These pictures come from Wired Magazine (http://www.wired.com/culture/art/multimedia/2008/10/gallery_old_halloween?slide=12&slideView=3). Anyone else have some vintage Halloween pictures, or even some of you as a kid in costume?

This picture is really scary. I wonder if future generations will find our costumes scary or if they will mostly be surprised how slutty so many of our costumes are.

You have some deep seeded issues :haha:

I do have to agree with ya, those vintage ones do seem scary, compared to even the high priced masks you see today. They don't capture the fear like those vintage ones :nod:

I found this one disturbing. A court jester carrying around a decapitated head....


The king is dead. Long live the king!

That might be the kid's own mask and he's just not wearing it in the pic. Creepy though.

That makes sense, but it is still creepy!

Yours truly at 3 1/2 in my batman costume. We were super poor and my mom made our own costumes as you can see. I had so much fun though! One of my earliest memories. I don't remember this 2nd one with me being superman, but that's definitely me in the middle there. And here is one from 3 or 4 christmas cards which i friggin laugh at everytime. I'm in the back behind my mom. Off subject i know but it was in the folder so figured what the heck.

Don,

Thanks for sharing the vintage pics!! Those are fabulous.

I don't have any to share, I went trick or treating for the first time when my son was 3. It was so much fun watching him run from house to house as fast as his little legs would carry him and see his eyes light up.

Now we zoom from house to house on 4 wheelers up in Mt Green. THAT IS FUN!!
