We love looking at all the costumes. People take this seriously and the costumes are creative and many are quite unique.
I could tell a funny story about this picture but I don't want to embarrass someone. If you see me you can ask me. |
Even dogs wore costumes. |
Halloween ghosts were strung across the street. |
This guy loved posing for us. |
This guy also asked if I got his picture okay. |
This is hard to see, but the mad scientist shot ghosts of candy out of the cannon. |
I wonder if they are all related. |
Even jelly fish! |
And of course, a little princess! |
The sun was there. The moon was too. |
These were the judges for the costumes. |
Some houses along the parade route are decorated. This one had entertainment on the porch. |
A grandfather clock. |
These people were over the top with their yard....strobe lights, | an electric chair and quite a little ham in the chair. |
There were a couple of grave yards with humorous tombstones, for example: "Claire Voyant. She didn't see it coming." |
Great carved pumpkin display. |
Big bird carried a sign saying "Save me". (no comment) |
From the porch of this building, Boosilini makes announcements and encourages the children to yell for candy as he throws some out to the crowd. There is also a screaming contest. |
The Great Boosilini! |
I am still learning how to use my camera especially at night. I used the flash to be able to capture the wonderful costumes, but it takes away the ambiance.
You cannot see the candle burning in this jack o'lantern, so I took a picture without a flash. Below is the result.
These are only a sample of the many characters we saw. Great fun for all ages. Good job, Collinsville!
