| 2720 | Article | Vaporman87 | The most memorable homemade costume I came up with on my own was a basic monster costume, with a plaid shirt and jeans, some gloves that looked like monster hands, and the real star of the getup... a pricey monster mask with light up eyes! I had purchased the mask some weeks earlier for a very pretty penny, and I was very excited to wow the neighborhood with it. The only problem... it was EXTREMELY difficult to see anything. The light up eyes had slits below them for my REAL eyes. This didn't offer a very good view of things, especially with darkness setting in. So in between houses I would have to raise up my mask so I could see where I was going. Other than that issue, the costume was a real success. I wish I would have kept that mask. It was such a great one for the time. | Sep 29, 2015 |  | |

| 2718 | Article | kidcoffee | You've cranked the Halloween feels to eleven. Great read, sir. | Forever Living in Halloween | Sep 25, 2015 | |
| 2717 | Article | onipar | I'm glad, Kronohs! I was hoping I'd elicit some of the Halloween tingles for everyone :-) | Forever Living in Halloween | Sep 25, 2015 | |
| 2716 | Article | Dravenkid7 | these also do gaming tournaments and events. Jacksonville is pretty huge but everyone loves this place. I lost when i played against a guy in the arcade but I didn't care. I was stoked just to play in a real arcade again. | Rescued By A Fistful of Quarters | Sep 25, 2015 | |
| 2715 | Article | kronohs | Great read. It brings out some of the same feelings I get at this time of year. | Forever Living in Halloween | Sep 24, 2015 | |
| 2714 | Article | onipar | Oh wow, Fair Week sounds kinda amazing. Yeah, I agree though, my memories typically come from the entire autumn season, and not only Halloween night. Thanks, Echidna! Fun fact: I met Fred Savage once outside a Phish concert. | Forever Living in Halloween | Sep 24, 2015 | |
| 2713 | Article | Vaporman87 | Very nice. I totally empathize with you regarding your thoughts and feelings of the season. It comes and goes way too quickly, and our door to simpler, carefree times closes long before we're ready. I typically feel this same way about Fair Week. Much like Halloween (even more so in my case), it is a week long trip back in time. I walk the grounds constantly recalling my feelings and memories of my childhood... my dread of the coming school year, balanced with a bit of excitement that I'll get to hang with my friends again. The search for that girl I had a crush on - hoping to catch a glimpse of her in a less controlled environment like school. The fun of riding the rides and the camaraderie of daring to experience them together with your buddy. All of that comes flooding back to me when Fair Week comes. Halloween gives me similar feelings, though the actual event provides me far fewer days of memories, since it is one night of the year. But leading up to the event, there is still plenty to recall and revel in. So breathe it all in. Stop and just reminisce any chance you get. I know you will. | Forever Living in Halloween | Sep 24, 2015 | |
| 2712 | Article | echidna64 | Great read onipar, thank you for sharing your memories and precious photos from your childhood! By the way, you totally look like Fred Savage in that one picture with your brother! | Forever Living in Halloween | Sep 24, 2015 | |
| 2711 | Article | Vaporman87 | That's a great story. It's always nice to hear of places opening up that try very hard to recapture the magic of a golden era. I wish them all the success in the world. In a place like Jacksonville there should be no shortage of customers, but around these parts such a place would probably have difficulty surviving. | Rescued By A Fistful of Quarters | Sep 24, 2015 | |
