Hallowe’en

Or All-Hallows-Eve. Fun time. I associate it, like almost everybody else, with wearing delightful costumes, or absolutely dreadful ones, collect candy, get sugar high, tell scary stories, and howl at the moon. As I’ve grown older, the collecting candy part has become, setting out candy and cringing at the colorful sugary things that kids reach for. But otherwise it’s remained quite the same!

I don’t necessarily do all of the traditional Halloween stuff mainly because I can’t stand horror movies – talking about horror stories is fine by me. Tell me or make me the story of an axe murderer or a headless horseman, I’m fine with it. Make me watch the movie, I’ll scream in terror and jump out the window. I just make do with creepy books – the classic creepy books I mean – and creepy music, neither of which fail to send shivers down my spine.

Keeping with the spirit of the season, here’s one of my scribbles done on a yellow Post-it. Random, as always, but with something meaningful in it. To me, each of the faces represents something or someone :) I can’t recall what or who, but I know there was something to it.

    • I was a Greek Goddess :) I didn’t go out trick-or-treating – as much fun that would’ve been – but did give out treats!!
      Remember that weird vampire makeup I put on for you the year before last??? :D LOL!!

  1. Happy Halloween, rather belated! Oh and I love the sketch – its adorable! You know, I have this habit of creating people in my head, and do a little bit of a doodle of them! Sometimes its inspired by people I know, sometimes, its just off my head, and other times, its a combo-special! :D I like these little stories that I make of them, and surprisingly, it makes for a great memory much much later :) Your sketch here interestingly reminds me of that!

    Keep writing! Halloween or not, it most definitely is a treat to read! :)

    • Creating characters is so much fun!! :) I like to give each of them a story, especially when these characters are a figment of my imagination. But what’s even more cool is that when I actually draw them, they feel so real!
