Halloween Hangouts and Cool Costumes


I have trolled the interwebz to help you find the coolest costumes for Halloween 2011. When you're all ghouled up you'll be ready to parrr-taay so I've also found the hottest  Halloween hangouts for this spooky season!

Halloween Hangouts

ALTON TOWERS SCAREFEST!
Grab you friends and dress up at Alton Towers this Halloween. Scare yourself on the fastest and best roller coasters like Nemesis, Rita, Air and Oblivion. Do you dare go on their newest ride, Thi3teen?? They are open till 9pm for extra spookiness! For real thrill seekers,  try their scary mazes (Boiler House + Carnival of Screams) Last Year was amazing, I have never screamed so much before, it was sooo much fun!  Alton Towers - Scarefest 2011



Scarefest 2010 Zombie Outbreak team
Monday Richard - Splicer / Tuesday Shanice - Vampire
Friday Voni - Pirate / Sunday Matt -  Jack the Ripper


THORPE PARK FRIGHT NIGHTS!
Go on your favorite rides from 10am to 10pm. That's top rides like Colossus, Nemesis Inferno and Stealth in the dark! Scare yourself on Se7en, SAW the ride, Saw Alive the live action maze, The Asylum and The Curse! New scary ride for 2011 is Experiment 10  where you journey through an old government test lab where their last experiment went terribly wrong. Beware of the mutated test victims as you experience your deepest, darkest phobias. You’ll be gassed, confined and left screaming for a way out of Experiment 10’s deadly grasp! As its their 10th Twisted Birthday this Halloween  expect a completely different type of fright night!   Thorpe Park - FRIGHT NIGHTS 2011



Costume Ideas
Be the most original this Halloween!Here's some ideas - cheap and easy to make !
Top Tips - tried and tested by me! 
  •  Fake blood/Skin Dye often stains so make sure you have lots of time to scrub it off the next day. Turning up to work with bloods stains may get funny looks. (Happened to me)
  • Remember to test Halloween make-up just in case your allergic. Do a patch test for 45mins on a hidden area a day or so before your event in case you need an alternative.
  • Charity shops have all kinds of clothes and accessories to help make your own unique costume and all for a great price/good cause!
  • Remember, most rides wont let you on if you have a mask or a large outfit that sticks out.
  • Flour, Food dyes and Cornstarch can be used to make your own make up.
  • Clip down wigs with lots of bobby pins.Very important if you're going to theme parks!
  • Wrap up warm.Wear lots of layers under your costume if your going to an outdoor event!
  • Be UNIQUE!

Zombies, Zombies, Zombies!
Fake blood and Halloween make up is all you need.You can make anything 'zombified'!
Nurses and students are most popular but you can turn anything into a cool zombie get up!

Going zombie is my usual go to if I'm desperate for a costume, I do it so well!

Also, that first Chucky outfit is quite terrifying...
