?
no trick or treaters in the coffee house?!
oh well...
i remember how it was when i was a kid....
halloween was almost bigger than xmas.....
and all the neighborhood families got as nasty as they could with the spiders and ghosts and monsters and stuff...
some of the families would turn their family rooms into frikin' haunted houses...
i remember this one kid, on the other side of the neighborhood,
his family was into it like that bunch on 'modern family'....
you'd walk in the front door, and there would be enormous, life size robot of frankenstein....
somebody must have had a microphone somewhere, because if they knew who you were, they'd call you out by name, or say something creepy like "would you like me to put some bolts in?" or something like that....
LOL
some families did that creepy 'blind fold-stick your hand in this and figure out what it is' stuff....
i remember one kids' dad dressing up as a scarecrow and sitting on a bale of hay for hours, waiting for the ultimate 'jump' on somebody...
he got a big kid, that got so freaked out, he punched the scarecrow right in the nose!
i saw it......
and laughed.
guy had a bloody nose.
