I had a mate who crept up on me while i was night fishing alone … Around 3am … He was wearing a cloth type potato sack on his head and carrying a big **** off knife and ran towards me screaming Since then I haven't found anything I am afraid of and to those you claim they would do this or do that if comforted by a similar thing I say bollocks … you freeze on the spot IMO
Very honest and agree. I was assaulted at work years ago. Always thought I could handle myself but I froze too. Apart from that, hilarious story!!
I remember as a kid a group of Mummers once visiting our house and putting on a performance, a little play with musical accompaniment. please log in to view this image http://bojanfurst.com/?tag=mummers
Wow, l do that at Xmas, Easter and just about every week of the year so noting new for me here. Besides, here in Oz, we basically have resisted Halloween for ever and a day but just over the last year or two, it seems to have made it big here. We don't need this crap or am l just an old fart? Of course, this old fart is going to see the grandson tonight ............. to go Halloween walking / knocking on doors! I don't know whether to put on a stupid outfit or dress up as a security guard in case there is an 'all in fight' for the lollies!
I bought a 'Scream' mask and had a black cloak and was ready for the little bastards last year but they never knocked!...
having said that as a 14 year old I loved t or t knocking on doors with eggs in one hand and fireworks in the other always got you lots of sweets and cash t and t in the eighties better known as demanding money with menaces
A couple of years ago we rigged up a scream mask onto a giant Mickey Mouse cuddly toy thing. we tied a rope around it's feet and waited at a window above the front door. While one person went to the door to talk to the little darlings, someone else suddenly dropped the "demon" seemingly from out of the night sky towards the screaming kids. It really did petrify them! Gave us hours of fun!
Some great stories on here, glad I'm not the only miserable git...... Fortunately since last year we have installed gates to stop the little bast...darlings coming up to the door, failing that a door mat that says "Feck Off" normally works......
Lol, Here in Reading the local yoof do it a little differently. You get stoned teenagers knocking at the door. They will grunt at you "Trick or treat ennit!" Well it should really be called treat or vandalism, your car is not safe if they don't get their way.
If any stoned yoof knok on my door they will soon F-off, why?When I answer the door I will be wearing my pink mankini... Lol, only kidding but that's a sure way to stop them coming back..
He's right, an irish and Welsh thing that emigrated to the US and came back here. Protestant as well of course, Catholic countries do nice things on October 31 like buy candles and flowers ready to place on the graves of their relatives who have passed away. Halloween is just the whispers of Satan for the weak and gullible.
