So we are in the scariest month of the year. Post your favorite halloween stories. Here is a decent one from snopes to kick things off.

On 26 October 2005, the corpse of a 42-year-old woman was left suspended in public view for hours in Frederica, Delaware, because her lifeless body was assumed to be yet another Halloween display. The unnamed woman hung herself from a tree located across a moderately busy road from some homes. Her body, suspended about 15 feet above the ground, could easily be seen from passing vehicles.

I know we have had ghost threads and such in the past, but what are you favorite halloween specific stories.


Personally, one year I had to work on Halloween (more often than not the case) and I arrived home around 9:00 PM with trick or treaters all over the place. I sat in my car for a few minutes, then walked up to the door behind a family knocking on our door. I really didn't have any intentions of scaring anyone, and I just stood there waiting politely while my kids jumped out at the trick or treaters and their mom and dad laughed and waved. I was behind the dad, a big guy that kind of looks like a biker dude with lots of tattoos, bald with a goatee. As his kids finished up he turned around and there I was. He screamed out loud, high-pitched like the proverbial "little girl" and threw his handful of treats he had weaseled from his kids straight up in the air and fell over one of his kids as he frantically tried to backpedal away from me. It was absolutely hilarious. I mean, I know I am no spring pig, but really?
 
So it's almost time for that night where I turn the lights off and pretend not to be home.
 
364 days a year we constantly tell our kids NOT to take candy from strangers and one day a year we not only endorse it, we actually help.
 
My favorite Halloween story....

One year I decided to be funny and dress up as Pocahontas. Hahahaha ROFL LMAO I was CROSS-dressing for Halloweeen!! I was so clever.


Anyways, being the cool cat I was, I was home alone Halloween night passing out candy to trick or treaters. And little did I know, I was going to get tricked! Hard!

About 8:30, when the door-knockers were finishing their rounds, a couple of 12 year olds rang my bell. I open the door and watch their mouths drop as they see teenage boy dressed like a teenage Indian princess. And this one little punk decides to open his mouth and say, "you didn't need to wear a dress to be a girl for Halloween."

So naturally, to prove how manly I really was, I chased the kid down, grabbed his bag of candy and ripped it in half, dumping all the candy on the street.

I have plenty of good Halloween stories, but Halloween is my wife's birthday so the rest of the stories have nearly nothing to do with Halloween.

I have a great werewolf costume which I have used multiple times. For a few years I would hide by the car or around the side of the house and come out running and growling to scare kids. Well, after realizing I was giving the kiddies near heart attacks, I decided to just stay in the house - still in costume, but not quite as scary as jumping out at people. Now, I also have a TON of Halloween lights and yard decorations, including one that covers the door (i.e. no way to use the peep hole to see who is on the porch).

So one time I open the door, in full costume and full yell mode and scare the crap out of a poor little 3 or 4 year old boy. He starts sobbing hysterically in the arms of his parents. And they give me a total "WTF?" look. I whip off the mask and start talking softly to the little guy, apologizing and telling him it's only a costume and just pretend. Finally have him calmed down so I decide to give him some candy. I reach down, grab the bowl which I had put down when the crying started and extend it out to him. Only one problem...I still had my werewolf claws on. Yep, the crying starts all over again, with me apologizing profusely to his parents who were not exactly amused.

Awesome. Scaring the kids is the best treat on halloween. Fun for all ages!

I had a good scare for one of my kids the other night. My oldest son went with several of his friends to see Annabelle. They came home talking about how creepy and scary it was and my son was acting all cool and everything. They had a sleep over in our basement and he kept acting like it was no big deal, but I know he has a seriously imagination and I figured I could take advantage of that. So when they were all winding down I went downstairs and took a print out of the Annabelle doll's face I had just printed and rigged it in the bathroom on the end of a broomstick, propped it against the shower, and tied it off to the door handle with dental floss. In the bathroom we have a little night light so it is easier to find in the dark, and with the main light turned off it highlighted the Annabelle face quite well. I was not disappointed when my son was the one to go use the bathroom first, and as he opened the door the "doll" came at him, as the broom fell. He lost it, screamed and tried to turn and run, fell flat on his butt and the annabelle face fell between his legs. He was still screaming as he tried to kick it away and it took him a bit to realize it was just a piece of paper. It was great.
 
The first deer I killed was close enough to hallowed eve to have some fun with. We had a roof over the porch that was shaped so that I could hide in a pocket and crawl out unseen when someone knocked the door. I hung the deer's head from a rope and lowered it behind unsuspecting treaters.

Unfortunately we only had one set of visitors and it was my lil sister's hot *** friend Amanda. We didn't bang.
