It seems like every year that passes that Halloween cannot be crammed with enough goodness, if only it went for a week. Could you imagine 7 nights of festive feast at dinner and marathons a go-go on the television? and then the last night we all dress up and have fun being scary and roaming the streets. Ah, ..one day.
Until then I wish you all a very happy Halloween. I will be spending the night collecting the dead, it might seem so fitting but really smelling a rotting corpse or trying to move it from a tight spot is not that much fun if Id rather be eating too much candy, having a halloween feast and dressing up in something retarded to enjoy my outdoor couch and music to commemorate the event. Hold up! wait a minute, everyone else can enjoy the night, so here it is the HUGE HALLOWEEN HORROR SPECIAL, with easy recipes, music to download and blast from your speakers and lots more to enjoy either in or out of the house.
Lets enjoy the horrors of the night, after-all its the only night that we can put on a balaclava and ask the neighbors to hand over their candy without getting in a paddy wagon!

Simple Halloween Recipes!
I bought a coffin pan from Wilton and made these coffin brownies
tonight. I got 5 coffins out of one pouch of Ghirardelli Brownie mix. I
filled them with prepared cherry pie filling and think they look
fantastic. I am going to label them Bloody Coffins.It is called 6-cavity Coffin Desert Shell Pan. I think it would make great strawberry shortcake too. I only got 5 coffins made from the one pouch of mix. I bought a 4-pouch box from Sam's Club. I think I could maybe fill the coffins a little less and get 6 coffins out of the mix if I was careful filling them because I did have to cut off the bottoms where they rose above the pan too much. I will be making these at my 2nd annual Halloween Bash on Devil's Night this year. I think Wilton does have a skeleton mold for chocolate, I just do not own one.

~Top Halloween Party Films~
Don't know what to put on when the lights are dim, the
candy is surrounding you and the time calls to put on a flick. But on Halloween
you can't just put on any Slasher, Horror film or TV Special. When you have
friends over it's also another thing to keep everyone entertained and happy. I
know from past experiences that not all people like the same thing. Halloween
should be full of Halloween themed, inspired and fitting films, the ones that
stand out and let the girls scream, Here is to you the Best (and in no special
order) HALLOWEEN FILMS for your party:
Trick R Treat (2007)
easily one of the best Halloween themed horror movies ever
made. An anthology similar to Creepshow it’s a fantastic tale of
vampires, werewolves, serial killers and evil spirits. Starring Anna
Paquin who has since gone onto fame with True Blood it’s a fantastic
movie that absolutely every fan of Halloween or horror films should be
watching. This movie above all others is the must see movie for
Halloween. Hands down, no competition!
Halloween (1978)
A Halloween night turns deadly when a former child murderer escapes from the mental hospital and returns to his small hometown to terrorize a babysitter. Soon her friends start disappearing one by one….

Night of the Living Dead (1968)
This black-and-white film can still disturb you to death. You’ll cross your fingers for the group of people who hide in a farmhouse, trying to avoid being killed by the dead who have come back to life.

The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
A ghoulish tale with elements of horror, fantasy, musical, and comedy all rolled into one stunning animated film. You’ll watch with morbid fascination as the Pumpkin King of Halloweentown stumbles into Christmastown and tries to take over Christmas by kidnapping Santa!

It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966)
Dubbed by a critic as one of “the most sincere of all Halloween specials,” this classic should not be missed. How can you let Halloween pass without a sneak peek at the Peanuts gang searching for the best trick-or-treating costumes and other Charlie Brown-style antics?

Three witches (played by Sarah Jessica Parker, Bette Midler and
Kathy Najimy) return 300 years after being hung for their spellwork in
17th-century Salem, Massachusetts. This
over-the-top comedy has witchcraft, black cats, and lots of laughs, and
it's sure to make your Halloween a blast!
Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride (2005)
follows a young man’s love for a woman
that brings him on a journey through the underworld. When he is about to
marry his lovely bride, he takes a trip down to the woods and finds
himself married to a corpse in the underworld instead.
They're creepy and they're kooky, they're all together ookie ...
so they're perfect for Halloween! If Wednesday (played by Christina Ricci), the disturbed
Addams daughter, doesn't creep you out, then Thing (who's just a hand)
definitely will!
A parody of Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein,
Frederick, the grandson of the famous mad scientist, inherits his
estate and continues his experiments. Instead of building a new creature
with a "genius" brain, however, he accidentally uses an "abnormal" one.
The monster gets loose several times, and eventually falls in love with
Frederick's wife, Elizabeth, who loves him in return. They live happily
ever after, obviously.
The Shining (1980)
Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of Stephen King’s novel could quite possibly be one of the scariest films of all time. The bone-chilling movie is based in an isolated hotel where Jack Nicholson and his family have moved in as caretakers for the winter. What follows is a ghostly encounter with a former hotel custodian who murdered his wife and two daughters.
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
Director John Landis took an unconventional approach to the werewolf subject by creating this horror-comedy hybrid. This Halloween movie features tongue-in-cheek humor alongside terrifying images of werewolves and mutant Nazis and Eye candy for the Ladies
The Craft (1996)
A newcomer to a Catholic prep high school falls in with a trio of outcast teenage girls who practice witchcraft, and they all soon conjure up various spells and curses against those who even slightly anger them. It's like a more creepy version of Mean Girls.
Monster Squad (1987)
Reminiscent of the daring Goonies before them, the kids of The Monster Squad attempt to retrieve a magical amulet, fighting off a domination-seeking Dracula and his frightening minions. Great special effects and witty writing have made this flick a cult favorite.
Creepshow (1982)
Written by Stephen King, the five short films in Creepshow are inspired by E.C. Comics from the 1950s and use comic-book conventions such as story panels and exaggerated lighting to dramatize tales of peril. Soaking wet zombies, plant mutations, and a cockroach infestation are “guaranteed to make you laugh as much as they’ll make your skin crawl,” says Ponder.
Monster Club (1981)
A writer of horror stories is invited to a "monster club" by a mysterious old gentleman. There, three gruesome stories are told to him; between each story some musicians play their songs. In the end, it's recognized he's the greatest monster of all
Waxwork (1988)
A wax museum owner uses his horror exhibits to unleash evil on the world.
Slither (2006)
In this blend of the B movie classic The Blob, and some Romero's zombies film, a meteorite collides in a small town. Grant finds it, and is infected by a parasite worm, which installs in his brain and causes him a creepy transformation into a monster. Starla, his wife, and Bill, a policeman, will try to stop him and the plague of worms generated by the creature.
Night of the Demons (1988)
On the night of Halloween, 10 teens decide to go to a party at an abandoned funeral parlor. "Hull House", rumored to be built on an evil patch of land & underground stream, is the place. While starting the party, the teens gather around a big mirror to perform a seance...BIG MISTAKE. They awaken some evil force and find themselves trapped and taken over one by one.
Return of the Living dead (1985)
When a bumbling pair of employees at a medical supply warehouse accidentally release a deadly gas into the air, the vapors cause the dead to re-animate as they go on a rampage through Louisville, Kentucky seeking their favorite food, brains.
Braindead / Dead Alvie (1992)
A young man's mother is bitten by a Sumatran rat-monkey. She gets sick and dies, at which time she comes back to life, killing and eating dogs, nurses, friends, and neighbors.

Directed by Stuart Gordon
