It's probably our favorite holiday because it appeals to our theatrical, creative, silly nature. We even work regularly on the "boo crew" in a local haunted house. We put a lot of effort into our costumes (they are almost always homemade). We truly can't wait to put all that creativity into making costumes for our child(ren)!
These photos of a few of our past getups are some of the non-gory ones; I don't want to traumatize you guys too much.
My personal favorite is when we were the entity of Wal-Mart. Frank was dressed as Wal-Mart (a devil/store manager with a smiley face "disguise") and I was a Chinese factory worker chained to him. We even had a shtick where I would beg him for benefits and he would roar at me to just keep painting the toy squirrel. Yes, we are total geeks.

My husband has sleep apnea and wears frightening head gear to bed. Just wait till those kids come to our door this year—Hannibal Lecter will scare the bejesus out of them.

Your costumes are INSPIRED! That kid is going to have so much fun!Keep in mind that you only have influence over his (or her) costume for the first couple of years. So choose wisely ...
