The scarecrow Alberto made to try and scare people once it got dark. Orange trees in the background
A witch (Lulu), the girl from The Exorcist (Ceci), a vampire (Barby), another witch (Patri), and a zombie (me)
Zombie again (me), a skeleton (Alberto), a ghost (Juan), and the Exorcist girl again (Ceci)
Note the low ceilings of the cave house behind us...saw quite a few head bumps that night
You'll notice that Halloween here is still all about scary costumes. If you're going to dress up, you pretty much dress up either as one of the above "scary" things or you paint your face white and red to make yourself look dead and bloody. Spaniards haven't yet arrived at the point that we Americans have where your costume can be anything you want and young people typically make their costumes with as little clothing as possible. I actually kinda prefer the Spanish version...
