I dress up ALL the time.
Hey if you haven’t read this before, its new to you …. I have a confession to make. Halloween is my least favorite holiday. There I said it, its now out in the open. But my reasons for disliking Halloween might surprise you.
First of all, it is not because I consider Halloween something sinister. A brief check into an encyclopedia or even wikipedia will confirm the eerie origins of All Hallow’s Eve. However I prefer to believe that God is in control all 365 days of the year. Frankly I am not going to give even one day to the devil.
Halloween is about ready to beat out Christmas for over commercialization. Just this morning I saw gingerbread HAUNTED houses on display. I freaked out when the perennial Easter favorite of Peeps started making Peep ghosts, but haunted houses made of gingerbread? How do they know its haunted I wonder?
Plus Halloween makes me feel like Rodney Dangerfield, I just don’t get no respect. As a family friendly Greenville, SC entertainer I dress up year round. Sometimes I dress as a jester for a birthday party, sometimes I am the Tie Dye Balloon Guy for a library show, and sometimes I am a clown for a fall festival. You may even find me dressed up as a banana at a Greenville bank for a singing telegram. But around Halloween, dressing up is suddenly normal. I guess that is my main problem, I don’t like being normal.
But there are still plenty of things that I do like about Halloween. First of all there is candy, then there is candy, and not to mention … candy! And lots of schools and churches are doing fall festivals and booking Joy Set Entertainment for their performer needs. Come see what we can do for you at http://www.joyset.com/holidays/
