Me and Gregory Grave, (Harvey Brunswick). We'll be keeping up the living and raising up the dead this Halloween. Paintin' this town red tonight.

Harvey aka Gregory Grave was a spook show host in the 60's around here. I remember him well.

Actually I'll be snoring in bed by the time the little ghouls get home tonight.

Oh, how cool!

Kelly usually decorates the house really nicely, both inside and out. But this year she has been really busy and didn't do it. And I don't have a bunch of extra time either so we're kinda "bah humbug" this year. Mixing holiday sayings, I know, but you get the idea.

Illuminati (5th Degree)

Since the kids left 20 years ago and the grand kids are now over the event we just do nothing. We used to do a really high tech haunted house. Animations, sounds, various scary things. One year I hid in the dark with a black cape and a huge plastic double ended axe that had a florescent painted red edge. I stood behind a partition and in front of the entry was a sign in florescent paint that said ring the doorbell on the wall. When someone did that I swung the axe in front of them. Kids loved it....parents ran for the hills. Very Happy

Great fun. We even gave out plastic spiders, snakes and scorpions that year. A real hoot.

Good Listening
Bruce

That sounds really cool!

I was never into Halloween that much, but Kelly certainly is. When we lived in Tulsa, some neighborhoods were really great, with many houses elaborately decorated and hundreds (or maybe thousands of kids) visiting all the houses, doing the trick-or-treat thing.

But in Bella Vista, where we live now, very few people decorate their homes. The kids all visit the local churches and a few businesses to do a thing they call "trunk-or-treat." This tradition started with parking lots used as venues with cars as "stalls." Lots of cars in the parking lot with costumed families staffing them, each with treats in the trunk. Eventually, the cars were traded for tables and booths, and some businesses and churches have added activities and small rides.
