POLL: Costumes? Hallowe'en?

I recently had a conversation with a friend about whether we were Hallowee'en/costume or non-costume people. He said he was definitely NON-Hallowe'en. I lean more toward the Hallowee'en/costume end, but it does depend on whim and mood. I used to get dressed up as a witch when I lived in a house and handed out treats.

A Hallowe'en Season and Costuming Survey:

Do you celebrate Hallowe'en? Do you like or dread the whole trick-or-treating ritual?

Are you a costume or non-costume person?

What costumes have you worn in the past that you find especially memorable, whether good or bad?

Do you make your own costumes?

Do you spell Hallowe'en with an apostrophe? (thanks to Rand for the additional poll question idea)

My first costume: Snow White (see below)



Ruth and me, Hallowe'en night. I'm dressed up as Snow White.

My most memorable costume: When Jeff and I went as the Way-Outs to a friend's Flintstones party. As I recall, Andy went as Betty Rubble. Kaarel went as a bowling ball.

My favourite costume: Performing in medieval dress at the Tolkien Gathering last year with Allison and Jodi! I never expected to enjoy wearing Tolkienesque garb so much; now I only wish that there was more opportunity to do so AND that it didn't take up so much room in one's luggage. :-)
