answer to question no 2

when i was kid i loved Halloween, as i lived in the country and every one knew every one and we had no where to buy costumes, we made our own, we used a pillow case for the mask with the eyes , nose and mouth cut out, we had to find clothes that no one woulkd reconize as when we went to the houses they tried to guess who we where, so much fun, now i live to see the kids in all there costumes especially the little ones
