Halloween for kids
is all about princesses,
jack-o’-lanterns, and
sugar-fuelled frenzies. As
adults, we get our kicks
by getting hammered
on Red Bull and vodka
at the local fetish night
and heading home with
our main squeeze (or
flavour of the week) for
a little bit of festive, evil
rowdiness. Halloween is
the one night of the year
where the shy girl can
dress like a harlot, where
it’s socially acceptable
to let the kinks out of
the closet, and when

our boring lives can be
transformed with a bit
of glitter and fishnets.
There’s a cool bite
in the air, grocery
store aisles are packed
high with fun-sized
candy bars, and your
neighbourhood pop-up
costume store is burst-
ing at the seams with a
veritable smorgasbord
of lace-and-PVC riddled,
sexed-up versions of
Halloween classics. The
princess trades her ball
gown for a corset, the
jack-o’-lantern gets filled
with free condoms, and
maybe the sugar-fuelled
frenzy turns into Jaeger-
bomb-fuelled fuck fest.
But when the lights
go out and the sexy
Stormtrooper costume
is in a white Spandex
heap on the floor, you
might just find that you
and your partner are
in the sexiest costume
possible: your own skin.

hear them? Voice recording
apps record straight

to your phone with no
complications. With options
such as Share, you'll be able
to keep a track of your daily
schedule with voice memos.
And for music students, this
app comes handy whenever
you need those notes to be
on pitch.

And that’s when it can
get really exciting.
Maybe there’s noth-
ing sexy about brain-
munching zombies, but
other ghouls are firmly
entrenched in the cultural
canon of kink. Take vam-
pires for instance. Even
Anne Rice’s Victorian
style vampires ooze sex
appeal, and the vamps
in television’s True Blood
are nothing short of jaw-
droppingly humpable.
So maybe you and your
sweetie can play vampire
on Halloween. Suck face
to your heart’s content
and do the nasty like
you're immortal—if you
don’t want neck hickeys,
try the inner thigh. Or
maybe werewolves are
your thing, because let’s
face it: there’s something
hot about a guy who’s
totally normal 28 days
out of the month and
then turns into a wild
animal during the full

moon. Take this special
opportunity to just go
crazy on each other.

Or maybe you'd
rather be realistic about
your fantasies. Maybe
Halloween would be a
good time to approach
your lover (or crush)
about a sexual desire
that’s been weighing
on your mind. Instead
of investing in a $60
costume, you could buy
a $10 length of rope and
just wear that in the
bedroom. The possibili-
ties are as endless as your
twisted mind is. We don’t
get many opportunities
to play hard as adults.
Halloween is one of those
unique moments in our
lives where we can be
whoever we want to be.
So break out the whip
and ball-gag, pick a safe
word, and remember
to have a crazy, sexy,
consensual time.

 

5. Tetris —iOS ($0.99)/
Android (Free): While
you're waiting at the bus,
why not keep your brain
healthy and flowing? A
classic game, Tetris may
look simple, but don’t let
its appearance fool you!
See how far you can go and
compare your scores with
your friends. Perhaps you'll
be the next Tetris King?
