When the endearing characters of Busytown put on their costumes for a Halloween party, you'll never guess who is scaring whom. Color illustrations throughout.
A Whimsical array of ghosts and goblins, spooks and skeletons, animals and nursery-room characters parade through this unparalleled collection of more than one hundred years of American Halloween costumes and masquerade. Photographer Phyllis Galembo approaches her subjects with the delight and wonder of one who has discovered an entire cast of characters backstage in an abandoned theater. Through her lens, the costumes rise from the dead to once again dance, play, and amuse. Ranging from handmade to store-bought, satin to polyester, the masks, wigs, and costumes, whether recognizable figures or obscure, pique our childhood memories. In her celebration of Halloween revelry, Galembo never settles for the ordinary; instead she creates evocative scenes of dressed-to-scare young trick-or-treaters "modeling" their disguises and of undead spirits haunting their surroundings. The costumes, which span over a century, take on magical qualities through fanciful sets and specialized lighting effects. Accompanying the costumes is a history of this always-popular holiday and essays discussing Galembo's inspirations and techniques. Through her art, Galembo allows us to act out our youthful fantasies of transformation -- to become, or at least observe, what we most want to be: free of inhibitions, of fixed notions of identity. Her images make us laugh and dream and maybe even believe in ghosts. Book jacket.

The invitation arrived in an ornate envelope, adorned with intricate patterns that seemed to dance in the flickering candlelight. It was an invitation to the annual Halloween masquerade at the sprawling estate of the reclusive Montgomery family. Rumors swirled around the mansion, tales of eerie occurrences that had haunted the estate for generations. Nevertheless, the allure of the masquerade was irresistible, drawing guests from far and wide. As the clock struck eight on the night of All Hallows' Eve, a cavalcade of masked figures descended upon the Montgomery estate. The air buzzed with excitement and anticipation, masked faces concealing whispered excitement and nervousness. Among the guests was Amelia, a curious and adventurous soul who was drawn to the enigmatic allure of the Montgomery mansion. She wore a stunning masquerade mask adorned with shimmering silver filigree, a treasured family heirloom passed down through generations. The grand ballroom was aglow with candlelight, casting eerie shadows on the walls adorned with ancient tapestries. A table groaned under the weight of delectable treats while a string quartet played haunting melodies that echoed through the halls. Amelia mingled with the guests, admiring the intricate masks adorning their faces. Her attention, however, was captured by a mask on display atop a velvet pedestal.
The beloved and award-winning novel now available in a new format with a great new cover! When Wesley Boone writes a poem for his high school English class, some of his classmates clamor to read their poems aloud too. Soon they're having weekly poetry sessions and, one by one, the eighteen students are opening up and taking on the risky challenge of self-revelation. There's Lupe Alvarin, desperate to have a baby so she will feel loved. Raynard Patterson, hiding a secret behind his silence. Porscha Johnson, needing an outlet for her anger after her mother OD's. Through the poetry they share and narratives in which they reveal their most intimate thoughts about themselves and one another, their words and lives show what lies beneath the skin, behind the eyes, beyond the masquerade.
In its conventional meaning, masquerade refers to a festive gathering of people wearing masks and elegant costumes. But traditional forms of masquerade have evolved over the past century to include the representation of alternate identities in the media and venues of popular culture, including television, film, the internet, theater, museums, sports arenas, popular magazines and a range of community celebrations, reenactments and conventions. This collection of fresh essays examines the art and function of masquerade from a broad range of perspectives. From African slave masquerade in New World iconography, to the familiar Guy Fawkes masks of the Occupy Wall Street movement, to the branded identities created by celebrities like Madonna, Beyonce and Lady Gaga, the essays show how masquerade permeates modern life.
To Carl and his young charge, a masquerade party proves an irresistible invitation to fun.
