Question about Halloween Party (costume restrictions)
Posted: Sun Aug 07, 2016 7:00 am
So, this year we'll be going to the Halloween Party and have been already trying to gather stuff for our costumes. However, I just read the Guidelines on the Halloween page and some things are not entirely clear to me.
For example, they may refuse costumes that are too "offensive or inappropriate". Is that like extremely shocking costumes and gore?
I was thinking about going as a male version from Harley Quinn from the Suicide Squad movie. It's basically just a red/blue swim trunks (yes they are tight and look like boxer shorts). A white baseball shirt that says Daddy's Lil Monster and some white face powder with blue and red eye shadow and some temporary tattoos on my arms and legs (nothing obscene though). Would that be considered TOO offensive or inappropriate?
I was thinking about an inflatable Bat. The guidelines state: "may not contain any weapons that resemble or could easily be mistaken for an actual weapon." and "acceptable accessories include: transparent wings, plastic light sabers, toy swords, and tutus.".
My boyfriend wants to go as Darkwing Duck. With a HUGE hat. Would that be allowed? He's also considering a purple mask that covers the eyes or a purple piece of cloth like a bandana sorta style. Would that be allowed, as the guidelines state "headwear may be worn as long as it does not cover the face" and "may not wear masks of any kind"?
Anyone who works or worked there or goes there often knows how strict they are with these guidelines or if our costumes could cause problems?
Any help would be appreciated and welcome.

So no mask for Darkwing, but maybe some purple paint around the eyes might be acceptable?
