I saw a kid with an invisible man type set up with an oversized suit coat and a little wire at the top holding up a pair of glasses so it appeared they had no head.
I had a bunch of kids dress up as my dad and not show up
Had some teenagers come to the door at the end of the night with really lame costumes, with cheap capes and a bit of face make up. I don’t think they cared what they were dressing up us and they were going through the motions of collecting candy.
From my own experience as a kid on Halloween, I’m pretty sure they had been to a few houses where people weren’t nice to them.
I made them laugh and asked them if they were having fun … then gave them several handfuls of chocolates, candies and a bunch of chips. They were surprised and said mine was the best house they’d been to. Told them they were great and to have fun. Waved them off and saw them running down the street.
It’s great to be a kid … but it also feels good to make kids feel great too.
It was partly to save myself … we got rained on for Halloween this year so we had half as many kids come to the door. I had stocked up on a ton of candy and I wanted to get rid of it as much as possible. I really didn’t want to get stuck with several boxes of chocolates and chips at the end of the night. You should have seen the two teens that I decided were going to be the last ones I served for the night at 8:50pm … I had about a hundred little chocolate bars and about eight bags of little chips … I told them they were the last two I would serve for the night and I gave them everything. They were tall kids about maybe 14 or 15 and I could see myself in them. I thought, if I were them, I would have been very happy to meet an adult like me on Halloween night. Felt great to give all that stuff to them. Their eyes were wide and amazed as I filled their bags. They’ll enjoy it more than me.
There was a couple at a party i went to that were each dressed as a giant boob. When they stood next to each other they completed the rack.
Nice. I hope everyone took the time to make every dirty pun that the costume demands.
Friend and her husband were Kamala and Kanye -that was good. Another friend’s family went as Gravity Falls and that was fun. Several cute spidermen and general fairies and princesses.
