I’m a going as a social butterfly. I got a cute rainbow monarch wing cape thing at the renfair and I am going to print social media logos and tape them to a shirt. It’s cheap, cute, and funny lol.

    Amish. I have a big beard and moustache, but I’m having nasal surgery on the 5th of November, and I have to shave the 'stache, so why not use it for Halloween?

    I’ve been working on my costume for about two months now, and it’s about 2/3rds done. I haven’t quantified total expenditures yet but I’d estimate it’s over $700 in materials and supplies.

    Yes, it’s a fursuit (bird suit partial).

    If I leave the house, I’ve been basically dressing as a witch for years at this point. Somewhere in my closet is a witch hate and a no longer scented cinnamon broom. Think my crafted potion bottle necklace is somewhere.

    All my costume requires is me to find the miscellaneous things, some dark clothes, and boots. I never plan to do anything but sometimes I get invited. And some of those times I even show up.

    Last Halloween I went to a karaoke night dressed as The Mask and learned the hard way that using oil-based face paints without a setting powder or spray is a bad idea because that doesn’t dry. Won’t be repeating the same mistake this year.

    This year? I’m actually going to another city to celebrate my friend’s birthday, but I plan to go to a karaoke night the day before dressed as Danhausen.

    Where I’m from we don’t celebrate Halloween. They (retailers) tried really hard, but it was not a thing. So now the shops are already full of X-Mas things…

    But I went to a con as Logan from X-Man last week, if that counts as dress up.

    I’ll be going as a tired old fart watching TV and handing out candy.

    Same costume I wear every year.

    Some costume I wear every night, except for the candy.

    I put a wig on, and I’m Alan from the Hangover. I like to wear that costume and stop by my usual haunts/hang out until people realize it’s me.
