halloween pics!!

Dan Wilson from Joggers and Jaclyn as ghosts

Kathy from Thermals as Billie Holiday. The creepy thing was she was followed by this ghost all night...

Speaking of creepy here's Joe Kelly from Panther as a Douchebag. It was terrifying. Also there is Jay from 31 Knots as Phyllis Diller. Note this is pre-ghost Jaclyn. She must have been killed right after that.

Douchebag and GG Allin aka Panther

I cut my hair so I went as a mod. I think people mostly thought I wasn't dressed up. Next year, Snoopy!
