Trick-or-Treat: The Kimball Hughes PR Team’s Favorite Halloween Memories

From pumpkin patches to iconic costumes, the Kimball Hughes PR team knows how to do Halloween right and to celebrate the spooky season, we’d like to share some of our team’s favorite memories around the holiday.

Eileen: Several years back, my three boys dressed up as The Three Amigos – Dusty Bottoms, Lucky Day and Ned Nederlander – for Halloween. It remains one of my favorite Halloween memories. The comedy classic is regularly quoted in our house and the sombreros from these costumes will likely clutter my basement for years to come.

Rod: My childhood Halloween costumes were always homemade by my Mom. The Wizard of Oz held my attention as a young boy, so one of my early Halloween costumes was the beloved Scarecrow. I had some terrific PTSD when I saw Wicked on Broadway in New York many years later.

Cassidy: Halloween quickly became a favorite holiday in my household growing up as my mother hand made every costume with a passion. This was the year of the leopard, which became appropriate when I became a Lafayette College Leopard years later.

Bianca: One of my favorite Halloween activities as a kid was visiting the pumpkin patch. Ahead of trick-or-treating, I’d go with my siblings and cousins to pick out pumpkins, travel through the corn maze, eat apple cider donuts and ride the haunted hayride.

Logan: Last year, my sisters and I dressed up as the Power Puff Girls and even got our brother-in-law in on it (he dressed as the professor). This year my fiancé and I are going as Mark S. and Helly R. from Severance, one of our favorite shows.

John: As a fan of sideshow performers, I loved getting to dress up as Jo-Jo the Dog-Faced Boy. Though be warned, being Jo-Jo for a night wasn’t easy because having real human hair glued to your face is itchy!
