Last night’s Halloween costume: Rosemary Woodhouse and the devil who impregnated her (please note the tiny devil-baby claw-hand poking through Rosemary’s dress) at the Chicago History Museum:
And, as a special “bonus feature,” my costume from two years ago (me-as-Norman-as-Mother):

You and your wife look awesome in that photo:) The choice of you and your wife to go as the devil and Rosemary was very clever:) Ditto for that arm you mentioned:) the two drink glasses also adds a humorous tone:) Ditto for your Norman Bates mother costume from Psycho as well. One of the things I love the most about Halloween is the horror films. And those costumes pictured were from two really great films “Rosemary’s Baby” and “Psycho” plus I just love the horror genre; as mentioned before it is my first personal favorite genre with the western in second place. BTW what event were you and your wife attending in that first picture; looks pretty cool:)

Thanks, John. She’s the real horror movie buff. I never even dressed up for Halloween until I met her.
The event we attended was the Chicago History Museum’s Halloween Ball. It was a lot of fun. I highly recommend it. In addition to the costumes, drinks, etc., they had actors from the Steppenwolf theater telling ghost stories throughout the night.

Oh my god that sounds like a fantastic experience. Did you know that Chicago actor William Petersen was a member of the Steppenwolf theater:)
