural associated with "Bogies" (Ghosts), which influenced Robert Burns' Halloween 1785. The elements of Fall, such as pumpkins, corn husks, and scarecrows are also prevalent. Most homes are often decorated with these symbols around Halloween time.

Ruth Edna Kelly, an American historian, wrote the fist lengthy book of the history of the holiday in the US. The book was called Hallowe'en (1919) and references the act of souling. In her book Kelly speaks of customs that had arrived across the Atlantic. While the first reference to "guising" in North America appears in 1911, another reference to the ritual appears at an unknown place in 1915 and later a third reference in Chicago in 1920.

Trick or treating is a main tradition during Halloween. Children (and some adults) go from house to house, asking for treats such as candy, usually with the question "Trick or treat?". The word trick refers to a mostly idle threat to do harmful mischief to a home owners property if no treat is given. In some parts of Scotland children go "guising" which means the child performs some sort of trick, such as telling a ghost story or singing a song to get their treat. The actual practice of dressing up in costumes and going door to door originated in the Middle Ages. Trick or treating resembles the late medieval practice of souling, in which the poor on Hallowmas (November 1st) would receive food in exchange for prayers for the dead on All Soul's Day (November 2nd). The practice of Guising at Halloween in North America is first recorded in 1911, where a newspaper in Ontario reported children "guising" around the neighborhood.

Halloween costumes are usually modeled after supernatural figures such as monsters, ghosts, skeletons, witches, and devils. Over time the costume selection extended into popular characters of fiction and celebrities, among many others. Dressing up in costumes and going "guising" was popular in Scotland at Halloween by the late 19th century. Costuming become popular for Halloween in the US in the early 20th century, just as often for adults as children. The first mass produced Halloween costumes appeared in stores in the 1930's when trick or treating started becoming more common in the United States.

There are several games and activities that are common tradition during Halloween. One common game is bobbing for apples, and a variant of bobbing for apples in which a person kneels on a chair, holding a fork between their teeth as they try to drop the fork into an apple. Other games played during Halloween are forms of divination. A traditional form of Scottish divining one's future spouse was to peel an apple into one long strip and toss the peel over one's shoulder. The peel was believed to land in the shape of the letter of one's future spouse. Unmarried woman were told to sit in a dark room and look into a mirror and the face of their future spouse would appear. If they were destined to die before they married a skull would appear in the mirror. The custom was widespread enough to be commemorated on greeting cards from the late 19th century to the early 20th century.

The telling of ghost stories and watching horror films are the most common things done during Halloween. Episodes of television series and Halloween themed specials are commonly aired on or before Halloween, while most horror related movies are released before the holiday as to take advantage of the atmosphere. Another popular part of Halloween is the visiting of haunted attractions. They are designed to thrill and scare the patrons that enter. Most of these are seasonal attractions, closing shortly after the Halloween holiday is over. The origins of these pay to be scared venues is unknown, but it is generally accepted that they were first commonly used by the Junior Chamber International for fundraising. They include haunted houses, hay rides, mazes and other scary form of entertainment. The level of sophistication of haunted attractions has risen over the years due to industry growing and the more technically advanced special effects, which can often be compared to that of a Hollywood movie. Haunted attractions in the US alone are said to generate an estimated $300-500 billion a year and draw 400,000 customers.

Because Halloween happens during the annual apple harvest, candy apples (known as toffee apples outside North America) caramel apples, or taffy apples are common Halloween treats made by rolling apples in a sticky sugar syrup, followed by sometimes rolling them in nuts. At one time candy apples were commonly given to children during Halloween, but the widespread practice rapidly declined when there were rumors of individuals embedding items like pins and razor blades in the apples. There is actual evidence of this happening, they are rare and have never resulted in serious injury. Many parents believed that such heinous practices were rampant because of the social media. At the peak of the hysteria, some hospitals offered free X-rays of children's Halloween candy in order to see if any of it had been tampered with. Virtually all of the few known candy poisoning cases involved parents who poisoned their own children's candy.

Halloween is not celebrated in all regions of the world, and among those that do celebrate, the traditions and importance of the celebration vary significantly. In Scotland and Ireland traditional Halloween customs include children "guising", and holding parties, while other practices in Ireland include bonfires and firework displays. Mass immigration popularized Halloween for North America in the 19th century, and celebration in the US and Canada had an impact on how the event is observed in other nations. The larger North American influence, mostly in iconic and commerical elements has extended as far as South America, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and parts of East Asia.

The religious perspectives of Halloween vary. The Christian attitude toward Halloween is diverse. In the Angelican Church, some of the dioceses have chosen to emphasize the Christian traditions of All Saint's Day, while some Protestants celebrate the holiday as a Reformation Day, a day to remember Protestant Reformation. Father Gabriele Amorth, a Vatican-appointed exorcist in Rome, has said "If English and American children like to dress up as witches and devils one night a year that is not a problem. If it is just a game, there is no harm in it".In more recent years, the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston has organized a "Saint Fest" on Halloween. Similarly, many Protestant church view Halloween as a fun event for children, holding events in their churches where children and their parents can dress up and get candy for free.

Many Christians give no negative significance to Halloween, treating is a Holiday that is devoted to imaginary spooks and handing out candy. To these Christians, Halloween holds no threat to the spiritual lives of children. In the Roman Catholic Church, Halloween is viewed as having a Christian connection, and Halloween celebrations are common in Catholic schools throughout North America and Ireland. Some Christians do feel concerned about Halloween and reject the holiday because they feel it celebrates paganism, the occult, and other practices and cultural phenomena that they believe are incompatible with their beliefs. A response from some fundamentalist and conservative evangelical churches in recent years have been the use of "Hell House" themed pamphlets created by Jack T. Chick in order to make use of Halloween's popularity as an opportunity for evangelism. And some Christians consider Halloween incompatible with their faith, believing it to have originated as a pagan "Festival of the Dead". Some Celtic NeoPagans consider Halloween to be a holy time of year.

MY 5 FAVORITE HALLOWEEN COSTUMES BY: SASHA SLAUGHTER

Well hi there heavy metal lovin, video game playin weirdos!! Just kidding! But you probably are weirdos =). Sasha Slaughter here with you for another week of pure entertainment at Dead End Horror. Halloween is rapidly approaching...can you feel it?? 6 days until Halloween to be exact. Are you excited? Sure you are because most of you that read this are probably freaks like Zane and I. I'm done with the small talk, let's get down to business. Today I'll be telling you about the favorite things I've been for Halloween. So let's get started.

1. LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD- Don't laugh! I was a child...like a really small child. No older than 3. I think. And the only reason I remember being little Red is because I found the costume in a box of stuff a while ago. It was a little red and white checkered dress with a red cape thing, and I'm almost sure I carried a little basket. But I was a kid, so I don't really remember. I would imagine I made a rather cute little Red, so I just had to throw this in here.

2. HIPPIE- Yes, I was a hippe for Halloween one year. I believe I was in the 6th grade. I had my hair in pigtails, I wore black bell bottoms and a tye dye shirt, a bunch of beads and I had peace signs drawn on my face in black eyeliner. I thought I was the absolute shit. I was 12, wtf did I know?? I have a picture of me somewhere in my little hippie get up. I'd also like to think I made a cute hippie too.

3. WITCH- Ahh yes, probably one of the most popular costumes out there. I couldn't tell you how many times I dressed up as a witch. Witch costumes are timeless and easy. Mine consisted of a cape, all black clothes, a black hat, green face paint, a huge fake nose with a mole on it and a little pink broom. How effing cute is that?? I found a picture of me in this costume the other day and I just had to put it on the list. I was probably around 8 or 9 when the picture was taken. My brother is standing in the pic next to me. He was dressed as the white Power Ranger. Ohh memories.

4. TAINTED FAIRY- Now, don't ask me what this is, because I'm not entirely sure. I was looking at Wal Mart for costume ideas and I stumbled upon this make up kit titled "Tainted Fairy". I was like ok, awesome...wtf is that?? So I bought the kit and improvised. I wore all black, a pair of red fairy wings, white face paint that came in the kit, fake eye lashes, dark eye make up, red lipstick, face tattoos that also came in the kit and finally a black wig. Woo!! I didn't really know if thats what tainted fairies were supposed to look like, but dammit I tried.

5. SHE DEVIL- RAWR!! This was my spur of the moment idea. An old friend and I decided to have themed costumes, so she was an angel and I was the she devil. The costume was pretty simple really. I wore all black clothes, a black and red wig *which was the most bad ass wig ever*, dark make up, red lipstick, black and red devil horns and to finish it all off, I carried around a black and red pitchfork. I'm a fucking genius! And I'm pretty sure the newspaper guy took our picture and it was in the next days paper.

How's that for a walk down memory lane?? Wooo!! And don't be shy! Speak up and leave comments and tell us about some of your favorite or most unique costumes!! We'd love to hear about them!
