Ya know an awesome idea for decoration would be to have one of those bowls that says "Take 1 per person" and have a little camera hooked up so you can see the bowl, and if anyone takes more than one then the lights go off and thunder noises start and then there's fog and you swipe down from god knows where and freak them out somehow telling them that you should have only taken one and that since they betrayed your trust, they shouldn't get any candy and take their whole bag and run off into the sky laughing. That would create some mixed emotions for people.
One of my neighbors as a kid wore a scarecrow costume while holding a bowl of candy. He didn't look real so when kids would grab for candy he'd go BOOOO! That's what people should do to those kids
I've thought of doing that before. Once my grandmother dressed up as a scare crow so well that people thought she was just a decoration. Then some teen angers came over and one of them said," let's rip up the scare crow" so when they got closer to her she jumped up and shouted at them and they got so created out and ran away.
I stopped "trick-or-treating" when I was 12 or 13 I think, after that I just gave out candy every year, and I love seeing the smiles on the kids faces. I'm 22 now, and this year I'm going to a retirement home where lots of kids like to visit every Halloween and help them pass out candy to the kids.. Not as many kids around my neighborhood the past few years thanks to downtown and the neighboring cities.
I had a house in my neighborhood that gave out full size candy bars plus drinks and chips. It was this sweet old couple they had this huge house. You could just see the joy in their faces from giving out stuff and seeing all the kids in their costumes.
I had a neighbor who would put out the bowl of candy and the "take 1 sign" and then dress up as a scare crow on the porch. I was an honest kid so I always took 1 but my brother not so much. My brother would look at the windows and the driveway to make sure they're not home and then take the whole bowl. Well this time he finally learned his lesson. He took the whole bowl and the scarecrow jumped up, shook him by the shoulders,and yelled "DONT YOU KNOW HOW TO READ!" in the scariest voice possible. My brother sprinted down the street back into our house and didn't come back out for the rest of the night. Now he only takes one.
7:45 "I think they might be Wiccan or something." I don't care if that's not an accurate representation of Wiccans, I'm just happy to finally get some recognition xD
Halloween decorations are not stupid if the strand lights are red, because then after Halloween you just put up green lights and your ready for christmas.
Brendan E. You're correct. The only reason shepherds would be out at night is because it would have been mating season, which is the spring. The reason Christmas was moved was because the early Christians at the time were being persecuted, so they disguised it on the same day as a pagan holiday to avoid being detected.
KPTree That must vary from culture to culture. The reason its the 24th/25th here in scandinavia is because the vikings already had a holiday on almost the same day, and since the christian king was forcibly converting everyone, they thought they'd help the process along by attributing the holiday to the christian god. This resulting in some pretty interseting mixes of mythologies, where vikings would believe in THor, Odin and the christian god at the same time.
Link is one of those people that without the policing of his actions by his family would probably hand out cheap cans of expired cat food for Halloween... and thats what i like about him.
There is this one house I went to once while trick or treating where I turned around at the door and left without getting candy, because the guy wanted kids to go inside his house to get the candy. Like he made his living room a haunted house. Screw that. Not going into a strangers house.
Halloween is like a pre-Christmas in my family. I LOVE decorating the inside of my house, although I'm not crazy about decorating the outside. A Halloween wreath on the door and a couple pumpkins on the stoop are enough for me; however, I do appreciate the effort it takes for those who do elaborate decorations on their houses and in their yards, and I enjoy viewing them for my own pleasure :) I don't see the harm in it. It's fun and entertaining, and the kids usually enjoy it. I'm happy I live in a place where Halloween is enjoyed and displayed proudly :)
I like seeing Rhett struggling not to insult his neighbor, lol, you can tell he really didn't think about what he was going to say before he started talking.
I am not only left handed. But was born Oct 31'st 1985. If i had been born 100 year's earlier. burned at the stake for being a witch. Whew.. dodged that bullet.
They didn't burn people for witchcraft in 1885. And they would have just beat the left handedness out of you. They did that to my grandmother in the 30s and she's ambidextrous because of it. Im a lefty too! As far as american witches go, they were all executed by hanging. The house i live in sits on the land of the Martin farm. Susannah Martin was one of them and owned the land I live on now. She basically was a widow with money and people wanted it. Here's the breakdown of the Salem Witches in 1692: 19 were convicted and executed. 5 of them were men. 1 was convicted and died in prison 1 was convicted and escaped 3 pled not guilty and were pardoned and 1 pled guilty of being a witch and was pardoned! Giles Corey was crushed to death with rocks because he refused to enter a plea because it was nonsense. Tituba, the famous west indian slave never was indicted. This shows the motivations of the courts... Her religious practices would probably have been considered most akin to witchcraft at the time, but she was a slave who owned nothing so she never was tried.
I love Halloween personally because everything is spooky scary, I take my brother out trick-or-treating and get a ton of candy (we live in a large neighborhood so we split the bag and we're set for weeks), and it gives everyone a reason to get dressed up in rad costumes. I go to this annual costume contest almost every year, and there are some AMAZING get-ups that people do. You can see people with prosthetics, styled and set wigs, really good makeup, and dressed right to the toes.
Make the tape look like a worm, and go up to someone and say: Trick or- then start gagging- and say Oh hey Billy! Then tell the confused person: Sorry i'm on the Tapeworm Diet!
When I was six or so my dad showed me how to paper mache a skull for Halloween and we propped it up outside with a robe around it - I was incredibly proud of it at the time and apparently it was pretty convincing. I was, however, quite disappointed when we had to take it down later that evening because it made another kid cry.
My friend Rosie has an uncle who goes all out on Halloween. He covers his entire front lawn with screaming graves, ghosts and robotic vampires ect. She says you can hear it all from about 5 streets away lol
I put that little bowl of candy out one year only to have it taken. The next year I gave those little kids a lesson and covered a bowl of rocks with a thin layer of candy. When they dumped it in their bag they got a trick and a treat!
There's this house near mine and the front yard has tons of fake people in scary costumes. There's probably at least 100 but it's crazy, there are "people" hanging from the tree, people on the porch, people standing. It's crazy and I've seen so many people stop to take photos of it cause it's so extravagant.
If you are ever in the Memphis area on Halloween, come to Domino Cove in Arlington. The whole cove is decorated for Halloween, with ghosts zooming from house to house, animatronic ghouls and witches, etc. So much fun!
I have some friends that take decorating for halloween very seriously! They start in like mid August and go all out. Spiders hanging from the trees, gravestones and zombies coming up from the ground, a scream sound when someone steps on the porch, everything. Last year they made a life size model of the headless horseman and put it in the middle of their yard! Their house now makes the newspaper because it's so impressive.
a house near me decorates their whole yard with skeletons and tombstones and skeletalhorses and yada yada in october, then leave it up after halloween and just put santa hats on all the skeletons through the new year lol
I always try to be nice and just take one. I also know about the dead end thing. Last year we got 2 trick or treaters in a neighborhood where almost every family has kids.
Our neighbours, last year, painted their house completely black (minus the minor dark wood trimming). After Halloween, we thought they'd paint their ludicrous project back; but no. Through the harsh winter, and finally into spring, they still haven't done it. They're keeping it solid black.
I think after the first year, Link, one of your neighbors decided they didn't need to buy candy to hand out anymore and just takes yours after you leave :P
Link left a bowl that says, "take one." Link leaves, but forgets something, so he walk back. He sees that the candy bowl is empty. Looks like Nicholas Cage is rebooting Gone in Sixty Seconds: Halloween candy edition.
My neighbor always decorates his front yard with giant blow up pumpkins and things hanging from the trees and such... yet, nobody ever comes to the houses on my street haha.
I live in Massachusetts and I have gone to Salem MA Halloween. The whole city is a big party. They literally close the streets down and it's like mardi gras for us. Decorations everywhere, witches, haunted tours etc. Nearby, Keene NH has the pumpkin festival too, where they put out 20 to 30 THOUSAND pumpkins in the town. Halloween in New England rocks!
Halloween = Samhain (Celtic pagan); Christmas = Yule (Norse/Viking pagan); Easter = Easter (Germanic pagan); Thanksgiving is probably the only nonpagan major holiday we celebrate in America.
I remember back in the 90s almost every house was decorated, nowadays it's so rare around here! But then again we always try to decorate our home and people end up ruining or stealing the decorations -___- so I'll just stick to decorating my room, because yes I have my room decorated for halloween all year round haha
lol at the "PAAAGAN!" bit. I actually am Pagan/Wiccan, and celebrate Halloween as well as Samhain. Ironically, I think Samhain is less spooky than secular Halloween, because there's no dressing up as axe murderers or decorations of bloody corpses. O.o
Last year on Halloween, I went to a house with the please take one sign, and I was grabbing one for me, and one for each of my brothers. Then, out of nowhere, an old lady comes out of the house and yells,"IT SAYS ONE!!!!" Then she threw her cat at me.
I remember Halloween five years ago, I left the bowl of candy outside my door. I was going to pick up my kids' the babysitter's. So I left a note on the bowl for people to help themselves. Epic fail on my part...because when I came back the candy was pretty much gone LOLL!
There's a house like Rhett's neighbor, in my town. They, however, decorate for EVERY holiday so heavily that it's sometimes hard to see the lawn. We call them "The Griswolds".
Ok so in my neighborhood this one guy had a full haunted trail with a guys (about 50) dressed as zombies chasing you with one guy who jumps in front of you with a chainsaws and gives away king size candy bars no joke
I live in the countryside in Ireland so we get nobody coming to our house on Halloween. I wish we had trick or treaters here... the costumes are hilarious on some kids! The worst situation when we were kids & trick or treating was getting PEANUTS or ORANGES in our bags. Now that I've grown up, I wanted to relive that again and tried to find peanuts (in the shell) in the supermarket and it seems that people don't buy them anymore? what?? It's just all sweets now. :(
I have lived in many different places around the world so it is odd when some holidays aren't really celebrated like they were where I grew up. :/ Like no Thanksgiving. I grew up having food, friends, and family with me on that day but if I'm not in the U.S. there is no Thanksgiving. Sorry to hear you have no trick or treaters.
Here, in Croatia we have carnivals throughout the whole year, in different cities ...but mostly in February. So we dress up whenever there's some masquerade. But most important there are wonderful events in the summer...so we can regulate the clothes depending on weather. It's fun! :)
Theres a house around my neighbourhood, where they take Halloween seriously. They have people dressed up in creepy costumes, and people dressed in black that hide then jump out and scare you. Every year they have a theme, one year it was clowns. That is the reason why I hate clowns.
On Halloween, me and my friends trick or treat then we go back to the place we are partying at and take the candies we don't like, trade, and take the rest that we put out into a bowl and serve the candy.
My family (well.. my mum really) goes so overboard at every single holiday that we get people driving for sometimes 30 minutes just to see the front of our house because word has gotten around about the crazy family in Sherwood!
There's someone at the estate around half a mile away, who has christmas decorations up for halloween. Another person - well, two or three people - did a ghost and scarcrow jumpscare thing a coupla years back.
There are some people that spend a lot of time and money on Halloween decorations here in Raleigh, NC. There is one guy in downtown Raleigh that has about 20-30 animatronics and statues in his yard, and he is still putting them up.
I don't understand people who won't celebrate a Holiday because of how it started, it doesn't matter how it started what matters is how it is now, Halloween today is just a time to dress up and get candy and possibly get scared for fun
When my boys were kids I'd decorate and give out candy. But now, I live in a gated community, no kids come, so no candy giving. But at work before I had to retire due to injuries, I'd set a bowl out with different candies and a sign on my desk. I'd have to refill it often. Even the Associate Director would stop by to ask how my surgeries were going and eat a couple pieces lol
Their stance on Halloween just dropped them down a notch in my opinion. It really is the best holiday if you think about it. Christmas is mostly for children. Thanksgiving is for adults. Eastern of kids. New Years is for adults. Halloween though is for everyone. Trick or treating for kids and awesome costume parties for adults. Getting scared and scaring others. Not to mention messing with kids and pranking neighbors.
Halloween is my favorite holiday because it's in my favorite season of the year, I love going to haunted houses, scary stuff is the best, I get to dress up, there's hay rides and bonfires, and i get candy so idk I just love it.
Totally agree with Rhett's theory on Halloween even though I'm a Christian. Still hate all the other super festive holidays aside from Thanksgiving of course.
It's the best holiday cause it's a non denominational holiday and allows you to be something your not, to step out side the box and express yourself how ever you want. and no costume is a bad costume, any costume is an amazing costume Link. So act a fool and be Mythical, you guys of all people should have Mythical Fun with this one.
Im in the bible belt in oklahoma, and there is hardly any houses lacking in halloween decor, halloween is very big around here, with haunted houses, decorated yards, there's even one house by me that has a herst decked out with a coffin and everything. I love halloween, even though I'm 30 I still dress up and take my kids out trick or treating, and I like being more creative every year with creepier and creepier costumes.
I know my favorite thing is that you pick who you are spending it with as an adult. It's not like you are forced to hang out with weird uncle Larry.. You spend it with friends mostly.
Rhett , bro , buddy , pal ...... "Oh yeah baby , give it to me , I want it soooo bad" in that tone of voice & that facial expression , kinda creepy man lol !
We are the household who never take down Halloween decorations and don't decorate for any other holiday. In a town of less than 100 people, we tend to stick out and get left alone.
You guys should take your families around the larchmont area. Around 3rd st. I used to live there and people make haunted houses. Some even hire people to dress up and scare you. It gets crazier than you think.
I know a house that gave out king sized candy bars. I know them still they were nice and had a lot of decorations. I moved but I have a friend in that neighborhood and still say hi to them.
Rhett: "If you wanna do creepy Christmas..."
Link: "Who are you? Tim Burton?"
Favorite reference ever.
my too
Ya know an awesome idea for decoration would be to have one of those bowls that says "Take 1 per person" and have a little camera hooked up so you can see the bowl, and if anyone takes more than one then the lights go off and thunder noises start and then there's fog and you swipe down from god knows where and freak them out somehow telling them that you should have only taken one and that since they betrayed your trust, they shouldn't get any candy and take their whole bag and run off into the sky laughing.
That would create some mixed emotions for people.
Why not switch their candy? With vegetables. I'm sure kids love eating their veggies ;P
One of my neighbors as a kid wore a scarecrow costume while holding a bowl of candy. He didn't look real so when kids would grab for candy he'd go BOOOO!
That's what people should do to those kids
orayole I was jigsaw for 2 years and I looked like sooo real that I would sit with the bowl and scare people when they took candy
I've thought of doing that before. Once my grandmother dressed up as a scare crow so well that people thought she was just a decoration. Then some teen angers came over and one of them said," let's rip up the scare crow" so when they got closer to her she jumped up and shouted at them and they got so created out and ran away.
citcat20 Your grandma is epic. Wait, all grandmads are epic! ;)
For Halloween
Rhett=Shrek
Link=Donkey
Best Idea Ever.
Shrek is love, Shrek is life!
It's all ogre now...
It's never ogre
Jack Howitzer Its never ogre...
Link would make a good Lord Farquaad.
I stopped "trick-or-treating" when I was 12 or 13 I think, after that I just gave out candy every year, and I love seeing the smiles on the kids faces.
I'm 22 now, and this year I'm going to a retirement home where lots of kids like to visit every Halloween and help them pass out candy to the kids.. Not as many kids around my neighborhood the past few years thanks to downtown and the neighboring cities.
That's a really awesome idea, I've never thought about options like that. Good for you! :D
Last time I went trick or treating, my friend and I had our candy stolen by teenagers.
Mata-Hari Lindemann That sucks well we can all hope that the same happens to them
webreaper2000 It probably did.
You're never to old to have fun gust go if you want there's no problem dess up to

TheWeltewelte I swear I saw someone on a show do this. That's pretty sweet.
7:45 "I think they might be Wiccan or something."
I don't care if that's not an accurate representation of Wiccans, I'm just happy to finally get some recognition xD
Halloween decorations are not stupid if the strand lights are red, because then after Halloween you just put up green lights and your ready for christmas.
smart thinking!
And maybe orange and yellow for Thanksgiving!
Then you have to take em down again
not even Halloween yet and they are playing Christmas ads on tv wow to early
But you're surroundings also have less knowledge about you
People obsessed with dressing up for Halloween should be informed about Cosplaying.
Christmas has pagan origins too guys :P just saying
What are you talking about? Christmas began with the birth of Christ.
Jesus was born in summer. They switched his birthday to coincide with a pre existing pagan holiday
Colin Ringle Nah man, sorry to tell you this but christmas is merely a new name slabbed on prexisting pagan holidays :)
Brendan E. You're correct. The only reason shepherds would be out at night is because it would have been mating season, which is the spring. The reason Christmas was moved was because the early Christians at the time were being persecuted, so they disguised it on the same day as a pagan holiday to avoid being detected.
KPTree That must vary from culture to culture. The reason its the 24th/25th here in scandinavia is because the vikings already had a holiday on almost the same day, and since the christian king was forcibly converting everyone, they thought they'd help the process along by attributing the holiday to the christian god.

You are smart
I lost a brother that way... TIMMYYYYYYYYY!!!WHYY TIMMY? WHYYYYY?!!!!
Your smart!!!! I would never do that either
Rodney way RODNEY, IS THAT YOU? IM TIMMY, ITS BEEN SO LONGGGG
Heart warming.
I love that in every video their clothes always compliment each other. I'm sure it's done on purpose, but I just love it.
My house gives out king size candy bars, Full size Skittles, full size Hershy Bars and full size Milky Ways
Halloween is like a pre-Christmas in my family. I LOVE decorating the inside of my house, although I'm not crazy about decorating the outside.

Link lives down the block from the Addams family
Good mythical night from down in New Zealand!
I like seeing Rhett struggling not to insult his neighbor, lol, you can tell he really didn't think about what he was going to say before he started talking.
Hahahahahaha the "Please only take one" sign is the biggest joke ever!
I am not only left handed.
But was born Oct 31'st 1985. If i had been born 100 year's earlier.
burned at the stake for being a witch.
Whew.. dodged that bullet.
SomethinDwnUrPantss they burned guys to just not as much
SomethinDwnUrPantss
Men were convicted as Witches as well.
SomethinDwnUrPantss True true i am
But still would probably be persecuted
They didn't burn people for witchcraft in 1885. And they would have just beat the left handedness out of you. They did that to my grandmother in the 30s and she's ambidextrous because of it.

please you guys, i want this wheel of mythicality animated next saturday!
When I was six or so my dad showed me how to paper mache a skull for Halloween and we propped it up outside with a robe around it - I was incredibly proud of it at the time and apparently it was pretty convincing. I was, however, quite disappointed when we had to take it down later that evening because it made another kid cry.
when we go trick or treating, we go to a neighborhood were my aunt lives and one of the houses gives KING SIZE CANDY BARS!! its amazing.
Rhett and Link should do a joint costume, Rhett = toilet roll over, Link = toilet roll under.
My friend Rosie has an uncle who goes all out on Halloween. He covers his entire front lawn with screaming graves, ghosts and robotic vampires ect. She says you can hear it all from about 5 streets away lol
I put that little bowl of candy out one year only to have it taken. The next year I gave those little kids a lesson and covered a bowl of rocks with a thin layer of candy. When they dumped it in their bag they got a trick and a treat!
Love these guys, I'm typing an essay as I listen to this. It actually works quite well.
Rhett should pull out the Hawk Man costume again and go as that!
lol "Please Take One" = "Please Take One At A Time!"
I have a suggestion for Link. Just put an EMPTY bowl out with the note. Whoever is taking the candy will think they were too late. :D
Rhett: "Things that move around..."
Link: "what like...animatronicts?"
Me: FREDDY FLIPPING FAZBAER ANAMATRONICS????!!!!!!!!!!!
I could listen to this all day.
Good Mythical Morning from Kentucky!
Every Halloween I put out an empty bowl with a sign on it that says "First come, First served. Happy Halloween".
There's this house near mine and the front yard has tons of fake people in scary costumes. There's probably at least 100 but it's crazy, there are "people" hanging from the tree, people on the porch, people standing. It's crazy and I've seen so many people stop to take photos of it cause it's so extravagant.
If you are ever in the Memphis area on Halloween, come to Domino Cove in Arlington. The whole cove is decorated for Halloween, with ghosts zooming from house to house, animatronic ghouls and witches, etc. So much fun!
NeilSimounDomingo yep. Every year
If you are looking for it just Google Domino Cove, Arlington, Tn.
I have some friends that take decorating for halloween very seriously! They start in like mid August and go all out.

Last year they made a life size model of the headless horseman and put it in the middle of their yard! Their house now makes the newspaper because it's so impressive.
Link: …cat entrails…
ME: Gasp* laughing* that's horrible!
a house near me decorates their whole yard with skeletons and tombstones and skeletalhorses and yada yada in october, then leave it up after halloween and just put santa hats on all the skeletons through the new year lol
I always try to be nice and just take one. I also know about the dead end thing. Last year we got 2 trick or treaters in a neighborhood where almost every family has kids.

Good
That seems impractical. Maybe they really like black lights?
Once you go black you never go back
They're self-proclaimed satanists. And they have children. Let me just throw that out there now.
I am watching this at night and it just feels more right because of the darkness of the set.
I think after the first year, Link, one of your neighbors decided they didn't need to buy candy to hand out anymore and just takes yours after you leave :P
Link left a bowl that says, "take one." Link leaves, but forgets something, so he walk back. He sees that the candy bowl is empty. Looks like Nicholas Cage is rebooting Gone in Sixty Seconds: Halloween candy edition.
If someone with a bowl outside is out of candy I will proceed to take the bowl.
Hope everyone has a goooood mythical morning
My neighbor always decorates his front yard with giant blow up pumpkins and things hanging from the trees and such... yet, nobody ever comes to the houses on my street haha.
Link is Rhetts personal news channel that never turns off

Anyone else gagging when he put the tape in his mouth ?
Nope.
No, not really
Heather Gonzalez
yea
For some reason, it was making me SO anxious.
Good Mythical Morning from South Carolina!
Since I was a small child, halloween has been my favorite holiday. I love to be scared and all that goes bump in the night.
Ok so in my neighborhood this one guy had a full haunted trail with a guys (about 50) dressed as zombies chasing you with one guy who jumps in front of you with a chainsaws and gives away king size candy bars no joke

I have lived in many different places around the world so it is odd when some holidays aren't really celebrated like they were where I grew up. :/ Like no Thanksgiving. I grew up having food, friends, and family with me on that day but if I'm not in the U.S. there is no Thanksgiving. Sorry to hear you have no trick or treaters.
Ahhhh!! The horror of getting oranges and peanuts lol. Ruined my childhood xD
lol the worst treat to get when I was a kid was toothpaste. Or raisins.
I live in the countryside in Ireland too but there is a small village where kids and teenagers
Here, in Croatia we have carnivals throughout the whole year, in different cities ...but mostly in February. So we dress up whenever there's some masquerade. But most important there are wonderful events in the summer...so we can regulate the clothes depending on weather. It's fun! :)
I've gone to houses before with the bowl out with a sign that says Only take one, We're watching you. O.O Creepers.
Theres a house around my neighbourhood, where they take Halloween seriously. They have people dressed up in creepy costumes, and people dressed in black that hide then jump out and scare you. Every year they have a theme, one year it was clowns. That is the reason why I hate clowns.
On Halloween, me and my friends trick or treat then we go back to the place we are partying at and take the candies we don't like, trade, and take the rest that we put out into a bowl and serve the candy.
My family (well.. my mum really) goes so overboard at every single holiday that we get people driving for sometimes 30 minutes just to see the front of our house because word has gotten around about the crazy family in Sherwood!
Totally saw that tape worm joke coming *Rolls Eyes*
Lol XD
Good mythical morning from Massachusetts!!
There's someone at the estate around half a mile away, who has christmas decorations up for halloween. Another person - well, two or three people - did a ghost and scarcrow jumpscare thing a coupla years back.
I leave out an empty bowl at halloween with a sign please take one. lol
omg genius plan
Everyone will think someone took everything even though you didnt put anything in there lmfao
Faze Doge Such plan, many clever. wow.

When I was growing up Halloween was always my favorite holiday.
With the only take one dillema you could get one of those "Smile for the camera" signs. Maybe that will stop the candy snatchers.
There are some people that spend a lot of time and money on Halloween decorations here in Raleigh, NC. There is one guy in downtown Raleigh that has about 20-30 animatronics and statues in his yard, and he is still putting them up.
"please take one"
"HOLY SHIT THERE IS ONE BOWL LEFT!! I AM SO LUCKY!!"
I don't understand people who won't celebrate a Holiday because of how it started, it doesn't matter how it started what matters is how it is now, Halloween today is just a time to dress up and get candy and possibly get scared for fun
GMM guys! Have a nice day!
When my boys were kids I'd decorate and give out candy. But now, I live in a gated community, no kids come, so no candy giving. But at work before I had to retire due to injuries, I'd set a bowl out with different candies and a sign on my desk. I'd have to refill it often. Even the Associate Director would stop by to ask how my surgeries were going and eat a couple pieces lol
Their stance on Halloween just dropped them down a notch in my opinion. It really is the best holiday if you think about it. Christmas is mostly for children. Thanksgiving is for adults. Eastern of kids. New Years is for adults. Halloween though is for everyone. Trick or treating for kids and awesome costume parties for adults. Getting scared and scaring others. Not to mention messing with kids and pranking neighbors.
Halloween is my favorite holiday because it's in my favorite season of the year, I love going to haunted houses, scary stuff is the best, I get to dress up, there's hay rides and bonfires, and i get candy so idk I just love it.
Halloween is an awesome holiday I go all out
Totally agree with Rhett's theory on Halloween even though I'm a Christian. Still hate all the other super festive holidays aside from Thanksgiving of course.
Finnaly someone in the comments section that doesn't shove Thierry religion down our throats (saying this in the nicest way possible)
Where I live in Kentucky....decorating your house/yard for Halloween is as common as doing Christmas yard decor!
I have a neighbour like the obsessed type. he blasts creepy music and has working gallows (complete with corpses) among many other bits and bobs
It's the best holiday cause it's a non denominational holiday and allows you to be something your not, to step out side the box and express yourself how ever you want. and no costume is a bad costume, any costume is an amazing costume Link. So act a fool and be Mythical, you guys of all people should have Mythical Fun with this one.
This Halloween, when kids knock on the door I'll hand out restaurant sauce packets and bbq sauce and let them pick what they want
Im in the bible belt in oklahoma, and there is hardly any houses lacking in halloween decor, halloween is very big around here, with haunted houses, decorated yards, there's even one house by me that has a herst decked out with a coffin and everything. I love halloween, even though I'm 30 I still dress up and take my kids out trick or treating, and I like being more creative every year with creepier and creepier costumes.
I know my favorite thing is that you pick who you are spending it with as an adult. It's not like you are forced to hang out with weird uncle Larry.. You spend it with friends mostly.
Massachusetts FTW watching at 6:36 in the morning before school :D
Rhett , bro , buddy , pal ...... "Oh yeah baby , give it to me , I want it soooo bad" in that tone of voice & that facial expression , kinda creepy man lol !
We are the household who never take down Halloween decorations and don't decorate for any other holiday. In a town of less than 100 people, we tend to stick out and get left alone.
my neighbor has insane decorations on Halloween. He even has people act out a murder scene on his second floor balcony every 10 minutes.
I remember one time when I saw a "Please Take One" bowl, I took the whole bowl. Not just the candy, but the bowl too
You guys should take your families around the larchmont area. Around 3rd st. I used to live there and people make haunted houses. Some even hire people to dress up and scare you. It gets crazier than you think.
I know a house that gave out king sized candy bars. I know them still they were nice and had a lot of decorations. I moved but I have a friend in that neighborhood and still say hi to them.
Not a single house where I live is decorated.
