I love this time of year. My daughter was due on Halloween but was born on November 2.
Last year I was Anakin (see below).
Inspired by the duet at the Superdome, this year, I'll be a New Orleans Saint. (Not a football player, mind you, you'll see . . . )
Please all, post your Halloween pics in this thread.
Here's a Halloween quote:
"In late October, or Ancestor Moon as some liked to call it,
Black Dragon House became a shrine to the dead.
Over the years Halloween, now called by its original Celtic name of Samhain, has
merged with the Mexican Day of the Dead, El Dia de los Muertos,
celebrated on November 2.
Now the holiday season extended for weeks. Families set up altars in memory of
loved ones. Children sucked on sugar skulls and played with toy skeletons.
Dancers, musicians, and artists prepared the most elaborate pagan rituals of the year,
while the sisters next door celebrated masses for All Souls and All Saints.
On the final night, half the city turned out in skeleton masks
to parade through the streets. . . ."
