i'm planning on kicking off the unHoly Day at dawn, driving around neighborhoods in costume. Then, as the sun retreats and night divides the days, i'll stalk the mortal pedestrian beggers on foot, lurking in the shadows between houses, behind trees, waiting...



What will YOU be doing? Will you hide in your home, relying on a carved pumpkin to ward off the evil spirits, or will you be joining those on the dark side as we torment the faint of heart?

I'll be having a traditional "hobo holiday." I'll stay warm with a cup of coffee (decaffeinated of course) and drive around to see what the local churches are doing. Sometimes churches have some fun activities on the 31st which they call Harvest Fest.

Several years ago a local church had the Monster Cool Bus, a school bus converted into a monster truck . . . the vehicle to have when off-roading with a large group.

I usually make a stew with leftovers - last year's trick or treaters pulled from the freezer, thawed, served to the community. Holidays are a good time to rotate your stockpile, and those kiddies have been in the freezer for exactly one year now. eek

I intend to scaryface 3 pumpkins at dawn.
It is an ancient pagan tradition from before the time prehistory was ever recorded.

Most likely in the early morning hours I'll play video games for a little while and then go to bed. Then I plan on sleeping in for a little bit and then I'm going to a Halloween party my buddy from the factory is having. Several people are going as vampires so I got some stuff together and I'm dressing up as Van Helsing...

Well, the most hardcore trick-or-treaters I can think of are in Churchill, Manitoba.

Dodging polar bears for a bit of candy. That's hardcore.
