RSS Feeds: Halloween Costumes for Adults
When children think of Halloween, they think of dressing up in costumes and going trick or treating. They're more concerned about the sugary treats than anything else. Adults, on the other hand, think of costume parties and lots of alcohol abuse to go along with them. I'm actually planning my Halloween holiday for next year because I want my wife to be around to protect me. Trust me, if you've read my previous articles on Filipino folklore, you'll understand what I'm talking about.
Costume Shops
This is something I haven't seen in the Philippines — a costume shop of any kind. Of course, I don't get away from Olongapo enough to know if they exist elsewhere in the country. I'm sure there's a costume shop in one of the SM malls, but I'm not eager to drive for more than hour to look and see.
To get an idea of what kind of Halloween costumes adults wear nowadays, I checked out Costume SuperCenter.com, a site that's been online for about three and a half years. Some of the costumes I saw were pretty good while others were simply horrible.
I'm not going to give you a guided tour, but I'll tell you the names of the costumes I'm thinking about for next year. I probably won't be able to buy the exact same ones, but I'm sure I'll be able to construct something similar with whatever's available (unless I change my mind out of fear of getting stoned to death).
The Deluxe Beast Wings And Chest Piece Adult Costume and the Midnight Reaper Robe Adult are the only two I really like. Unfortunately, both will probably get me killed by people mistaking me for an aswang or ghost or something. This is why I would need my wife around — to protect me from the non-city folk who are way too superstitious for their own good.
Halloween Parties
Whether I end up buying or making or a little of both for next year is debatable. I'm really more concerned about having a Halloween party for the adults, something that hasn't happened since I moved here. I think it would be a lot of fun.
The most fun would be the adults running around the neighborhood in lifelike Halloween costumes and scaring everyone. It will never happen. Not here. No way.
