A "Ghoul" Evening




Do you recognize these rather "famous" hitch-hikers? They were taking a little leave of absence from their regular gig at Disneyland for Halloween last night in Toluca Lake. Looks like they need a ride back to the park ;p

Yes, last night was Halloween, the one night of the year where kids can actually ask strangers for candy without their parents worrying about it. And boy did we give out a lot! The night was spent at David's house passing out full sized Kit-Kat, Hershey, Reese's PBC bars to any a Halloween ghoul. We all dressed up for the occasion to greet the happy haunts appropriately. I was dressed as a Knight, Tamlyn as a Sorceress, Tara as Victoria Beckham (which was quite a popular costume BTW), Daniel as some sort of purple hat wearing ghoul, David as a Cowboy (how creative!), and Mike as a Geek (which really wasn't really a stretch for him).



Because Tamlyn and I are actors, Daniel too, we totally played our parts while passing out the candy. Me with my Medieval euphemisms and phrases, and Tamlyn scaring kids by asking them the Halloween password of "Trick or Treat". It was fun to see the kids come over to the porch and see what awesome costumes they had on. BTW, "High School Musical" costumes were also quite popular as well.

In between passing out the treats, we walked over to David's neighbor's house which was fully decked out in Halloween paraphernalia, including full sized coffins, Leather Face, Predator/Alien, and a mini Haunted hallway. Heck, there was even a full sized werewolf. Can you guess which one is "real"?


In the end, we passed out 1950 candy bars over the course of 2 hours. Wow. That's a lot of cavaties!

Ah, Halloween. What a night! Oh, and a huge happy birthday goes out to my mom whose birthday is on Halloween. Happy Birthday mom!
