Happy Halloween!

heres some facts and games for you xxx

Happy Halloween!

• Mexico celebrates 'The Day of the Dead' instead of Halloween.
• Halloween is celebrated on the eve of All Saints Day.
• Halloween originated from a Celtic festival. Celts were an ancient European tribe.
• Samhainophobia is an intense fear of Halloween.
• In Scotland, turnips are traditionally carved into jack-o-lanterns.
• Paraskavedekatriaphobia is a fear of the number 13.
• Halloween is second only to Christmas in spending. People spend as much as over $2.5 billion during Halloween on candies, costumes, decorations and parties.
• Druids worshipped Samhain, the Lord of the Dead or the Lord of Darkness. The Druid New Year began on November 1st and Lord Samhain was believed to reign over the long winter months.
• Pumpkins originated in Central America. When Europeans arrived in the New World, they found pumpkins plentiful and used in cooking by Native Americans. They took seeds back to Europe where they quickly became popular.
• There are no words in the dictionary that rhyme with orange, the color of pumpkin.
• Growing big pumpkins is a big time hobby. Top prize money for the biggest giant pumpkin is as much as $25,000 dollars at fall festivals.
• It is believed that the Irish began the tradition of Trick or Treating. In preparation for All Hallow's Eve, Irish townsfolk would visit neighbors and ask for contributions of food for a feast in the town.
Taken from Halloween Trivia - Halloween Facts - Halloween Tidbits

also it's tradition to carry an acorn on halloween to fend off evil spirits :D

Hallows eve to all. Remember the hallowed tomorrow, well, upon midnight when eve turns to another day :flame:

Don't forget the rest of the dead tomorrow as they might get testy if you don't. It's a day for the hollowed and the dead afterall.

Remember old jack, who carved a piece of coal, that he got fro the devil, into a turnip and still wanders the lands for a place to rest. Light those veggeiheads to keep old jack away.

And just to be mean;

"There are no words in the dictionary that rhyme with orange, the color of pumpkin.", there's hinge for one :D

Also, turnips are the original vegetables used, by jack and should be by you least jack come and rest at your home :D

Big thanks to Tasslehoff for giving me his bunny outfit! Without him I would be dressed as a bum! :D

It's a bit dirty, but it'll come right out with a wash, so it's all good! Picture as promised:


ps. nevermind the timestamp, I set it once when I was really drunk

I woke up just now and I've had the most insane night out in my bunny costume! I kissed probably every girl at the bar, I danced all night totally fucked on coke and I had a blast! My god what a night.. Lost my phone in a cab, did coke which I never usually do, kissed and hugged everyone I could get my hands on and I've never had that much fun

Few pics:

Bunnies have more fun

Dancing with Poison Ivy and a fairy

Evil Bunny

Cool Bunny, lol

Give Halloween more often please! :D
