Halloween in Limerick

krudler

Anyone got any plans? The bangers have started going off around town already which is a pain, aside from the amount of scumbaggery that goes on I've had some great nights out in town the past few years,I actually look forward to Halloween more than Christmas these days, although the best place to be for it is the US, they go nuts over there for it

Think I'll be spending the night itself in Dublin, but I'm looking forward to a few Halloween themed nights out here too

Already starting to sound like Operation Iraqi Freedom here and it is a week night, three weeks from Hallowe'en.

Comes in a kit you buy online, theres different types depnding on accuracy, plastic type etc, theres a whole online community of people who build replica armour called the 501st Legion, huge star wars nerds but unbelievable costumes , also for ideas check out the replica prop forum: www.therpf.com the Iron Man suits on there are insane

I was lookin at Ironman suits before, they're crazy! have you seen The limerick huys predator suit? If he comes out with us this year, I might as well not bother.

I put together a pretty decent Indiana Jones costume last year, might just use it again this year as I dont have the money to put together something else and dont like store bought costumes, and yeah the Iron Man suits are nuts,who wouldnt want to walk around town dressed like this :

Hope you have a strong bladder wearing that thing.

This is great.



There are worse out there. Google Tampon Halloween Costume for a shock. :eek:

That is awesome

The one that stands out for me is this costume. I suppose its up to personal opinion if you find it darkly funny or offenseive.

I have to admit if found it so tasteless it was funny like those baby jokes, ya know baby in a microwave etc. lol...

That is both genius yet twisted at the same time, some of the best costumes are the simplest ones, my flatmate is thinking of going as Patrick Bateman this year, suit, plastic rain jacket from pennys, toy axe, smear face with blood, boom instant American Psycho costume

After being in Trinity Rooms dressed as the Hulk and the only other person dressed up in the entire nightclub is my mate dressed as God next to me. I dont think I will do it again.
This was about 3 years ago now. We had fun, but man the lack of effort in town was depressing. I spent hours to look like I did.

last year EVERYONE was out in costume, and it will be the same this year, its really caught on in the last 2 years. trust me on this.

krudler

Depends on the night really, we went out on the 27th 2 years ago and there was a few people, 31st last year and it was mobbed with costumes, mostly girls in "sexy" versions of witches and cats and maids and what have you, the usual cliches, there were some awesome costumes out though, although this year if some drunk ****er tries to take either my hat or whip they'll get a dig, quite why drunk people think its funny to whip a hat off your head is beyond me
