X Rated Halloween

There are a group of us over at eXtasy with October releases and we wanted to do something fun, so we each asked three questions. Here are the three questions I asked and their answers! Feel free to answer them in the comments. 🙂

1.  If you could dress up as anyone for Halloween, who would it be?

Jambrea: I would dress up as Marilyn Monroe. There is just something sexy about her.

C.R.: Maharet or Jesse (characters from Anne Rice’s books) – Maharet because she’s one of the originals or Jesse because in the movie she gets to go off with Lestat. 

Laura: My husband.

Courtney: I would love to dress up as Jessica Rabbit, that hair and dress are awesome!

Angela: Marlene Dietrich from her Blue Angel days!  She absolutely oozed sexuality, could pull off masculine as well as feminine clothing, and always, always looked like a million bucks!

2.  Halloween costumes: Sexy or Scary? Which do you like better?

Jambrea: Sexy because I don’t usually dress sexy and it is one time of year where you can.

C.R: I’m getting back into horror writing (with romance/romantic elements) so I’d have to go with scary. Plus, I’m not a thin or girly-girl type woman so sexy doesn’t work with me. 

Laura: The ones that are so sexy they scare me.

Courtney: I like sexy for adult parties, scary for trick or treating.

Angela: Sexy all the way!  It’s always fun to see how far I can go before having to consider the obscenity laws in this neck of the woods!

3. Do you have any Halloween traditions? If so, what?

Jambrea: This is something my family started after my son was born. Every year my Mother-in-Law comes to town and we go trick or treating and then head home for dinner. Usually chili! lol

C.R.: Just started my tradition of meditation and reflection back in 2007.
Laura: None whatsoever. As I said, in Italy we don’t celebrate Halloween, rather All Hallows, which is a religious holiday, then All Dead, on Nov. 2^nd, another feast of the spirits that aren’t living anymore. On both days, traditions mainly involve religious rites (mass and such) and of course a visit to your dead ones.

Courtney: We usually trick or treat with the kids, other than that we just like to decorate the house and carve pumpkins.

Angela: I have two that are uniquely mine.  I collect pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns (ceramic, wood, glass, whatever) and I always display them in my house.  The other tradition I started about ten years ago, I bake Monster Cookies for my work mates.  The recipie calles for M&Ms and I use the black and orange special Halloween variety in the recipe instead of the usual multicolored.

 

We also have a trailer on YouTube for your viewing pleasure.  🙂
