Too early for Halloween?

Heatwave Man ?

We just ticked September (Northern California heat wave!) and Henry is already sifting through his costumes. Last year, he went through 7 different configurations on Halloween night... scaring the BEJEEZUS out of trick-or-treaters on our haunted porch with his various accessories (fangs, masks, reversible cape, fog machine, microphone/amp rig, spiderman gloves, etc.)

We actually had to apologize to a girl from school the next day at school for scaring a bit too much.

So this year I was hoping he'd settle for his already-proven Count Hankula collection but he's angling for new Halloween costumes, including Spiderman and some brand of demonic race car driver. I don't want to build the Mach 5 out of cardboard, so I might be able to steer him towards something with a Light Sabre instead, in which case we'll have Darth Vader on our hands.
