It’s beginning to look a lot like…. Halloween
So what are you doing this Halloween weekend? Dressing up? Eating sugar? Getting plastered on goblin juice?
Here are some ideas:
* The Houston Press is sponsoring their 2nd Annual Halloween Parade this Saturday, October 29th downtown. There will be a parade (starting at 8pm along Main St.), a costume contest with crazy-huge prizes and a KISS tribute band concert (8:45 at Market Square Park).
Make sure you use the Downtown Entertainment District’s validated parking program
* Downtown Ghost Walk Tour – We’ve posted about this before, but I have yet to check it out – PLUS! they’re handing out trick or treat bags with good food and drink coupons for the downtown area. Fun!
* Absolut Big Ass Halloween Bash – $20 tickets gets you free beer, jello shots and ‘witches brew’ at BUS (1800 Texas Ave). They too will have a costume contest with an interesting sticker vote method.
* Houston Haunts is a great website for haunted house reviews, tickets and local costume shop links.
Yes! I highly recommend the Big Ass Halloween Bash! I’ve been for the past two years. In 2003 I was Marge. Here’s a pic of me with Mo (my husband), Homer, comic book guy, and Patty and Selma behind us.
Last year I was Miss Butterface.
