Dracula VS Cookie Monster
Castle Dracula will be a mess of cookie crumbs and blood tonight. Tough choice for 70’s parents, huggable old cookie monster or a plush lord of the undead? Nowadays Drac would be a big seller at Hot Topic.
Super Halloween
I’ve never really grasped the concept of a superman mask, his costume should most likely just include a wig with a spitcurl.
