A Trip to Okotoks: Halloween 2009


I have a confession. I have never been out to a Halloween party in my life. Luckily for me, neither has my friend, Kaori. Our adult Halloween experience has always consisted of handing out candy to the trick-or-treaters, maybe watching a dvd then maybe going to bed early. Fast forward to 2009. I think this year was the year that we really went out and made up for the fun that we missed.

This all started with a Facebook message from Kaori, saying that she has never dressed up for Halloween. I was surprised at her message, imagining another person that has never really experienced the magic of this wonderful holiday. I knew now that our mission to have a great first Halloween experience.


A few days before, I had an invitation from Sue (see, “A Trip to Indian Graves”) to a party at a pub in Okotoks. It was her aunt’s place. Knowing it’s never a dull moment with Sue, I was game. So I called Kaori up and it was time to find a costume!


Kaori went all out on shopping day, ending up with 2 outfits. We figured that she could always use the one she didn’t wear next year. So this year, Kaori the Witch was ready to party with the Expendable Crewman from Star Trek. I’m hoping I will be there for Kaori the sexy maid next year!




This video is the chronicle of our adventures. I’ll warn you now that there is crude language, drinking, recreational drug use and an 80’s cover band. Hope you all had a great Halloween, whether you partied (responsibly) or did the candy thing. Enjoy the video!
