As I was going up the stair, I met a man who wasn’t there/He wasn’t there again today…Oh, how I wish he’d go away.

A grandmother pretends she doesn’t know who you are on Halloween.
Erma Bombeck
Ask not what your Pumpkin can do for you, ask what you can do for your pumpkin.
I’ll bet living in a nudist colony takes all the fun out of Halloween.
One need not be a chamber to be haunted; One need not be a house; The brain has corridors surpassing Material place.
Emily Dickinson
Charlie Brown is the one person I identify with. C.B. is such a loser. He wasn’t even the star of his own Halloween special.
Chris Rock
On Hallowe’en the thing you must do/ Is pretend that nothing can frighten you /And if somethin’ scares you and you want to run/ Just let on like it’s Hallowe’en fun
Clothes make a statement. Costumes tell a story.
Mason Coole
As spirits roam the neighborhoods at night,
Let loose upon the Earth till it be light…

Eat, drink and be scary.
Everyone is a moon and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody.
Mark Twain

Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder’s fork, and blind-worm’s sting, Lizard’s leg, and owlet’s wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
William Shakespeare
Witch and ghost make merry on this last of dear October’s days.
Fear has many eyes and can see things underground.

Hold on, man. We don’t go anywhere with “scary,” “spooky,” “haunted,” or “forbidden” in the title.
This Halloween the most popular mask is the Arnold Schwarzenegger mask. And the best part? With a mouth full of candy you will sound just like him.
Conan O’Brien
I bet living in a nudist colony takes all the fun out of Halloween.
Those seemingly interminable dark walks between houses, long before street-lit safety became an issue, were more adrenalizing than the mountains of candy filling the sack. Sadly Halloween, with our good-natured attempts to protect the little ones, from the increasingly dangerous traffic and increasingly sick adults, has become an utter bore.
Lauren Springer
If a man harbors any sort of fear, it makes him landlord to a ghost.
Lloyd Douglas

Just like a ghost, you’ve been a-hauntin’ my dreams,
So I’ll propose on Halloween.
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you.
Once in a young lifetime one should be allowed to have as much sweetness as one can possibly want and hold.

There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls.
George Carlin
Shadows of a thousand years rise again unseen,
Voices whisper in the trees, “Tonight is Halloween!”
Dexter Kozen
Shadows of a thousand years rise again unseen,

There is something haunting in the light of the moon; it has all the dispassionateness of a disembodied soul, and something of its inconceivable mystery.
Joseph Conrad
There is nothing that gives more assurance than a mask.
Colette

Auld Daddy Darkness creeps frae his hole,
Black as a blackamoor, blin’ as a mole….
James Ferguson
Of calling shapes, and beck’ning shadows dire,
And airy tongues that syllable men’s names.
John Milton
Acting is like a Halloween mask that you put on.
River Phoenix
True love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about but few have seen.
They that are born on Halloween shall see more than other folk.
Being in a band you can wear whatever you want – it’s like an excuse for Halloween everyday.
Gwen Stefani
On Halloween, witches come true;
Wild ghosts escape from dreams.
Each monster dances in the park….
Nicholas Gordon
A house is never still in darkness to those who listen intently; there is a whispering in distant chambers, an unearthly hand presses the snib of the window, the latch rises. Ghosts were created when the first man awoke in the night.
J.M. Barrie
May Jack-o-lanterns burning bright
Of soft and golden hue
Pierce through the future’s veil and show
What fate now holds for you.
On Hallowe’en the thing you must do
Is pretend that nothing can frighten you
And if somethin’ scares you and you want to run
Just let on like it’s Hallowe’en fun.

Proof of our society’s decline is that Halloween has become a broad daylight event for many.
Robert Kirby
Hark! Hark to the wind! ‘Tis the night, they say,
When all souls come back from the far away-
The dead, forgotten this many a day!
Virna Sheard
I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself than be crowded on a velvet cushion. Henry David Thoreau
When black cats prowl and pumpkins gleam,
May luck be yours on Halloween.
There is nothing that gives more assurance than a mask.
Colette
Nothing beats a haunted moonlit night on All Hallows Eve…. And on this fatal night, at this witching time, the starless sky laments black and unmoving. The somber hues of an ominous, dark forest are suddenly illuminated under the emerging face of the full moon.
Kim Elizabeth
Look, there’s no metaphysics on earth like chocolates.
Fernando Pessoa
Forget love – I’d rather fall in chocolate!

After eating chocolate you feel godlike, as though you can conquer enemies, lead armies, entice lovers.
