Halloween draws near again and people are starting planning parties, making costumes and decorations. And what can be better as a HP-party, a cool costume allowing you to be your favourite character for one night and a house decorated as magnificently as the Great Hall? Or can it? wizard.gif

How do you usually celebrate Halloween? How much "Potter-taste" do you add to your celebrations? What's your favourite HP thing to do on Halloween night - dress up as a character, have a Potter-themed party, something else? Why? tonksemoxy3.gif

Which character are you going to dress up as? Why have you picked that particular one? hermione.gif

If you're planning on dressing up, maybe you've got some cool costume ideas that you'd like to share with others? If you're having trouble with your costume, feel free to ask for help here as well. thHagrid03emoticon.gif

Happy posting happy.gif

HP marathon, of course and some HP related treats. And this year, I shall do myself up as Bellatrix. As a real life Witch, this shouldn't prove too difficult to do. devil.gif

I'm dressing up subtly and going as Ron in Muggle clothing. wink.gif I'll know I'm dressed up, but I won't have to go out in public in a real costume (I'm very shy and self conscious).

Me? Why would you want to go as me?

Because you're extremely famous of course Ron rolleyes.gif

We don't celebrate Halloween much in our house. Harry doesn't like the associations and besides everywhere we go there are so many people dressed as 'the boy who lived' ... all those clones get a bit much lol.gif

But we do make sure to play one huge prank on George in Fred's memory.

Educational Decree number 999 entitles me to disrupt any Halloween festivity I like in my capacity as Hogwart's High Inquisitor!

Go on, you tell'em Professor! I'm right here behind you! I'll find those messy partygoers! Oh yes I will. Where's Mrs Norris? Dressing up you say? What is wrong with dressing as myself?

For the first time in my life, I'll be participating in something "halloween'ish":
Being on Leaky!
- checking out what's going on in here
- eating Treacle Tart (Just copied the receipe and will create a gluten- and sugar-free version) with LOTS of whipped cream MWOhahahaha
(take that! Dietist!)

I haven't been to a costume-party since 4. grade - we have "Fastelavn" in february, ending the fast (no idea why anyone would fast) of some kind!
None of my friends or family and only one single friend of my daughter's are HP-fans, so I will properbly never need a costume, unless ...
Saving money for traveling to a HP-event?
Have started, need plan, head spinning,
- brain (ups, I got one! - once) shutting down ... need bed! Want to be back tomorrow (in 4 hours it's sunday here)

mumbling: "see ya, Peevesey" and - "Snape, dear, I'll give you a kiss in the morning" - properbly in fever again by the sound of that!!! shocking.gif

I will probably not be doing anything hp themed special. I will probably just read Harry Potter and watch the movies like normal. I am to old to trick or treat my mom says so i will be passing candy out while reading HP instead and stealing some of my little brother & sister's candy when they go to bed. I think I will reread PoA; it was my favorite.

Last year I was Dumbledore (haha) and my boyfriend was Harry. I am going to be the Grey Lady this year and my boyfriend is going to be the Bloody Baron. I will watch the movies too all week. I love Halloween.
