Burglar Costume


For decades, the costumes have reflected our favorite television characters, movie stars, movie flicks and the like. But, the history of costumes goes back long before all these commercial-related themes came into style. Costumes first became popular 2 thousand years ago, during the ancient Celtic festival, Samhain. The Celts lived in what's now considered the United Kingdom, Ireland and northern France. Samhaim was their New Year celebration, but took place on November 1st. This date marked the end of the harvest time and the beginning of the cold season. They associated the winter, which is dark and cold, with death. They also believed that on that night, the boundary between the living and the dead was distorted. During the celebration, they wore costumes made of animal skins and heads. When the Romans conquered the Celts, their holiday Feralia, was combined with Samhain. Eventually, the tradition was combined with All-Hollows Day, or All Saint's Day. The night before was called All-Hallow's Eve, thus the name Halloween was born. Today, the tradition continue, primarily with synthetic costumes. All the things we associate with Halloween, dunking for apples, black cats, jack-o-lanterns, trick-or-treating, etc., came from the various types of people who celebrated Halloween and these traditions were passed on.

Everyone loves carmel apples. Simply melt carmel candies you buy in the store and dip them halfway into the carmel. You can dip the carmel in chopped nuts, too. Place them on a non-stick pan until the carmel sets and serve them on a plate with plastic eye balls, spiders and other bugs.

Decor:

You can create a great Halloween atmosphere without spending a lot of money. Decorate the outside of your home with bales of hay you can purchase at any farm. Top the hay with mums and pumpkins. Tie corn husks around the columns of your house or flank the doorway. Dim the lights in your home or shut them completely. Place candles near each window to create a spooky aura. Play spooky organ music outside your door. Pop a cd into your stereo and put a speaker near the window. You can even switch some of your light bulbs to black bulbs for a subdued glow.

So, get ready for some fun this year! And if you see other burglar costumes at your party, maybe they'll be mistaken for you and they'll be less for you to do!
