Dress your little one as Jeffrey Dahmer this Halloween
The last few years I've dressed up as Carrie in the famous horror movie. I had blood all over me. I take a whole crew of little kids trick-or-treating each year, and I slather fake blood over anyone who wants it
I'm not into the goody-two-shoes Halloween costumes where the boys go dressed as golden gourds and the girls are ballerinas.
One of my colleagues, Tim Collie, wants to talk to parents about this issue. Here's what he wrote to me:
I'm looking for parents to talk to me about the "gore line" -- where they would draw it in an age of Jason or Freddy Krueger masks, as well as all kinds of oozing grotesquries. I want them to compare Halloween for them as children, and Halloween now in these scare terms. My number is 954-356-4573, or they can email me (tcollie@sun-sentinel.com).
Will you help out a fellow reporter?
Thanks.
