Halloween

“Seems like Americans just want it to be Halloween all year. The holiday just keeps getting more popular.”

“I live in New Orleans part of the year, and it's a really fun eating town. I bought two homes there, one to live in and one as an investment. They love to eat, drink and dress up in costumes. There are so many reasons to dress up - Mardi Gras, Halloween, Southern Decadence.”

“I've never seen 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre', I've never seen 'Halloween', I've never seen any of the 'Friday the 13ths.'”

“I stared into the man's lifeless eyes. His face was blue, but it could've been from the cold. His body was bloated, but he could've just been fat. None of this explained the crows lining up on the tree branch though. --The Body By the Tree”

“I think before 'Saw' came along, there really wasn't a movie franchise that actually went out there and said, 'We're going to come out with one every year during Halloween and make that our trademark.'”

“I like the original 'Halloween.'”

“My folks made me a Jawa costume for the Halloween after 'Star Wars' opened in '77.

“My junior year of college, I was Batman for a Halloween party.”

“I always loved Belle from 'Beauty and the Beast'. I always thought I looked like her, so I dressed like her for every Halloween.”

“The first Halloween was very well made. The second one was also well made, though I didn't like it as well as the first one. The third one had nothing to do with the series at all and perhaps shouldn't have been made at all.”

“It's said that All Hallows' Eve is one of the nights when the veil between the worlds is thin - and whether you believe in such things or not, those roaming spirits probably believe in you, or at least acknowledge your existence, considering that it used to be their own. Even the air feels different on Halloween, autumn-crisp and bright.”

“It has always been my aim to live everyday like Halloween by celebrating individuality and creative freedom within a world of horror.”

“If we want a healthier, more diverse market - and more variety in our Halloween buckets - we could start by reviving some of our antitrust laws.”

“I was offered a choice of a flat salary up front or a percentage of the film's future earnings. I took the up front money. Nobody could have figured what Halloween would ultimately become.”

“I actually have a stash of wigs for Halloween. But only for that. Not to play dress-up.”

“I was kind of a dark kid. I loved Halloween, and I loved vampires and the black and white old monster movies.”
