What is your favorite thing about Halloween?

[Tiptoetamm]

I enjoy sitting down to watch horror movies and eating candy. I'm a horror movie buff, the best movies come out around Halloween. Also enjoy passing out candy to the kiddos. Seeing what they dressed up as. Some of them have really cool costumes. What do y'all like about Halloween?

[Andres77]

I’m more a fan of fall. I certainly take advantage of the availability of candies that were around when I was a kid. Nostalgic. Horror movies make me angry. The occasional costume party is fun. Creative costumes, especially the homemade ones.

we had a gangster themed party a few years ago. One daughter and my ex-wife dressed up as flapper girls. My older daughter was still really young, and she dressed up like a gangster with 5 o’clock shadow, wearing a suit and a hat. I cut some cardboard into the shape of a violin, painted it black and put a handle on it. I went as a corrupt judge, so I was wearing my glasses and a robe, and I had a gavel and some money sticking out of my pocket.
The problem with my costume was I had a round glasses, so everybody thought that I was dressed up as Harry Potter…🤦

[Tiptoetamm]

That's awesome. And that's kinda funny

[Andres77]

It’s funny now. But I thought I had put some originality into my costume, but everybody was calling me Harry Potter. Now it’s hilarious.

[Tiptoetamm]

Yeah that sucks. But at least you can laugh about it now

[FunkyMonkee]

All that. I usually watch the movie or at least listen to radio show of, "War Of The Worlds" and watch the two Dr. Phibes movies and maybe, "Halloween III". I like handing out candy to the kids and then going up to the boro building where my neighbor dresses like Elvis Presley and plays Halloween records and others for the kids to dance to and parade around for the costume contests. But, where I am, now, I'm lucky if I get 3 to 5 kids and the boro building is almost 2 miles away and I very seriously doubt they've got anything going on!
Being completely alone doesn't help, either.

[Tiptoetamm]

Yeah that sucks I'm sorry

[FunkyMonkee]

It does! Thanks!
Where I am now is up on a hill in a plan where there's only about 50 houses and not many kids are gonna hump a fairly steep hill just for a little candy, and there's not very many that live here. It's mostly older people.

I love to see how cute the kids are in their costumes! But we have not had a single trick or treater in years cause there are criminals who live near by. When I first moved into this house, we did have trick or treaters and it was amazing to hear their cute voices and see their cute costumes and talk to them before giving them chips.

[ShesRad80]

the victims mwahahahaahha

oh by that i mean the unsuspecting delicious candy about to get eaten.

but also the costumes, especially the diy ones

the atmosphere, the decorations, the movies, Halloween is my Christmas

[Tiptoetamm]

Yes girl Halloween is my favorite holiday hehe. Totally agree

[ShesRad80]

NICE! ✌😎💕

[Bricealan]

Well, I keep that Calderon of boiling oil on the roof over the door, to dump on 'evil doers' if they damage pumpkins !!!

[Bricealan]

The little kid are really great.

[Tiptoetamm]

Yeah

[clampfan101]

Trying not to think too much about candy, I also like the Fall atmosphere and fun costumes. I personally haven’t been in a costume since I was little, but cosplaying looks very fun. (Though expensive…)

[Tiptoetamm]

True that

[clampfan101]

I hate the “we charge this much money because we know we can get away with it” principle. Unfortunately, it very much works.

[Tiptoetamm]

Yeah it's bullshit

[Alex8736]

Personally I love the day after where my favorite Halloween candy is 1/2 price and luckily when it comes to genetics and always being active I can splurge eating Reese's cups and Haribo gummy bears like there is no tomorrow and I end up losing weight due to a healthy metabolism 😁

[Wise4myage]

I like the homemade costumes that people put a lot of thought into.

[Tiptoetamm]

Oh yeah that's super awesome homemade ones are always the best

[DryGermanGuy]

Culturally it’s not a thing here. But like you I like horror movies and the TV stations often do specials with older and newer horror films. 🫣

[Den1971]

Being scared, movies... Halloween, Chucky, Friday the 13th,

[Den1971]

Even though now we watch those movies and it looks like they were made in a garage with a cell phone but they're still kind of scary for Halloween 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Tiptoetamm]

Bahaha I know right! But somehow the classics are somehow better than some of the movies they releases now.

[Den1971]

I don't even watch like any new releases like I watched The originals of everything like The Omen Amityville horror the original Friday the 13th I don't watch any sequels to any of those because that's when they started kind of getting stupid

[Den1971]

Some of the real stupid but perfect Halloween movie The toxic avenger and also the Texas chainsaw massacre I laugh at him now because they look so fake but they're still good ones for Halloween

[Tiptoetamm]

Yeah I do watch em. I like the rob zombie movies be does I'm waiting to see insidious the red door I've been waiting for it

[Den1971]

I may have to tune in on that too I know we're in different time zones but let me know if you find out when it's supposed to be on

[Tiptoetamm]

Okey-dokey

[Den1971]

🔥🔥🌹

[Paris13]

Pumkkins and Smell of Fall Leaves. When I had Lived Upstate], NY. xxoo

[MrOracle]

I usually dress up, and I am usually DJing a Halloween party. Sometimes it's an adults-only Halloween party. Those are extra fun.

[TonyMetal___86]

I'm coming to your house miss tammy this Halloween so i receive delicious candies 😋

[Tiptoetamm]

Oh really

[TonyMetal___86]

🤣🤣

[lilBigPotato]

I'm not much into horror movies and Halloween isn't a big thing here to begin with but I like to go out to a party with friends and dress up

[exitseven]

I see my neighbors that I maybe have not spoken to since last Halloween. Also we usually have leftover candy

[dolemite58]

i try to watch a different horror movie every night in October, Halloween is just too fun.

[Tiptoetamm]

Ikr hehe it's awesome

[Guido]

Halloween was fun when my kids were little and I would take them out trick or treating. But now it is more stressful as my dogs do not like all the people coming to the door.

[Anonymous]

all the dust in the air from the farmers harvesting the crops all night long. It's so great for my asthma. 😷 And the witches coming out to do their rituals and ceremonies. That's always a good time.

[kellytheman]

Yeah I honestly like handing out candy and maybe have some myself lol and maybe watch some old Halloween movies with a girl

[krin_m]

We typically go to some Halloween party and see some cool costumes and have good food!

[darkforcebooty]
