any good "tricks" you played on people? best places to trick or treat? favorite candy? favorite costumes?

We'll be playing our homecoming game on Halloween this year......with a playoff berth on the line, we should have a great crowd......

I used to make myself sick off of candy corn.

My favorite Halloween activity was working for Jaycee's Haunted House in Texarkana. All the money went to charity.

For me personally, back in the day of course, I used this day as an excuse to take heroic amounts of mushrooms and party with friends.

Grown up now and looking back I realize my foolishness.

I quit celebrating 27 years ago. I liked it as a kid, but it has no meaning to me anymore. Went to STP last year, and going to see Tantric this year.

By the way the only time a kid was given poisoned candy was by his father in Houston, TX. The rumours about the kids being kidnapped is a lie, and the blue star acid tatoos were also a hoax.

LOL! A fellow candy corn-aholic! Did you ever eat the pumpkins, too?

Then I got started on those darned marshmellow peeps... criminey!

put peeps in the microwave

When I was growing up (around halloween time) our hay barn was burnt down and inside was a dead body with some satanic stuff around the barn. So halloween has always had a distinct mark of evil around it.

Say what???? come on man youre kiddin right?

^ nope

We've always done the church festivals since we've had kids. It's amazing how many people will come out of the woodworks just for candy and a cold "hot dog".

freaky!

yeah thats definitely some mmichael meyers tpye stuff yall got going on over there. too evil for me to begin to comprehend.

Thats pretty wild! Its nothing special to me just another day of work.

I love Halloween. Candy, fun, haunted houses, skimpy costumes for ladies........what's not to like?

apperently jv coaches barn...?

full story - full story - don't leave us like this

^ I Agree.

Scary stuff here, especially second pic

Just gives another reason to buy abunch of candy.. and then sit on my front porch watching teenagers way old to 'trick or treat' walk by.

LOL!

When I was a kid, every year, the church would put on a haunted house...one year I specifically remember... they had you blind-folded all the way through...creepy things grabbing ya and brushing up against ya and putting your hands in stuff... and finally I heard my mom "cackle"... MOM, THAT'S YOU, RIGHT? She cackled again and I heard a whisper... yes, but shhhh, don't tell anybody! LOL!

Fond days, those...

My favorite halloween... is taking the young'uns to a haunted house... now as most of you know, I've got boys... the only thing they're deathly afraid of is spiders - go figure!

So Gilmer has a haunted house. I guess the boys were in junior high. Well, that youngest will not UNDER any circumstances go in without me... okay, fine... as soon as we start to go in, youngest high tails out the door...oldest is in the lead, Mr. Testerone himself, and loves scarey movies, etc...

Well, everything's fine, course the other boys are about to choke me to death and break my hand... and we walk into an absolutely dark room...oldest in the lead, of course... and all of a sudden, you hear somebody cranking up a chainsaw... my Lord, that child danged near came over the top of me trying to get out of there, and I was laughing so hard, I couldn't move, and course the boys behind me just left... just literally left...I've never laughed so hard in my life!

Course when we left, oldest says, MOM, I SWEAR, YOU KNOW HOW YOU SMELL A CHAINSAW, AND YOU FEEL THIS AIR COMING OUT OF THE BACK OF IT... yeah... WELL, I SWEAR TO YOU IT WAS A CHAINSAW! LOL! Course he's telling the story to his brother who's all wild-eyed swearing he'll never go in a haunted house - EVER! LOL!

I'm sorry, but there's just nothing better than watching a ton of testerone being scared... LOL!

I'm using the occasion this year to distribute business cards promoting http://freedomadvocates.org and the Freedom21 conferences to adults that accompany their children while trick or treating. I'll sit in the front yard and distribute candy to the kids while handing out cards I made in an attempt to get people to visit the site and possibly watch the vids in hopes that more people will come to understand and become familiar with U.N. Agenda21. IMO people need to understand the influence this agenda has had on our educational process and the dumbing down of our country. I've got literature about cap and trade I'll be handing out as well.

My wife will likely dress up as a gypsy as she enjoys the looks on young children's faces in their reaction to her costume. My costume is natural as all I have to do is remove the dentures to scare most kids.

GREAT IDEA! Might want to throw some voter registration cards in there, and some info on the Amendment vote, and the governor race.

see that is a very good idea. a little political "carpet bombing"
