Haunted Houses and Dancing Skeletons (1929)
Since we’re posting things to get us into the halloween mood around here, I thought I’d put this up. It’s Disney’s Mickey Mouse from 1929 in Haunted House. I was fascinated by it when I was a little kid and pretty sure it’s what began my fascination/addiction with skulls, skeletons and bones.
Another fun one related to Micky’s haunted house adventure is Disney’s short from 1929 The Skeleton Dance.
Tim Burton’s Sleepy Hollow (1999)
Tonight I’m going to watch one of my favorite movies to get myself in the mood for Halloween – Sleepy Hollow by Tim Burton. It’s everything that sums up the season for me: exciting, creepy, kind of dangerous, crisp colors, pumpkins, Christopher Walken. I think it’s a bit of underrated genius, plus it really is a classic Halloween story from back in the day. I remember watching the Disney version on t.v. every year when I was a kid.
SoCreepy wants to get you in the mood, too! For your viewing pleasure, let me tease you with some Sleepy Hollow!
Iron Man, Whiplash and War Machine Halloween Costumes
Hey beefy manly man…are you feeling Tony Stark sexy? Do ya wanna? Well, I want you to! I wanna see your awesomeness wrapped up in an Iron Man Halloween costume this October. I want to see blue Christmas lights pulsing from your chest and hear the clunk of your boots as you approach the Bitches Brew Halloween punch.
What’s that you say? Everyone is going to wear an Iron Man Halloween costume this year? Yeah, you’re probably right. Oh? You also say you’re too much man to really be Iron Man? Ah, of course. You wanna whip out the Whiplash Halloween costume. Whip. Bad joke. And don’t get me started on how hot Mickey Rourke USED to be! But I digress…
Seriously guys, this year a hot Halloween Costume look will be anything from Iron Man – Tony Stark, Iron Man, Whiplash or War Machine. If you’re feeling especially spicy, let me see you go as Pepper Potts. Spicy. Damn, I did it again. Just don’t forget to shave your legs. Gywneth would never approve otherwise.
Alice in Wonderland Halloween Costumes
Do you think Alice in Wonderland is a slut? Growing up, I never really thought she was. I mean, she definitely wasn’t the kind of girl I wanted to be friends with – too prissy with her little black shoes and hair bow. SoCreepy is definitely not a fan of the prudish types.
Now though, I’m thinking Alice in Wonderland may very well be part slut – and part badass! I think that after checking out all the Alice in Wonderland Halloween costumes. I mean, Alice is just a girl trying to make her way in a world full of weirdos, right? “How” she makes it is clearly up to you, dear reader. That’s why I recommend an Alice in Wonderland Halloween costume this year. The possibilities are endless.
Alice in stilettos? Got ya covered! Alice in bondage? You’re a dirty girl! Remember, you can also opt for the Queen of Hearts and if you wanna bring a boy toy to the Halloween party, I recommend a Mad Hatter or Chesire Cat Halloween costume. If you’re REALLY gonna slut out in your Alice in Wonderland Halloween costume, you hook your boys up as Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. Double date. Bow chicka bow wow!
I ran across these fun drink accessories today. Perfect for Halloween or daily life these vampire fang ice cube trays are pretty cool and perfect for any Halloween or True Blood party.
For the zombie lover in us all they also have brain ice cube trays
Michael Jackson Halloween Costumes
Is it too soon for Michael Jackson Halloween Costumes? No, it’s not. Michael Jackson has been a hot Halloween costume for years and years. However, this year it’s about honoring the King of Pop.
How do you remember him? My personal favorite is always going to be the Michael Jackson Thriller Halloween Costume (go for the ghoul make-up, too)! If you grew up in the MTV generation (like me), you’re probably gonna want to go with the Michael Jackson Beat It Halloween Costume. If you liked his smooth style, SoCreepy suggests sporting the Michael Jackson Billie Jean Halloween Costume. Lastly, if you’re new to the MJ appreciation club, you might like the Michael Jackson Bad Halloween Costume.
You know what? Grab some friends and go as all versions of MJ. You know what else is required for Halloween night? That’s right – you better damn well play “Thriller” and you’d better zombie dance! RIP, Michael Jackson.
