I am having Halloween withdrawals already. In the states I go nuts and make huge props for my yard haunt. Usually the news shows up and I alway have a fire truck full of cute firefighters that make me shut off half my fog machines. ;D I realize that it's not as celebrated here as on the states for many reasons including cultural. My question is do any of the bars or restaurants do a big costume party or decorate up their bar? I am looking to help for FREE (obviously I will not pay for props - just free labor) to feed my habit. I dont do cutesy props - gory, bloody, scary is my bag, I am also an artist, have some great painting skills (can make VERY realistic headstones - look just like concrete) and can build just about anything. I also want to check out a costume contest or two. Already started my costume lol. It's a sick habit.

Foxy's masquerade ball is a blast if you're up for a trip to JVD.

I was thinking Hideaway would be fun, that huge area would make for a fun maze. I doubt I could get them on board with funding.

I'm sure you could if there were a cover charge to get in an partake of the fun/scary house. I'm sure people would be more than happy to spend $15.00-$20.00 a head to get inside and have a little fun and not to mention what they would make off of selling "spirits" (wink). I'm sure these owners are a lot more progressive than Larry ever was.

Just read the Island Trader and Daily News when it gets closer to Halloween because that is when all the bars/restaurants, organizations, etc. advertise about their Halloween parties. Some have cash prizes. Others are fundraisers for specific organizations. You will busy going to all parties.
