I just spied this Bettie Page costume, new for Halloween this year. The Submariner Bettie Page! Not bad at all. It does look sexy, but I’m not sure how comfortable it would be to walk around in.
There are so many Bettie Page fans, I’m sure this costume will sell very well this Halloween.
Here’s a few artist renderings of Bettie Page as a mermaid. Very, very cool!

Zombies!
This October, Woody Harrelson will kill lots and lots of zombies. Wow, this looks really funny and, well, GOOD. I mean, Bill Murray plays a zombie, how cool is that?
Here are a few promotional stills from the movie. I think it’s great to see Woody Harrelson back in action.

Yesterday, Twitter was buzzing with excitement after Costume Craze released photos of their new Robot Chicken masks. I think they look pretty cool! A full overhead latex mask for $30 isn’t a bad price at all.
I’m also impressed with several homemade Robot Chicken costumes I found by doing a little snooping around the Web. These costumes are excellent and you can tell a lot of care and work went into making them.
Robot Chicken is such a funny show. It’s alive!

LOL, look at this Jabba the Hut Costume! It’s been making the rounds on the Internet today, and most people seem to think it’s really, really bad.
It’s for sale at shopncsx.com for $70.90. Here’s the description:
Become one of the richest gangsters of a Galaxy Far, Far Away with the Jabba the Hutt Supreme Edition Costume! This full-body costume will transform you into the famous Hutt with a body piece (complete with tail), headpiece, and a battery-operated fan to keep you cool.
Well, it does look like it would be hot to wear, so that’s cool it comes with a fan. But yeah, it’s not the best costume I’ve ever seen, LOL!

No, you are not looking at drawings of stick people. These are in fact a new kind of costume, one I predict will become HUGELY POPULAR this year.
What you are seeing are the new GlowMan and GlowGirl costumes available at Costume Craze.
These costumes have custom glow sticks attached, and when activated, they glow brightly in the dark and make you look like a stick figure! It’s really cool!
To get the full effect, watch this video below. I totally love this idea!

The WWE RAW recently broadcast a Diva Costume Contest to celebrate Halloween.
In the true spirit of Halloween, the women wrestlers dressed in costume and then proceeded to beat each other up. Here are a few photos of their costumes and also a video clip from the broadcast.
PARAMUS, N.J. (CBS) - West Brook Middle School students celebrated Halloween last Friday by wearing costumes to school. But 13-year-old Alex Woinski was kicked out for showing up in a Jesus costume. Alex has long brown hair and bears a striking resemblance to Jesus, his friends say.
According to the school principal, his costume was offensive to some students, and this was the first time any student had dressed like Jesus.
“I don’t think I overreacted,” Principal Joan Broe told CBS news.
CLICK HERE to watch the CBS news video.
What do you think? Is the costume offensive? Did the principal overreact? Feel free to share your opinions in the comments below.
So, did everyone have a good Halloween? For the folks in Grand Rapids, Michigan, it was killer.
Over 3,000 zombies gathered in the streets, apparently breaking a world record. This is awesome.
Video Blogger Brigitte Dale has some helpful advice regarding social situations at a costume party. She also shows off her costume, which is incredibly simple but somehow she makes it work. Her video blogs are fun, enjoy!
Most Halloween stories are usually scary…and fictional. How about some amusing true Halloween stories for a change? These real accounts were sent in to Reader’s Digest. LOL!
Playing With Fire
Firefighters are required to wear their full bunker gear on all safety calls, even to advise homeowners of a county ordinance against burning leaves after dark. One Halloween, two fire workers waited on the porch of one such offending household, helmets in hand, until a woman finally opened the door. Promptly dropping a candy bar into each helmet, she remarked, “You boys are a little old for this sort of thing, aren’t you?” and closed the door.
Picture This
For Halloween, one child wanted to be the The Incredible Hulk. Using food coloring and a washcloth, his hands, face, neck and blond hair were dyed the same green shade of the TV monster. After his bath the next morning, a faint green tint still remained. As he was heading out the door for school, the child handed his mother a note he’d forgotten to give her the day before. The mother quickly opened the note to find, with dismay, that school pictures were going to be taken that day.
Right place, Wrong time
On Halloween night a driver called a road-service dispatch office complaining that he was locked out of his car. The dispatcher forwarded the information to a locksmith, along with one more detail: The car was parked at a nudist colony. Of course, the locksmith arrived in record time. But when he called the dispatch service later to report, he wasn’t amused. “Figures,” he said. “I finally get to go to a nudist colony, and they’re having a costume party!”
