- Sneak up to the door, ring the bell, and then hide in the bushes, leaving only a Trick or Treat bag, an empty pair of tennis shoes, and a sign reading “Sorry – Got Raptured.”

DUCT TAPE COSTUMES
13. Duck tape a small child or midget to your back and go as a “hunch-backed-two-headed guy.” (If you can’t locate a child or midget, decapitate a department store mannequin, duck tape its head to your shoulder, and go as “The Thing with Two Heads”).
12. Modern Metallic Mummy: cover yourself head to toe in duck tape and speak in inaudible groans. Feeling old fashioned? Go with white duck tape.
11. “Wizard of Oz” Tin Man: Simply follow the instructions for the mummy costume but don’t duck tape over your face. Instead, put a funnel on top of your head and carry around a duck tape covered oil can and axe.
10. Duck Tape Man: Use duck tape to fashion a mask and cape, cover an old pair of tights (or long johns) with duck tape for the pants, make a big duck tape “D” on the front of your shirt, and break the ice with other party goers by sticking a swatch of duck tape on everyone you meet!
9. The Human Shower: Don a raincoat, then use an old broomstick to help duck tape a Hula-Hoop™ over your head. Add showerhead and shower curtain to the Hula-Hoop™.
8. Wear something pink or minty green, Duck tape a shoe to your head, and go as “Used Gum.”
7. Duck tape over your puffy down ski jacket and go as a baked potato! (Don’t forget the dallop of sour cream on your head – created, of course, with white Duck tape.)
6. Take the lid of a shoe box, cut a one inch by six inch slit in the middle of it and tape it to your head so your eyes look out of the slit. You are now the bouncer at a speak easy! “What’s the password?”
5. Black pants and a black turtle neck with white duck tape “bones” makes a quick and easy skeleton costume. Or, use silver duck tape to make a “Terminator” skeleton.
4. Duck tape mirrors all over yourself. You will either look like The Invisible Man or like everyone else at the party.
3. Duck tape two boxes to your shoulders tall enough to match the top of your head. Pull a turtle neck over them, and put on a sport coat. You are now “Headless Guy.”
2. Duck Tape Biker: Cover your pants and jacket in black Duck tape, Duck tape a set of handlebars into your hands and your “Ol’ Lady” to your back. A black or brown Duck tape toupee (complete with “duck tail” flip in the back) looks like totally greased-back biker hair.
1. (Dads of teenagers will relate to this costume idea.) Cover yourself with silver Duck tape and hang a twenty dollar bill out of your mouth. Presto! You’ve become the Human ATM!

SOME GOOD PRANKS
- Dress up like a bunny rabbit. Yell and curse from the moment you open the door, and angrily throw the candy at the trick-or-treaters. Slam the door when you’re finished
- Give away something other than candy. (Toothpicks, golf balls, bags of sand, etc.)
- Wait behind the door until some people come. When they get near the door, jump out, wearing a costume, and holding a bag, and yell, “Trick or Treat!” Look at them, scratch your head, and act confused.
- Fill a briefcase with marbles and crackers. Write on it, “Top Secret” in big letters. When trick-or-treaters come, look around suspiciously, say, “It’s about time you got here,” give them the briefcase, and quickly shut the door.
- Get about 30 people to wait in your living room. When trick-or-treaters come to the door, say, “Come in.” When they do, have everyone yell, “Surprise!!!” Act like it’s a surprise party.
- Get everyone who comes to the door to come in and see if they can figure out what’s wrong with your dishwasher. Insist that it makes an unnatural “whirring” sound.
- After you give them candy, hand the trick-or-treaters a bill.
- Open the door dressed as a giant fish. Immediately collapse, and don’t move or say anything until the trick-or-treaters go away.
- When you answer the door, hold up one candybar, throw it out into the street, and yell, “Crawl for it!”
- When you answer the door, look at the trick-or-treaters, act shocked and scared, and start screaming your head off. Slam the door and runaround the house, screaming until they go away.
- Insist that the trick-or-treaters each do ten push-ups before you give them any candy.
- Hand out menus to the trick-or-treaters and let them order their candy. Keep asking if anyone wants to see the wine list.
- Get a catapult. Sit on your porch and catapult pumpkins at anyone who comes within 50 yards of your house.
- When people come to the door, jump out a nearby window, crashing through the glass, and run as far away from your house as you can.
- Answer the door dressed as a pilgrim. Stare at the trick-or-treaters for a moment, pretend to be confused, and start flipping through a calendar.
- Instead of candy, give away colored eggs. If anyone protests, explain that the eggs are the only thing you had left over from Easter.
- Answer the door dressed as a dentist. Angrily give the trick-or-treaters a two-hour lecture on tooth decay.
- Answer the door with a mouthful of M & M’s and several half-eaten candy bars in your hands. Act surprised, and close the door. Open it again in a few seconds, and insist that you don’t have any candy.
- Hand out cigarettes and bottles of asprin.
- Put a crown on a pumpkin and put the pumpkin on a throne on your porch. Insist that all of the trick-or-treaters bow before the pumpkin.
