Halloween Blast from the Past

This year with Halloween being on a week night and Steve being out of town, I will probably just sit at home and watch scary movies, alone, with a glass of wine.  Who am I kidding, scary movies are not my thing! But the wine will definitely be present. How can I not be a fan of scary movies you may ask? Well, because I'm a total believer that they could all happen in real life. Possibly also one of the reasons I did not have many dolls as a child. And yes, I believe in ghosts and UFOs. I was the crazy kid that swore she saw a UFO out her bedroom window.

So, I stick to the "safe" Halloween movies. The ones without chainsaw-wielding men or paranormal activity. Here's a list of my favorite [safe] Halloween movies:

Do you have any favorite Halloween movies? 

While we're talking Halloween, let's take a quick look back at some of my costumes over the past 7+ years, my "ghosts of costumes passed", back to the days when dressing up for Halloween meant parties and $ beers. (I apologize in advance for not asking the permission of those of you in these pictures.)


Definitely not my finest moments, but definitely some amazing memories.

What's your favorite Halloween memory?

  11. I also do NOT go for serial killers wielding chainsaws. Though I am a complete zombie-phile, so episodes of "The Walking Dead," "Night of the Living Dead," and "Dawn of the Dead" will be on repeat. I also love the old old old classic horror movies, like "Dracula" with Bela Lugosi (we're talking early 1930s) and "Frankenstein" with Boris Karloff.
