Halloween in February

When Halloween happens there are too many Halloween photos posted. It's hard to digest them all. So, in honor of me (and evidently
literaticat) being home sick and bored, I am asking you to post your favorite halloween photo of yourself. As a kid, as an adult, heck even your fave of your kids... amuse me until my next Netflix comes.
My best Halloweens have been when I dressed in group themes. St Patrick's Day was the best but photos of that just look like we're American-born Irish on St Patrick's Day. If I get
jactitation's permission, I will post the one of us dressed as space aliens but looking like rotting leftovers.
The photo below is from 1986. Our group theme was the '70s (though neither of the other guys pictures were part of that). I was an 8-track tape of Frampton Comes Alive which, if you lived though that time period, you know was everywhere. I hadn't finished my costume, but I had a wide piece of felt that went from shoulder to shoulder resting on my head to symbolize the "tape" part of the 8 track. I can't remember what everyone else was but we had a drag disco dancer and a Qualude. I remember being impressed that the Qualude person knew that their costume had to say "Lemon 714".

I copied the cover art myself from memory. Can you tell? while not identical, I think it captures the spirit of the original cover.
