Canada celebrates it. UK and Australia has parties but I don't know about trick or treating. I think outside of British cultures no one gives a shit lol.

Where is that? Is there a cover charge? I work in Durham on Alexander Dr between Page Rd and Miami Blvd.

Got a lot of compliments on both my House costume, and the people who didn't get it were all "damn dude you dressed sharp"

10/30/2011 12:59:43 PM

All I see listed is that Alivias Bistro is having a Halloween Bash on 10-27-2011.

10/30/2011 1:05:12 PM

It's at the intersect of Gregson and west main

That site is wrong we didn't have an event on Thursday other than a bday party that's odd but we are definitely having a party Monday

10/30/2011 1:38:12 PM

Cool!

quick question:

The headpiece that came with my costume for discolored. The top part is blood red showing where "the head" was cut off. That is surrounded by a white collar. The white collar got some blue on it. I don't know how that happened.



I put some fake blood on it to cover it but not too good. Any suggestions? white paint? more blood?

I don't think I'll be dressing up this year.

10/30/2011 10:50:14 PM

Me neither. My day tomorrow is so fucking busy I am going to be ready to come home and get in the bed

10/30/2011 10:51:47 PM

Jaybee1200 is winning so far imo

nice job bro, great idea

10/30/2011 11:00:22 PM

Soooo all of the people we have met down here did not bring a Halloween costume......but there is a Halloween costume contest....



I'm thinking we are likely to win

10/31/2011 12:09:00 AM

^That happened to me at Rum Runners on Thursday, 2 years ago. My sister and me dressed up and no other customers did, so they gave both of us a $15 gift certificate.

10/31/2011 12:14:34 AM

So what's going on tomorrow night? I have to imagine being a Monday, downtown Raleigh won't be what it was Saturday night...does that leave Hillsborough St.?

Haven't been out on Hillsborough St. in a while - what are the bars to hit? Is there still a small dance club on the second level across from the library?

10/31/2011 12:26:21 AM

^If you live/work in Durham, it sounds like there is a Halloween party at Alivia's that BigHitSunday is working.

I love how mine came together. and ya lots of black swans but mine got a lot of compliments b/c it was one of a kind.

^ I love the hot air balloon.

10/31/2011 12:20:23 PM

I own that Free Hat Limit 1 hat as part of my every day wardrobe


this year I dressed (am dressing?) as a time traveling space Confederate
its a steampunked out Confederate soldiers costume with a laser gun

10/31/2011 12:41:42 PM

^^ How was yours one of a kind?

10/31/2011 12:55:49 PM

I made the whole thing except the corset which i then changed b/c it was just a reg. black corset. I made the crown etc.

10/31/2011 1:04:41 PM

i bet i saw at least a dozen or so black swans
pretty much all of them sucked

except for the one big girl ... that was pretty funny

10/31/2011 1:12:10 PM

I don't think there's a standard "Black Swan" costume...so I'm still not following why yours was one of a kind. Unless you're saying they were all one of a kind?

10/31/2011 1:47:15 PM

@jaybee, I was Lady Adventurer!

(Action shot, excuse the silly face.)

I also made my boyfriend a Max costume from Where the Wild Things Are.

Another action shot!

10/31/2011 2:51:21 PM

Is Black Swan a thing this year that I'm unaware of?

10/31/2011 2:52:48 PM

^^omg that's so cute!!

^I think cause the movie came out earlier this year, I still have to see it.

10/31/2011 2:53:39 PM

lol I didn't even know there was a movie this year.

10/31/2011 2:57:01 PM

@frugal_qualm

ABS Love your costume and they fact that you made it all too!!!

I saw one steam punker and he was trilled that I knew what steam punk is lol.

[Edited on October 31, 2011 at 3:02 PM. Reason : ^ It came out in nov or dec of last year. pretty crazy movie. i recommend it.]

10/31/2011 3:01:18 PM

she should have called herself zelda.

10/31/2011 3:10:41 PM

That's not what Zelda looks like.

10/31/2011 3:13:52 PM

^^ You mean Link? Zelda was the Princess... I was Link last year (no pics though ) and its nothing like this one!

^^^ Thanks, Lady! You look fabulous, too! More girls should realize that sexy does not equal slutty.

[Edited on October 31, 2011 at 3:34 PM. Reason : ]

10/31/2011 3:33:35 PM

Well its funny b/c the more unique costumes i feel get more attention then the slutty ones. and how funny I was thinking about being link this year but then didn't have time to do it right. I wanna see the link costume!

10/31/2011 3:40:45 PM

i just want a mask or somethin i dont feel like dressing up

10/31/2011 3:42:35 PM

Heidi Klum's keeps getting crazier and crazier!

10/31/2011 3:50:00 PM

I think the robot from last year or the Indian god were more impressive.

10/31/2011 3:51:36 PM

10/31/2011 3:51:43 PM

I like your devil horns.

10/31/2011 3:53:36 PM

For those earlier in this page that were curious, they do celebrate Halloween in similar manners in England (not sure about the rest of Europe) in terms of dressing up for parties as adults and going trick or treating for kids.

10/31/2011 5:37:13 PM

No trick or treaters so far

10/31/2011 5:39:04 PM

Hopefully the rain will stop soon.
