Halloween 4 U

CastleVania fans are out and about on October 31st, however, only a select few let their CV heritage show in their Halloween guises. Here are the stories of those who've done so! How about you? Tell me about it! {I'll be coming in with the pointy brackets to offer my comments.}

If you're just tuning in: In 1991, I went to a friend's party as the Grim Reaper from CastleVania 1. In 1995, during my Super NES Dracula X craze, I was fully equipped as the latest Belmont to hit mainland shores, Richter. In 1996, I was the Alien from the trilogy (...not exactly a CV character, though it's made numerous Konami appearances). In 1997, I was the Skull Knight from CastleVania III! (Too bad the getup wasn't so great...)

Jason Gaines was a Grim Reaper, as you can see killing (E)Richter Belmont above in 1995.

"I was reading about the costume section in the miscellaneous section and thought you'd want to know, I was the Grim Reaper two years ago {1997} ...pretty cool... But last year {1998}, a friend and I (who naturally looks like Richter) were Richter and Simon for Halloween! We asked people for Drac's body parts instead of candy but it didn't work... Fortunately, I bought one of those small toy hearts, an eye, and a rib beforehand. My costume included a real leather whip AND an actual morning star that I made myself and it's more than capable of beating the snot out of someone with. We also had ourselves stocked with as much stuff as possible: garlic, stakes, holy water, a dagger, and an axe... I'm trying to find a picture of us to send you... We would go to houses, ask for body parts, start a conversation with the house's owners, then get into arguments over which of us was the best vampire killer! We then went to a local mall, went to some goths (the kind that thinks Vampire: The Masquerade is real), and scared them away, getting us attention from people who were glad such an element was gone from their mall. After that, we realized that it is our destiny to become vampire hunters." {He also said that his friend and his others are starting a band called the Belmonts. He isn't officially in yet. Now this CV journey rates highly on my list...especially since it's the only real one on it! Ha! Anyway, keep, rather, START sending your 10-31's in!}

"I was an awesome Grim Reaper type dude for 1999........... Thas right. I was Death himself! I took an old black robe, tattered it with a knife and my bare hands (Mwe he he he), bought one of those HUGE packages of ketchup that look like cow hearts from McDonalds (Try it sometime) and poked a hole in it so it would bleed. I took a bent branch and a kiddie toy Katana sword blade, taped it onto the branch, and taped up the opposite end and scared the $*|t out 'o people. I rang the doorbell on some school bully's house and left the Ketchup pack there. A few seconds later (After I had concealed myself) there was a loud ear-peircing scream. THATS what Halloween is about. Later I found a dude dressed as Cound Drac from Symphony and we spent the entire night scarin' folks. I later beat the $*|t out of some dude dressed as John Morris and scared off Eric Lecarde by bashing 'Nny in the stomach, kicking him in the *ic*, and slashing his costume with my sharpened plastic scythe blade........Anyway, my name is Alex Stripling and I personnally think Slogra and Death are the two best CV characters EVER.???????????????????? Oh, my E-Mail address I will get to you LATER"
{Dang! Well done!}

For Halloween of 1999, John Baxter (from John+Audra's CV Page, THE SITE for the Vampire Killer) hit the town Belmont-style! In honor of his recent screen debut, his good pal Matt donned the garbs of Darth Maul! John sent in some pics of how it went down...

John Baxter...BELMONT STYLE!!! John Baxter Vs. Matt Maul John Belmont gets NAILED.

D'oh! Better luck next life!
