This year the end of daylight savings time is Nov. 1, so on Halloween night we get to set our clocks back one hour. Technically it's supposed to end at 2 a.m. but I say when the clock strikes 12 on Halloween night we move our clocks back to 11 and hit the witching hour twice!

Can life get any better than that???

Hmmm need to check when the clock gets turned back here in europe.

Whooo Hooooo anytime i can get extra halloween in any form is great by me. Two witching hours? Now i gotta build another witch for my stirring witch prop.

 

[TK421]

I can't wait! I've got so much to do.

25 hours for Halloween! It just keeps getting better and better!!

 

[Baron Samedi]

I think Ruggerz is right..it's the 25th October here in Europe.

Never mind..It'll just save me from having to put away the haunt with a bigger than usual hangover.

 

[Junit]

Sounds like a plan!

 

[Lot27]

Wonderful news. Post of the year award? lol

 

[JustaBunchOfHocusPocus]

Woo Hoo!! I'm so happy! Yay! Another hour of Halloween! I'm going to celebrate tonight and watch The Shining!

 

[UknowMyname]

personally i would have liked to have DST start the week before halloween.

it would be soo much better to start scaring at 5:00 instead of waiting till 6:00 for it to get dark =/

dunno. an extra hour of halloween isnt exactly horrible tho

 

[Sychoclown]

Yeah so what I cried a little when I read that. Doesn't make me less of a man.

Hallow... I recall a time when the city I lived in would not allow Halloween Trick or Treating to be held on Saturday or Sunday night! The town made the 2 hour mandatory treating start on a day or two prior to the real thing and then made it worse by setting the start at 5 PM. It never got dark! This happened in the 70's in upstate NY. Guess Woodstock caused the town elders to fear the worst on a weekend! Thank goodness 2009 is a full weekend of haunting!! Plus Daylight Savings Time -- Who could ask for anything more!! BOO!

 

[Pumpkin Torture Guy]

Two witching hours? I'm good with that.

 

[HallowSusieBoo]

Then there's that final hour. . .

Two witching hours? I'm good with that.

When nothing else matters but to climb out of a sweaty costume, crash in a comfy chair and raise a Creepy-tini to your lips in gratitude! BOO!

 

[Halloweeeiner]

thats awesome, didn't even know that!

 

[S1n1sterTech]

i forgot all about DLS time

 

[Bubbels]

That is pretty cool.. So does that mean that if you close down ToTs at 9 PM.. that you would stay open until 10PM ?

 

[dpolking]

Still I wish they would put our fall back an hour to the weekend BEFORE Halloween! It used to be dark by 6pm now it doesn't happen until 7pm GRRR!

Civil twighlight for me is:

Burton, MI:
Sunset 6:28 p.m.
End civil twilight 6:57 p.m.

No but we have the advantage of it being darker much earlier on halloween.

Which i'd rather. 2am halloween night may technically be Nov 1st, but nobody pays attention to it being a new day until you wake up anyway.

By 2am i'll be extremely drunk in a bar and continuing my great halloween night!

That's really cool UknowMyname! The moon's going to be 95% full here on Halloween. How cool is that???
