Halloween (extract from Wikipedia): “The ancient Gaels believed that on October 31, now known as Halloween, the boundary between the alive and the deceased dissolved, and the dead become dangerous for the living by causing problems such as sickness or damaged crops. The festivals would frequently involve bonfires, into which bones of slaughtered livestock were thrown. Costumes and masks were also worn at the festivals in an attempt to mimic the evil spirits or placate them.”

So what happens in New York? every single girl I speak to is dressing up as a slut. Most aren’t even doing “sexy witch” or “scantily clad vombie”, but are going straight for the “slutty nurse” or “slutty army officer” or my favourite “Slutty Slut”. 

That all said, all the slutty sluts do look pretty cool, and can loosely be defined as “evil spirits” so I don’t know what I am complaining about. I was thinking of just going as a “murderer”. Just in my normal clothes.
