If you like to celebrate Halloween
Eugene has a great deal to offer
Ail Hallows' Eve is a hol
iday rich in tradition
and history, including
huge bonfires to scare away
evil spirits and the return of
the recently dead to carouse
on earth once more before
moving on to another world
(See Halloween history, Page
10B)
These and many other old
traditions have led to the
creepiness surrounding our
Halloween celebration today
The toy of celebrating Hal
loween is often left to the
young, traveling door to door
for candy and junk food, sit
ting in a darkened room hear
ing tales of slowly creeping
spirits out to seek revenge, or
wandering through a haunted
house' putting their hands
into a bowl of brains' and
eyeballs' (peeled grapes and
cold, cooked spaghetti).
But while most adults'
may choose to stay at home
and give out candy or check
out a local club lor some mu
sic and laughs, there are still
those lor whom the bell tolls
each Halloween
The mtormation in the fol
lowing pages is mostly lor
those who find, lor whatever
the reason, that Oct. 31 is a
holiday to celebrate each and
every year
For many the lun ol Hal
loween is being able to dress
and act like a completely dif
lerent person It is a chance
to don a new persona,
to become the person
you have always
wanted to be or the
person you have al
ways hated It's a
chance to go wild and
let it all go.
Finding the right
costume is halt the
battle Your costume
should empower you,
it should make you
feel like a new per
son (See costume
store listing Page
3B).
But once your
dressed, what then?
You need to find the
right spot to show
yourself off For some people
it’s a party at a friends house.
Bui because Halloween often
falls on a weekmght the par
ties are usually held on the
weekends, leaving a void on
Halloween night
Well fear not There are
many clubs and hang outs in
the Eugene/Springfield area
that sponsor annual Hallow
een parties (See calendar.
Page 9B) Music ranges from
rock'n'roll to rhythm and
blues
Many of these night spots
are also sponsoring costume
contests Categories range
from the best Simpson family
member lookalike to simply
the best costume of them all
Some of the prizes are quite
hefty, like a trip to Hawaii.
(See contests, Page 9).
Finally for those who are
simply attracted to Halloween
because of its association
with fear and creepdom, there
are some good new and re-re
leased horror movies at the
theaters. The classic The
Rocky Horror Picture Show
will be running Halloween
night at the Bijou Arts Cine
ma. If you've never seen it this
would be a good time to catch
it, because Halloween is it's
final showing. (See movie list
ing and review. Page 5).
