I know Halloween is over, but it's my favorite holiday (any excuse to wear a wig!) and I just can't get enough of all things creepy, ghoulish and silly. If it were up to me, it would be acceptable to wear costumes and eat candy every day of the year. So, let's drag out the festivities with a few more images from this last week.
On the Coney Island boardwalk...
Also at Coney, live freaks and curiosities.
Speaking of freaks, heeeelp!
Even scarier, yours truly with snakes in my hair. Despite clearly being a gorgon, a traffic cop accused me of being an antelope. Antelope must have evolved quite a bit since I last checked.
Day of the Dead offerings at St. Mark's Church.
And, finally, Greenpoint at night is wonderfully dark, desolate and spooky. This is my favorite time of year to explore the city after the sun goes down...
Great photos, love the snakes in the hair! Where was it taken? Hard to believe it's November! Where did the year go?
