Happy Halloween! Now Hand Over the Candy

Hmmmm, now HERE'S an idea . . . .

There should be 

NO AGE DISCRIMINATION

on Halloween!

Every year, you have to be

MORE AND MORE CAREFUL

about what people do to the treats.

And then there's the asshats

who give out CRAPPY TREATS!

But "crappy" is in the

EYE OF THE BEHOLDER,

I guess . . . .

I've DESPISED

Kerr's Molasses Halloween Kisses

ever since eating one 60 years ago

after my first time trick-or-treating.

But back in those days,

our Halloween bags were always

FULL TO THE BRIM

with the goddamn things.

But, you know, there's 

WORSE THINGS TO DREAD

than Halloween Kisses --

This Year's Costume Parade

Yowza, he's one fierce looking

little Wolverine!

Oh, Elton!

An effervescent costume!

For all of you who love to read --

Sometimes, simple is best.

And don't forget the pets!

Family costumes are great --

Another cute bumblebee

with beekeeper dads!

Hmmmm -- Mercury or Krueger?

BE BOTH!

And hey, I saved the best for last!

Bats, Bats, and More Bats

And speaking of cute . . . 

HRH's Halloween Post

Yes, my wee demons, it is I,

HER ROYAL HIGHNESS THE CAT,

here once again to celebrate

ALL THINGS FELINE

in the month of October.

Like ALL cats, I LOVE this time of year!

We cats COME INTO OUR OWN at Halloween --

ALL OF US!

We are SEASONAL MUSES . . .

. . . and ARTISTS of the MACABRE!

I predict a SPOOKY HALLOWEEN this year!

Now BUZZ OFF, I'm busy.

Well, 'Tis the Season

a

The Addams Family

I love the Addams Family, no matter in which format they appear -- the original New Yorker cartoons by their creator Charles Addams, the TV live-action series, the TV/movie animations, and the several recent live-action movies. Each character is a wonderfully macabre outsider, ready to subvert conventional morality at the drop of a hat.

Cool Ice-cold, calm and collected Morticia is a particular favourite of mine!

But I also have a soft spot for her oversexed, swashbuckling husband Gomez!

Needless to say, Her Royal Highness the Cat is a fan as well!

My favourite Addams child is, of course, the delightfully homicidal Wednesday. That's why I'm so happy about the new upcoming 8-episode Netflix series Wednesday which will premiere (fittingly enough) on Wednesday, November 23! Morticia is going to be portrayed by Catherine Zeta-Jones (!), Gomez by Luis Guzmán, and Wednesday by Jenna Ortega.

The series looks terrific, judging from these first two trailers! Half of the episodes are directed by Tim Burton in his signature creepy style.

Anyone else planning on watching?
