Here are some funny pictures of bunny rabbit Halloween costumes. Nothing like mixing a little Easter into the spooky event, right? Although the Bugs Bunny costumes are super cute. Actually, the non-Bugs-Bunny rabbits are slightly terrifying. =) Click here to see another kid dressed up like a...
Check out these Ghostbusters Halloween costumes from the 1980s. The new, all-girl Ghostbusters movie (loved it!), ensures another generation — Generation Z! — will enjoy Ghostbusters Halloween costumes.
Amy Carter, daughter of Jimmy Carter turns 49-years-old today! Born in 167, she is one of only four Gen-Xers to live in the White House as a kid. I thought it would be fun to look back on some old pictures of her. I think these beautifully reflect a variety of trends and styles from the mid 1970s....
NOTE: When this post was first published in 2016, sources of all photos were cited via links. Some of those links are now broken or otherwise unavailable. I have no memory of Kooky Spooks costumes. I had to share the image below on Facebook just to find out exactly what was going on in the...
Check out this 1970s Halloween safety video. This is so funny! Just wait until you get to about 4 minutes, 25 seconds. “Jeremy” appears in his dangerous robot costume with legs that won’t bend. The short film is actually part 2 in a series. It was produced by a professor at the...

Today’s Gen X Halloween photo is from the late 1970s or early 1980s. It’s C-3P0, “a droid programmed for etiquette and protocol, built by the heroic Jedi Anakin Skywalker, and a constant companion to astromech R2-D2.” I don’t come across this character very often. The...

Look at these gorgeous vintage Halloween pictures from 1972! I have slowly been acquiring 35 mm slides from the 1960-90s. Specifically, anything interesting or beautiful that reflects the growing up or coming of age of Generation X. This latest purchase is one of my favorites. These images are so...
We, along with the rest of America, had these exact dining room chairs. Early American, baby, which makes George Washington right at home in 1976. It’s a Bicentennial Halloween costume!
Check out lion boy from 1966 and his kid brother Pirate. As with so many vintage pictures, it’s sometimes the things in the background that give the image its time and place. In this case the TV trays and encyclopedias. Also, if you look closely you’ll see a coffee table book on the...
Today’s photo is another Ben Cooper, flame retardant favorite: Star Wars! May the force be with you and that little clown, too. The daily Halloween photo during the month of October will also be posted to Facebook. I invite you to follow along and join the page if you haven’t already...
