While wearing a Halloween costume, should you stay in the character for most of the time?

Question

What does your rulebook say?

Answer 1

My rule book says, if your trick-or-treating, stay in character when you go to someones door, its just more fun that way. I am more likely to give an extra piece of candy to those who are playing the part and deserve it.

Answer 2

No. Just get into character when you arrive at the door and ask for candy. Nothing worse than opening door to a bunch of freaks who just mildly say, "Trick or treat?" But when you're sitting on a bus or on the sofa, be yourself. You don't want to scare the fish.

Answer 3

Yeah, If you're hot you can take the mask(or Cape or something) off for a little,but try to keep the costume on when People come by.

Answer 4

Halloween is,
The festival that all devils offends,
celebrated he should not be,
the deads deserve respect,
and by them a feast one must do.

2 of November,Dia de los muertos

Of the Calaca nobody is saved,
I have come for his souls,this day,
2 of November is my day
I want to see you in the graveyard,

I come for canijos of Yahoo Answers,
the ones that always + 2 answer,
and to the ones that the bad knack they show,
to politics and strikers, to religious and racist

Two of November, is my day,
and is the day in which the souls visit,
all beloved familiars and others, your
gonna be the next who dead, and a cold stone on you remained.

The death is the solution of your problems,
you do not give death to you, at any moment I arrive,
I carry your soul al panteon to rest and of your conflicts to forget,
but all has price, you can't love, anymore
to be a soul in grief, and by your acts punished to be,

Be afraid, that I the death have arrived,
Do not believe to anybody side,
that the all powerful gentlemen upper and down
all they observe it, all they know it, all they see it,
I am a servant of both, and to
the orders of both I obey,

Of the death nobody is saved
Lady of eternal life, takes my hand and you will see,
the kindnesses of the death you will receive.

2 of November is my day, celebrate it, since to someone wanted to recall.

Answer 5

Of course! It's so much more fun that way. The point of Halloween is to get to pretend to be something you're not.

Answer 6

don't be the first one to break character at a party unless you're uncomfortable. don't sacrifice comfort even if you've got a particularly impressive costume.

Answer 7

A friend of mine went to a party as Harpo Marx (sp?) and she didn't talk all night ... all she did was honk her horn. Funny!
