MWUHUHUHUHUHUHUHAAAAAAA

Greetings, Mumsnetters, put down your brooms for a second as it's time for this year's Halloween name-change competition!

To take part and be in with a chance of winning a mystery, spooktacular prize, then:

Change your username to something Halloween-y and preferably very amusing. Puns especially welcome.
Post on the thread stating your original username.
As we are a touch late this year , there won't be time for the usual poll, so instead, MNHQ will pick the winner on Monday 31st.

Fangs a lot and good luck.

Here's my name change... I'm usually SansaClegane!
Wanted to stick to my regular name a bit, so I came up with this gem; hope the pun doesn't go unnoticed!

Was drspouse, now drspook.

FlouncingEmbelishesHaloween · 30/10/2016 20:14

Usually something on the flounce theme ever since I did a proper dereg flounce. Most recently FlouncingIntoAutumn. I've always thought of flouncing as a mumsnet hissy fit but when googling haloween costumes (I know too much time on my hands) I came across a statement flouncing for embelishing of haloween costumes, it tickled me.

abatcalledjohn · 30/10/2016 19:40

Meetyhags · 30/10/2016 19:08

TimTamTerror · 30/10/2016 17:39

OnePlanOnHouzz · 30/10/2016 17:18

I wanted to change mine to InPainAndHowels - but I'm on the app and don't know how to change it !!

ShriekOutWithTheFreakOutCrowd · 30/10/2016 16:45

Normally post as the prim and mannerly OutwiththeOutCrowd - who wouldn't say boo to a gosling - but sometimes, when the purple haze of twilight arrives, strange bristles start sprouting all over me and my canine teeth elongate dramatically. At that point the corset just has to come off and my nocturnal adventures begin ....

BlackNo1 · 30/10/2016 16:31

Forgot to add my user .
ample.

BOOsterCogburn · 30/10/2016 15:47
