Halloween is one of the only nights when everyday men and women let their freak flag fly. Popular costumes this year will include, Octo-mom, Michael Jackson, Amy Winehouse, and Kate Plus 8. The night life scene will most likely be filled with women dressed as scantily clad school girls, French maids, fairies, and playboy bunnies. For women, it’s a racy costume contest, and the winner always has the least amount of clothing on. Men on the other hand, will be fully dressed as Batman, the Joker, Hugh Hefner or Michael Moore.
