I heard a funny story a few years ago about a guy with a SCI that went to a fancy dress partym over Christmas at a hotel he was staying at in London, and he went dressed as Superman. This was soon after Christopher Reeve bust his neck, and some people took offense, thinking he wasn't disabled and just taking the piss. Arguments lead to scrapping and the guy in the wheelchair and his family where thrown out of the hotel!

Attached Image: halloween2_0001.jpgAttached Image: halloween_0001.jpgHere are a couple of ideas that you can use for Halloween.

The picture of me with the black and white face, if you look close into my eyes you will notice that my lids have been painted like eyes. So when I close my eyes, these crazy freaky eyes would be staring at you (it freaked everybody out at the party) The eyes balls had been sowed onto my shirt, and they also glowed in the dark The theme to my outfit was,: I've got my eyes on you".



The other costume is of a devil. The mask was made of rubber, paint and glue. The only problem I had with it was the paint started to run with my body temperature has getting hotter through the night.



If you are not sure what you want to ware, just go to a store that carries costumes. You will have to pay a few bucks but it is worth it because Halloween is only once a year .



Anyway good luck in finding what you want to ware.
