But i do not think I like either one of them.... I have been thinking of Edgar Allen Poe's poem for invitations but I am not sure how to do so.... what do you guys think?? ANYONE?

i like this part especially, do you have a theme? edgar allen poe has lots of creepy lines which can be used too. good luck

I like the idea of putting the Poe twist to the invite. How about starting with a simple quote and then following up with the details for the party

example:
"Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before."-Edgar Allan Poe
Enter the darkness with us on Halloween night, don't be scared, embrace the fright,etc etc

ex:
"The boundaries which divide Life from Death are at best shadowy and vague. Who shall say where the one ends, and where the other begins? "Edgar Allan Poe

ex:
"I have, indeed, no abhorrence of danger, except in its absolute effect - in terror."
Edgar Allan Poe
Then just follow up with your own little poem.

My sister and I were going to use the 50's dead theme. but we change it and decide it would be more fun if everyone comes as whatever they want.

 

[NOWHINING]

I love that poe poem you were coming up with!!!! I think I need to re-read the poem to refresh my mind and then see what i come up with..

 

[NOWHINING]

how about this?????

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I ponder, weak and weary, over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, I came upon this invitation, from my books surcease of sorrow.

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, and dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token.

I implore you, will you come to the Halloween Party on October 31st, 2009?

Ooo! Good one Nowhining...
but how about the Law office of Secksfeat and Under. I just love play on words.

Okay...how about this:

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over this quaint and curious Halloween invitation some more,
I just wondered, really puzzled, what to have for party trappings,
As the inspiration moved me, I spread it all out on the floor.
‘Buckys, bones and FCG’s’, I muttered, ‘Webs and Spiders for my door –
All of this and much much more.’


This would look good on parchment and done with calligraphy. Followed up with the rest of your party info.

Try this for example-

A simple piece of parchment paper folded in half within an envelope. The outside of the paper is simply stamped with a raven. Inside the invite it reads the following:

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'

Ooo! Good one Nowhining...
but how about the Law office of Secksfeat and Under. I just love play on words.

I am not good with words. I think it is the deafness in me that dont get how words goes together...

Law office of Deadbone, Deadzone and Deadjone

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I ponder weak and weary, over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, I promise you this, it is not a bore.

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, and dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token.

I implore you; will you come to the Halloween Party on October 31st, 2009?

Put a nice picture on front with this poem....note I did change only a few words

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
'Tis my visitors,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'

Then inside put will you be my visitor?
Date time address etc.
Or instead of "visitor" you can put "victim"

 

[NOWHINING]
