Getting a nice Halloween costume together can be expensive. You don’t have to tell me, I know that fact all too well.

Halloween, as we all know by now, is a holiday that’s been around since the ancient Celts, who used to celebrate the festival of Samhain to mark the end. Now it seems that this hallowed of all holidays is used to mark both the end of the harvest season and the beginning of the new season of “Desperate Housewives.” Not to mention a piss poor excuse for every adolescent girl to dress like a street walker. Hmmm, the last time I checked zebra print underwear and a pair of ear muffs does NOT a costume make! But alas I digress….
The Celts, according to old Irish folklore known as Wikipedia, believed that on Oct. 31 the line between The Living (us) and The Dead (Abe Lincoln, Socrates, Jimi Hendrix) dissolves. While it seems far-fetched that the dead could return, it does explain many mysteries such as Larry King, Regis Philbin and John McCain. But the Celts did not think fondly of The Dead and believed that the deceased did not return to the land of the living to host our talk shows, game shows or to run for president

With Halloween fast approaching we have spoken a few times about the preparation involved involved with it all. There are three, count ‘em, three different BuyCostumes.com promo codes currently available that will allow us anywhere from 10%-25% off ! Most recently I mentioned my burning desire of painting my one month old son blue and having him go as the baby Krishna. I even mentioned this to my mother-in-law not more than two day ago.

Her response? “I do not think we will be doing that!”

Boy oh boy did I have to hold back a biting response. After all, in what world does she exist where she thinks she gets any say in this whatsoever?

I took a deep breath and decided to let it go…family wars over silly issues such as infant Halloween costumes are not my style. I’ll just pick a really wicked one for myself.

When I was a young child, there were a vast slew of really incredible Star Wars costumes and masks released. They were incredible, totally looked like the real thing and I was utterly fascinated by them. I think it is more than high time I relieved some childhood dreams

I saw a band this week by the name of Sunn O))). This was the first time I had seen them, though I had heard stories. Through a heavy haze of smoke and dim lighting they took the stage in black hooded robes. The vocalist once he made his appearance really took the cake however. His getup is pretty hard to explain, but he looked for all the world like some sinister pagan tree god. The whole thing was very visually striking, and not a little tongue in cheek.

The vocalists costume though, it totally reminded me of similar tree creature costume I owned as a youngster. I loved it. I wanted to wear it all the time, much to my mother’s dismay. This just a day after seeing this person on the Venice boardwalk in another costume that was a variation of the sinister tree theme. You see so many people wait for Halloween exclusively to get their costume on, but I’m starting to think that for those in the know, you can get away with strutting around in a tree costume several times a week. This idea sounds all the more exciting to me when I couple it with the discounts I’ll find thorough these wide array of BuyCostumes Coupons.

Haunted Tree Costume Scare off anyone who dares to enter the haunted forest. If they don’t heed your warning, let them suffer their imminent DOOM! This Haunted Tree costume includes a robe with attached warning signs and headpiece. Shoe covers that make it look as if the roots are going into the ground, and gloves with finger tips that look like creeping tree branches are also included. $39.99
