So how's everyone's Halloween going? Have you done/are doing anything?

Mine's fine so far. Greeted about 10 trick or treaters so far and am going to a party later.

How about you? What did you dress up as?

Its a Thursday so I'm just sitting at home watching the Overwatch World Cup. Didn't buy candy to hand out either so the porch lights are off.

Going to a Halloween party on Saturday though.

I'm not doing anything, and by the looks of it, we aren't fixing to get many 'treaters.

Watched my son while my wife worked, but I put on Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride soundtracks while we played. Watched Frankenweenie and the South Park halloween special while he napped. Handed out a bit of candy but not too much since we had to eat dinner. It's shitty out so we didn't take my son trick or treating. He did that Sunday.

I'm going to the symphony. Not very spooky but I suppose there's always a chance audience members will show up in costume.

Watching the prince of darkness by John carpenter. Alice cooper's in it which is funny. No one lives in my neighborhood year round so no trick or treaters unfortunately. Gave out candy to customers at work though.

I forgot to buy candy, but no kids yet. Parents, if kids show up, can I just give them individually sealed fruit snacks instead or will people think I stuck LSD-coated razorblades in them or something? It's all I've got in the house right now.

Had about six families come to our door. It's a new building. The latest one had a kid dressed as Marshmello. My wife had no clue, I only recognised the helmet.

Watching Giant Bomb videos, and then maybe Evil Dead 2 later. I was going to go out to a movie (Parasite or The Lighthouse) but it's kind of cold, so fuck it.

I just finished lesson plans for next week, made a spelling test for tomorrow, cleaned up my classroom, and caught up on grading. It's 8:30, time to go home and watch a horror movie or two.

I'm watching the Wire (season 3) for the first time while handing out candy to the kids. None have come so far and this season of the Wire has been pretty meh, IMO.

We handed out candy. Had a pretty good turnout even though it's the coldest and windiest Halloween I can remember. Still have some leftovers for later. Ate some Milk Duds and Swedish Fish.

All costumed up and giving out candy for the first time in my own home. When my wife gets home we'll watch Trick r Treat and have a couple glasses of wine. Feels good.

Am I only supposed to give them a fistful of candy per kid?

Nothing this year. Sitting around watching spooky movies, handing out candy

Done absolutely nothing for it. No kids ever come by so I never give out candy and I don't bother dressing up so I've just been browsing the internet for most of the night.

Cobbled together a last second costume for work that went over better than it had any right to, and rounding out the night with pumpkin flavored beer and horror movies. So not bad for a Thursday Halloween

Watching Overwatch World Cup. I'm out Ā£135 because my phone's fucked so I'm trying to save money, meaning staying in the house and not going out.

It's 2am here now and I'm on the final leg of this year's Halloween Horrorfest movie marathon. Remakes is the theme and so far Invasion of the Bodysnatchers, The Thing, Pet Sematary and The Blob are down with just House of Wax (Vincent Price version not the Paris Hilton one) to go. I don't have work tomorrow so I can just have a long lie in. šŸŽƒ

If it's remake night you are obligated to watch Paris Hilton House of Wax!
