Halloween Spirits

The best costume I ever wore was of my smarty pants costume. It was very creative by my mom. I am not the kind of person who likes dressing up much for Halloween because it gets so uncomfortable, but with this costume I could just wear jeans and tape them onto my pants. It was awesome.
My favorite Halloween was the year when me and my friend dressed up and went trick or treating in her neighbor hood. She lives in a really nice area and one of the places gave us the big Hersey candy bars. We also got to hang out with her brother and his friends and ran around outside playing hide and go seek. It was a really fun time.
As I reached into the bag of candy I thought I heard a voice saying "Pick me, pick me." My favorite candy by far for Halloween is recess peanut butter cups. But it always seems that I get so many suckers. I never was a kid that really liked hard candy because it would give me headaches. Somehow though those little candies would want me to eat them so bad they appeared in every corner of my bag.
As I was putting my costume on I heard something move in my closet. It seems as if when your ready to get scared everything starts to become more than what it is. I as a nervous child was one of those who freaked out at every move. I still to this day cannot go in haunted corn mazes. I got so scared the first time I went that I jumped on my friends boyfriends back. I made him carry me the way out. She wasn't mad at me, because she knew I was just really scared. I also get scared by scary stories. I am just a little scaredy cat.
To make a great Halloween costume, you have to be creative and willing to use all the things in your house. I hate costumes that I see people go and buy, because there is no creativity in that. Usually the people who have the most fun costumes made in themselves, and people usually notice them quicker. One thing you can do is take a cardboard box and cut two holes in the bottom big enough for your legs to fit in, and take and use duck tape as suspenders to keep it up. Then attach balloons to yourself coming out of the card board box, and you will be a hot air balloon. It was so cute when I saw it, and so creative. I loved it.
 Halloween costumes that I have had in the past years are, Dorothy from the wizard of Oz, Smarty Pants, Witch, Nun, Bubble Bee, Cinderella, and many more that I cant remember. I was never a girly girl growing up so it was really hard for my mom to get me in those costumes. I would never wear things on my head either so for all of my costumes she had to make sure I wouldn't have to have something on my head.
