Last weekend Halloween was celebrated in the US. Mostly it's a holiday for the kids who do their "Trick or Treat". In New York all the shops had stocked up on sweets and dressed up children with their parents walked around to fill their bags.

But even the grown ups celebrate and it's a real adventure to see all the costume clad people filling the city. On 6th Avenue there is a parade in the evening but you can see imaginative costumes almost anywhere. And far from everybody is dressed as something scary.

Some of the inventive things I saw was three guys dressed as "Three stages of MIchael Jackson", one from Off the Wall in the 70s, one from the Jacksons with his brothers,  and one from the 80s Thriller. Another guy had built a nightstand with bedside lamp and alarm clock and all that he was wearing. When people asked he said he was a "One Night Stand".

I went with some friends to the Danger Party in Brooklyn. It was absolutely packed with people, and lots of go on the dance floor.
