Title: What're your characters doing for halloween?

Are they young enough to trick-or-treat? Are they from England and feeling nostalgic for bonfire night instead? Are they going to a costume party? Staying home and handing out candy? If they're dressing up - what as? Where to?
What d'you think?

Angeline dressing as the least magical thing she can come with and taking her kid trick-or-treating at the mall. Then she's going home to hand out candy and hoping that everyone who comes to her door will actually be in costume.
Diane's plans involve looking for some party or at least somewhere that's giving free shooters to people in costumes, and then probably lurking in some graveyard in the hope that something interesting shows up. She's being a goth faerie.
Tats, on the other hand, is planning on hitchhiking from Saint John to the border.
But what I really want to know is - what's Death doing?

Dionis would be presiding over Halloween raves, especially at the Warehouse. Ronnie would probably go for a walk and pretend he wasn't watching over the kids (and checking out the decorations), though he might get spotted by someone who didn't realize he was back in town and dragged off to a party.
Dana would either be working at the library (she'd make decorations, and have candy out for people who were leaving and promised not to get it on the books), or at home serving trick-or-treaters. Duck would be at a party (possibly Dionis's), and Deo would probably be at home watching a movie marathon and studying.
I can see Dionis dressing up as oldschool satyr Pan, or as a wood nymph or something attractively mythological. It would involve a lot of glitter and gauze, and possibly mesh wings. Duck would manage to do something shirtless and easy, though there might be body paint involved. ("I'm a blank canvas! Paint me! Here, let me take my pants off to make it easier.") Dana might incorporate the bracers into a knight costume, and pull back her hair and crossdress. (Deo and Ronnie wouldn't dress up, though Ronnie would wear all black and possibly be mistaken by a small child for a ninja.)

Tam is... well, I dunno what Tam is doing. Much of that would depend on what Kristopher is doing. He's probably out somewhere doing jelly shots.
Jessie is sitting at home with a big bowl of candy, trying not to eat it all before the kids come to the door and glumly pondering her swollen ankles. She's probably also deep-breathing to try and induce labour. She'll answer the door in sparkly devil horns and let parents use her as a warning about premarital sex.
Joey, meanwhile, will be having a whale of a time. She'll dress up in her dinky skeleton costume and go out trick-or-treating with a few of her foster siblings. And the morning after is the start of Day of the Dead celebrations; during which people invade cemeteries and try and wake up Death (who is probably in a sugar coma somewhere).

I love it when the internet eats my posts! Let's try this again.
Dacia would toy with the idea of going as a werewolf, but then probably end up scrounging something out of her closet. And not looking much different than she does every day.
And then she would go to a party on campus somewhere, and get stared at strangely for being the only girl fully clothed. (College halloween parties = girls in teeny outfits!
