2 DAYS TO GO BEFORE HALLOWEEN AT THE DHC CELEBRATION

Here are today's highlights from the wildest day yet! It's all because a gang of our Halloween Countdown celebration participants broke into the wine cellar and stole 2,351 bottles of Thunderbird and passed them out to the others! Their justification was, they were bored because Halloween was still two more days away, and they needed to have a 'few' drinks to get their mind off of the agonizing wait!

Funny, The Hearer reads her wish of love and harmony to all the participants before the activities begin for the day...

Things go south immediately because everyone's drunk on their ass and acting like jackasses! The first major incident was when these knuckleheads drilled into a giant gas line!

Okay, these two were fast friends until the Thunderbird kicked in. Out of nowhere, Terror Tongue knocks Freebyrd onto the ground and comes at him with that deadly tongue!

But then Freebyrd stabs the tongue, staking it to the ground! They laughed about it and gave each other a big sloppy hug! Ten minutes later they got into another fight!

This drunk dude thought it was funny to spray soap suds into people's eyes and watch them scream in agony as the suds burned away!

One of his victims attacks with a swift kick, taking the sud meister out!

Mutant Turtle retaliates against a guy who took one of his bottles of Thunderbird...

And teaches him not to mess with a sauced Mutant Turtle!

Bombs were landing all around and nearly hit those attendees, luckily, as we would have to pay out for the mistake.

Mouse Freak freaks out a girl and tries to take her boat for a spin, but he was so drunk, he fell out and disappeared from sight.

Allen finished his Thunderbird and went for a ride on his cycle. He got distracted and was looking back when he went off a ledge and started tumbling down the hill!

Half way down he was flung off the bike and went flying! Amazingly, Allen only suffered a broken neck, ruptured spleen and chipped teeth. He'll be fine in a few months.

But the craziest thing that happened was when this guy, Super Eyeball, who was bragging he had consumed seven bottles of nectar, shot a beam, and...

It hit our celebration command center, blowing it to kingdom come! Since the celebration is nearly over, we decided that we didn't really need it for another two days anyway. So, cool!

The Dungeon Halloween Countdown Celebration, yip, yap, yahooie!

A really drunk Cecil The Sea-Sick Sea Serpent says a few unintelligible sentences before falling over on his face, making a perfect ending for today!

BEWITCHED - "A Safe And Sane Halloween" (1967)

 
The last Weenie Wednesday of this years Countdown is from Season 04, Episode 08 of
"Bewitched." 

 
This episode aired on October 26, 1967 and was called "A Safe And Sane Halloween."
It begins with Samantha reading a Halloween bedtime story to her daughter Tabitha.

In the story, there is a goblin, a gremlin and a Jack O' Lantern.

The story was supposed to put Tabitha to sleep, but sometimes she's a restless little witch.

Oops! Something seems to have happened, and the Halloween trio are no longer in the book where they are supposed to be!

Cute as a bug Tabitha is played by three year old Erin Murphy. Erin was in 102 episodes of "Bewitched," and her twin sister Diane filled in for her on 21 episodes.
Interestingly enough, the Murphy twins shared the same birthday, June 17, with Elizabeth Montgomery's real daughter Rebecca.

Samantha is going to take Tabitha out to go trick or treating, and Tabitha's new friends decide they should go along too, so they sneak out of the house.

The trio of terror follows Samantha and Tabitha around, and Samantha doesn't even notice anything strange going on. She just thinks they are more costumed kids out on a candy hunt.

In the meantime, just to make things more confusing, Gladys Kravitz's nephew Tommy is also decked out as a Jack O' Lantern.

Here's a real power trio for you, 4' 3" Jerry Maren as the Gremlin, had a career that went all the way back to "The Terror Of Tiny Town," and "The Wizard Of Oz." Jerry passed away in 2018 at the age of 98. 3' 11" Felix (She Freak) Silla as the Goblin, just passed away six months ago at the age of 84. Probably the most famous of them all is the 4' 2" Billy (Gog) Curtis as Jack O' Lantern. Billy passed away in 1988 at the age of 79. All three of them were in the 1973 film "Little Cigars."

There's confusion out in the field, and Tommy and the real Jack O' Lantern end up trading places, much to everyone's chagrin! Tommy was played by Bobby (Countdown) Riha.

A bewildered and flabbergasted Samantha finally gets the whole thing sorted out, but she doesn't have the powers to return the guys back  to the book. It's up to Tabitha.

Gladys learns the hard way that it's not Tommy underneath the sheet!

All kinds of havoc ensues when Tommy gets turned into a goat, and Samantha has to watch on helplessly!

We should do a survey, and see who had more, and better facial expressions, Lucille Ball or Elizabeth Montgomery?
 
Not only are the terrible trio full of mischief, they also have magic powers and can do things like putting a goatee on one unsuspecting lady giving out candy, smashing a hovering pie into one guy's face, or adding ears like this to Darrin.

They finally get the guys back into the book, but when they put Tabitha to bed for the night, they find this book, and think that there must be a bear loose in the house, until they notice that Tabitha is sleeping with a new stuffed animal that is a bear. Whew, close call!

After Sam and Darrin leave the room, the real bear comes out of the closet!

Baby witch Tabitha just gets a big laugh out of the whole thing. At least the title of the book was "The Friendly Grizzly Bear."

A WEEK TO GO AT THE DUNGEON HALLOWEEN COUNTDOWN CELEBRATION!

 Well, with a week to go in our celebration, things have been getting tense among the participants, and  it has to do with the wins or losses they get by the end of the event, the more wins they get the more candy they get on Halloween! Yeah, it's mostly about the freaking candy!!


But let's start with these cool costumes by some of the attendees. See, kids have a lot of creativity when it comes to those crazy looking monsters!

Like I said, it's getting tense among the participants. This tribal gang confront Fly Guy for littering at their campground!

The candy bullies are out in force, here, Mega Man tells Frogman that he'd better lose the battle in their next match, or else! He wants that candy!

The guys on the left were making fun of Music Monster, saying that, how's he going to hurt them with stupid old music anyway?.. They found out!

Did you know that we have our own Robot Copper to make sure no shenanigans by participants or attendees are allowed. I mean, we gotta have one of those, it looks cool, right?!

Robot Copper usually takes care of business without incident but this time his software recognized the wrong robot dude (damn, they all look alike!). We had to pay for his repairs.

This cute witch chick retaliates against her losses!..

She lost twice to these guys and she's pissed because they get her share of the candy!!

There was some fun/funny stuff going on too, like this foot race. The guy wearing the dragon head bet the other runners that he could beat them in a race wearing the costume! And he won!!

These guys are demonstrating the advantages of using a Magno-Fist against your opponent! It was pretty funny when the battery died.

After these three jerks trapped an attendee under their huge spider web net, they weren't sure what to do next.

Allen and his biker buddies decided to jump their bikes into a big puddle of water...

And then spin doughnuts in the water until they all fall down from dizziness!

By the way, The Dungeon has a washing station for just such an occasion. 

And it works great for getting a quick wash for the discriminate participant.

These Electric Mimes were trying to tell us something, but who in the Hell knows what they were trying to get across, jeez!

And there was a huge scare! Those same idiots that blew up the candy/explosives shed at the beginning of the event, well, they almost blew it up again!! Missed hitting it by 7 feet, phew!!
