Ghosts of Halloweens Past (Your Childhood Costumes)

[robo_rob]

I really wish I had pictures of my halloween costumes. I was Pac-Man the same year my brother went as the Kraken from Clash of the Titans. Snarl the Dinobot in the second grade. Mostly I went as monsters and such, but in third grade I went as the wolfman using one of those old paas make up kits from the grocery store and it was my all time favorite. Speaking of paas costumes, in kindegarden they had these three headed costumes with make up (inflatable heads on each shoulder and your head in a hood and make up in the middle). I went as a three headed skeleton and my cousin as a three headed clown. Those kits were all the rage in my town that year and were never seen again. Really a shame. Same year my brother started wearing his Gamoren Gaurd mask from Return Of The Jedi, a mask he wore every year after until he 'out grew' Halloween.

Oh, I had forgotten. In the first grade my mother bought me a Spider-Man costume that i was all to happy to wear. Until I saw the 'Fire Retardant' label on the side of the box. I thought mom had gotten me the costume for retards and was pretty depressed about it. Until Halloween and somehow forgot my depression for trick or treating around town and in the mall.
