jackskellington17: a haunted tree is a GREAT idea. I can just see it in my mind...spanish moss and dead leaves hanging, a bat, an owl, a raven roosting, an ugly face, and two long arms with stick fingers to grab passersby...awesome

hmm a haunted tree - sounds interesting I LOVE IT!!!
I still have yet to even begin to imagine what mine will be this year. I dont believe I will be hosting a party this year

and none of my friends have costume parties - but dont fear I will find an excuse to wear one

Unfortunately, I could pull off the circus midget thing since I'm barely 5 feet tall.

I was thinking about being a Titanic NONsurvivor...not sure...hopefully this isn't in poor taste.

LawP, I saw a costume of that very thing a few years ago, the girl wore a sort of grey evening gown, her hair was gelled to make it look "wet", seaweed hanging all over, her makeup was greyish white and a sort of bluish cast around the edges, like she was "freezing". (Blue finger nails would add to the effect.) And to top it off, she had a life preserver around her upper torso that said USS Titanic on it! It was awesome.

Tomorrow or sometimes soon, if I provided a link that will take you to the costume I'd like to purchase, could some of you, especally if you've had any experiences with the quality ,price & S&H costs for a costume from a particular store , let me know where the best place to purchase it would be, thanks a million guys! Will get it posted as soon as possible.
I have to really start saving as the gown is quite expensive, well for me it is. And I'd still have other accessories to purchase to make my costume what I want. It's so hard with how much US S&H prices went up on May 14th, anyone else notice the jump in S&H costs down there?
Many Thanks & Special Blessings Are sent your way

Welcome Naturepixie! The good thing about witch costumes is there are so many versions that you won't get bored with the same old thing. The coven idea sounds fun!

Hi NaturePixie, First I'd say welcome to our Halloween Coven so to speak

You'll love it here, awesome group of people, all for the same cause! Your idea of a Witch Coven Theme for your 2007 haunt sounds awesome. Maybe we can bounce ideas off each other cause thats kind of what I'm doing, although I want to add a bat cave & have the Cemetry as well.
So nice to meet you, look forward to talking with you more.
