And if the night gets too boring, you an always light part of it on fire and run around.

Or not.

I still have a photo somewhere from when my friend Jim did that one year. Hilarity ensued. Everyone loves the flaming mummy!
I attended a costume party as a scarecrow once. One of my wife's friends, dressed as a witch, came up to me with a cigarette lighter and gave me the "Wizard of Oz" treatment. "What's the matter scarecrow, afraid of a little fire?" and promptly lit my sleeve. Took 2 pitchers of beer to put me out. I gained massive sympathy points on that one, but I was more upset about the spilt beer.
