One more day ’til Halloween! Hopefully you all have your costumes already. Starting this year I’m going to start my campaign to make October 30th the “funny/sexy” Halloween night, and October 31st the “scary” Halloween night. Sexy nurses and Super Mario Bros and celebs and costumes with sexual puns aren’t exactly what Halloween is for, though costumes like those can be creative, so let’s split them up! I would love to go to a Halloween party that looks like the “Thriller” video. That would be grand. Who’s in? I’ll have a petition up soon (for next year, of course).

Well I thought it was a good toast.
I second the vote for a scary Halloween and an everything-else-Halloween.
Awesome! Petition up soon, seriously.

The best thing is that the zombie is still drooling at the alien’s brain as if nothing had happened…
He’s just waiting for the alien to put his guard down…

Wow, Edmund was quite verbose in that speech. Must be some potent witches brew he’s been guzzling. Oh … and another great mouse-over punchline.
Witch’s Brew, that reminds me, I need to go get some “Hobgoblin Ale” and “Dead Guy Ale” to celebrate the season. Off to the store! (it’s good stuff, both of them)

Love the mouseover.
Unfortunately they do not do Halloween where I live. 
Ah, that’s unfortunate, Halloween is grand! Looks like I’d be the lone person celebrating if I ever lived overseas.

It would make more sense for 1st of November to be sexy halloween since it’s All Saints’ Day and it’s when the good things come out
I did consider that, but since Halloween is so closely associated with October, I think it would be harder to catch the idea on if one of the nights were moved into November. Would make more sense, though.
So the way I’m thinking of it, is that the “funny” night is the build-up, and the “scary” night is the climax!

And that’s why ghosts get a bad rap
If horror movies tell us anything, they kind of bring it on themselves. Jumping out and scaring people is no way to go through life…er…death…

Did I just hear you say that you think Super Mario Brothers are sexy?? hmmmm.
Well, I don’t know about the Bros themselves, but the Princess? and Yoshi. And who know what those hockey-mask creatures look like behind the mask.

Those ghost are always misinterpreted
Yeah, I’d hate to be a ghost. You’re always misinterpreted, and also you’re dead.

Does anyone have a Ghost to English Dictionary?
They’re hard to come by. You have to know of a haunted bookstore first.

I don’t know what the big deal about Halloween is. I put on costumes and become different people all year.
Were you by any chance the Abraham Lincoln that was stealing people’s groceries out of their cart today at the store? If so, screaming the Gettysburg Address was a little over-the-top.

Pure comedic genius, Dan!
Thanks George! I was on the fence on whether or not to do this one, but it looks like it got a good reception (whew!)

“…almost none of whom tried to eat me…”
That should be a compulsory line in all toasts…!
I would love it if people slipped in into serious speeches around the country, and posted them on YouTube. Focusing in on the confused expressions in the crowd, whispering to each other, wondering if they heard that right. It would be swell.

Happy Halloween to all the lovers of the weird and strange. Particular Dan, who needs to lay off the candy corn before it sends him even further over the top. Keep up the great work, I really enjoy this comic strip.
Thanks sir! That’s a good toast in itself. I’m afraid, though, it’s impossible for me to lay off Halloween treats. Time to go to the store to get more now…

As a lady who went to a really cool party dressed as the dead undertaker who woke up, embalmed himself, and went back to work, I would LOVE to sign that petition. Between the tux and the gloves, the only skin I had showing was that of my face, made up so it really looked like I had no pulse. And as a woman possessed of dignity and self-respect, I am sick to death of the awful glut of sexually tilted costumes, because nearly none of them are clever, and all strike me lamentably crass and classless. And as for seeing all those pre-teen girls dressed in slutty little dresses, no printable words can really condemn that sort of thing vehemently enough to suit me. For all the ghouls, ghosts, monsters, witches, mad scientists, zombies, werewolves and the vast legions of the rest of the Halloween damn’d, I am truly dedicated to the cause of Bringing Back Scary! Props to you, sir. You are my kind of righteous dude!
I hear ya! I’ll let you know when the petition is up and running.
