The latter, with a blade. -- Well I'm dressing up as....scary Zorro! Basically just Zorro but scary, around my area (hehe) Halloween is just a night that you wear any costume and get drunk, nothing really behind it and much like a regular Friday night out in Newcastle...
I'm going as a generic anime character wearing a suit. All I need to do is get the anime hair down and I'm set. What? I'm lazy.
You could just say you're Spike Spiegel. Who knows, maybe you'll bump into one of the producers of the film.
Omnomnomnom, I <3 vanilla Al Capone's. I won't do anything, I've already seen enough Halloween stuff for the next century.
I haven't dressed up in years, but I certainly don't object to the skimpy outfits I've seen some ladies wearing recently, haha.
